Iñigo's page

Iñigo after hearing Morten's instructions proceeds to the garden saying, "The matter shall be handled as you desire. By your leave."

Iñigo wrote:

Iñigo composes his appearance before heading back to the temple to meet with Morton.

Back at the temple, Sarven, one of the lesser priests, grins broadly as you come through the door, poorly concealed amusement glinting in his eye. "Morten's waiting for you in his office."

Normally when you enter the office Morten is pouring over a book or scroll. Normally he holding up a hand for silence, while he finishes the page before looking up at you. Today he is gazing expectantly at the door as you enter.

** spoiler omitted **

Flashing his sincerest smile, "Grandmaster, I am yours to command. Please instruct me on how you wish this task to be done."

Damn that Morton. May he be denied a place at the great banquet that is the First Lord's Day of Triumph.

Iñigo's hides his rage at being summoned upon hearing the words "special task." Finally, the man is learning to appreciate my talents. But that will not spare him from cleaning the latrines. Iñigo grins.

Iñigo composes his appearance before heading back to the temple to meet with Morton. I must remind him that I am the warrior that he is not.

Thom, thanks for the NPCs at the temple. Iñigo instantly dislikes them and is already plotting their downfall, preferably cleaning latrines with their toothbrush. :D

Iñigo finishes his chores as soon as he can and quickly returns to his quarters. Donning his armor and shield, Iñigo heads out of the temple on the pretext that he will coordinate with the Hellknights, taking care to avoid the Morton and his mongrel Owlen, an easy task in view of their lack of talent. Morton, I'll see you flayed for delegating such demeaning chores... It's completely unacceptable that these losers hold sway here. I shall see them in their proper places.

Outside the temple building, Iñigo breathes in the air. I shall accomplish a great deed today that will warrant my elevation above you, Morton and Owlen. Then we shall see how well you scrub the latrines. By the First Lord, I swear this.

Iñigo then heads towards Citadel Vraid, pausing a moment at the City Guard to requisition a horse.

I plan on reviewing your latest posts and starting the game thread Wednsday night. I'll post a link in this thread.

Thom

Looking forward to that :D

My two stories will be along the lines of, "Yeah, that was that time Darvyl tagged along w/ Keliwyn to the pub down by the docks, and they got in that barfight with a bunch of sailors" and how Keliwyn has tried prying info from Darthen about Thalos.

I can see Iñigo as being part of the city guard contingent sent in to impose the proper penalty for disturbing the peace of the King. He does love combat. Moreso, than most warrior-priests.

He probably believes he's immortal. But unfortunately, he is only immoral.

EDIT: Wishing everyone "A Prosperous New Year." :D

Jeorik is looking for his uncle, who he was told as a boy was training to join the order of the nail. Whether his uncle carried out this plan or not remains to be seen but it might be possible that someone would point the country boy to the man with connections to the Hellknights.

Inquiries in either the temple quarter or the city guard should point you to the man known as "The Hammer," who is reputed to be a violently man who has survived many an "adventure" with the Hellknights, i.e., proper collection of taxes and tithes and arrests of criminals and contract-breakers.

Just like in the past, non-payment of debts in Korvosa can land a person in debtor's prison, which should complement the impression that the city is oppressive.

Iñigo once sentenced a man to one year of hard labor for jay-walking. The man unfortunately did not survive the experience without severe mental trauma. Hey, the law may be hard but that is the law... dura lex sed lex.

And yes. group dynamics should be fun. Inigo is good to go, yes?

And how do you get the tilda over the "n" ?

How long has Inigo been in town?

Thom:

ñ = alt 164

Ñ = alt 165

Iñigo's been in Korvosa for a few years working with the Hellknight Order of the Nail, though the City Guard knows him. They even have a nickname for him, "The Hammer."

Iñigo is ready to go. :D

The group dynamics will be interesting to see. :D

Ummmmm . . . . burnt infidel.

I loved the scent of burnt heretics in the morning. It smells of salvation.

He's a bit twisted.

Thom, I used the six (6) additional skill points you gave to put 2 ranks in Knowledge (history) and 4 ranks in Profession (chef) or (iron chef), whichever you prefer.

Hey, cooking is very relaxing after a hard day of burning the infidels and flaying the heretics. Or so I heard....

This is the sentence that I object to:
"In addition, when preparing spells you can fill any or all of your domain spell slots with cure or inflict spells (depending on whether you would normally convert prepared spells to cure or inflict spells) of the same level. " I don't like being able to drop inflict spells in for the domain spell. To me it violates the whole metagame premise that the domain spells are for flavor, and the in game premise that a diety wants his clerics to have a certain flare. I am fully prepared to accept spontaneous domain casting without that sentence.

Iñigo does not intend to place inflict spells in the domain slots. Hence, I don't have any problem with that caveat.

I admit that I missed the 1/day and 1 minute limits on the spell. You're right this is basically a one encounter feat. That goes a long way toward making it more palatable. Do you agree that the bonus is either all attack or all AC?

Yes, it is either all attack or all AC. Otherwise, it would really be overpowered.

[/ooc]What makes you think a good-aligned DM like me would use undead?

You never know... :D

Wow. I thought you had come up with Julistar and the S&M queen on your own. Are there any other good back-ground flavor bits in there?

Julistar has an entire team at his beck and call (with full stats at 6th level). One member is a traitor to the Pathfinders. Moreover, it is possible to encounter Julistar researching the runelords in Varisia, as part of some archeological expedition.

Thom, considering that Iñigo is part of the nobility, would it be possible for him to start with breastplate armor, starting cash notwithstanding?

Also, can Iñigo take the Law Devotion feat from Complete Champion and Spontaneous Domain (Fire) Casting as an alternative class feature from PHB II? These feats would complement Iñigo's role as a Judicator, i.e. police/judge/jury/executioner. Korvosa is still a frontier compared to Cheliax.

For your ready reference, please see the following:

Here is the background of Iñigo.
