@Zeroth Excuse me while I wipe the coffee off my screen... but I do agree on the possibility of an NPC that's just there for coffin fodder

I’m workshopping a character if this is still open.
Tossing up between a Sharman Warlock using the powers of his ancestors or a Werewolf Hexblade. Which would be the better fit?

@Sanity43217 Always welcoming new characters, friendo. I gotta say, I'm feeling more towards the Shaman Warlock. The Werewolf Hexblade sounds dope, but we do already have a werewolf hunter being played by Eviledd, not that there would be any issues with two werewolves on the same team.

"Hmph! Other than it smelling like a dog kennel around here!
Filthy mutts!"

Hey, nobody asked you! Go back to your sulking, drama queen! <.<

Don't mind him ^.^'

I must ask, however, could you elaborate a little more on the Shaman Warlock concept? In particular, I want to learn more about how they use the power of their ancestors.

I’m thinking his tribe had a unique magic where they consume the essence(and often physical form) of creatures, spirits and the dead.
Most notably, the eldest in each bloodline receives a tattoo made from the ashes of their deceased ancestors. Holding a portion of each of their physical power.

Ah, ok. That reminds me of Shanoa and her glyph ability from Order of Ecclesia. I would assume this power has some drawbacks though, like say absorbing too many essences at once could harm them severely or outright kill them, or over time, their bodies would begin to deteriorate because of consuming the souls of beasts and spirits alike? I leave this up to you, of course, but I think there needs to be a sort of limit as to what kind of souls and how many he can consume.

"Hey guys, we just killed this huge Chimera and now I'm going to eat its soul!"

"I don't think that-"

*SHLORP!* *Swells up like Violet from Willy Wonka* "Uh...I think I fucked up." *Gory explosion*

"Holy fuckballs! Well...there goes our shaman."

General rule of thumb is if it’s sentient, the more powerful it is, the louder it is.

Can’t say I’ve played it.
As far as limitations go, the acquiring of powers would be heavily ritualised, which would lead to three key limits as to where he gets his powers from.
1. The ritual itself and specialised ingredients. Depending on the creature, spirit or being there could be very specialised ingredients that they might not have access to.
2. The time it takes to do the ritual. Just throw weaker enemies to disrupt the ritual. The stronger the thing he is binding, the longer it will take.
3. The ‘volume’ of the thing. Because he is taking in their full essence, it’s not so much the physical size, but mental energy. He has learned to live with the background hum of his ancestors, but taking in more sentient things might get a little crowded in his head. So no stealing Liches because they tend to make bad head mates.

@Kazemitsu I'm sorry. Gransylva's highway department was murdered by a bloodthirsty vampire hundreds of years ago. The roads ain't been maintained ever since.

Alistair: "Ridiculous." *kicks dirt into a pothole* "How then, does this Vampire King expect to provide for his horde of horrors? And how does he pay them, with no functioning economy? They can't possibly all be hell-bent on supporting his dark rule for no recompense!"

*A zombie steps out of the shadows next to him* "Yeagh...We dun even havegh dental..." *Its teeth fall out*

@Zeroth Yay!

*sips from blood chalice while lounging in his chair* "I don't see how that is my problem."

-_- Spoken like a true king, Matty... Plus I don't expect the legions of Hell to know about a working economy!

*a bat demon lands beside me* "Actually, I was once an accountant in a previous life.

Eh... besides that one. <.<
