Runelords With A Twist


Advice

Silver Crusade

Hi, I'm running Rise Of The Runelords for a few friends, GMing and playing it. It's just myself and two others, but we're doing gestalt and using Spheres Of Power content. I had this crazy idea for my character to try and add to the world and to the plot.

My character is meant to be a necromancer who is weak, frail, has no memories, and doesn't have control over his magical powers at first.

I'm even having him do a thing in the first fight:
accidentally turn the dog that's killed right before the first encounter at the festival into a burning dog skeleton.
So, who is he? He is Zutha, Runelord Of Gluttony, brought back to life by the three books coming together. However, since none of the Runelords expected Earthfall to be so devastating and to delay them for so long, his original magic and plan has gone awry. He's been brought back with no memories, but knowledge that seems to come and go, like languages, information on different creatures, and even some unexplained foresight to traps and how to disable them. At the same time, he isn't the unique type of undead from before and instead a sort of human with some undead traits.

These are all done through being an Empiricist Psyforensic Investigator/Lichling Soul Weaver, who souls in his Bound Nexus are actually past servants who willing serve him, though he doesn't understand why. As he levels, he remembers more and more and learns to better wield and unlock his original magics.

So, what can I do through the AP to interweave the plot and this character? I have some ideas but I thought I'd ask around and see what comes up. My players are relatively new and learning the world as it comes too. Just please please for the love of the Dawnflower not turn this into a discussion about being a GM and a player...

Let's just pretend that story doesn't exist for the sake of a better plot, yes?
