Growing up in an orphanage in Magnimar, Finn quickly became a child of the streets learning to beg and steal for his food, living of his wits and quick tongue. When he was caught red-handed stealing food from a local gambler, Truman Longfellow, the man took pity on him and taught him the grift instead. Finn and Truman took their act all over Varisia -- baiting, switching and swindling folks here and there, and just earning enough to live. After swindling one family from their home and farm, and watching them slowly starve and die in a harsh winter, Finn started to have second thoughts about the gambler's life. Leaving Truman in the dark of night, Finn went out on his own, looking to make recompense for those he had wronged. By the intervention of Desna, he was granted some ability to share his luck with others aiding them in minor ways, and has since been on the road, wandering, and doing good. He still looks for the the "big" good deed he can do to provide penance for his years of lying and stealing.

With the new Cathedral built in nearby Sandpoint, Finn felt compelled to go pay his respects to his patron deity. He is not a formally trained cleric in the priesthood and so will likely have conflict with the "ordained" clergy.

Lucky Finn is a tall man with brown hair, long in the back, and dark eyes. A scar from his youth runs along his right cheek, where a guardsman gave him a harsh lesson. He has innate luck which he can transfer to others divinely. His sense of humor is well develop as is his sense of others and silver-tongue, having often talked his way out of trouble. He detests lying and cheating and will act with honesty in most situations. He isn't a paladin, but is on a self-driven quest to do "good" and will take that opportunity if it presents. He is still a bit baffled by his healing (which is an extension of his luck, in my interpretation) and has no formal training in the religion of Desna, but looks at her as Lady Luck. He often is seen flipping a coin or rolling a dice or playing cards, as a way to pass the time.

I can post daily without trouble as I run several games on the boards. I am quite familiar with the AP so if you don't choose me I understand. I can separate IC/OOC knowledge and look forward to the opportunity to experience ROTRL as a player. I hope to do a lot of RP, not just tactical moves but that kind of depends on the group. I am in US Central time zone (Nashville TN area) and usually post in the evenings after my family has gone to bed. I do travel a good bit for my work, but will still read and post when on the road. Hope you give Lucky some consideration! Thanks!

Taiglin is a very young elf, his mother is a cleric of Desna and his father is an elven archer. Being his father's oldest child, Taiglin has had intensive training in the bow and sword and although he is competent in them, he has always been happier reading and drawing. He has a repuatation for being an excellent artist to his mother's delight. During his studies he came across a language called Thasilonian, which he learned and has become interested in Thassilonian artifacts and writings. Seeing that Varisia is also a favored place of Desna he has undertaken a religious pilgrimage to Sandpoint. He is currently enjoying the sights, trying to find our all he can about the Thassilonians and eking out a living making portraits and paintings. Although he is a fighter, he will eventually pick up levels in Universalist Wizard (his favored class) and then Eldritch Knight.

Agan wants to kill giants, pure and simple. His parents were killed by giants and he has spent years learning how to fight the bastards.

“Will you tally my bill, please?” the odd looking, half-addled elf asked the tavern keeper.

The proprietor of the guest house studied the elf for a moment before finally deciding he was being joked. “That’s a good-un, master elf,” he grinned. “Pleased to meet you, o’course. Name’s—”

“Dunagan Haargrick, naturally. Now, please, tally my charges Master Dunagan. I am in an immense hurry. I have appointments to keep and I am already late.” The elf began rummaging around his pack. “I fear I have misplaced my key. But, I’ve no time to remedy that now. Kindly add the cost to my bill.”

The tavern keeper stared dumbfounded at the insistent elf, finally closing his gaping jaw in a self-conscious grin. “I’m glad ta know my reputation’s preceded me, sir. But, you have me at a disadvantage. What’s your name, and what would you like me to bill you for?”

The elf gave him a stern, bemused look. “For the rent of your less-than-excellent room upstairs, of course. Don’t be foolish, man. I have been your tenant for the last three days!”

The proprietor began to look concerned. “Sadly, not mine, lord! Best I know, you’ve just arrived! I never saw you before you just walked in through my door!”

The elf’s impatience faded. He turned and gave the inn a long searching look, and seemed to realize where he was for the first time. “Ah, yes. Then I’ve not yet misplaced your key,” he dropped his pack to the floor. “I shall need your finest room for the next three days. Never mind the introductions, since you were already having been going to do so. And you should go ahead and keep a running tab of my bills. Kindly add the eventual loss of the key to it, so that I’ll be able to pay quickly. I’ll already be late three days hence, and I shouldn’t like to be kept longer. You’ll forgive my comments later about the quality of your rooms. I actually anticipate remembering them fondly… or perhaps I remember looking forward to staying here… Either way, you can be assured no offense is likely to be meant. It is merely a measure of my impatience at my eventual tardiness. You understand, no doubt. It’s always so inconvenient when one can remember clearly the things one has yet to do, but must look forward to the things one has already done. Oh! And it’s a genuine pleasure to make your acquaintance! Did I already say that?”

BACKSTORY
======
Artyom knew he was destined for greatness. All his life, he’s been told that he’s a dead ringer for one of the Azlanti. Growing up in a traveling caravan, he became fascinated with magic. He learned small tricks from anyone and everywhere, his mother in particular. However, his main inspiration for pursuing magic came from the stories of the Thassilonian empire and it’s emperor, Xin. At the age of 5, his mother passed away, leaving him her spellbook and her familiar. When the caravan made stops in any towns, he often went to the library, to research even more information on magic. When he turned 16, he earned enough money to attend the Arcanamirium. While there, he struck up a light romance with a fellow student named Lyrie Akenja. However, she seemed to have left suddenly, never telling Artyom where she was going. Once he passed the entrance exam, he poured into his studies. He researched the Thassilonian empire even further. It was then that he decided to reunite Varisian and to create a new Thassilonian empire, with him as the emperor. When he completed his schooling, he immediately went home to Varisia to study the numerous ruins that dot the landscape. His first stop is Sandpoint.
======
FAMILY
======
Artyom was born to a couple of travelers. His father, Menas, is a cleric of Desna and his mother, Leyli, was a divination wizard. He also has a twin sister, Kaede. His mother passed away when he was five. About 3 years later, his father married another widowed traveler, Canan, an orc bard. Through the marriage, Artyom got an older sister, Zelka Zhen-Marisan, a Tien half-orc ranger. One year later, he got a younger brother, Ausk.
======
RELATIONSHIPS WITH FAMILY
======
Kaede Marisan [Cleric of Desna/Harrower] - Artyom loves his little sister and has risked his life several times to keep her safe. One of their many common interests was Harrowing Decks. She was being trained by their father in the clergy of Desna and in Harrow readings. She was one of the first supporters in Artyom’s dreams. She has also tried to get Artyom to open up to their step-family.
Menas Marisan [Cleric of Desna/Spherewalker] - Artyom’s relationship with his father has gotten more strained since his mother’s death. When Artyom expressed interest in following his mother’s footsteps, his father became vehemetly against it. He has tried to force the path of the cleric onto Artyom. Part of the reason Artyom left was to escape the grasp of his father.
Leyli Marisan [Diviner] - Artyom idolized his mom, wanting to learn about magic and wizardry.
Canan Marisan [Bard] - The relationship between Artyom and his step-mother is very awkward. She tries to bond with him, but he often stays silent, gives short answers, or just keeps to himself.
Zeljka Zhen-Marisan [Ranger] - Zeljka doesn’t think much of her half-brother, seeing him as weak because he prefers to use his mind. She often plays as watchful protector or babysitter, because he’s just a “weak human mage”. Artyom, in turn, doesn’t think much of his step-sister due to the fact that she’s part of his second family.
Ausk Marisan [Cleric of Desna/Bard] - Artyom and Ausk haven’t had much interaction with one another due to the fact that Ausk was far more interested in his mother’s and father’s professions while Artyom was more focused on reading, which Ausk finds boring.
======
PERSONALITY
======
Artyom is a prideful man. He knows he has skill and he will use that skill to achieve his dreams of a new Thassilon. He can come across as disinterested, often reading over his spellbook. However, deep down inside, Artyom does care and want to do good in the world. When he comes across a priest of Desna, he becomes defensive due to the forced will of his father.

Alertness (Ex) When the familiar is within 5 feet of it’s Master, the Master gains +2 on Perception and Sense Motive skill checks
Empathic Link (Su) The master has an empathic link with his familiar to a 1 mile distance. The master can communicate empathically with the familiar, but cannot see through its eyes. Because of the link's limited nature, only general emotions can be shared. The master has the same connection to an item or place that his familiar does.
Improved Evasion (Ex) When subjected to an attack that normally allows a Reflex saving throw for half damage, a familiar takes no damage if it makes a successful saving throw and half damage even if the saving throw fails.
Share Spells The wizard may cast a spell with a target of “You” on his familiar (as a touch spell) instead of on himself. A wizard may cast spells on his familiar even if the spells do not normally affect creatures of the familiar's type (magical beast).

Slaynn has have had it with the unfairness of life.

Over the years he's seen his human friends and even dwarves die from natural courses helped along by Giants.

His heart already torn asunder by the uncountable times he's being too late to offer help being the only silent witness to destroyed villages a survivor or failed ambushes, he now has come to Sandpont hearing of giants rumors, seeking like minded allies to grow stronger and end their threat once and for all.

Sure He's a little frail to be a fighter but his strength comes from his heart and not his strongarm and even then nothing a bit of concentration or good ale can help.

Xzylvador
Born 124 years ago in Iadara, the capitol of the ancestral Elven homeland Kyonin, Xzylvador grew up free of care and in wealth and prosperity, sheltered from the outside world.

Even at early age he showed a remarkable intellect, always eager to learn and quick to understand. He constantly asked questions about anything that piqued his curiosity and everything interested him. Often not simply accepting the answers his elders gave him unless explained in great detail, the young boy spent much time looking for his own solutions to the puzzles life lay before him. More than anything else, this stubborn refusal to accept things without question shaped the path that lied ahead of him.
Along with above-average intelligence, Xzylvador also showed an aptitude for magic. When the time came and he was old enough, he started tutelage in a school of wizardry and arcane research to properly learn the art of magic.

Much to the satisfaction of his tutors and family, he progressed quickly and showed great promise. So much, in fact, that he was accepted into the Apprentices of the Seers Circle, a prestigious school specialized in the most respected magical art among the elves: Divination.
Xzylvador listened, studied, learned and understood more than was expected of him but never stopped asking for more. He kept questioning the most ancient of traditions and dogmas, not ready to accept them and take the answers for granted. It all came down to one great question: if Divination showed the path of Fate, laid out ahead in time and certain and fixed as the present, then what was he to think of Luck and Freedom, the of the most important aspects of the Goddess Desna, matron Deity of the Elves? Unaccustomed to their answers being questioned and possibly even more so to not having a definitive answer to those questions, his teachers and superiors were uncertain how they should handle this most promising but somewhat troublesome student.

And so it happened that soon, after only a short decade of apprenticeship, his teachers and superiors summoned Xzylvador to their council and told him that while he had the talent and skill to achieve great things in the arcane arts, his mind and soul required teaching in a different method than they could provide. They advised him to seek his education elsewhere and advised him to speak to the priests and clerics, perhaps religion could provide him with the answers he sought.

Respectful of their knowledge, he accepted their wise council. But despite the obvious connection a wizard with an interest in theology had with Nethys, God of Magic, Xzylvador instead chose to seek the help and guidance of the clerics and bards of the Goddess Desna, whose domains of Luck, Dreams and Freedom seemed to be the exact opposite of the strict knowledge and certainty offered by his magical specialty.

The priests and clerics of Desna were somewhat surprised by such a strange request. It doesn't happen often that a learned mage apprentice of a respected school drops out to instead seek guidance from what appeared to be its theological counterpart. But being a religion of freedom, they could hardly refuse anyone from choosing his own path and they accepted Xzylvador into the fold.

The course of the young elf's study and apprenticeship with the Church of Desna bore much resemblance to that which he followed with the Apprentices of the Seers Circle. For every answer he was offered, two more questions were asked. The priests were patient and understanding but eventually came to the same conclusion of the diviners. The young priest needed more than lessons and guidance and needed to find answers elsewhere than in dusty old tomes and ancient scrolls.
To satisfy his curiosity and quench his thirst for knowledge and understanding, Xzylvador needed something education could not offer: experience.

Meanwhile, Xzylvador enjoyed the status his family's wealth and his rank own as mage apprentice and diviner provided him with. He loved dressing in the most fancy outfits and enjoying expensive drinks and frequently performed magical tricks or boasted about his accomplishments to impress the ladies. It seemed perhaps a bit shallow, but he felt that was barely a century old and needed to enjoy the freedom that came with youth.
But Xzylvador understood that despite his intellect and studies, he actually knew very little about what life outside of the city was like. He'd spent much time bent over old scrolls and tomes but felt he could learn so much more by doing new and exciting things, meeting and talking to people. After a century even the big city started to feel small and he wondered about what lay beyond its immediate surroundings. Of course he'd read books, dozens if not hundreds, about places and people far away, some not even on this plane. But Xzylvador felt he'd never truly understand these things without going there and witnessing the things his mind could not imagine.

Wasn't Desna also the Godess of Travel? Goddess of the Stars even. Imagine traveling that far...
So when the time came that the clerics told Xzylvador he should head out into the world and seek experience through action and travel instead of lecture and prayer, he couldn't be more relieved. And because he had been ordained to do so by his superiors, his departure wouldn't embarrass his family, in fact, they supported him.

So he set out to leave the school, the temple and the city he grew up in. He had no goal or destination. He would learn to understand the paradox between Fate and Chance by letting them decide where his journey would take him.

And that appears to be Sandpoint. Taking random paths, following his gut feeling and allowing things like flocks of birds, the direction of the win, the position of the stars and the color of nature to guide his way, he came into town some time ago and his desire to travel faded. There appeared to be nothing pulling him away from here, in fact he felt the opposite. It seems to him Fate (or is it Chance?) wants Xzylvador to be here.

You are trained in using your agility in melee combat, as opposed to brute strength.

Benefit: With a light weapon, elven curve blade, rapier, whip, or spiked chain made for a creature of your size category, you may use your Dexterity modifier instead of your Strength modifier on attack rolls. If you carry a shield, its armor check penalty applies to your attack rolls.

Special: Natural weapons are considered light weapons.

LeRose was the odd duck of his family, drawn to art and adventure. At a young age he left home and set out for Magnimar. There he was able to find a culture that embraced art and beauty. His more adventurist streak led him to join the church of Shelyn.

Though he had a natural talent for swordsmanship it did not suit him much. Instead he spent a lot of his time in the local inn. Subtly preaching his gospel through poetry and tales of adventure.

He became well known as a charismatic face for the church in the more seedy areas of town that most "Decent folk" of the church refused to go to.

Though LeRose no longer like to talk about it, he was asked by his church to root out a necromantic cult posing as doctors within the city. He brought in a perpetrator alive and was then asked to execute him. This went against the tenants that he fought for but he caved to the pressure and did it. The next day he left the church.

Now he has set himself to wander. Letting Shelyn guide him, by luck during his day and by dreams during his nights.

I went with Shelyn as my god of choice because I loved the tennants laid out here http://www.pathfindercommunity.net/gods-of-golarion/Shelyn

Paladins of Shelyn

Paladins of Shelyn are peaceable promoters of art and beauty. They see the ugliness in evil, even when cloaked in the form of beauty, and their job is to prevent the weak and foolish from being seduced by false promises.

Their tenets include:

I am peaceful. I come first with a rose. I act to prevent conflict before it blossoms.

I never strike first, unless it is the only way to protect the innocent.

I accept surrender if my opponent can be redeemed—and I never assume that they cannot be. All things that live love beauty, and I will show beauty's answer to them.

I will never destroy a work of art, nor allow one to come to harm unless greater art arises from its loss. I will only sacrifice art if doing so allows me to save a life, for untold beauty can arise from an awakened soul.

I see beauty in others. As a rough stone hides a diamond, a drab face may hide the heart of a saint.

I lead by example, not with my blade. Where my blade passes, a life is cut short, and the world's potential for beauty is lessened.

I live my life as art. I will choose an art and perfect it. When I have mastered it, I will choose another. The works I leave behind make life richer for those who follow.

LeRose is also more socially aware then most paladins. He is not opposed to drinking a bit (Never drunk) and he accepts that some people have their vices and evils but he would rather stand by people and help guide them out then condemn them.

One thing he can not stand and will not put up with is abuse of women, children, and the helpless.

His art is poetry, though I am no good at it so I will be borrowing heavily from RL writers and claiming them for LeRose.

Against undead/evil he will use his elven blade but against normal humans and the misguided he will use the training blade to deliver non-lethal attacks.

LeRose stared back at the elven woman and cracked a wide charming smile.

"You are as observant as your are lovely. Yes, I hardly use the elven blade, I would rather not take lives. Some may consider this a weakness, perhaps it is, but I feel as though my faith should not be used as a weapon but worn as armor instead."

He drew out the curved elven blade, feeling its edge with his finger, letting it cut slightly into his finger to show the sharpness.

"A great poet once said:

No man is an island,
Entire of itself.

LeRose's smile faded and he became rather serious.

Each is a piece of the continent,
A part of the main.
If a clod be washed away by the sea,
Golarion is the less."

He placed the blade back into the scabbard.

"As well as if a promontory were.
As well as if a manor of thine own
Or of thine friend's were.
Each man's death diminishes me,
For I am involved in mankind."

LeRose looked deeply and seriously into the elven woman's eyes with just a hint of sadness.

"Therefore, send not to know
For whom the bell tolls,
It tolls for thee."

He paused for a moment, coughed and then his charming smile returned.

Kamak grew among the Shoanti, on Shundar-Quah tribe. He was destined to be one of the "diplomats with the paradises" (members of the Shoanti chosen to deal diplomatically with outsiders). Since childhood he was guided to understand the other plans beyond the material world, to understand the nature of the rituals and forms of relating with the creatures that come from there.
Their proud parents had been "diplomats with the paradises" before him. However, Kamak had more interest for the "shadows and dreams", how the darkness could be useful to obtain knowledge through stealth techniques. Sometimes he invaded meetings and community homes to train his abilities and to discover the secrets. Kamak had been always very curious. To his parents' despair he used their knowledge to develop arcane abilities, not divines. In this way he learned how to use the rituals and the ancestral music from your culture for her own benefit.
Regardless of his actions, the Kamak´s heart was kind and he always had been worried with others, but, the curiosity and understanding of the magic were who motivated him. Consequently he has gradually been excluded from the choices of elders. Was banned to participate from important rituals (what didn't impede her of participating discreetly, stealthy).

The great disaster of his life came when one of the leaders of Sklar-Quah (another Shoanti tribe) was in a tense meeting to solve if there would be a response to attack from the forces of Cheliax. He furtively came in that conclave but he was discovered by the guards, causing a great agitation and complaints of a possible espionage arose. So the meeting was immediately canceled. After that event, rather than being delivered as a prisoner to Sklar-Quah, Kamak was condemned to the exile. At that moment began his days in search of new discoveries and mysteries, but he could never look back into the eyes of their parents again. From that moment on, he maintaining the pride to be a Shoanti, but didn't belong any more to any place. The black eye has been following him since.

--------------------
Traits
--------------------
Planar Savant You have always had an innate sense of the workings of the planes and their denizens. You may use your Charisma modifier when making Knowledge (planes) checks instead of your Intelligence modifier.
Eager Performer Hearing that Sandpoint had a theater rivaling those found in large cities like Magnimar and Korvosa, you decided to try your luck getting stage time there. After sending a letter to Cyrdak Drokkus requesting an audition and not hearing back, you’ve taken it upon yourself to travel to Sandpoint and meet him in person, trusting your force of will and charming inf luence will get you what you want. You gain a +1 trait bonus on checks for any one Perform skill. Additionally, choose any one spell of the enchantment school; its save DC increases by +1.
--------------------
Class
--------------------
Master of Deception (Ex)
A sandman gains a bonus equal to half his level on Bluff, Sleight of Hand, and Stealth checks. He may also disarm magical traps with Disable Device as a rogue’s trapfinding ability.
*Bardic Performance*
A bard is trained to use the Perform skill to create magical effects on those around him, including himself if desired. He can use this ability for a number of rounds per day equal to 4 + his Charisma modifier. At each level after 1st a bard can use bardic performance for 2 additional rounds per day. Starting a bardic performance is a standard action, but it can be maintained each round as a free action. A bardic performance cannot be disrupted, but it ends immediately if the bard is killed, paralyzed, stunned, knocked unconscious, or otherwise prevented from taking a free action to maintain it each round. A bard cannot have more than one bardic performance in effect at one time. Each bardic performance has audible components, visual components, or both. At 7th level, a bard can start a bardic performance as a move action instead of a standard action. At 13th level, a bard can start a bardic performance as a swift action.
Countersong (Su) At 1st level, a bard learns to counter magic effects that depend on sound (but not spells that have verbal components.) Each round of the countersong he makes a Perform (keyboard, percussion, wind, string, or sing) skill check. Any creature within 30 feet of the bard (including the bard himself) that is affected by a sonic or language-dependent magical attack may use the bard's Perform check result in place of its saving throw if, after the saving throw is rolled, the Perform check result proves to be higher. If a creature within range of the countersong is already under the effect of a non-instantaneous sonic or language-dependent magical attack, it gains another saving throw against the effect each round it hears the countersong, but it must use the bard'sPerform skill check result for the save. Countersong does not work on effects that don't allow saves. Countersong relies on audible components.
Distraction (Su) At 1st level, a bard can use his performance to counter magic effects that depend on sight. Each round of the Distraction, he makes a Perform (act, comedy, dance, or oratory) skill check. Any creature within 30 feet of the bard (including the bard himself) that is affected by an illusion (pattern) or illusion (figment) magical attack may use the bard’s Perform check result in place of its saving throw if, after the saving throw is rolled, thePerform check result proves to be higher. If a creature within range of the Distraction is already under the effect of a non-instantaneous illusion (pattern) or illusion (figment) magical attack, it gains another saving throw against the effect each round it sees the Distraction, but it must use the bard’s Perform check result for the save. Distraction does not work on effects that don’t allow saves. Distraction relies on visual components.
Fascinate (Su) At 1st level, a bard can use his performance to cause one or more creatures to become fascinatedwith him. Each creature to be fascinated must be within 90 feet, able to see and hear the bard, and capable of paying attention to him. The bard must also be able to see the creatures affected. The Distraction of a nearby combat or other dangers prevents the ability from working. For every three levels a bard has attained beyond 1st, he can target one additional creature with this ability.
Each creature within range receives a Will save (DC 10 + 1/2 the bard’s level + the bard’s Cha modifier) to negate the effect. If a creature’s saving throw succeeds, the bard cannot attempt to fascinate that creature again for 24 hours. If its saving throw fails, the creature sits quietly and observes the performance for as long as the bard continues to maintain it. While fascinated, a target takes a –4 penalty on skill checks made as reactions, such asPerception checks. Any potential threat to the target allows the target to make a new saving throw against the effect. Any obvious threat, such as someone drawing a weapon, casting a spell, or aiming a weapon at the target, automatically breaks the effect. Fascinate is an enchantment (compulsion), mind-affecting ability. Fascinate relies on audible and visual components in order to function.
Stealspell (Su) A sandman can use performance to steal spells from his foes and add them to his list of spells known. Once the performance is started, the bard can steal a prepared spell or a spell known from another creature with a touch attack as astandard action. The target receives a Will save (DC 10 + 1/2 the bard’s level + the bard’s Cha bonus) to negate the effect. The sandman may choose a spell to steal, but if the target does not possess the spell, the bardic performance immediately ends. Otherwise the spell stolen is random, but it is always of the highest level that the bard can cast, if possible. The target loses the prepared spell or spell known and the sandman adds it to his list of spells known for as long as the performance continues, after which it reverts to the original recipient. While stolen, the bard can cast the spell using his available spell slots. This use does not consume the stolen spell. If the bard steals another spell while a spell is stolen, the previous spell immediately reverts to its original owner. This ability requires visual components. This performance replaces inspire courage.

--------------------
Griffo was born and raised on the road and has never known much of a permanent home. His family, a halfling couple and a collection of odd unrelated "relatives", headed for the wild and free lands of Varisia after escaping slavery in the oppresive diabolical regime in Cheliax. The migration from bondage to freedom took quite a few years with the halflings trying to keep as low a profile as possible. They lived off the land, performed odd jobs, and made do with whatever they could, leaving Griffo with a deep appreciation for desperation, resourcefulness, and adventure. Because that's what it was to them all - a grand adventure as well as a quest for freedom.
When the group finally made it to Varisia, they mostly settled down in farmlands outside of Magnimar for a much deserved rest, the adventure over. But Griffo, still in his youth, wanted to see still more of the region. He caught wind of Sandpoint's Swallowtail Festival and thought that would be a fantastic event to go see. And so he arrived in Sandpoint. . .
