Recruitment is now open for three players. You may submit multiple PCs in case someone else gets your first pick of class.
Where We Are
This is a continuation of play that started with Hollow's Last Hope
Followed by Crown of the Kobold King. This is the sequel to Crown but we needed to level up.
We inserted Wingclipper's Revenge and The Pallid Plague to level up.
Real life got to three of our players in that last module. They were posting at a very slow rate and finally gave up after finishing it.
Rhen Vemsa is our dwarven rogue. He is way into pbp and DMs as well. His post rate and quality is great. He is fun to play with. Do not waste your time building a rogue :-)
What To Expect
One post per day and one over the weekend. I will be somewhat flexible with that. I do have a bag of omnipotence and will use it.
Max HP each level up. You will have the funds available to a PC of your level at each level up. We do not track bar tabs or even loot. You can keep anything you find and use during the module in addition to the level up wealth. Any wealth not spent at level up or during the module is ignored.
The final battle in Wing Clipper's Revenge is indicative of these mods. It was an absolutely epic battle. What did I throw them? CR11 at level 3.
Submit your PC
You are level 5
Purchase mode: 25 points
Wealth: 10,500 gp
HP always max
No third party
traits: 2
When will you know?
Recruitment is open for seven days. Please keep all recruiting discussion and questions here as the primary discussion thread is to be used by players only. Players will have input into the selection process.
Any questions you have are very welcome in recruitment. Let us build a great party.
I guess two questions for start.
1) You say 2 traits. Is there a campaign themed trait pool that one needs to be taken from or is it free game? (Amplifying questions: if there is a campaign trait pool, where can we find it... and if not, would you be adverse to picking one from a different campaign, assuming it was worked into the backstory properly?)
2) Apart from the aforementioned rogue, is there anyone else from the previous campaign coming over to this one?

dotting,
thinking either a sorcerer or cavalier.
Also, as is want of me, I know you said no 3pp, but, would you at least look over this class here? - The machinesmith
I'd love a chance to play it, but understand if you deny it, and will be working under the assumption that it is indeed not allowed.
Emerald, any 2 traits. Not campaign specific.
The rogue is all that remains. So 3 other PCs that can do this module.
rorek55
Post that stuff
Yes. I would back it up with other classes. Just to be safe. That 3rd party looks okay to me. Rhen's input will most likely be decisive.
Hm... depending on what y'all need, I could either draft up an Inspired Blade Swashbuckler or perhaps an alchemist of some variety. Any preference?
I would be very interested in this. I have just now decided to delve into the world of pbp, but I have been playing and GMing D&D, and then Pathfinder, since the early 90's. I am so new to pbp, that I have only read through the tutorials. I have not posted one thing yet, but I am excited to learn and role play the crap out of some characters. I have a pfs half orc archaeologist that I have never played. I have a vine leshy, leshy warden (druid) that I think would be interesting. Or, I could pull a number of other characters from a folder to play. If you choose me, I am committed to posting frequently and in depth. There will be a learnig curve with me, however.
I know you said don't build a rogue, but my favorite class combo is unchained monk with some unchained rogue sprinkled in. He ends up quite tanky and mobile so he can stealth with the dwarf to provide support or go toe to toe with enemies to be front line. I would be building off of Jabari to start. For a psionic variant, Mintash is a high level goal. Mintash was for an eberon game using dreamscarred press for the psionics just FYI.
Alternately, I would probably build either a druid or a bloodrager.
Keep in mind that you have already killed the Kobold King. As this will be his revenge, it is fair to assume you will be facing undead.
@Emerald: None.
@mahuffma: Present one you think would be good for this campaign.
@natloz: Any of those should work.
Is this a campaign that is expected to continue after this module, or will it be ending after this? I have a half orc barbarian/oracle who is aspiring to become a rage prophet. It would be anti-climatic to end before he reaches his apex.
Good question for those interested, mahuffma. No end in sight. The sequel to this is Hungry are the Dead. I have all but chosen a module to follow that one. I will look for player input as we move past these modules.
I will present the half orc barbarian/oracle. Let me know how much information you would like on him this early.
|
I will attempt to put together two offering when I get a chance. I lost a few of my games and to see a GM who has actually done more than one module and continued going on this site feels rare at this point to me. (Most of my games died before level 3 so starting at five would be quite fun.)
I'll probably be throwing in Ranger and potentially a mixed bag character. We'll see soon enough once inspiration falls. The biggest issue is there isn't a good basis to build one's fluff into as this is rather open field for characters.
The characters do not need to exact by any means at this point. The more you put into it, the better it will look. I foresee tweaking them in discussion once chosen.
I will be looking at your history for post rate, post quality and other things. That is more important to me than the build which can modified. I will not rule out giving someone new a chance, however I believe I would lean on a proven player.
Hey, i will read tonight, have dog training now.
The Machine smith is cool, it is similar to this Alchemist
I think you are looking mostly for concept at this point, so I'll submit two characters I created previously. Either can quickly be levelled up to 5th and made to fit your guidelines.
Either is capable as both arcane and healing. The Summoner also comes with a damage dealer built in. Backtories will likely need to be tweaked to fit in with the area your group is in / concept for fitting in.
I think you'll be pleased with my posting history and quality. If anything, I post too often. Past games are linked in my profile.

Born Zoastria Oririe, Zemsta was a happy and care-free child.
Her elven mother, Tiatha, from the Mierani forest, fell in love with a human knight who had taken a quest to defeat a great dragon.
Knights who battle dragons usually meet a certain fate, and this knight was no different. Thought the tryst was short lived, it left a living legacy in Zemsta.
As is usual with elves, Zemsta was shunned due to her heritage. Unable to bear the ridicule, Tiatha took her daughter and moved to Korvosa, entering service at the Calistrean temple.
Growing up around Calistreans made an impression on Zemsta, and she learned to love the beauty and freedom taught by the faith. With her mother's blessing, she entered training for priesthood, eventually entering service as a courtesan.
Zemsta was very successful in this lifestyle, due to her great beauty and exotic appearance. Life was good and appeared as if it would only get better, until one night when a worshipper became violent.
On this particular night, something went wrong with the wards and safeguards in the temple. Either the alarms did not sound, or the listeners were distracted. Zemsta was beaten mercilessly and hovered on the brink of death.
At the boundary between two worlds, a power reached out to her. "If you would live, take my hand. Accept my power, and I will be your protector." Taking the barely seen hand, a sudden glowing warmth filled Zemsta's body, bringing her back from the brink of death. When she became fully aware, a voluptuous, deeply tanned female stood over her with a bloody dagger.
Zemsta eventually healed from the attack, but her health suffered, leaving her weak and unable to copulate without pain. No longer able to serve as a courtesan, and with new powers, the church instead assisted Zemsta in learning about her new powers and in training her to serve the church as an instrument of vengeance.
She took the name Zemsta, a word she found in a text about obscure languages. The word means Vengance, and it felt appropriate.

--------------------
Appearance: Niu is short, and skinny. His hair is long, unkempt, and bleached almost white by the sun. Even though he is young, his skin is dry and leathery, darkened by constant sunburn. His lips are cracked, and his voice is dry and rasping.
Crawling over his arms and shoulders is a large, black scarab that stops occasionally to look at you with eyes that seem to know too much.
Background: Niu was a street urchin from Wati. Coming from a very poor family, his home life was uncertain at best. Like many, the family honored Bes, but his luck never seemed to grace the family. Food was scarce, and his mother Ahmes and father Am would often need to leave Niu alone while they were working.
Niu spent a lot of time on the streets. Begging led to shoplifting and introduced him to members of a street gang of young shoplifters. For a while, Niu had a small measure of happiness until a boy named Kafele, a few years older than Niu, joined the gang.
Kafele chose Niu as a target to prove his superiority, but always couched his bullying as "pranks", so as not to seem as malicious. When he decided to up the ante, Kafele and a small group convinced Niu to go out into the desert with them on a camping trip.
As Niu slept, the boys left, leaving Niu with no supplies. Kafele had convinced the boys that this was a "test". Niu, being inexperienced with desert travel immediately became lost. Wandering the hot desert for hours, he began following a mirage of an oasis. After several more hours, Niu was crawling, incoherent, and nearly dead.
As he lay on the sand, a large scarab crawled over his hand and arm toward his head, and a voice spoke in his head. The scarab, Neb-en-toti had been sent by a distant ancestor, Par-ab-hor, a long dead soceror to teach Niu and save his life.
Grasping for any lifeline, Niu accepted the power, using it to heal himself. Finally able to reach the oasis, Niu found himself with shelter, water, and food, but no knowledge of where he was.
For ten years, Niu lived at the oasis, learning and expanding his powers. At long last, a caravan stopped at the oasis for water. Par-ab-hor bid Niu to follow the caravan back to Wati. "Return! Find me in the tombs!"
Seeing no reason to object, Niu followed at a distance. Now back in Wati, he is looking for a way into the tombs, while harboring dreams of reintroducing himself to Kafele.
I am also more than happy to make a pure damage dealer. I have a couple of concepts tumbling around in my head, but nothing concrete.
Sorry for the walls of text. Here's my Monk/Rogue. There's a basic background and a bunch of crunch.

Racial Abilities
Dim Dweller: Whenever characters with this trait benefit from concealment or full concealment due to darkness or dim light, they gain a +2 racial bonus on Intimidate, Perception, and Stealth checks. They also gain darkvision to a range of 60 ft. This racial trait replaces skilled.
Bonus Feat: Humans select one extra feat at 1st level.
Class Abilities
Weapon and Armor Proficiency
Monks are proficient with the club, crossbow (light or heavy), dagger, handaxe, javelin, kama, nunchaku, quarterstaff, sai, short sword, shortspear, shuriken, siangham, sling, spear, and any weapon with the monk special weapon quality.
Monks are not proficient with any armor or shields.
When wearing armor, using a shield, or carrying a medium or heavy load, a monk loses his AC bonus, as well as his fast movement and flurry of blows abilities.
Rogue gains proficiency in light armor and all simple weapons
AC Bonus (Ex)When unarmored and unencumbered, the monk adds his Wisdom bonus (if any) to his AC and CMD. In addition, a monk gains a +1 bonus to AC and CMD at 4th level. This bonus increases by 1 for every four monk levels thereafter, up to a maximum of +5 at 20th level.
These bonuses to AC apply even against touch attacks or when the monk is flat-footed. He loses these bonuses when he is immobilized or helpless, when he wears any armor, when he carries a shield, or when he carries a medium or heavy load.
Bonus Feat: (Dodge, deflect arrows)
At 1st level, 2nd level, and every 4 levels thereafter, a monk can select a bonus feat. These feats must be taken from the following list: Catch Off-Guard, Combat Reflexes, Deflect Arrows, Dodge, Improved Grapple, Scorpion Style, and Throw Anything. At 6th level, the following feats are added to the list: Gorgon's Fist, Improved Bull Rush, Improved Disarm, Improved Feint, Improved Trip, and Mobility. At 10th level, the following feats are added to the list: Improved Critical, Medusa's Wrath, Snatch Arrows, and Spring Attack. A monk need not have any of the prerequisites normally required for these feats to select them.
Flurry of Blows (Ex)
At 1st level, a monk can make a flurry of blows as a full-attack action. When making a flurry of blows, the monk can make one additional attack at his highest base attack bonus. This additional attack stacks with the bonus attacks from haste and other similar effects. When using this ability, the monk can make these attacks with any combination of his unarmed strikes and weapons that have the monk special weapon quality. He takes no penalty for using multiple weapons when making a flurry of blows, but he does not gain any additional attacks beyond what's already granted by the flurry for doing so. (He can still gain additional attacks from a high base attack bonus, from this ability, and from haste and similar effects).
At 11th level, a monk can make an additional attack at his highest base attack bonus whenever he makes a flurry of blows. This stacks with the first attack from this ability and additional attacks from haste and similar effects.
Stunning Fist (Ex)
At 1st level, the monk gains Stunning Fist as a bonus feat, even if he does not meet the prerequisites. At 4th level, and every 4 levels thereafter, the monk gains the ability to apply a new condition to the target of his Stunning Fist. This condition replaces stunning the target for 1 round, and a successful saving throw still negates the effect. At 4th level, the monk can choose to make the target fatigued. At 8th level, he can make the target sickened for 1 minute. At 12th level, he can make the target staggered for 1d6+1 rounds. At 16th level, he can permanently blind or deafen the target. At 20th level, he can paralyze the target for 1d6+1 rounds. The monk must choose which condition will apply before the attack roll is made. These effects do not stack with themselves (a creature fatigued by Stunning Fist cannot become exhausted if hit by Stunning Fist again), but additional hits do increase the duration.
Unarmed Strike (Ex)
At 1st level, a monk gains Improved Unarmed Strike as a bonus feat. A monk's attacks can be with fists, elbows, knees, and feet. This means that a monk can make unarmed strikes with his hands full. There is no such thing as an off-hand attack for a monk striking unarmed. A monk can apply his full Strength bonus on damage rolls for all his unarmed strikes. A monk's unarmed strikes deal lethal damage, although he can choose to deal nonlethal damage with no penalty on his attack roll. He can make this choice while grappling as well.
A monk's unarmed strike is treated as both a manufactured weapon and a natural weapon for the purpose of spells and effects that enhance or improve either manufactured weapons or natural weapons.
The damage dealt by a monk's unarmed strike is determined by the unarmed damage column on Table 1–2: Monk. The damage listed is for Medium monks.
Unchained Rogue Sneak attack
If a rogue can catch an opponent when he is unable to defend himself effectively from her attack, she can strike a vital spot for extra damage.
The rogue’s attack deals extra damage anytime her target would be denied a Dexterity bonus to AC (whether the target actually has a Dexterity bonus or not), or when the rogue flanks her target. This extra damage is 1d6 at 1st level, and increases by 1d6 every 2 rogue levels thereafter. Ranged attacks can count as sneak attacks only if the target is within 30 feet. This additional damage is precision damage and is not multiplied on a critical hit.
With a weapon that deals nonlethal damage (such as a sap, unarmed strike, or whip), a rogue can make a sneak attack that deals nonlethal damage instead of lethal damage. She cannot use a weapon that deals lethal damage to deal nonlethal damage in a sneak attack—not even with the usual –4 penalty.
The rogue must be able to see the target well enough to pick out a vital spot and must be able to reach such a spot. A rogue cannot sneak attack while striking a creature with total concealment.
Blades from the Shadows (Ex)
At 2nd level, a dark lurker gains shadow strike as a bonus rogue talent. (A character using the unchained rogue class instead gains the ability to make attacks of opportunity against foes with cover, though not foes with improved cover or total cover).
At 6th level, the dark lurker can deal precision damage to targets with total concealment (though any miss chance applies normally, and may prevent an attack from hitting in the first place).
This ability replaces evasion; the dark lurker can take evasion as a rogue talent.
Trapfinding
A rogue adds 1/2 her level on Perception checks to locate traps and on Disable Device checks (minimum +1). A rogue can use Disable Device to disarm magic traps.
Finesse Training (Ex)
At 1st level, a rogue gains Weapon Finesse as a bonus feat. In addition, starting at 3rd level, she can select any one type of weapon that can be used with Weapon Finesse (such as rapiers or daggers). Once this choice is made, it cannot be changed. Whenever she makes a successful melee attack with the selected weapon, she adds her Dexterity modifier instead of her Strength modifier to the damage roll. If any effect would prevent the rogue from adding her Strength modifier to the damage roll, she does not add her Dexterity modifier. The rogue can select a second weapon at 11th level and a third at 19th level.
Feats
Accomplished Sneak Attacker(Ex)
You add 1d6 to your sneak attack damage.
Your number of sneak attack dice cannot exceed half your character level (rounded up).
Blind-Fight(Ex)
In melee, every time you miss because of concealment (see Combat), you can reroll your miss chance percentile roll one time to see if you actually hit.
An invisible attacker gets no advantages related to hitting you in melee. That is, you don’t lose your Dexterity bonus to Armor Class, and the attacker doesn’t get the usual +2 bonus for being invisible. The invisible attacker’s bonuses do still apply for ranged attacks, however.
You do not need to make Acrobatics skill checks to move at full speed while blinded.
[i[Combat Reflexes (Ex)[/i]
You may make a number of additional attacks of opportunity per round equal to your Dexterity bonus. With this feat, you may also make attacks of opportunity while flat-footed.
Deflect Arrows
You must have at least one hand free (holding nothing) to use this feat. Once per round when you would normally be hit with an attack from a ranged weapon, you may deflect it so that you take no damage from it. You must be aware of the attack and not flat-footed. Attempting to deflect a ranged attack doesn’t count as an action. Unusually massive ranged weapons (such as boulders or ballista bolts) and ranged attacks generated by natural attacks or spell effects can’t be deflected.
Dodge
+1 dodge bonus to AC
Weapon Finesse
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.
Equipment: Bracers of Armor +2; ring of protection +1; Amulet of Mighty Fists +1
I've been on the boards for a while. Most of the games I have been in have fallen apart due to DM issues or are moving really slow. I'm usually checking games from my phone all during the day so I can post whenever.
I'm working on getting a druid built up as an alternate at the moment.
Rhen, was the dog able to teach you anything?
So still working on details like feats, traits, discoveries, and gear... but here is my submission: Mala Alam, drow Alchemist (Chirurgeon/Sacred Alchemist archetypes) in service of Sarenrae.
Have a two paragraph backstory that explains that, but to summarize she was originally a human cleric of Sarenrae that died trying to save a group of druids from an illness that their magics weren't working against. The druids reincarnated her, but for whatever reason when she came back 1) she was now a drow, and 2) Sarenrae no longer answered her prayers directly the way a cleric would expect. Still faithful, turns to alchemy to continue aiding the sick in her goddess' name... and along the course of her studies is able to come up with a serum that temporarily can restore her ability to call upon Sarenrae for aid.
Like I said, still working on some of the details but I think I have provided enough to get a sense of where I am going with her.
I am a bad learner and the dog taught me nothing, entries are looking good.
A question that I had not thought about until recently: were you guys using the background skills system from Unchained or the standard one?
Unchained

I do have a question to ask, as it does effect a ranger quiet heavily. Dragon Hunter...would it be useful? You give up I think all Favored Enemy for pure Dragon hatred and if it's not really good, then almost no point in taking it.

Mala is coming along nicely... background skills, feats, traits, and discoveries are all added in. Need to pick my formulae for my book and gear at this point, but I think there is enough in there that you can tell how I plan on playing her. (You get a healing elixir, and you get a healing elixir, and YOU get a healing elixir!) Let me know if you have any questions, comments, or concerns. I will continue to work on the last things I am missing.
Naomi is from Falcons Hollow. She grew up as a fun loving and adventurous girl. One day, she pleaded her betrothed to venture into to the Darkwood with her. This proved to be a mistake as the two were attacked by a strange Bear. It was larger and quicker than your average Darkwood Bear. Naomi was wounded and her betrothed told her to run while he bought her some time. The last he heard of his was his screams in the distance.
When she returned, few people believed her story as the body of her betrothed was never found. Rumors spread that she had murdered him. Naomi withdrew herself from the company of others becoming something of a young spinster.
Not long after the ordeal Naomi began to notice changes in herself. Her hair had grown thicker and rougher. Her nails grew at an alarming pace. Her transformation pushed her further from her community. But perhaps it is time to bring her new self into the light...
Naomi is a Human Shifter with the Weretouched Archetype.
I'll do a full build if selected but so far I'm not planning on anything too outlandish mechanically. A claw based front liner with loads of HP, some DR and is occasionally a Bear.
Jing, our previous ranger took the scout Guide archetype. I thought that was very good in that you get to choose a favored enemy every day.
https://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/core-classes/ranger/archetypes/paizo-range r-archetypes/guide
Dragon hunter has some good pluses that kind of make up for the favored enemy.
Totally your call and can absolutely be tweaked in discussion prior to game play.
SkaTalon, nice background. We had a run in with a young girl werewolf in our first module. The PCs had fallen in love with her and could not harm her even though she would kill them. Very interesting how that one played out.
Aye she has a place in me heart, I will be trainin' her in me ways. haha
@GM
How do you feel about Bloodrager into Dragon Disciple? It doesn’t conflict per se, but dragon disciple was written before Bloodrager so it requires some GM interpretation on a number of points.
Our previous front line was a Bloodrager. He could cast enlarge and had a reach weapon. I botted him in battle once. Fun, but easy to make mistakes and there was one or two times where he did miscalculate. I have no problem with complexities.
I can up grade this one to 5th pretty easy. The backstory was for RotRL but was not picked.
Thank you, Grulyn.
A quick overview at this time:
A very brief and not thorough look at your "online reputations" appears to me that everyone who has submitted is well entrenched.
mahuffma has not had a chance to play pbp yet. I would like to give him that. Being said, 1st time players usually get their start with first time GMs. That is not an issue for me, so all are in the running from my standpoint.
We have 8 players making submissions, so the dreaded you are not chosen will occur.
I hope to let the players do the choosing so that the party is a player decision just like in game decisions. I will override if I see something I do not like about a player's history in other campaigns. So far that is not the case.
Thank you all for your interest in this campaign. It will be a good one. It will be challenging as well. I always run a simulation well before running a module online and this one is particularly tough as is the next one.
Rhen,
Your ways of near death experiences? Oh, you came so close several times. LOL.
Post that stuff, Mr 6,083 posts.
Rhen, we are lucking out on recruitment. But, well deserved IMO. We do have a good thing going. Looks like it will only get better.
Good luck, everyone!
It has been a slog at times which is fun, I am liking this character and would like some company on the coming mission, I don't want to have to do it alone.
I think you are looking mostly for concept at this point, so I'll submit two characters I created previously. Either can quickly be levelled up to 5th and made to fit your guidelines.
Either is capable as both arcane and healing. The Summoner also comes with a damage dealer built in. Backtories will likely need to be tweaked to fit in with the area your group is in / concept for fitting in.
I think you'll be pleased with my posting history and quality. If anything, I post too often. Past games are linked in my profile.
** spoiler omitted **...
Both of these concepts are only lvl 3 and 2, what can they do at 5th?
@ Igar - How much of a dungeon crawl in the classical sense is this module?
Rhen, similar to Crown. Outdoors first, then a crawl.
Here is a work in progress of my proposed character. I still have a bit to go on him, but wanted to get him out there.

I'll level them both up to 5 so you can see. Perhaps I misunderstood that the concept was the important part. It should only take a few minutes.
I think they both have campaign traits for the AP they were originally created for, so I'll have to swap those out.

I'll be using the same name as my other post but I thought of a different concept that might be a lot of fun and could do some serious damage while still being interesting to play. I'll try and finish up the actual gear another time but I put in the big items. The rest would just be adventuring mundane gear with 700gp leftover.
I'll be sure to get a decent backstory in soon.
Here are the characters as modified for this campaign.
I still need to select a couple of spells for Niu and make purchases, but that is minor.
I just noticed that Kitt the Eidolon's stats weren't in the spoiler. I'm adding it as a separate block Note that Kitt the Eidolon's AC is before Mage Armor and Shield.

Born Zoastria Oririe, Zemsta was a happy and care-free child.
Her elven mother, Tiatha, from the Mierani forest, fell in love with a human knight who had taken a quest to defeat a great dragon.
Knights who battle dragons usually meet a certain fate, and this knight was no different. Thought the tryst was short lived, it left a living legacy in Zemsta.
As is usual with elves, Zemsta was shunned due to her heritage. Unable to bear the ridicule, Tiatha took her daughter and moved to Korvosa, entering service at the Calistrean temple.
Growing up around Calistreans made an impression on Zemsta, and she learned to love the beauty and freedom taught by the faith. With her mother's blessing, she entered training for priesthood, eventually entering service as a courtesan.
Zemsta was very successful in this lifestyle, due to her great beauty and exotic appearance. Life was good and appeared as if it would only get better, until one night when a worshipper became violent.
On this particular night, something went wrong with the wards and safeguards in the temple. Either the alarms did not sound, or the listeners were distracted. Zemsta was beaten mercilessly and hovered on the brink of death.
At the boundary between two worlds, a power reached out to her. "If you would live, take my hand. Accept my power, and I will be your protector." Taking the barely seen hand, a sudden glowing warmth filled Zemsta's body, bringing her back from the brink of death. When she became fully aware, a voluptuous, deeply tanned female stood over her with a bloody dagger.
Zemsta eventually healed from the attack, but her health suffered, leaving her weak and unable to copulate without pain. No longer able to serve as a courtesan, and with new powers, the church instead assisted Zemsta in learning about her new powers and in training her to serve the church as an instrument of vengeance.
She took the name Zemsta, a word she found in a text about obscure languages. The word means Vengance, and it felt appropriate.

Appearance: Niu is short, and skinny. His hair is long, unkempt, and bleached almost white by the sun. Even though he is young, his skin is dry and leathery, darkened by constant sunburn. His lips are cracked, and his voice is dry and rasping.
Crawling over his arms and shoulders is a large, black scarab that stops occasionally to look at you with eyes that seem to know too much.
Background: Niu was a street urchin from Wati. Coming from a very poor family, his home life was uncertain at best. Like many, the family honored Bes, but his luck never seemed to grace the family. Food was scarce, and his mother Ahmes and father Am would often need to leave Niu alone while they were working.
Niu spent a lot of time on the streets. Begging led to shoplifting and introduced him to members of a street gang of young shoplifters. For a while, Niu had a small measure of happiness until a boy named Kafele, a few years older than Niu, joined the gang.
Kafele chose Niu as a target to prove his superiority, but always couched his bullying as "pranks", so as not to seem as malicious. When he decided to up the ante, Kafele and a small group convinced Niu to go out into the desert with them on a camping trip.
As Niu slept, the boys left, leaving Niu with no supplies. Kafele had convinced the boys that this was a "test". Niu, being inexperienced with desert travel immediately became lost. Wandering the hot desert for hours, he began following a mirage of an oasis. After several more hours, Niu was crawling, incoherent, and nearly dead.
As he lay on the sand, a large scarab crawled over his hand and arm toward his head, and a voice spoke in his head. The scarab, Neb-en-toti had been sent by a distant ancestor, Par-ab-hor, a long dead soceror to teach Niu and save his life.
Grasping for any lifeline, Niu accepted the power, using it to heal himself. Finally able to reach the oasis, Niu found himself with shelter, water, and food, but no knowledge of where he was.
For ten years, Niu lived at the oasis, learning and expanding his powers. At long last, a caravan stopped at the oasis for water. Par-ab-hor bid Niu to follow the caravan back to Wati. "Return! Find me in the tombs!"
Seeing no reason to object, Niu followed at a distance. Now back in Wati, he is looking for a way into the tombs, while harboring dreams of reintroducing himself to Kafele.
