Out of Time OOC

Hook
It is the year 900, during the waning days of the Age of Immortals. The evil wizard Malegoth has been slowly rising in power. The adventurers of this age, as of yet, were not powerful enough to stop him. But there was one group who had been training with the elves, hunting down powerful monsters to prepare, and now finally, they were ready. These heroes, equipped with knowledge and blessings granted by the elves set out with the goal of stopping him, and had finally found his tower, and knew they would only have one chance to stop him.

You are one of these heroes. The months and years you have spent hunting gigantic monsters has led you to this moment. What could, potentially, be the final moments of your life. It is now the night before the final dawn, a deep fear that seemed to cling to the hearts of you and your companions continues to rise, trying to fight against your spirits. What happens if you fail? What happens if Malegoth is simply too powerful? These are questions you don't yet have the answer for, but you know it's too late to turn back now. In only a few hours the sun will rise, and you must be ready to face the evil wizard.

General Character Creation Rules
System: 4e
Level 11
Stats: 25pt buy. (rather than 4e's default 22)
Race: Any published, refluffed as human, elf, orc, or dwarf (or any combination of two e.g. half orc/elf, half dwarf/human, etc.).
Class: Any published.
Feats: Choice of free expertise feat.
Themes: Allowed.
Background: +2 to a skill or add a language.
Equipment: One level 11 item, one level 12 item, and one level 10 item, as well as 5000 gold to spend on adventuring supplies or another magic item(s).
Skills: There are no class skill restrictions; any class can train any skill. You still must take the mandatory/bonus skills granted by your class as usual (e.g. Arcana for a wizard). Also, if after class selection (and prior to race, feat, theme, etc. selection) you possess fewer than 4 trained skills, train as many as it takes to get to 4.
Rituals: Component costs for all rituals are reduced to ¼ their normal values to encourage ritual use. Also, Raise Dead will not be allowed in this game – dead is dead, though we hope that doesn’t have to be an issue.
Inherent Bonuses: No.
Hybrids: In any game I run, you will be allowed to take the feat "Hybrid Talent" as many times as you like as a hybrid character. I feel like this helps make up for the fact that most hybrids are incredibly sub-par, and it allows for some really interesting combinations if you look hard enough. The CB does not allow for this option by default, though, so you will need to house-rule it and keep track of the benefits manually.

[SHOW]: [sblock=Full Timeline]

https://docs.google.com/document/d/14iV ... sp=sharing[/sblock]
While there is a decent set of lore so far with the timeline and the short write up below, I would very much appreciate help in the lore department for the different races if you so choose (ie. "I want to play an Orc who went far far north, can I come up with some lore for the north!"), thanks!

The land you start off in is a great crater, which goes on for miles and miles in any direction. The mountains that encircle the area are on the horizon, being miles and miles high and nearly perfectly circling the crater except one or two spots where the mountains break, and have small paths to the outside world. Many humans choose not to explore out that far, but a few stray ones have, though few have returned to share their experiences.

[SHOW]: [sblock=Races of the World]

Humans
[SHOW]
The Mortal Swords: The main group of humans was in the center of the crater. They shunned most magic but willingly accept dwarves for weapons and armor. Mages do exist from the main group, but they are shipped off to the Elves for their academy.

The Heirs of Starlight: These are the humans who fully integrated into what was left of the Elvish society. They make up the majority of the Mages in the country, and would later become scientists and academics in later society after magic is evaporated.

The Outlanders: The final group of humans are the ones who escaped beyond the mountains and managed to survive, many as barbarians and conquerors. These humans are not always barbarians, but the ones who are not killed will typically be pushed into a brutal savage existence.

[sblock3=Orcs]Orcs come from the deserts that form a godless ring around the mountains. Many Orcs specialize in fighting due to their immense raw strength. Starting in a close ring around the crater are where you find most of the few orcish communities. A small number of them would be:

Clan Sharptusk: A brutal clan of orcish hunters who have made a name for themselves by taking down big game.
Clan Savage Hand: A Barbarian tribe located near the edge of the western Rim.
Clan Steel Claw: An orcish clan that has mastered the art of shapeshifting, many of which end up being druids.[/sblock3]

Dwarves
[SHOW]
At one time, the four groups of Dwarves seemed to come from the same family. At least, that was the running assumption by most people. Eventually it was clear by the way they distinguished themselves that they definitely were four different groups of Dwarves who did not get along. These Dwarves are:
The Goldsmiths: The main group of Dwarves, known as "House Bronzehorn". They live in the western-most range of mountains. For many years, right up until the dawn of the 1900s, they would occasionally come down for trade and sale.
The Coalguard: Dwarves who, come from the southern-most mountain range. There's a small bridge made between the two mountains where they break, which the Dwarves created to better travel between the two. Later, a gate was added below the bridge to keep out the barbarians.
The Burned Eyes: The third group of Dwarves live in the eastern-most set of mountains. They are the most aggressive and malevolent of the four Dwarvish clans. Their dream is to someday conquer the mountain range under the flag of House Grimskull, but as of yet they've been unsuccessful.
The Earthforged: The final group of Dwarves live in the northern-most mountains, they refer to themselves as Earthforged in their own tongue, but many Elves know them as "Clan Deepcrag". The Earthforged seem the most friendly out of all of the groups that come down, and even dug a passage through the mountain shortly before the Aurora Elves went through on their pilgrimage to the northern wastes. The Northerners tend to be magic users, using it to assist in mining ore that they trade with the Goldsmiths for valuable items.

[sblock4=Elves]Moon Elves: The original Elves who lived near the ancient pool left by the gods. Experts in Arcane magic. Not all Moon Elves are practitioners of the Arcane, though many are, and even the ones who do not have some base level of Arcane ability. Moon Elves, blessed by the pool at birth, live for thousands of years.
Sun Elves: They broke off from the original elves and made huge towers, choosing to praise the sun and the gods rather than the arcane magic of the pool. Not all Sun Elves are practitioners of holy magic, though all Sun Elves have some latent magical ability from their exposure to the sun. Even without direct exposure to the pool, Sun Elves (and Aurora Elves) live upwards of 1000 years.
Dark Elves: These elves broke off from the Moon Elves to hide in the deep caves below, stealing some of the magic pool for themselves. Many of these Dark Elves are experts in shadow magic, drinking and feeding on it. A common trait is that Dark Elves can shift from shadow to shadow, and experts of such abilities seem to teleport across the battlefields at night. The Dark Elves, for stealing water from the pool, are cursed to live forever. They cannot die, even if slain on the fields of battle. Their souls are reincarnated into new bodies that emerge from the pool they have hidden deep below the surface.
Aurora Elves: Aurora Elves, more commonly known as Snow Elves by the humans, are elves who migrated north many years ago. They once bartered with the dragon of the north in his youth, coming later to call him "Bartheus". Their exchange gave birth to the hot springs which allow the elves to survive in the cold, harsh northlands. As per their name, they worship the Aurora that lights up the cold dark night sky. They (Like the Sun Elves) live for upwards of 1000 years.[/sblock4][/sblock]

Mikkjal Fjósson, the Boreal Blademaster

[SHOW]: [sblock=Ten Minute Background]

Background and Concept Elements
[SHOW]
Appearance: Mikkjal is about average height for an elf, standing at around 6'4" and fairly toned. He has short, wavy hair, a silvery blonde hue common of the Snow Elves of the frozen north. His eyes are a pale blue-gray, to the point of nearly being colorless. His skin, used to little sun exposure, remains pale, though his cheeks may often grow flushed bright red whether from frigid air or embarrassed remarks. Ever-used to covering up nearly all skin, his cloth and leather garbs even now reflect this. Owing to his family's wealth, they were custom-made, with easily-removable layers for varying climates.

Personality: Overall, Mikkjal is an amiable man, preferring to be friendly than aggressive even towards those he just met. His schooling taught him the importance of diplomatics and he's generally tried to keep with it. As his culture emphasizes family, he is very protective of family. This goes for his family of birth and those close friends who have become a second family to him.

Rather than remain serious all the time, he occasionally has a childlike spirit, partially as he's fairly young for an elf. He enjoys lighthearted comments and playfulness, though understands when one should be serious. On occasion, he may come across and condescending, though he doesn't mean it and has tried his hardest to be humble. Overall, though, Mikkjal has a strong sense of duty and is ready to do what needs to be done. He has, however, felt a lot of pressure, with many expectations upon him: both by birthright and his desire to protect.

Under the Violet Skies: The eve Mikkjal was born, the aurora painted the land in a violet light, a rare sight but not all unheard of. To the Snow Elves, the colors of the aurora on the night of one's birth could determine their future. Violet meant the child was destined for greatness. Destined to lead their followers to a brighter future, a prosperous one. And Mikkjal was to befit this, so the skies told. He was born to Geir and Svana of the House Fjósson, the patron house of the violet auroras. As such, an expectation of greatness was placed upon him from birth. He was not alone in this, however, as he had three older brothers paving the way before him. Though he never hoped to inherit the House title, his expectations were still high.

Within Hyljavik, the family unit has heightened importance and family name as a result. This is especially true for the five high houses, who lead Hyljavik: Græsson, Gulsson, Bleiksson, Blársson, and Fjósson. Family determines opportunity, yet also provides stability to even those less fortunate in the realm. For Mikkjal, this provided a loving core right from birth.

The Aurora and the Stars: As a toddler, Mikkjal grew close with another child, Lilja Blársson, as House Blársson had close ties with House Fjósson. It was in Lilja that Mikkjal found his first friend, beyond family. The two played often, whether in the snows or spring pools. Though it was unclear then, they would be friends for life. Eventually, schooling began for the youths, a system called the Auroran Academy where the High House's future leaders were educated, extensively. In the earlier years, it focused upon basic education, history and literature and the like. During his formative years, the education turned to diplomatic training and stewardship.

Towards the end of the Auroran Academy, Mikkjal and the other students were trained both martially and magically for combat. They would soon form the new ranks of the Duskwatch, Hyljavik's elite protectors. His time in the guard was largely lackluster, with the most excitement coming from defending against routine tribal raids. On the ice fields beyond Hyljavik's grasps, exiles and savages lived in squalor. Jealous of the prosperity, raids were a common occurrence. However, the city's stalwart defenses never failed.

Farewell to the Springs: Eventually, Mikkjal realized it was time to move on from the Duskwatch. He had ambitions that were larger than his homeland could realize, as much as he loved it. He spent many nights lost in thought, staring up at the painted sky as if it had the answers. It did not, he realized. His brother Freyr did, however, suggesting Mikkjal go adventuring, in search of new lands and new tales. After much deliberation with his family, he decided to do as his brother suggested. He would go and achieve greatness beyond his realm, and experience much more.

The night before he was to depart, he toured the city once more, a farewell of sorts as it would be months before returning. As he did, he heard a voice whisper to him, seemingly from the skies itself. Assuming it to be the voice of the Aurora, a force revered and somewhat worshiped by his kin, he listened. It offered him a new source of strength and power. In exchange, he would work tirelessly to cast out the darkness from the world, much like the moon and aurora do to the darkened nights. Graciously, he accepted and began his journey.

Aurora Light the Way: Mikkjal, from the get-go, enjoyed his time adventuring. He saw many more lands than he knew even existed, and felt more temperatures than he knew existed. Despite his distaste for the heat of the land in the crater, he eventually grew used to it. He honed his skills and felt his yearning ambition begin to finally get quenched. There was always more to be done, though, and it kept him going.

Eventually, he caught wind of a foe named Malegoth, a wizard causing chaos across the realm and intent on ruling the world. He then realized Malegoth must have been the darkness the Aurora spoke of. Soon after, he heard rumors of a team with hopes of defeating him. Intent on fulfilling his promise, he followed the rumors, soon finding himself in a rag-tag band of adventurers.

Goals
[SHOW]
1) Mikkjal wants to work together and defeat Malegoth so that they may save the world from his tyranny.

2) I'd like for Mikkjal to be able to protect his second family and strengthen his ties with them as they continue their journey.

Secrets
[SHOW]
1) Mikkjal owes much of his unique abilities to striking a pact with an Auroran spirit shortly before leaving home. She bestowed the gifts of the moon and aurora, and in return, he would fight to banish darkness from the world.

2) His childhood friend Lilja was recently killed while defending against a raid upon Hyljavik.

People Tied to Mikkjal
[SHOW]
1) Freyr is Mikkjal's older brother and the closest in age to him, being all of a year older. Since birth, the two were practically best friends and were nearly inseparable prior to schooling years. He had always looked to Freyr for advice, and his brother always watched out for him during the misadventures that four young boys managed to get into. There are few Mikkjal trusts more than Freyr and it was on his advice that Mikkjal ultimately landed on the path towards becoming an adventurer.
[sblock3=Appearance][/sblock3]

2) Lilja Blársson is a longtime childhood friend of Mikkjal and a member of another of the city's high houses. The two are the same age and practically grew up together, as the two families had highly close ties. The two were often spar partners during their time in the Academy, and they insisted upon being paired doing routine watch. Lilja had developed feelings for Mikkjal, though he proved oblivious to them. She was heartbroken when he left, though he still makes a point to see her whenever he visits home once more.
[sblock3=Appearance][/sblock3]

3) Baldur is a somewhat sworn enemy of Mikkjal, a warrior from the tribal village of Bakevje on the western ice fields. The inhabitants of the village have long been jealous of the prosperity Hyljavik enjoys, and Baldur is no exception. Mikkjal first encountered him as he tried to launch a raid on the city, by himself. Though Mikkjal managed to get him to abandon such a lost cause, Baldur spoke with such rage as to make Mikkjal detest him. The two had many encounters from then on, sparring and butting heads on too many occasions. As if that wasn't enough, Baldur decided to be an adventurer himself after he got wind of Mikkjal's decision, hoping to "show that city boy what a real adventurer is like."
[sblock3=Appearance][/sblock3]

Memories, Mannerisms, and Quirks
[SHOW]
1) Being from the mostly-frigid north, Mikkjal has a higher tolerance for cold than those from the more temperate regions of the world.

2) Mikkjal vividly remembers the sights of the aurora from his homeland, thinking of it often as he peers up into the night sky.

3) Ever since childhood, Mikkjal has had a love for hide-n-seek. Once he learned of invisibility spells, he turned this into a battlefield tactic to gain the upper hand.

Background - Family/Class/Profession/Institutions
[SHOW]
Family: Mikkjal is the youngest brother in his family, with three older brothers: Freyr, Aron, and Njall. His parents, Geir and Svana, are alive and well, living out their lives in Hyljavik.

Class: Mikkjal was born into the ruling class of Hyljavik, the families of aristocracy that the city-state was founded by. In time, the high houses became defacto nobility as the origins faded.

Profession: Mikkjal is an adventurer by trade, roaming the land and performing various odd-jobs for needy and overbearing people.

Institutions: Mikkjal was part of the Auroran Academy, an organization where the children of the high houses are taught to lead, through martial ability, scholarly pursuits, and charismatic endeavors. They are also trained to be an elite guard for Hyljavik, instilling a sense of duty in the future leaders. He also spent extensive time in this elite guard, known as the Duskwatch.

Drives - Primary/Secondary/Tertiary
[SHOW]
Primary: Family: In Hyljavik, family, both by blood and bond, is considered one of the most important tenets of society and something that's always worth protecting. Mikkjal has taken this with him on his travels. Though his born family is far away, he now has a second family he feels the same values with.

Secondary: Wealth: Being from a wealthy upbringing, Mikkjal was taught the value of money early on. As a result, he would like to amass himself a personal fortune to expand his own family's wealth and influence.

Tertiary: Renown: Though he doesn't expressly perform actions for fame, it's always in the back of his mind. He thinks it would be pretty cool to end up remembered for generations, whether as a mythical hero of legend or a figure in a history tome.

Goals - Short-Term/Medium-Term/Long-Term
[SHOW]
Short-Term: Mikkjal wants to find and defeat Malegoth, putting an end to his evil schemes.

Medium-Term: Mikkjal would like to travel even more of the world and hone his skills even further.

Long-Term: Eventually, he would like to return home and start a family.

Relations
[SHOW]
Gwenlyn: Mikkjal seems a lot in common with Gwenlyn, despite coming from near-opposite ends of the world. Both came from privilege and both have a knack for magic. He appreciates her curiosity, though worries it may eventually bring trouble upon her. Her occasionally-snobbish nature hardly bothers Mikkjal, as he grew up in an environment full of such behavior. As a result, he just ignores it and assumes it's not as intentional as it seems.

Minha'kal: While not extraordinarily pious himself, Mikkjal respects Minha'kal's dedication to her faith, knowing that such dedication could carry over to more. He finds her stoicism somewhat odd, though does his best to make her feel comfortable so that she may improve her socialization skills. Additionally, he respects her greatly, being an elf of many more years than he's enjoyed, though hardly the oldest he's come to know.

Jazde: Mikkjal greatly respects Jazde, despite the great differences they share on the outside. Though her directness can catch him off-guard, her dedication and oath to duty garner much for the snow elf. He appreciates her patience, as he's found many in his travels to be lacking it. Additionally, he appreciates her similarly-friendly nature, knowing he can trust her given her fierce loyalty.

Gwenlyn Aera, Mage of the Heirs of Starlight

[SHOW]: [sblock=Ten-Minute Background]

Background and Concept Elements
[SHOW]
1) Birth and Early Life - Gwenlyn was born to the prominent Aera family. A family with a natural gift for magic, both her parents were high ranking members of the Heirs of Starlight. Gwenlyn in particular was born with an exceptional natural talent for the magical arts.

As an Aera she received expert tuition from the Heirs and Elves which, combined with her natural talent, saw her quickly become one of the Heirs' rising stars.

2) Groomed For Adventure - Around the age of 14, Gwenlyn had already learnt to control magic it could take others a life time to master. Around this time the power of a human in the centre of the crater, Malegoth, was beginning to become a cause for concern. Due to her abilities, and family's influence, Gwenlyn was picked to be the first member of the group that would later challenge Malegoth. Her training and lessons were stepped up to prepare her, although it wasn't long before there was little more the Heirs' best mages could teach her.

3) Monster Hunter World - Already armed with most of the Heir's of Starlight's knowledge, and aged only 18, Gwenlyn's training became more practical. She began travelling and adventuring with a group of elven warriors and other potential candidates for the party to challenge Malegoth.

The adventures and hunts, while providing Gwenlyn with valuable experience, did prove to be dangerous and many of the potential candidates were killed or wounded by the beasts.

4) Final Quest - Eventually, after years training with the Elves, the party set out to track down and defeat Malegoth, with Gwenlyn among their number.

5) Personality - Gwenlyn is friendly with a naturally inquisitive mind. She can sometimes come across as snobbish due to her privileged upbringing and having been groomed for her role in defeating Malegoth.

[SHOW]
Primary: Knowledge/Magical Power - Gwenlyn has always had a gift for magic, however she also has an inquisitive mind and a desire to learn and better her abilities.

Secondary: Defeating Malegoth - One of her main drives is the defeat of Malegoth, having been trained for the task since she was teenager.

Tertiary: Renown. Gwenlyn wants to be known as a powerful mage.

Goals - Short-Term/Medium-Term/Long-Term
[SHOW]
Short-Term: Defeat Malegoth with her companions.

Medium-Term: Gwenlyn wishes to continue adventuring after the defeat of Malegoth as, while it is the thing she has been groomed for most of her life, she doesn't want it to be the thing that defines her.

Long-Term: Gwemlyn wishes to eventually return to the Heirs of Starlight to start a family and play an active role in their leadership like her parents.

Relations
[SHOW]
Mikkjal Fjósson - Gwenlyn likes Mikkjal, having a lot to relate with the elf on, with his own friendly nature helping. Similarly to Jazde, she is wary of the fact he comes from outside the crater, although this is lessened somewhat by the fact he is an elf.

Minha'kal El'solantra- Having grow up amongst both humans and the Moon Elves, Gwenlyn does not trust in Minha's faith, more so due to her level of unquestioning devotion. She does however respect the Elf's years and wisdom, believing she likely has learnt much worth knowing over her long life, similarly to the elders of the Moon Elves.

Jazde- Gwenlynn has grown to respect Jazde's skill and ability over the months training and travelling together, however she still finds herself naturally wary of Jazde due to the woman coming from outside the crater and the associations that generally follow.

Minha'kal El'solantra, Sentinel of the Sun Temple

[SHOW]: Minha'kal is tall for human standards, though average for elves. She has dark skin and dark hair like most sun elves, and is quite muscular. She wears long ornate robes in golds, reds, and whites, which stop around her knees for better mobility in combat. Her feet are wrapped in cloth and she wears simple, tight shoes. With her she carries a large, ornate staff that features many designs and texts that are common to Sun Elf motifs. The weapon, though highly decorated, is also powerfully enchanted by the priests of her temple

[SHOW]: [sblock=Personality]

Minha'kal is a very devout and pious woman, having spent the bulk of her incredibly long life in the service of the Sun, her people's god. She was raised in a cloister, under a vow of modest living arrangements and a detachment from personal connections, so has very little in the way of social skills. She often cites passages from the various mantras she learned in her time at the Temple of the Sun, adages that are often only loosely connected to the topic at hand, as they are the closest she has to personal experience in many cases.

She has, for centuries now, been raising and living with pet owlbears, which is where her true compassion comes out. She may not be accustomed to speaking with other elves or humans, but she feels comfortable and compassionate towards such animals, which has extended somewhat into compassion for animals in general. She will often go out of her way to pet the beasts or soothe them if scared, and it is clear to many that she is much more comfortable with them than she is with the sentient races.

Despite this isolation from interpersonal connections, though, she is not distant or cold. She often appears stoic, though it is from years of being made to stand in place with nothing happening. She is quick to try to join into a conversation if she has an idea, even if the idea is merely a reference to a poem or scripture from her past, and it is clear that she is trying to become better adapted to socialization.[/sblock]

[SHOW]: [sblock=Ten-Minute Background]

Background and Concept Elements
[SHOW]
Early Life: Minha'kal was raised in the great Temple to the Sun, a massive tower built by the first Sun Elves to reach as close as they were able to the great celestial sphere in the sky. Her parents had been wild elves, and were some of the first to break free of the trees in favor of the sunlight above, aiding in the construction of the massive structure along with many other elves and some aid from dwarven craftsmen. There she was taught of the history of the elves, the split into sects, the truth of the Sun above all else, and the falsehood of the diminishing aetherial pool that the so-called 'high' elves viewed so highly.

Education and Coming-of Age: As with other sun elves, Minha'kal spent the first few decades of her life in intense study. She was taught their history, their doctrines, and how to wield the sun's divine power to the betterment of herself and others. She was shown the different, lesser towers as they were being built, and spent some time in them as her parents aided in their construction as well.

By the time she reached around 80 years of age she'd fully grown and matured, and was faced with the grand coming of age ceremony that all sun elves go through. She was brought to the top of the great temple at midday, stripped bare, and made to prostrate herself before the sun in all its heat and power. There she would be given her course in life, reveled to her by divine revelation. She was not to leave until this was done.

She stayed like this for days, hunched in prayer, growing ever hungrier, ever more tired, but eventually her purpose was revealed. She was to be the guardian of the tower, one of the Sun Sentinels whose purpose in life was to prevent any harm that monsters or man might seek to cause the sun elves or their structures. She was also told that one day her skills would be needed more than ever, and that she would know it when the time comes.

When she finally came down from the top of the tower and told her family of her revelation, they were equal parts thrilled and saddened by the news. While a noble and righteous cause, the Sun Sentinels led lonely and harsh lives. She was not to ever marry or bear children, nor was she to mingle with others in her free time. Free time would be a luxury of the past for the young elf.

Intensive Training: Her training began almost immediately. Her possessions, what few private items she owned, were to be given away or kept by her family as keepsakes. She would move from their home to a barracks in the high reaches of the tower, where she'd wear robes identical to her brothers and sisters in the Sentinels, and where her needs would be fulfilled modestly and equally to all others.

The first step of the sentinels was spiritual physical training, where she and others like her were being taught to use staves and spears in combat. She'd been shown a little of this by her parents - who'd had much experience with them as wild elves - but not ever to the extent needed by the Sentinels. The initial few years saw her sparring and practicing with other elves her age, but soon she would be made to fight with larger and stronger elves, then eventually sent to training against wild beast and monsters.

Over the years she grew stronger, and as her physical skills grew her spiritual abilities began to be trained as well. Her days started to begin with meditation and prayer, done in the heat of the blazing sun with her thick temple robes and bare head open to the sun's rays. In time, this spiritual connection to the sun would be combined with her basic knowledge of the divine magics to improve her combat abilities. She became tougher through her connection to the sun, her abilities in battle became enhanced.

An Unexpected Companion: In the later years of her training, when she was being tested rather than taught, one of her tasks was to be sent to a den of owlbears and root them out. The creatures had been inching ever closer to the great temple and had been a plague on travelers, so if she was able to prove she could take a number of them out on her own she'd show the others she was ready to be made a Sentinel.

She lie in wait outside their den until they came out to hunt, and ambushed them. There were a total of 5 and, though a difficult fight, she managed to defeat the creatures mostly unscathed. She was quite tired, however, and the day was nearly done, so she sought shelter in their cave for the evening. There she found that the five she had slain were not all of the beasts, but there was one small cub - barely more than a newborn - that remained inside.

Struck with guilt at having slain the beast's mother, and a sense of compassion for the small creature, she decided to bring the cub back to the temple with her. Though the others were initially alarmed by its presence, they eventually allowed her to keep it as a pet so long as she accepted responsibility for all of its needs. She was granted the status of sentinel as she hoped, and her long tenure as a temple guardian began.

The Sun Sentinel: For roughly two centuries, Minha'kal served as a Sun Sentinel at the Temple of the Sun, guarding the entrance to the structure from outsiders and ravenous beasts. Her powers grew ever great during this time, but eventually her pet owlbear passed from age. However, by then enough of the other sentinels had grown fond of hers that they'd acquired owlbears of their own to train, and so there were many others in the temple at the time. Within a few months of its passing she would take another newborn owlbear as a pet and companion, raising it as her own, and the cycle continued anew. The other sentinels began to follow her example, and in time it became a standard part of sentinel training to learn how to tame and take of one's own companion owlbear.

As the years passed she would raise many, and they would pass on after a couple decades as usual. It hurt each time, but the thrill of meeting the next newborn cub and bonding with it as it grew always made the sadness worth it. Though not allowed to love another elf, she had grown to love each and every one of her pet owlbears, and they were a boon to the sentinels as well, aiding in combat when needed.

Moregoth's Ascendence: After a few centuries at her post, it became clear to all in the realm that an adventurer by the name of Moregoth was becoming a threat to all life. He'd attacked numerous places, making off with various powerful artifacts, and it was not long before word came that on of the lesser towers built in devotion to the sun had been ransacked by the madman.

Learning of this, Minha'kal plead with the temple elders to do something. Send the Sun Sentinels in force to track the man down, lest he make his way to the great temple itself. The elders of the temple deliberated, but in that time others of the sun towers were attacked. In the end they determined that the best course of action was to bring all who could make the migration to the great temple, that the combined might of all sun elves should be enough to stop any would-be intruder, even one as notorious as Moregoth.

Minha'kal was disappointed by their decision, but stood by it for a time. However, rumors began to come to the temple that a force of adventurers were training to face the man, aiming to put a stop to his terror once and for all. Feeling that this was a better course of action than waiting to be attacked at the temple, Minha'kal left the sentinels behind and sought out this group of adventurers. There she was allowed to join up with them, and sought to bring the fight to their foe once and for all...

Goals
[SHOW]
1) Minha'kal's primary goal in life is the protection of the Temple of the Sun, and her hunt for Moregoth is in pursuit of that goal

2) I'd like for Minha'kal to develop some personal bonds with the party or other NPCs, since she has not had many since becoming a Sun Sentinel

Secrets
[SHOW]
1) Minha'kal does not want to go back to the Sun Sentinels, but she cannot let that be known. Her time traveling with others has opened her eyes to the other things that exist in the world, other beliefs and practices, and she wishes to experience more of it rather than return to the same monotony that had been her life prior to the hunt for Moregoth.

2) The elders of the Sun Elves are in cahoots with Moregoth, believing his work at ending life is in line with what the sun desires. They believe that the humans are a plague and that the sun's bright rays will burn them and the world they've made to a crisp, leaving only the devout sun elves left to rebuild and recolonize the world in their image.

People Tied to Character
[SHOW]
Melsi'val El'Solantra - Minha'kal's mother, whom she has had little interaction with since her coming of age. She loves her mother and wishes her well, but has no strong connection to the woman.

Amte'bes El'solantra - Minha'kal's father, whom she has little interaction with since her coming of age. Though she often thinks back to the very basic combat lessons she received from the man in adolescence - and how bad those lessons turned out to be, compared to her later Sentinel training - she also does not feel an especially strong connection to the man.

Chief Sentinel Nenta'ra - the head of the Sun Sentinels for the Temple of the Sun, and a perpetual thorn in Minha'ka's side. The woman, while 'fair', is a true hard-ass in every sense of the word. She takes the sentinel vow of modesty and solitude very seriously, and has curbed all of Minha'kal's few attempts to form any sort of bond with her fellow Sentinels. As such, the girl scarcely knows more than the names of the others she serves with, having no real meaningful connections other than with her pet owlbears.

Memories, Mannerisms, and Quirks
[SHOW]
1) Minh'kal often remembers the intensity of her coming of age ceremony when in meditation, or otherwise left to her own devices with nothing else to do. While she experiences many hardships during training and in her time as a Sentinel, nothing quite matched the intensity of those days. The feel of the sun's rays constantly bearing down on her skin, the constant sweat pooling until she was left with no further water to sweat out. The hunger, delirium, and hallucinations. The brief cooldowns at night as the sun went away, and the guilt she felt towards her relief at its departure. It all plays in her mind over and over in the most calming of moments, and she often wonders if it is the same for others of her kind.

2) Minha'kal is very stoic, often content to merely stand still and expressionless. Most of her time for the last few centuries has been spent doing so, and this often comes across as odd to the few humans she's met since leaving to hunt for Moregoth.

3) Her favorite memories are the times she was raising a newborn owlbear to be her next companion. Though it happens frequently and should be mundane after a time, she remembers each and every one fondly, and still remembers all of their names and faces.

Background - Family/Class/Profession/Institutions
[SHOW]
Family: Wild elves turned sun elves, who have adopted the family name El'solantra. Her parents are chiefly builders, and she has no interactions with any other members of her family

Class: The Sun Elves do not have classes

Profession: Sun Sentinal, devout guardian of the Temple of the Sun

Institutions: The Sun Sentinels, the group facing Moregoth

Drives - Primary/Secondary/Tertiary
[SHOW]
Primary: Faith. Minha'kal's primary drive in life has always been her faith in the Sun and the teachings of the temple priests. She has always served both loyally, and will do so until the day she dies.

Secondary: Companionship. Though she took the vow of solidarity as part of her sentinel training, she has since grown accustomed to the companionship granted by the owlbears she has raised. This has only grown in her time living away from the sentinels and, though her faith in the sun has not wavered, her desire to return to the sentinels wanes more each day.

Tertiary: Adventure. Though never her main reason for joining the sentinels, Minha'kal did grow to enjoy the exploits she was made to do as part of her training, and missed it once her training ended. Now that she gets to travel again she is enjoying all of the new sights to see.

Goals - Short-Term/Medium-Term/Long-Term
[SHOW]
Short-Term: Find Moregoth

Medium-Term: Kill Moregoth and reverse bad shit he has done

Long-Term: See the world

Crew Relations
[SHOW]
Mikkjal: Minha'kal finds the young elf to be pleasant enough, but she is wary of him both for his age and the the fact he is from outside of the crater. Sun Elf legends hold that the regions outside of the crater are prone to death and corruption, and she worries the man may be unknowingly harboring a demon or serving at the behest of one of the dragons from behind the mountains. She tries to keep a close watch on him in case he does anything to suggest that may be true.

Gwenlyn: Though she finds the young woman's skills admirable, she does find her snobbish nature distasteful, it being the opposite of how she was raised. She likewise find's the woman's faith in the aetherial pool of the false 'high' elves to be worrying, though not enough to warrant dissent if said faith aids in defeating Moregoth.

Jazde: Minha'kal finds Jazde's patience refreshing, seeing it as a trait too often lacking in most humans, likely due to their pitifully short lifespans. She shares the woman's preference for direct approaches, though - like with Mikkjal - worries that her time outside of the crater may have left her expose to dark forces

Introducing Jazde, Warpriest of the Jomuun

[SHOW]: [sblock=Appearance]

Jazde is tall, and well-built for a human woman. Her skin is an umber tone, and her hair is usually tied back in tight cornrows with dreadlocks that fall to her shoulder.

Jazde usually wears light armor that covers her chest and shoulders, leaving her arms free for more mobility. She carries with her a heavy spear that spans taller than her.[/sblock]

[SHOW]: [sblock=Personality]

Jazde brings a very direct approach to every aspect of her life. She says what she means. She is very assertive. She knows what she wants, and finds out how to get it.

However, Jazde is also a very patient person. She treats others how she expects to be treated, but returns any hostility or aggression with her own. She is easy to befriend because of her loyal, if fierce, nature.[/sblock]

[SHOW]: [sblock=Ten-Minute Background]

Background and Concept Elements
[SHOW]
1) Early Struggles — Born into a world without a surviving mother, Jazde was taken care of by her father, Kumari. Life on the Rim was not easy for Jazde and the rest of the Jomuun tribe. They could not stay in one place for too long, so they did most of their hunting, trading, and living on the go. Nomadic life meant that Jazde was quickly on her feet and a part of the tribe, even from a very young age.

2) Training — As a warpriest himself, Jazde's father began her training early on. She trained with the spear in every regard — how to hunt beasts, as well as how to defend herself from the barbarians and other threats that were rife among the land around them. She learned of her people's devotion to Verlez, and committed her life to following the teachings and lessons that Verlez had passed to her ancestors and those before them.

During this time, Jazde grew close to Ruvi, another young warpriest. Ruvi's parents were both slain years ago during a hunting expedition, but the young boy had grown stronger because of it. Jazde looked at Ruvi as a role model, a friend, and a rival. Together, they would challenge each other to be the best Jomuuni they could be.

3) Raid of the Hatusa — As a late teenager, Jazde's tribe was attacked one night by the Hatusa, a band of roaming barbarians. Many of the Jomuuni were killed, including Jazde's father as well as the chieftain. The barbarians took some of the Jomuun people as prisoners, while many of the others were able to get away.

4) Ruvi's Fall — After the raid, Jazde's mentor, Mairobi, and a few of the other warpriests led an attack on the Hatusa to free their people. Spending four days tracking the barbarians, they eventually found and set upon them. The battle was swift, as the Hatusa fought powerfully but fell to the unexpected attack. Jazde and the others were able to rescue those taken, but they Ruvi had suffered a mortal wound in the process. He died two days later, marking a pivotal moment in Jazde's life. Her father, her best friend, and her chieftain had fallen in one season.

5) The Quiet Years — The Jomuun experienced several years of relative safety, a welcome change to the typical tensions on the Rim. In this time, Jazde and her people were able to strengthen their numbers and even spend as long as seasons in some places before moving on for safety. Jazde continued in her training, taking heed of Verlez' calling and her mentor's guidance. She quickly became one of the most able warriors in the Jomuun.

6) The Verdant Coil — Long had the Jomuun guarded an artifact called the Verdant Coil. Many said that it was what Verlez gave the first Jomunni warrior — a pendant that would grant them protection despite all odds. As a warpriest, Jazde was told not what the Verdant Coil was, how to use it, or if it truly works, but that she needed to protect whoever held it. For the most of her life, it had been carried by the elders, traded off occasionally for safety.

Naturally, it had become such a minor thing in her mind after more pressing and urgent manners such as constant raids and famine. The elders were never the source of concern for any attackers, until one afternoon. A man had approached their tribe, demanding the Coil. Mairobi had laughed at this. And so Malegoth killed him.

7) A Slaughter on the Rim — The Jomuuni fought Malegoth, but the wizard easily put them down like pigs to a slaughter. When the fighting was over, the Coil was gone, and most of Jazde's people were gone. Injured, distraught, and in shock, she wandered the Rim for almost a week, her mind broken. Eventually found by traders from a small settlement just within the crater, Jazde recovered slowly but surely.

8) The Hunt for Malegoth — After hearing rumors of a group intent on fighting the being that had destroyed most of her people and stolen the Verdant Coil, Jazde set out to join them.

Goals
[SHOW]
1) Bring order to the Rim by stopping Malegoth.

2) I want Jazde to find peace, and start a family.

Secrets
[SHOW]
1) Jazde has her doubts of Verlez. The Verdant Coil never seemed to truly work — after all, most of her people had died, seemingly without any protection from Verlez.

2) The Verdant Coil's purpose and power is entirely different than what the Jomuuni people understood.

3) Makoev is searching for Jazde. He has vowed to kill her himself.

People Tied to Character
[SHOW]
1) Mairobi — Jazde's mentor and the lead warpriest for the Jomuun before he was killed. Mairobi was a strict, but gentle soul. He taught Jazde not to fight for bloodshed's sake or for revenge, but to make the world a better place for their people.

2) Gratuva — The chieftain of the Jomuun following the previous one's defeat by the Hatusa. Gratuva is a strong-willed, loyal, and motivated chieftain, and a mother. Gratuva survived Malegoth's attack.

3) Ruvi — Jazde's childhood friend and rival. Ruvi was always showing Jazde where she could better herself. He was a fun, friendly, and uplifting soul to be around. Ruvi was killed in the Jomuun's counterattack on the Hatusa.

4) Kumari — Jazde's father. Kumari was the first person to teach Jazde the ways of a Verlez warpriest. He was loving and honest. He died in the raid by the Hatusa.

5) Makoev — One of the Hatusa. Makoev killed Ruvi before escaping the Jomuun's attack. He has sought Jazde for a while, hoping to kill her himself.

Memories, Mannerisms, and Quirks
[SHOW]
1) Jazde likes to think back to a time when she was training with Ruvi. They were sparring, and Ruvi was winning. She tricked him with sleight of hand and put him into a losing situation. Instead of being sour, Ruvi was impressed and wished to learn her trick. That was a month before he was killed.

2) Jazde says a prayer before each battle. This helps her feel a connection to her powers, as granted to her by Verlez.

3) Jazde treats others how she'd like to be treated. If they seek to kill her, she will show no mercy. However, if others approach her with kindness and a gentle heart, she will return the favor.

Background - Family/Class/Profession/Institutions
[SHOW]
Family: Mostly dead. The remainder of the Jomuun are close or distant relatives.

Class: Tribal

Profession: Roaming adventurer

Institutions: Priesthood of Verlez

Drives - Primary/Secondary/Tertiary
[SHOW]
Primary: Balance & Peace — Jazde seeks to create balance in the Rim and the Crater, so that her people and others can live in harmony and not fear.

Secondary: Pride — Jazde fights to prove that not all humans beyond the crater have forgone their humanity.

Tertiary: Fame — Jazde seeks to make a name for herself, though not out of vanity. If she can become a powerful figure or a leader, she can help bend the world toward utopian goals.

Goals - Short-Term/Medium-Term/Long-Term
[SHOW]
Short-Term: Find Malegoth and kill him

Medium-Term: Return to the Jomuuni band and rebuild

Long-Term: Start a family and live in peace

Crew Relations
[SHOW]
Mikkjal: Jazde feels that she can trust Mikkjal. She finds that they are more similar than one would expect — both duty-bound and relatively amiable. Despite the elf's age, Jazde feels that he is the closest thing to a leader that they have.

Gwenlyn: While Gwenlyn seems to treat her well enough, Jazde always feels like she isn't enough in the younger's eyes. The tone in her voice, a passing glance — it seems to Jazde that Gwenlyn thinks less of her for being from beyond the crater.

Minha'kal: Jazde appreciates Minha'kal's piety and her gentle nature toward the beasts she raises. Jazde understands the woman's stoicism and notices that she does her best to connect, despite her difficulty to.

Cynthia: Jazde feels a strong bond with Cynthia, both because of their shared history, and their shared sentiment. Jazde appreciates that Cynthia has a guiding force of justice, and admires her ability to bring many people together.

Cynthia, the Voice of the Fateful Chord

[SHOW]: Cynthia is tall and slender, with a quality of grace that belies her toughness. Her leather hauberk is reinforced by fine internal mail, a technique coined by the Elves of her home city. She carries a pair of easily-concealable silver daggers and the ingenious collapsible harp given to her by her childhood noble patron.

[SHOW]: Cynthia values beauty in the world. Not just the superficial allure of vistas and looks, but harmony, peace, and rightness among the world. She has a strong sense of justice, and strives to protect those who are underserved by the world. She is not afraid to strike down tyrants and those who would defile what she stands for with righteous fury. As a whole, Cynthia is soft-spoken, but when passionate about something, her feelings spill out into the world, affecting those around her by sheer force of emotion.

[SHOW]

Ten-Minute Background

Background and Concept Elements
[SHOW]
1) Early life - At a very young age, Cynthia became known as a bit of a prodigy with the harp. When she was five years old, she picked up a harp and started playing it, wooing the court of the lesser Elven noble, Dazen of Alba, her parents served.

2) Psionics - As she aged, people started to notice the powerful effects her emotions had on others. When she got upset at a barmaid, it is told, the largest bar fight the town had ever seen erupted. After seeing this, Dazen hired one of the finest psionics tutors he could afford. The tutor, Haken, was an adept in shaping music and emotion into powerful effects that could even warp luck itself. In addition, Dazen believed that a lady should have a well-rounded education, and taught her in the ways of etiquette and strategy.

3) Hatusa Raid - Around the age of sixteen, when her powers were coming into full, a barbarian tribe attacked her town, decimating it. Haken fought admirably, but was killed, and her parents and Dazen fled after the devastating attack. Cynthia and her little brother weren’t so lucky, falling into Hatusa captivity. However, during the journey back to the Hatusa homelands, she used her charms and guile to befriend a guard and inspire a “prison break” of sorts, slipping free of her wounded captors. This came with a price: the sorcerer-chief Kazan of the Hatusa flung a fireball at the escapees, incinerating Cynthia’s brother and two other captives. Cynthia escaped with only vengeance on her mind.

4) Mercenary Leader - Cynthia knew she could not defeat the Hatusa alone. She gathered up the soldiers she could find, along with some of the survivors of the Hatusa raid, and formed a mercenary band with iron discipline. Their success guarding towns and repelling raids from barbarian tribes brought her a small amount of fame, and more importantly, money to expand her forces. After hearing of the successful Jomunn counterattack on the Hatusa, she found evidence from a contact she had placed deep into the tribe’s cover that Kazan lived. Cynthia took her best warriors and went on a season-long hunt of the elusive and powerful sorcerer-chief, eventually hunting him down and killing him. After looting the riches he had taken with him, the party found clues toward some ancient, trapped source of magic.

5) The Fateful Chord - After dismissing her mercenary band and taking only a small set of retainers to search for the ancient codex hinted to in Kazan’s notes, Cynthia finally found it. However, it was trapped in an old, long-slain necromancer’s crypt. Letting her curiosity get the better of her, she cleared the crypt room by room until she found a woman frozen in dark ice. Cynthia broke the enchantment on the woman, Mazri, and she was quite gracious. Mazri could not leave the room, but offered to teach Cynthia everything she knew. Cynthia, knowing that this was a bad idea, accepted anyway. Mazri taught Cynthia the way of the war chant, how to twist fate and inspire awe with the pluck of a harp and a bellow of the voice. However, as her teachings drew to a close, Mazri’s weakened body fell, lifeless, as the spirits of the Fateful Chord tore out of their possessed host and attempted to find someone who could carry them out of this sealed prison. The spirits ignored her retainers except to expel them, each one fading out of the room, reappearing outside the crypt, until Cynthia, the only one with the strength to host such a spirit, had no choice but to let the Chord inl. Once the Chord had found a host, however, Cynthia was not so pliable. Her mental fortitude cordoned off the voices of the spirits, forcing them into a (tenuous, at first), alliance. Now, they cooperate, using each other’s strengths, but Cynthia is clearly in control; anything the Chord could do against her would be mutually assured destruction.

6) The Looming Threat of Malegoth - Cynthia received an urgent message from Dazen about the dangerous archwizard Malegoth, who threatened to destroy life as they know it and destroy the very concept of freedom. Cynthia knew that Malegoth was incredibly powerful, but she seeked newfound glory and to bring peace, so she vowed to stop him.

Goals
[SHOW]
1) Protect the Crater by defeating the tyrant Malegoth

2) Bring harmony and civilization to the Crater, ending the incessant warring and raiding.

3) Start a family, but not settle down - Cynthia is too determined to end the evils of the world.

Secrets
[SHOW]
1) The Fateful Chord is made up of a chorus of all those who have died before their time while near the spirit. With every death comes another voice in the Chord, sometimes strengthening it, but often leading to tormented voices getting through to Cynthia’s head.

2) Mazri’s body, resting in the crypt full of necromantic energies and hollow from centuries of possession, is slowly being reclaimed, transformed by the foul spirits of the crypt. This process is slow, but who knows what will lurk in the darkness in the coming centuries… (this process is assumed to stop during the fall of magic, but resumes after the dragons re-emerge).

People Tied to Character
[SHOW]
1) Dazen of Alba - the kind nobleman and widower who saw Cynthia’s talent and provided her the resources she needed, but fled during the Hatusa raid in which Cynthia saved his life.

2) Haken — Cynthia’s expert mentor until the Hatusa raid that took his life.
3) Kazan — The Hatusa sorcerer-chief that Cynthia hunted down and killed.
4) Vineeta — One of Cynthia’s former retainers before the Fateful Chord incident occurred. She’s the new captain of the mercenary company The Silver Falcon, and has grown it into a small, well trained and equipped army. Vineeta is still a loyal friend and ally to Cynthia.

Memories, Mannerisms, and Quirks
[SHOW]
1) The Fateful Chord has a habit of being the “responsible one” and the cynical one in their relationship, forcing the idealistic Cynthia to face pragmatism. It is certainly helpful when she forgets things, though, as the Chord has a perfect memory.

2) Cynthia treats everyone with heartfelt optimism. Unless you’re actively trying to hurt her, a loved one, or prey on the weak, she will assume the best in anybody.

3) She likes to remember back to when her parents threw her a small birthday party within their means and Dazen came, bringing a massive cake bigger than Cynthia herself. That memory taught her the value of generosity and to see the best in people.

Background - Family/Class/Profession/Institutions
[SHOW]
Family: Moved to one of the safer towns toward the center of the Crater. Her baby brother is dead, and she still holds vigil once a year for him.

Class: Her parents are glassblowers, but she was “taken in” by the nobility.

Profession: Adventurer and entertainer, spreading joy wherever she stays and helping protect against those who would abduct and enslave. She has been on a crusade against slavers lately.

Institutions: (Formerly) The Silver Falcon, a formidable mercenary company.

Drives - Primary/Secondary/Tertiary
[SHOW]
Primary: Happiness and Peace — Cynthia hopes to bring harmony and freedom to the people.

Secondary: Knowledge — Cynthia and the Chord both hunt for secrets and hidden knowledge, their curiosity and desire for understanding driving them forward.

Tertiary: Enjoyment. Cynthia wishes to make people love the time they have in life, including her own.

Goals - Short-Term/Medium-Term/Long-Term
[SHOW]
Short-Term: Defeat Malegoth and prevent him from hurting any more people

Medium-Term: Find love and start a family

Long-Term: Abolish slavery throughout the Crater

Crew Relations
[SHOW]
Mikkjal: Cynthia and Mikkjal naturally get along, with Cynthia taking a liking to his agreeable personality. Their shared heritage as elves also brings them together, and Cynthia respects him and his talents.

Gwenlyn: Although Cynthia feels somewhat turned away by Gwenlyn’s snobbish behavior, she is quick to see the best in her, and they share a thirst for knowledge and understanding. The Fateful Chord sees a lot to learn in Gwenlyn.

Minha'kal: Cynthia keeps trying to get Minha’kal to open up more and be more social, but despite her stoicism, Cynthia still has warmed up to the older elf. Although Cynthia doesn’t understand her at times, she maintains respect.

Jazde: Cynthia feels a strong personal bond with Jazde, as they were both devastated by the wanton destruction of the Hatusa and found vengeance. Cynthia respects the warpriest’s skill in battle and finds her directness refreshing.

WIP Background

Background & Concept
[SHOW]
Personality - Hanzo is good natured but arrogant, and has the experience to get away with it. He's bit eccentric when it comes to riding trains, and always looks for a monster fight.

Shinkansen Clan - Some orc tribes have developed a penchant for hunting monsters in urban areas. One particular group, now called the Shinkansen Clan, hunts the subways of New Tokyo. While the Shinkansen orcs are a boistrous lot, they are considered an unlikely blessing - their preference for melee combat over gunfighting significantly reduces the likelihood of civilian casualties. The Shinkansen Clan fights monsters in the subways without warning or being called, so long as they have a free pass to pursue their other passion - riding trains.

Urban Cooperation - The New Tokyo goverment requires that the urban orc tribes cooperate in training monster fighters, officially called the "Urban Monster Fighter Training Initiative" (Toshi-bu monsutā no sentōki kunren inishiachibu) or U.M.F.T.I. "Umphti", phoenetically. In return, the tribes are compensated monetarily and provided shelter (although most remain semi-nomadic).

Hanzo - Of all the Shinkansen Orcs, none are so adept as Shinkansen Hanzo, who has developed a preternatural talent for being nearby when monsters strike, and knowing where they will appear. For his experience (and luck), he has grown stronger, faster, and bolder than any of his metropolitan contemporaries. Hanzo abjectly refuses to particupate in Umphti, on the grounds that the monsters he hunts are simply too dangerous: "I don't take students. Feeding the monsters makes them stronger. On the other hand, I haven't had a real challenge in a while."

The Real Threats - According to Hanzo, the most dangerous monsters are the ones he hunts alone; the Monster Response Division (M.R.D., the parent organization of Umphti) is left to deal with the monsters Hanzo "lets through". The MRD called his bluff once, and sorely regretted it.

Hanzo has recently admitted there are some monsters he's been avoiding - most haven't threated to leave the Deep Subways, and he's not sure he can defeat them alone (Hanzi has suggested he's deterred a few). This greatly troubles the MRD.

Goals
[SHOW]
Hanzo wants to fight ever more challenging monsters!

I'm looking forward to playing the "brute". Let's punch monsters, and roleplay without charisma.

Secrets
[SHOW]
Hanzo's terrified of some of the monsters he's encountered lately. He's also afraid of the dark, but fighting monsters helps him overcome his fear.

Secret secret WIP

People
[SHOW]
M.R.D. Head of Operations Yoshitaka Sayoko (Orc), Hanzo has a soft spot for her, but she's frequently too busy to actually meet him in person. She often has to rely on Ueno Keumon as a liason with Hanzo.

M.R.D. Deep Subway Logistics Officer Ueno Kuemon (Human), basically the guy responsible for monitoring the area designated as "deep subway"; very much a "Let the Goverment handle this, this Orc doing everything himself is a self-perpetuating issue". Hanzo does not like him at all, causes a lot of tension between Hanzo and M.R.D.

Jin Ichie (Human), sweet little 5 year old girl who happens to ride the train during Hanzo's morning route. She talks to Hanzo about the stereotypical things children her age enjoy, and Hanzo enjoys conversing with her more than anyone else. Jin's ease with Hanzo has caused most people who ride the morning route to see Hanzo as a sort of gentle giant (although this really only applies to Jin), and the protector of the train.

WIP Mannerisms, Quirks, Memories
[SHOW]
Hanzo very much enjoys trains. He frequently suggests to the M.R.D. that he be given a combat-outfitted train to ride. "My train, more spikes and armor!" While not always appropriate, Hanzo will always suggest using the train for transportation.

Family, Class, Profession, Institutions
[SHOW]
Family - The Shinkansen Clan is largely responsible for raising Hanzo as a child. His parents, Satoshi (Dad) and Mai (Mom), are relatively passive figures in modern times as Hanzo spends more and more time away from the Clan.

Class - Warrior. All orcs of the Shinkansen Clan are considered warriors, as they believe their purpose is to hunt monsters.

Profession - The Subway Striker, Conductor of the Pain Train. Hanzo hunts monsters with, and without, cooperation from the MRD.

Institutions - Shinkansen Clan, M.R.D.

WIP Drives
[SHOW]
Primary - Hunt monsters. Nothing gets Hanzo up in the morning like knowing there are monsters that need stomping. It's a mix of altruism, and relishing the challenge.

Second -

Goals
[SHOW]
Short-term: find people who can actually help him fight some of the scarier monsters

Mid-term: Find the source of the monsters

Long-term: Retire. Hanzo cannot fight forever.

Important Features:
[SHOW]
Battlerager Vigor: Hanzo gains 6 THP when he hits with any attack. If it was an invigorating power (he has several), it grants +10 THP on a hit, or +6 on a miss.
Bloodied: When Hanzo becomes bloodied, he gains two powerful benefits. First, he can make a free melee basic attack (but grant CA until EoNT), the first time he becomes bloodied each encounter. Second, he can activate Wolf's Vitality for bonus regeneration and speed.
Werewolf: Hanzo has bonus speed as a werewolf, and will try to activate his Hybrid Wolfshape just before combat begins.
Polearm Combo: Due to Polearm Momentum (feat), Mark of the Storm (feat), Lightning Halberd (weapon), and Rushing Cleats (foot slot), Hanzo can slide any enemy he hits with his lightning polearm attacks 2 squares and knock them prone.

Halberd: Hanzo's halberd is both an axe and a polearm, and as such triggers two of the Weapon Master's Strike conditions.
