Ok. Finally done with Draniliss. I hope he makes it in.


Yes, Draniliss will be a switch-hitter with a ranged focus.


I'd like to offer Dranillis as a submission. He's an Elven Inquisitor of Desna.


Quote:
Desna does not really have a dogma. She's a chaotic goddess of “find your own way.” According to the Faiths of Purity book, that's exactly what her devout do.

Dogma might have been the wrong word. He was tutored in the faith's tenants and taboos. Desna does not require much from those who would call upon her for divine aid, but she does require something.

Quote:
So, Inquisitor of Desna... fighting monsters that attack travelers? That I can see. And protecting travelers as well. What do you plan on doing with him for the other seventeen levels? How do you seem him progressing as a character?

Frankly I see him growing in his faith. In the beginning, Draniliss is more concerned about his martial duties, but as time goes and he experiences more, he'll begin to open up to Desna'a softer side.


I'll offer up Draniliss for this game. He's an elven inquisitor of Desna. It's his mandate to keep the roads and waves safe for travelers.

This is a flexible build, but I see him as a ranged striker with skill monkey tendencies. He'll most probably remain an inquisitor all 17 levels.

His background can easily be modified to have befriended any of the main NPC's, but I was thinking Koya and taking Friend of the Family. They had a 'youthful tryst' and have remained friends through the years.

Hu5tru:
You should know that I am currently in a game of Jade Regent already on these boards. I'm not trying to cheat, but to hedge my bets against a game folding. I have done the same thing on this and other boards I've been on and it has not been a problem as I am cautious about meta gaming. It works for me because each new group makes for an entirely different experience. If this is problem for you, I understand and will quietly lurk. Thank you for your consideration.


Was able to put some more work into Dranliss:

Dranilis is a monster hunter and protector of elvenkind.
Dranliss' parents were traveling merchants. He grew up traveling the coast of Varisia from Korvosa to Magnimar. When his mother was killed in a pirate attack, his father decided to retire. Dranliss took over his father's business, but was not as successful at it. Though he was good with numbers, he was not as good with people. What's more, he did not like it. During what was to be his last trip, Dranliss befriended a cleric of Desna who tutored him in her dogma. The two of them traveled and adventured together for three years before Dranliss received a vision that lead him to the casino.


I still have much work to do here, but I wanted to get my submission in before the deadline. I've been in three other Second Darkness games that have all died about the point you have us starting.
I play Bryson in your savage tide in your game.
