Inventory
Armor: Leather Weapons: Light Crossbow, 20 bolts, Quarterstaff Readied Items: Quarterstaff Trinkets: Other Items: Herbalism kit, Healer's kit, Manacles, Common clothes with Bleak Cabal badge, belt pouch, Arcane Focus (Small iron 8-pointed star necklace on chain), Scholar's Pack (Includes a backpack, a book of lore, a bottle of ink, an ink pen, 10 sheets of parchment, a little bag of sand, and a small knife)
Background: Faction Bleak Cabal "Bleaker" The multiverse ain't supposed to make sense; there's no grand scheme, no deep meaning, no elusive order. The only truth worth finding lies within. Feature: Nameless. As a Bleaker, you’ve given up your last name, seeing family ties as meaningless. You are welcome to stay in the Mad Bleaker wing of the Gatehouse in the Hive Ward, and you are also welcome to work at a particular soup kitchen somewhere in the Hive or in one of the Gatehouse wings (though you aren’t paid for this). Additionally, you know of a portal, and the key for that portal, that leads to the town ofThe Madhousein Pandemonium, where you are also welcome. Inspiration: Reassurance in the Face of Oblivion. If you gain a point of Inspiration for adhering to your faction philosophy, you may use it to allow an ally (someone other than yourself) to automatically succeed on a save against any effect that requires a Wisdom saving throw. Actions that may earn you Inspiration might include:
Restriction: After each week of downtime you must pass of DC10 Wisdom saving throw or succumb to temporary “Bleaker madness” which lasts either until your downtime period ends or after 1d6+1 days pass, whichever comes first. During this madness you cannot take any activities (downtime activities or otherwise) besides resting; if you do you cannot gain Inspiration until you atone or otherwise prove yourself to your faction's cause (or lack thereof!). History Devis was born in the Prime Material Plane, in one of the realms once forgotten. As a child, out playing in the woods with his friends, he saw a strange light and was drawn toward it. With a flash, he found himself in the Sigil Hive, confused and alone. He barely survived on the streets on his own and neared death. It was only through the mercy of the Bleaker Soup Kitchens that he was able to survive. An old Bleaker named Vex, as wise as he was insane taught him of their ways. One day, Devis joined Vex on a pilgrimage to Pandemonium, the second one for the old man. "Once more into the abyss." he said as they crossed over. In the sprawling, cavernous wasteland they journeyed, until an exiled creature discovered them and brutally murdered Vex. Despite the terror, Devis felt a sudden compassion for this desparate creature. A fierce wind then threatened to destroy them both, but Devis pledged his servitude to the swirling forces if it would spare the creature's life, and thus a pact was formed. Devis was returned to Sigil with his newfound abilities and enlightenment, though unfortunately also more insane than Vex ever was. But despite the madness, or because of it, Devis learned to find the joy of compassion in the meaninglessness of existence. When nothing has meaning, everything has meaning, he came to realize. Then he went back to work in one of the Soup Kitchens. Personality Devis is quite insane. He will periodically ramble on about strange visions he has or general non-sequiturs. But as crazy as he is, he is fiercely determined to help others in need. He carries only the possessions he needs to survive, and any other wealth he finds he gives away, anonymously, and when not adventuring he spends his time working at his factions soup kitchens, or doing other anonymous good deeds. ![]()
![]() Hi. If you're still taking submissions, I'm working up a Bleaker Warlock (likely either Human or Half-Elf, Pact of the Winds). I'll get stats and background up as soon as possible. I'm fairly newly returned to RPGs after many, many years away, but I've got a good handle on 5e (currently playing Sinister Secret of Saltmarsh in another PbP here). I've read up a bit on Planescape and this just seems too fun to pass up. |
