Dang it, Ok so could I switch to a Deva(elf) since I don't need the eladrin buff to cha? I would have to adjust my backstory a bit but class and crunch should be unaffected.

Background:
Enletharial was born a little over two hundred years ago in an Eladrin conclave. His mother an Eladrin female of great value, ignored him. Though all Eladrin were rare, women were exponentially valuable due to the ability to birth Elven children. When he was ten, his mother was stolen by a mercenary called Alberte the Skave. Enletharial abandoned the conclave searching for his mother alone in a harsh world. After years of searching, he turned his anger to the teachings of Vekesh and learned true patience.
He would bide his time, find his mother, if she lived. If not he would find the progeny of the Skave and have his vengeance. Several years later, he was rightfully inducted as a Vekeshi Mystic, entering the Dream. He could still feel the flames charring his skin to cracking, the hunger eating away his insides while he stared across his cage at a poisoned feast. He nearly ate the stuff to end his suffering. Recovering, he learned patience and real planning, to let go of anger and cling to true vengeance. He would learn to mold himself and others to the hope of all mankind. He would make men better, amplifying their strengths and suppressing their flaws, it was his way to live better as Vekesh taught. For a hundred and four years he lived in Risur, finding a sturdy people who, while not always embracing him, did not cast him out or persecute him. The hard working dockers, the tinkering engineers. His new home town of Flint was full of challenging thinkers and decent hard working people. He enjoyed it here, very rarely being called to act in his mantle of Mystic. The local bar and art scene is what he enjoyed, marvels of science and magic. The old and the new the brave and the bold. He loved this nation and would defend it if called upon. The background for Enletharial. If this is not "in world" enough Gnostic, I'm open to suggestions and critiques. Appearance and personality: Enletharial is tall and thin, with a lithe structure that indicates his nature, his hair is uncommonly dark for a high elf decedent and his eyes shine a healthy green. He normally wears a flowing robe of blue and white.
His personality is that of someone with a love for life. He is kind and passionate, riled to anger at injustice and about subjects and people he cares about. A very curious man, he is interested in the possibility of combining magic and technology together for a more powerful future for the nation of Risur.
Ok this will be the character I'm(Bane88) using. I will be a High Elf Vekeshi Mystic Brown Fur transmuter Arcanist. Some questions about the setting so that I can develop a good and reasonable background. 1) As an elf, whats a good age to be so that I would have not been alive during the fall, but could have been born in a Vekeshi Enclave? Maybe 130? 2)Ideas for a connection to Risur? It seems that Elves that live among humans are sort of pariahs. Which is fine, just wondering if this always the case. 3)While arcanist is an arcane class the Vekeshi Mystic has sort of a divine feel to it. So would anyone mind if I downplayed the I'm a learned scholar angle and up played the Elves are magic angle?
Alright crunch in the alias. Elf Arcanist with the focused study campaign trait. Item creationist and mobile shop. Personality is that of a generally friendly elven tinkerer, a master of many trades and schools of thought. The shaper is a warm person with a cheerful outlook, though not athletically gifted as many of his kin. He also is hedonistic and enjoys wine and fine company a bit to much in that it can distract him from the task at hand. It makes an odd personality a distracted genius, wildly inappropriate inventor. |
