Riddick's page

I was out all day with a friend so...uh..yeah what people are concerned about:

1) He cross dresses for the part as the elven harp maiden at his father's inn and to pass as his father's daughter which is more of a development on Willam's character more than Riddick's as it represents Willam's obsession with his mother. That and not having to pretend he's a girl all the time would be a nice change for him

2) Passing as an elf is WAY easier with feminine features in my opinion.

3) If for whatever reason Riddick even gets romantically involved with anyone, I've always done it with 'fade to black.' And I've only had one IC relationship ever playing D&D...and we just 'faded to black' and it didn't disrupt anything or play a central role in any situation whatsoever.

4) Branchala's at odds with your god Gareth? I thought he was allied with all the good aligned gods...unless his god is LN or something. What were you concerned about exactly?

Riddick only knew the love and comfort of his father Willam. Only hearing stories of her life, Willam did his best to explain she had past on. Growing up in Khur, he panhandled alongside his homeless father when he was but a child. Luck struck the struggling family when Willam stumbled across a dropped coinpurse filled to the brim with platinum and steel. Willam took the money and used it to build an inn where Riddick discovered his love for music and the harp; Willam gave him his mother's harp as a young boy and the only memento of her memory. At his father's request, he'd cross dress and pretended to be an elven girl...and eventually maiden when he had matured.

He had no qualms with playing the part; people never questioned it. Riddick thought of his mother every time he played the harp, growing to question his father's stories. He was willing to lie to the public about his daughter actually being a son, what else could he be lying about? His father wanted him for the inn, but a strange wanderlust Riddick couldn't explain overcame him. With the intent of finding out for himself, he sneaks some supplies from the inn's stockroom every night, preparing for a journey into the big, unknown world...
