Drawbacks:
Signs of the Void A spectral aura of void surrounds Voidson, causing all creatures within 30 ft. to feel the pull of the void - they know when Voidson uses magic, as well as the nature of the magic used.
Personal Magic Voidson cares little for enhancing the abilities of others, and may only use his enhance ability to target himself and his own equipment. He cannot take the Ranged Enahncement talent, and any magic (except for the Bestow Intelligence, Lighten, and Animate Object talents) bestowed on an object ceases to function when wielded by another creature.
Void's Grasp Voidson's magic comes from the void, even the merest touch is enough to harm his corrupt body. He must pass a Fortitude save (DC 10 + 1/2 the ability's Caster Level) whenever he uses magic, or be sickened for 1 round. If he uses magic while sickened, he must pass a Fortitude save (DC 10 + 1/2 the ability's Caster Level) or be nauseated for 1 round.
Personality:
If you must refer to me by a name, let it be Voidson, for that is what Groetus himself called me.
I was like you once. Selfish, weak, concerned with nothing but the trifles of this mortal coil, obsessed with petty pleasures of the flesh. Yes, I knew that life well. But, I had a vision! Groetus spoke to me! He showed me the corruption of this world, and how it must end to be purified. One day, the void will consume you, and you, and the entirety of the cosmos, and it shall be glorius! Groetus willing, it shall be soon.
You may think me crazy, you may think me a deluded fool. But this is merely a reflection of your corrupted soul, fearing the endless nothing of the void. It will do anything to cling to its precious existence. Bah! I waste my time with you. You will not realize your mistake until the end is upon you. When that day comes, you will look back, you will remember my words, and you will weep with impotent despair, knowing that I, that Groetus, was right!
Voidson is rather crazy, but in a functional way. He is determined to seek an artifact that he's convinced will usher in the end of all things. However, while arrogant and harsh, he understands that he is not a one-man army, and cooperating with others can help him further Groetus's goals.
He is dead set against any other cults, outsiders, etc. that may also be trying to destroy the world - that is the purview of Groetus himself, and the others are upstarts that should be shut down with extreme prejudice.
Appearance:
Voidson is a tall man (6' 2"), with ashen skin and greying hair. He is harsh, rude, and arrogant. His wild eyes and fevered passion are intimidating.
Background:
Voidson was once known as Arkuman, a mild-tempered man who worked as a librarian in Everwatch. He was born to Imperial parents, and lived nearly his whole life in Everwatch. He was a cautious, introverted man who loved to study the history of Nordholm. His favorite subjects of research were the many forgotten self-proclaimed kings that dot history.
Arkuman was content to read about these long-forgotten souls until the gravesite of his favorite ancient Nordic king, Ustav the Fierce, was discovered. He simply had to see it. Quite out of his element in the wilds, he nevertheless made it to the gravesite, and got far more than expected. Upon descending into the tomb, he slipped, fell, and hit his head. While unconscious he had fevered dreams (he insists they are visions) showing him an artifact that would aid Groetus in bringing about the destruction of all things.
When he woke, he wandered aimlessly for several days, portents and images swarming his vision. He came to after a week or so, a changed man. Since then, he has not returned to Everwatch, instead searching the hidden nooks and crannies of Nordholm, determined to locate the artifact and bring about Groetus's will.
He recently came afoul of an Imperial patrol after looting a tomb and refusing to allow them to search his belongings. They arrested him and stripped him of all that he had.
