Signature Attacks

Punctured-Pins the enemy to the ground back up, and brings the blade of his hammer crashing into their spine. Paralyzed, Narar rotates his hammer to drive the rib cage into the victims lungs.

Rock And A Hard Place-Narar drives the blunt side of his hammer into the victim's gut horizontally, and pins them to a wall. The resulting impact of the wall and the force of the hammer implodes the victims chest cavity.

Blind Man's Bluff-Narar blinds the victim with bewilder, stabs the victim in the foot with the blade of his hammer, and as the victim bends over, Narar brings the hammer over the back of their head.

Special Power

Thanks to special ancestral gloves, Narar can pick up most things with great ease. However, Narar almost never uses these gloves.

Narar's hammer is a very special one indeed. One of the hammers heads is a large, curved blade.

Narar's most distinguishable trait is the ankh on his back. The same ankh is found on the head of his hammer. Being bald, only Narar knows the color of his hair.

Looks good Dalamar, although he may be a tad powerful with so many weapon masteries, acolytes & magics, but aside from that - he seems fine - but - what does he look like? Where's the background and appearance and stuff? . That aside, I like him. [img]smile.gif[/img] . Now, if only everyone else would get in a character sheet.

Oh, and I updated the magics and added a few more, so you may want to check that.

[Calaethis Dragonsbane]

Dalamar - sure [img]smile.gif[/img] .

Dplex - I hope that people will be able to disinguish between my green and yours And that's fine [img]smile.gif[/img] .

I too tend to prefer italics and " ' "s for thoughts and ' " 's for speech.

Now all we need is Leggy's sheet and possibly another character or two and we're all set.

If anyone else wants to join the game, do feel free!

Weapon Mastery
Mastery: Long bow. His long curved dagger.
Acolyte: Traps.

Signature Attack
Uncanny Shot: Due to years of dilligent hunting practice, Detheriel is able to place an arrow carefully in a target that others would find near-impossible. This shot automatically hits and causes double damage.

Its use is subject to a number of conditions:
(i) There must be no enemies either threatening him or in the immediate area to allow him to concentrate.
(ii) He must not be distracted for a period of half a minute whilst he carefully aims.
(iii) He must not carry any injuries other than superficial ones - injury would distract his concentration.


Inventory

Jewellery: A silver necklace
A large satchel.
A leather belt.
A long (1 1/2 feet) slightly curved dagger, sheathed at his belt.
A bow, some 4 1/2 feet in length.
Quiver containing 38 arrows.
A small whittling knife.
Whetstone.
A leather purse hanging from his belt. 15 small copper marks, 5 large copper marks and 2 silver pennies within.
Assorted herbs in a pouch.
Waterskin x2.
Food for two days: Loaf of slightly stale bread, hunk of hard cheese, apple x3, dried and salted meat strip x 3.
Unfinished wood carving of a bird of prey.
Bed roll.
Flint, tinder and kindling.
Two wire traps.
Needle and thread.


Appearance & Personality:

Detheriel stands about 6 feet tall and is a fairly slim but muscular male. His hair is cut very short but somehow still manages to appear slightly unkempt. His blue eyes twinkle in a merry face that the elements have aged beyond his years; unremarkable in all respects apart from a tiny, almost ornate, scar on his left cheek.

Given his life of relative solitude, he loves hearing the idle chatter of other humans but finds peace in the wilds that have been his home for so long and is quick to anger at acts of wanton cruelty or destruction towards nature. He is very proud of his abilities and enjoys using them to help others in need and also rather enjoys (perhaps too much) the gratitude earned in the process. He is not a loud person, preferring to listen to the conversation rather than join in, but he does enjoy a good joke and some ale when it's available.

He dresses in dull browns, favouring leather garments. His satchel is hung over his head by a strap and appears to also be tethered to the back of his wide leather belt, whilst his bedding is strapped to the back of the satchel. A long curved dagger with an ornately engraved blade is hung from a scabbard at his side whilst a small money purse hangs from the other side. His bow is either carried in his right hand or slung over his shoulder and a quiver containing long feathered arrows is also slung across his back next to the satchel.


Background

Detheriel was born in the remote farming village of Maisengall some thirty years ago. The first few years of his life were happy, living with his mother, father and older sister on their smallholding. At the age of eight a series of droughts brought much hardship to their community. As their produce dwindled, hunger asserted itself and gradually drove his father to the bottle. His father lost interest in his work and the situation of their smallholding deteriorated still further under his worsening management.

He lost his mother to a fever one winter at the age of eleven and, as soon as his sister was married a couple of years later, Detheriel ran away from what was fast becoming an abusive home. He quickly learned how to scavenge enough food to survive and in time became proficient with the simple weapons he carried, using his bow to fell animals in the forest.

Feeling the loneliness of isolation, he embarked upon a nomadic existence, moving through the wilds almost at random, helping those in need and slaying those who preyed on the innocent. Such a lifestyle sustains him to this day.

Hope the skill points are ok - I've balanced taking six adepts at the cost of only having two skills at mastery level. His signature attack is powerful, but I think I've imposed suitably draconian restrictions on its use to make it reasonable.

Do let me know if you need anything changed/expanded upon [img]smile.gif[/img]


Edit:

After posting a bit I thought it might be helpful if his personality could be expanded upon here.

He's fundamentally a 'good' character. Whilst events like the opression of the populace witnessed so far will make him coldly angry, he prefers to assess the situation before taking action. He is mild-mannered usually, not prone to lose his temper and generally tries to avoid conflict within groups. He is quite content to follow another leader, so long as he feels he has sufficient influence to ensure the group arrives at the decisions that he wanted.

He has many character flaws too - not least that he can be prone to flashes of jealousy. He also gets irritated when things are not proceeding along what he perceives to be the 'correct' course of action and generally has low opinions of those he thinks aren't practical or 'wise to the ways of the world'. In the interests of avoiding overt conflict in the group he would usually hide these feelings.

He is a practical sort of man, as you might expect from a lifetime of living outdoors, and has little patience for the fineries of civilised life (or indeed little knowledge of them either!). Occasionally you may therefore notice him interacting clumsily with others.


5 unused XP outstanding.
