Recruitment for Trail of the Curseborn

Marcus is ready.
Recruitment for Trail of the Curseborn

Thanks Graves, I must have missed that one. Sorry.

For bonded spirit, I have had a couple of ideas:

  • A spirit of earth - After getting chased out of village into a blizzard the last winter because someone saw him use arcane magic, Marcus was lost and sure to die in the storm. A warm hand took his own and led him to a small cave where he found a supply of dry firewood, a freshly killed pair of rabbits, and a shallow depression between the fire and the back of the cave. In short, a perfect hideout from the storm. In what he thought afterward to be a delirious fantasy, the spirit offered to help in if he would agree to helping the spirits of nature when they called.
  • A spirit of beasts - Marcus nearly shat kine the first time the panther prowled out of the forest where he played. Though he knew the beast was a deadly predator, he felt no fear of it after the initial shock wore off; he somehow knew that it had no interest in harming him. In the years that followed, Marcus came to understand that the panther could somehow take the shape of any number of animals, and that the spirit, for spirit it must be, had chosen to accompany, aid, and protect him.
  • The restless spirit of a long dead magic user - Marcus thought, at first, that his newfound magic had driven him insane. The voice of a rather cranky old man spoke to him, chastised him, and sometimes, tried to teach him. When he started seeing the faint, ghostly image of an old man whom the voice fit perfectly, he became convinced he was either haunted or was losing his mind. The first time he listened, the ghost taught him how to capture his magic into writings on parchment. Now, Marcus listens to the ghost when it appears, and tries to understand what it is saying; though there is some fundamental difference between the way the dead man used magic and the way Marcus does.

    Still need an answer on this...

    Will you allow magic item creation feats? I am assuming no, given the lost-high-art feel of the setting, but some wands or scrolls would be nice.

    Edit: I would also like to start with a bonded spirit. That sounds pretty cool.

    Sanity Loss: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8, 70-8=62 remaining.

    Edit #2: Marcus is ready to go except for his bonded spirit and one last feat.

    This is MisterLurch's submission. I've got a few more things to polish, but the meat of it is here.

    Sorry to hear that, Quoth.

    Marcus is still here!
    The Monkey in the Library

    Marcus sat quietly at his table, studying and watching the others planning mischief. Isabela had tried to involve him in her schemes again, and as usual had assumed that he would simply go along with it and play his part; something he had no intention of doing. Typical of her to assume that I would be interested in breaking the rules. I get into enough trouble without breaking any rules. I do not need to give 'them' any help blaming me for stuff.

    Marcus looks up at Zov with a blank expression, then shakes his head, "No thank you, Zov. I do not wish to have a cigarette."

    Marcus walks into the library, dressed in the school uniform as usual, nods to the group with Isabela, and heads toward one of the empty tables. He does not flaunt his heritage, but he does not really try to hide it either.
