Good Luck!


Still interested.


Have changed avatar image to something less martial and more haunted.
Here are additional details concerning Victor

Defining Characteristics:

1) Survivor of a Magical Massacre
2) Because of his experiences he will become an unrelenting Demon and Undead Hunter
3) Disgraced Heir to a Gun Company
4) Guilt over sister and friends deaths
5) A bit of a nerd for a barbarian. Always consulting books.

Character Flaws:

1) Due to his experiences at the cabin, he is a firm believer in the mutilation of corpses to prevent them from returning.
2) He is slightly manic in combat. Reveling in the blood and gore, only regretting it later.
3) Deep down, he truly believes that everyone is good. This continually comes back to haunt him.

Character Fears:

His sister coming back would definitely unhinge him. Also any isolated cabins or similar structures trigger an unreasoning terror.

@Victor: Solid stuff. I get kind of a Lake Bodom murders vibe off of the situation, and that's some good s$*&, and the book is a solid and easily integratable kind of plot hook. If I pick up Victor I'm likely to colour in a lot of information about that book and sort of explain back to you elements and appearance and stuff, but I'll keep the events of what happened very much intact and write around that. Only thing I can take issue with is the nitpicky fact it's Lorrimor but that's an easy CTRL+H fix. And then there's the gun stuff I mentioned above, which you can bounce around with and adapt to as you wish.

Spelling corrected and he is no longer a VMC Gunslinger.


I couldn't help myself, went ahead and did it today. This is Kertuffle's write up of Victor.

The wine is distributed by the servants to all those present. Ioseph, flanked by Jemandi and Ezvanki, taps on the side of his glass to garner everyone's attention. Once everyone stops their conversations, Ioseph steps forward and begins to speak.
"First I would like to thank everyone for coming to our illustrious city. I love Restov and its people and I think that the nobility gathered here illustrate all the qualities that make our country great. When we see a problem we act decisively to fix it. And gentlemen, we have a problem with banditry along the South Rostland Road. Our patrols are sufficient to keep the majority of trade safe, but the patrols do not address the root cause of the problem. The Stolen Lands have become infested with brigands and it is time that we deal with them directly. So in the name of the Lord Regent I wish to charge the people in this room to remove the thieves that are attacking our trade and establish a small barony in the region. It is time that civilization comes to the Greenbelt and I and my comrades believe that you are the ones to do it. After much discussion we have decided that Viktor Stovyet should be the one to lead this expedition." Smiling, he advances on Viktor and firmly grasps his hand and after a quick congratulations he turns and raises his glass. "A toast to your bravery and luck to your expedition." He quaffs the wine and tosses the glass into the fireplace, his toast copied by Jemandi and Ezvanki.

Jemandi looks Venkar in the eye. "Do you have one of these weapons with you?"

At this Ioseph laughs and turns towards Evanki "David isn't the only one who will be fighting dragons for the rest of the day.'

David eagerly begins to play with Venkar and seems convinced that Venkar was actually at the battle. This goes on for a few minutes, but is brought to a end by the Lord Mayor firmly putting his hands on the shoulders of his son. "David, I think your mother needs some help. Why don't you go find her."
"But Daadd" David exclaims. "We were fighting dragons." Regardless of his protests, David scampers off towards his mother.
Ioseph turns to Venkar and with a smile remarks. "You're going to have him fighting dragons for the rest of the day." Jemandi seems to be studying Venkar's mock battlefield.

Venkar:
Go ahead and make a K/History or Pr/Soldier check. You can roll unskilled if you'd like to.

Venkar and anyone else who would like to witness this:

Please make Sense Motive checks
15 or above: Venkar seems to have annoyed him although not overly so.
25 or above: He is disappointed in David, like he has failed some sort of test. But he conceals it well.

The Lord Mayor is a distinguished man in his mid 40's. He has two daughters Lovi is 16 and Istar is 12. He also has a son who is 13 named David. His wife Lani has greeted everyone and directed them to the buffet. Ioseph is deep in conversation with Jemandi and Ezvanki near the buffet table.
