The reason I'm saying he got his powers from Barbatos (and perhaps the Black Blood of Orv), is due to the fact that the Dark Tapestry mystery is not something associated with Asmodeus, but fits with my suspicions about what Barbatos' origins may be.
<p>Besides, with Joy's character being an Asmodean cleric, I think she'll have the religious war aspect down pat. Zendross certainly wouldn't be looking at the High Priest role.</p>aptinuviel wrote:Also, question for Zendross (DarkNetwerk): Is there a reason to go with Barbatos over Asmodeus?

<p>This fellow looks to be more into fear-mongering (fear spells, intimidation, etc.) and combat (particularly with the later many forms revelation).

It does however give a good start to developing a solid character. So, I read your background and I think that you went for a pretty bold class / race / theme combo. As I said before there’s nothing wrong with that, but because it’s a Dread, I asked you to step it up. So here are some notes in no particular order.</p>
<p>1. High Elf with the Dreamer racial trait, ok that’s cool and you don’t see it much. It also plays off well with the Dread concept of playing on someone’s nightmares and fears. Haunting someone in their dreams? That is flavor.</blockquote><p>Yeah, that was what I was going for. The Silent Hunter is less connected, but vengeance by night needs a bit of speed (and thus also the fleet footed).
<div class="messageboard-quotee">Quote:</div><blockquote>2. Mixing and matching of the Skyseer and Vekeshi Mystic themes. I think that was a bit of a stumble. I would have chosen one and gone with it. Skyseers and Vekeshi Mystic could both be tied into High Elves but it would have been stronger to go with one and play it up. Personally I think that the Vekeshi Mystic route would have been the better route based on your character.</blockquote><p>Yeah, I was flexible on this. I wasn't sure where I wanted to go initially so I threw it all in so that I wouldn't forget what I was thinking about. I had the Skyseer in my mind due to its relation to the Dreaming and Bleak Gate, but the Vekeshi Mystic works better with his early training (and later being able to join on the hunt later on). I'll cut the Skyseer parts.
<div class="messageboard-quotee">Quote:</div><blockquote>3. You might want to play up the role of Bram Feilding more. Since the R.H.C. recruits each person, he could have been the reason for your selection.</blockquote><p>Yeah, perhaps since Zendross was often visiting and asking about the case and eventually brought in on the periphery of what was going on, he got to see how the R.H.C. works and thus increasing his interest. Zendross also could have made some of his own discoveries and shared them with Bram (pity the fellow was dead by the time the law showed up). Bram saw his potential and reccomended him as a recruit, prior to his retirement (or we could play it that he was still a detective there, but approaching retirement in an "I'm getting too old for this..." fashion).
<div class="messageboard-quotee">Quote:</div><blockquote>4. Something that seems to be missing however is what would tie you to seeing the betterment of Risur. While I understand that he wants to use the R.H.C. resources to find his mother, does he have any indications that she might have any link to Risur at all?</blockquote><p>Zendross has formed something of an attachment to the Reynolds'. They want to remain in Risur, so he wants to make it safe for them.
<div class="messageboard-quotee">Quote:</div><blockquote>5. “He was sent away from the conclave due to the incompatibility of his thirst for vengeance and the Vekesh philosophy.” I would have liked to see you play this up in your character background. What was so bad that your character would have been asked to leave one of his people’s enclaves? I see that your character is listed as Lawful Evil, but so far it appears that he has only attacked or hunted those who have committed crimes against his people or harmed innocents. I’m not sure that follows the bent of Lawful Evil.</blockquote><p>I was keeping things a little short I suppose with the "10 minute" thing making me think to only put in the salient points. Yes he's hunted down those who harmed innocents or committed crimes against his people, but the time between their crime and his vengeance hasn't always been short. For example, some of those he had killed more recently, although were involved in the attacks 10 years ago, have left their life of crime and were living productive normal lives. Although they were never punished for their crime (aside from their own conscience), they were no longer at risk of re-offending. Previously, with the Vekeshi, he was less concerned about "collateral damage" and went towards an "eye for an eye" theme (like, you took my mother, I'll kill yours).The Clockwork Shadow wrote:@Zendross Zil’Doren: Your right, the “10 minute background” takes far longer than ten minutes.

Here is the character I'm submitting. Crunch may be modified a bit (and some bits have yet to be completed).</p>
<p>I went with the Dreamspeaker, Silent Hunter (and am considering Fleet Footed) racial traits rather than the mentioned Lightbringer trait for high elves due to his mystic training and contact with the Dreaming and Bleak Gate.</p>
<p>As for the theme feat, the Skyseer, Spirit Medium, or the Vekeshi Mystic could fit. Since the second one (SM) seems popular, I'll drop it from consideration.</p>
<p>Here follows the "10 minute questions" (although I'd like to know who made up that name for it). Let me know if something needs changing or clarification.

<p>Not that Zendross wants or needs anything, I just want to be sure nothing's left behind.</p>Sorry, I'm a bit confused. Who took what from the corpse? And was anything left behind? I saw the belt, cloak, butler, katana and shuriken. Was the rest (such as the leather armor +3, potion of restoration, and the Wovril Insignia) just tossed into Solniss' pack? What of the other haversack (since you probably can't put a pack into a pack)?

<p>Zendross would have used the insignia as soon as he hit the surface. We have the insignias for ID if necessary. I'm less concerned about darkness as Z has Blind-Fight. One of his tactics, in the past, was to, in a darker situation, cast Deeper Darkness in dim light or darkness to make supernatural darkness (so not even Darkvision works) and fight within that. Of course, tactics will need to change. It's too bad we all have Deeper Darkness but not regular Darkness. It would be nice to stack and get to superdark easier.</p>Ok, back at a computer.
