I was thinking that Raven would have been attracted to Ahriman's presence do to his sheer evil returning Raven to his senses rather than just being a ghost story. If Ahriman were to come looking for Raven however there would be no door to kick down. Though there would be lots of trees to burn down and surrounding villages to pillage.

Sounds like the time Ahzek raised the Abyssal Fortress out of the ground to become an actual proper fortress rather than a hole in the middle of nowhere. That took a fair bit of juice.

Bummer.

A holiday outing then!
The Thousand Sons are cool and all, but using the name Ahzek Ahriman and his appearance is just...
Name: Vesuvius Piuot Age: 56 Gender: Male Race: Human Side: Dark, Preacher of Ahzek Weapons(s): A small dagger kept for emergencies and sacrifices Abilities/Powers: Can perform non-combat divine miracles as though he were blessed by a god. Talent(s): Diplomacy, preaching, running the heck away. Personality: He believes Ahzek to be the one true god, wishes to spread his religion, but is an incredible coward. Biography: In youth, he was lost. He did not believe the gods most people worship were worthy of their crown. But in Ahzek, he found the god he had sought. And thus, he became a preacher. Extras: I'm entirely okay with this guy dying, just don't think it will be easy.
I hope elves are alright, I didn't really want to add another human character, as there are a lot of those already. Haha you look away for an hour or nine and then there are 30 more posts. Whoops!
Name: Sir Khyssoun Maerdrym
Age: 2175 (about 32 in human years)
Gender: Male
Race: Elf
Side: Light Side, Captain of the 19th Division, Lord of Haverford County, a member of the Kingsguard, and (according to some servants in his castle) Sir Prissypants
Weapons(s): Rather skilled in the broadsword, which is his preferred weapon of choice, but he can make do with whatever pointy stick he can find. However, if all else fails, he is quite proficient in using halberds and longbows.
Abilities/Powers: Heightened hearing sense
Enhanced strength
Healing - Most likely where he earned his rather unfortunate nickname from the servants. While he spent a considerable amount of time studying and practicing the healing arts, he spent most of his time training with his sword. This proves useful on the battlefield, but if the injury goes above a certain point, it requires his absolute attention. His abilities include being able to close wounds, restore broken bones, cure most ailments, and heal internal damage. Anything above that would mean him leaving the battlefield to help the patient.
Talent(s): A sweet talker for sure, he has a silver tongue and certainly knows his way around court(and especially the ladies). Besides his strength in battle, he's rather marvelous at chess and other mind games. He can read people rather well, especially in tone of voice and body language. Of course, he is still fluent in Elvish and can learn other languages quickly, so he often serves as a translator. Secretly, Khyssoun is talented in the art of torture and actually enjoys it more than any sane man should.
Personality: At first glance, Khyssoun is the perfect gentleman, as is expected from one of the esteemed Kingsguard. He is rather proper in the court setting, flattering the Lords and kissing hands of the Ladies. The county he rules over is fooled by this as well, believing him to be a merciful protector of the lands that truly feels for the plight of the people. However, while his love of the people is true to an extent, Khyssoun is much less perfect than he appears. He favors himself above all others and will only fight for the causes that he believes in. If the King were to make a decision he disagrees with, he would have no issue in quickly switching sides. Cunning and oft too enclosed for his own good, Khyssoun is rather sadistic as well, which makes it all the better for him on the battlefield.
Biography: Khyssoun was born in the forest to two mid-ranking elves of the Syranthr Tribe in the local forests. It wasn't a large tribe, but they managed well on their own without relying too much on the help of outsiders. They were skilled at farming and traded with the humans for clothes and other supplies they needed, depending on the season. He helped in the field, and when he wasn't, he attended a rag-tag "school" led by a well-traveled elf. Otherwise, he would train with some of the village elders in the healing arts.
After passing his tribe's "right of age" passage, Khyssoun entered the human world for the first time. Enthralled by the wondrous cities and the strange new culture, he quickly found himself at the court of one of the minor nobles. They let him stay around as somewhat of a marvel to look at, but Khyssoun took the chance to learn the ways that humans fought. Here, he learned to wield a sword, which was much different than the bow he was accustomed to in his tribe.
Life was perfect for a while, until he decided to formally enroll himself into the noble's personal army. There he learned the not-so-perfect parts of human nature. Alcoholism, gambling, prostitution, soliciting. He found himself wrapped up in it all, as was the rest of the army. There he found a taste for power. The thrill he felt when he had a life in the palm of his hands only led him on a quest for more. Having come from a humble background where no one was considered above the other, the sensation of power was a strange and oddly welcome sensation.
His first kill was not too long after he joined the army. It had been a personal hit against a merchant that had done the noble a disservice. It had been entirely too easy to corner the man, and also entirely too comforting to hear him scream as the sword plunged through his chest. And that was the moment Khyssoun knew he must have more.
Slowly, slowly, he worked his way up in not so conventional ways. And then finally, after outliving at least three generations of royal blood, he found himself as the Lord of Haverford County. After a while, he decided to join the Kingsguard in hopes to protect all that he has made for himself thus far. While he has taken the oath and whatnot, it is not within his interests to uphold it whatsoever. It's lucky for the king that their interests happen to be the same. For now.
Extras: Quite interested in expanding his powers as of late. He's just waiting for the right time.
Forgive my brashness, but there is way more Darth Vaders than there are Rainbow Pixie Men - we're a little out numbered.
I volunteer myself for King, and will rewrite my character sheet so that the bad guys have someone to conflict against - but I'll need my noble knights and lords at my side!
Anyone on this site care for the betterment of the greater good? Or have me and an Elf gotta take on the legions of the damned single handidly?
Anywhos, if you accept me as king, I will provide somewhat a backstory of the Kingdom and a map to boot - which will be eligible for customization, but will also be crude in appearance as I don't have access to any high grade map making software.
Though if someone else wants to take up the crown, that's cool, I'm more than happy to carry on as my grizzled ranger!
@Frengo perhaps when I get home I will pm you the details for the queen and then I can write her history based on what you come up with.
Okay, well if you all give me about an hour, I'll hash up a draft of the kingdom and the king, and you can either yea or nay me on the subject. No hard feelings if you all say "GTFO NOOB!" and condemn me to my forest antics for the whole RP. Gimme a chance though!
Stay tuned, I'll work solidly until I have something up.
Yep def gonna need more than say, two people on the Light side. I'm up for making another Light character if need be, we're filling in a lot of the noble positions, so I can make some sort of knight-ish character. But even that, there's still a pretty considerable difference. Here's to hoping that maybe someone else is gonna join as a Light character???
I hope the amount of light side people continues to grow. For what is a villain without a hero? Anywho, I'm still sticking to this character. I hope we can have some fun RP.
I plan on making a queen and maybe a royal confidant kind of thing.the stereotypical old guy who is close with the royal family and acts as a private teacher to the princes and princessses.
