About Lucky LongthornLucky Longthorn
PERSONALITY:
Lucky Longthorn is a cosmopolitan freethinker and an optimist. He looks for the silver lining and believes strongly that luck is on his side. But his positive attitude belies the dark memories of his childhood and coming of age... the oppression of his people. He has learned his share of hard lessons - and does not squander his fortunes or tempt fates on foolish gambles. His optimism is a sign of his courage in the face of darkness. He would not dishonour the memory of loved ones by indulging in despair. Instead he seeks to live life to its fullest and help others do the same. Lucky enjoys the company of regular folks in all walks of life. He assists the weary and inspires the wayward to find cause in the pursuit of freedom...to stand up for themselves in the face of oppression or dark terrors. In conflict he seeks creative solutions to avoid violence (ie. trickery and guile). He has the physical strength to stand up for himself and fight if necessary....but prefers to stand back and provide support.
BACKGROUND:
Lucky Longo is a handsome young gypsy with a spring in his step and a light in his eye. A wandering tale-spinner and dream speaker, he was born on the eve of the vernal equinox beneath a canopy of stars. He was raised among nomadic tinkerers, who travelled the roads and byways of the country during a time of great strife and woe. His family was poor - but his auspicious birth marked him as a fovourite among the superstitious elders. As a young boy he was taken in by the clan matriarch to receive instruction in the old ways and rituals of Desna. Lucky's people have alwasy had a reputation for thieving and mischief. As a child Lucky was certainly one of those lads who contributed to this notoriety. He had a knack for leading the other kids into trouble and then charming his way out of punishment. He was also admired by young lasses and envied by some of the other boys. As he grew up, his god-given magic became manifest and the wise among the people began to wonder at his imminent power. At this time great hardship fell on the wayward people. Historically they had often been distrusted and despised by the majority of citizens in the land. Their history is filled with tales of religious pogroms and genocide. Recently they became once again the targets of a local crusade. Authorities stormed their camp and rounded up all of the vagrants they could catch - young and old - male or female. It was a spectacular event as they were hauled into the city, strung up and flogged before the hysterical mob. A lucky few managed to escape into the wild as outlaws or blended into streets to live among the thieves and beggars of skid row. And some even found ways to thrive, making the best of things and scraping together a living at the fringes of society. Such seems to be the case with our lucky young mystic. Lately he has taken up the trail with a group of escaped slaves, bandits and paupers, who have circled their tents in a gully by the river just outstide of Redmount - an area sheltered from the winds of the plain.
DESCRIPTION:
A tall, handsome, young man with shoulder-length dark hair, brown skin and blue eyes. He is dressed for the road with a finely tailored ermine cloak draped over oiled leather and well worn boots. Hanging from his baldrick -shining - is an unusual starknife and a heavy iron mace is strapped to his belt. He also carries a wooden shield, a simple quarterstaff and a sling sack. Hanging from his neck is an amulet painted with an intricately carved butterfly...a religious symbol denoting him as a devotee of Desna. ABILITIES AND STATS:

FEATS:
FEATS: Luck seems to follow young Longthorn. He is loved by his friends, who are fortunate to know him. But to enemies he is a thorn in the side andthey are often vexed by his presence. Elder mentors recognized his strange luck as a blessing of the Desna and they see him as a harbinger of resistance and freedom for their people. As he came of age he began to recognise this power, and has learned to channel it to heal people, drive off spirits and share blessings. Level 1: Selective Channel
