![]() The character in question is one Atherton Dram, a rogue who made a living as sort of a free-lance middle-man in Korvosa. He started to scale back on his criminal pursuits when he met a young woman with whom he fell in love. Angry that Dram had betrayed him by no longer taking work, Lamm had Atherton's lover killed and then approached Atherton, offering sympathy and convincing Atherton that one of Lamm's rivals had been responsible. Atherton killed the man who Lamm told him was responsible and has for the last several years felt something of a debt owed to Lamm, unaware that Lamm was actually the man who killed his lover. That's basically the gist of it; the character is on my old account, so his profile should still be accessible. ![]()
![]() Hey all, it is Arctaris, posting from a new account as I lost access to the email address associated with the old one.
And ironically the post monster decided to eat the first post I've made in a close to a year. Go figure. EDIT: Though I don't think you know me, my thoughts are with you DMs. ![]()
![]() Here's one of the many character concepts I have. I can work him out to be either a rogue or a cleric or druid, dpending on what the group needs more. I can also come up with something else, if he doesn't quite fit in. Spoiler: Zelazny is, for the most part, nothing more than a handsome ne're-do-well who lives to enjoy the pleasures of life. Looking at him, one would be more inclined to call him a wealthy traveler, or perhaps a minor noble rather than a drifter, for he has a fondness for emulating the traits of the upper class. However, lurking beneath his happy go lucky out look is a constant fear.
Zelazny should have died several years ago after a traveling companion and partner in crime stabbed him and left him for dead in the wilderness. Hopelessly lost and badly injured, Zelazny jumped at the deal offered to him by the fae creature that chanced upon him: in exchange for saving his life and giving him good luck, he would perform three tasks for his savior and, at the end of the third task, he would have a year and a day before his luck (and, more than likely, his life) ran out. He's happily wandered the world for the last several years, enjoying his renewed life and good luck, always trying to ignore the fear that the end is nearing. However, as portents of change whisper across Varisia, his final tasks may be at hand. Zel is basically a decent and easy going fellow, although not beyond more extreme acts if he felt that they could preserve his life. He potentially has a very good reason to help Sandpoint and his fellow hereos to be. Being more of a diplomat and a master of fighting dirty, I'm thinking of going rogue with him, possibly mixing in a few levels of bard at some point.

![]() I would absolutely love to get in on Rise of the Runelords, even though it looks like you have quite a bit of interest. I only ever got to play through the first half of the first chapter or so(don't worry, I can seperate my own knowledge from my character's :P), and have always wanted to play through more of it.
