Draconic bloodline powers
1st - Claws (Ex): Ixuis can make two claw attacks as a full-attack action. These claws are treated as natural weapons, meaning that Ixius is always considered armed (and dangerous) but he does not gain additional attacks for a high base attack bonus (which he will never have anyway). They deal 1d6 points of damage plus his strength modifier.

3rd - Dragon Resistances (Ex): Ixius has a resistance of 5 against fire (his energy type) and a +1 natural armor bonus.

Draconic Bloodline Arcana: Whenever Ixius casts a spell with the [fire] subtype it deals +1 point of extra damage per die rolled.

TACTICS

Ixius usually prefers to shoot his beloved bow. However, when he gets mad the dragon comes out and he wades into melee with his claws (after casting Mage Armor if he remembers).

BACKGROUND

Ixius was born in Andoran of an Andoran (Andoranese?) (Andoranish?) ex-ranger father and an Osirioni mother. After his father married and had children he quit rangering and settled down to a simple life of farming, hunting and raising children in the countryside outside of Almas. From his father he learned to be an expert archer and the craft of bowmaking. From his mother he learned that he inherited her family's talent for draconic sorcery. When he was a teenager he left Andora for Absalom to attend one of its prestigious arcane univerities. He learned more sorcerous skills at school, but was caught trying to steal a magic longbow that one of his instructors was crafting. He was then expelled from the university and sent to prison.

After a couple of years of hard time Ixius was released with nothing but hard-earned rougish fighting skills and a bad temper. After living on the streets of Absalom for a couple of months he joined the Absalom navy as an archer and bowmaker for the captain of an Absalom navy ship. He travelled on the navy ship around the inner sea for a couple of months, until the ship was lost in a battle against pirates from the Shackles. Ixius was captured and taken as a slave rower on one of the pirate ships. The ship was caught in a bad storm of the Eye of Abendego and was wrecked on the northern coast of the Shackles. Three of the pirates also survived the wreck. Ixius easily killed all three (blasting one with burning hands and clawing the other two to death). He then raided the shipwreck amassing quite a fortune in stolen goods. He eventually made his way overland to Bloodcove where he is currently seeking work, or even better, well-paying adventure.

Ixius has a rough demeanor but can also be very charming when he wants to. He has a bad temper and sometimes does not use his best judgement. He doesn't advertise that he is a sorcerer and actually takes pains to conceal the fact. He thinks he is the best archer in the world. True Strike is his favorite spell, and it has won him many a bet in archery contests.
