[OOC] Knights of The Dawn Covenant: The Longest Winter

[Cuccoruler]

@TheDarkTemplarThanks. I guess if I have to make my post, I'll have him meet up with...Glodin, since he seems to be alone at the moment, fighting Templars.

@OtomostheCrazy

Cythlla is with him... and Henry... there is a giant bear fighting the cultists...

[Mega Birb]

Just waiting for you guys to get to the village.

[OtomostheCrazy]

@CuccorulerA bit late, but I'll make the edit to include them.

@Ace of flames01

Yeah, I already sent it to Templar. He gave it a thumbs up, so I'm just kinda waiting at this point. I can toss it in here first, if you want.

Cleric Lucien Jakorian

Age: 35 47, with approval of the correction.

Gender: Male

Race: Human

Rank: Knight-Sergeant

Personality: As a Cleric, Lucien is bound by his prayers to heal his allies and punish his enemies in the name of the Holy one he prays to. Thus, he is deeply religious like most Templars. He despises demons, though does not mind half-bred demons, as the few he has dealt with had wished to forsake the pact that made a parent a demonic sorcerer. He tolerates Necromancers, though silently despises them, as they raise the dead to fight again. Overall, he’s a jolly individual with a stomach of steel, having once won a drinking contest by downing half-a-barrel of ale and managing to remain upright. Ask him about that, he somehow remembers the story through the drunken haze he was in. Quite vividly, as a matter of fact.

Bio: Born to a poor family in a small village far from any major city in the kingdom of Farendar, Lucien Jakorian grew up in the bubble that was his home. He lived contently, helping his father in the fields as he grew, praying faithfully to a God he knew very little of. Therefore, he assumed such an enigma to be all-powerful to have drawn such a following.
He was wrong. Around age twelve, Lucien’s village was sacked by orcs and was burned to the ground. The men were killed, the women raped, and the children sold into slavery, Jakorian was no exception. Carted away from the life he once knew, he muttered a prayer to Cadeniere, knowing only that he presided over justice.
His prayer wasn’t answered until six years later, when the encampment he had toiled in for ages was finally attacked by the Dawn Covenant. Lucien was almost killed in the aftermath, a knight nearly mistaking him for a Shriek Orphan in a cage, based solely on how badly emaciated he was. Obviously, he was not killed by his saviors, and now serves the Order faithfully, sparing the innocent and killing the monsters that once imprisoned him.
He’s slowly risen through the ranks, killing the monsters that he fears, but will never admit to it. For obvious reasons, he protects the weak, hastily running into battle where innocent victims are present, and usually expending too much energy inflicting harm on those he deems threats. On a lighter note, he loves food. He’ll eat just about anything you put in front of him.

WEAPONS
Primary: Banishing Buzdygan
Secondary: Holy Talisman of Just Actions
Tertiary: Candeniere’s Crossbow

Buzdygan

Crossbow

Magic: Advanced Restoration- With the Gods on his side, Lucien is a healer that has come close to mending fatal wounds. In other words, an arrow in the chest is fixable, given the slim chance that no organs were pierced and said arrow is neither barbed nor fletched properly.

OTHER
-May obsessively clean his talisman if nervous about anything.
-Among the last people you want cooking for you.
-Has gone two months since last shaving.

Post Example: Lucien, having stayed more towards the castle wall through the fighting and healing the injured, looked out towards the left flank… and it was collapsing. If he was gonna bust some heads, now was the time. He muttered a quick prayer and removed his mace from the loop in his belt, raised his talisman, then bellowed a rallying cry. “FIRST ROUND OF ALE’S ON ME FOR WHOEVER HELPS TO FORTIFY THE LEFT FLANK!” His loud voice dominated the immediate area, drawing the attention of a large band of soldiers.
Unorthodox, yes, but it worked. With the cleric leading the charge with a haphazardly large amount of excess soldier close behind, he raised his mace to the air and yelled, his gruff voice being faintly heard from even the front lines. “ALTAIA, INVOKE ME!” He cried, then proceeded to slam the heavy end of the weapon into an oncoming creature’s face as he broke through the stagnant wall of allies, essentially killing the beast on impact. His one hope was that he had good aim today and didn’t have to save someone’s hide with a crossbow bolt.
He only had so many of the damn things, after all.

Hmmm he looks a tad old for 35...

[OtomostheCrazy]

Okay, we have a guy wielding Sauron's Mace...do we win yet?

[Mega Birb]

@Ace of flames01 He's the Cleric, he has to put up with people's stupidity all day and heal the injuries said stupidity causes.
@OtomostheCrazy Oh, whoops... this is what happens when you know literally nothing about Lord of the Rings. Except who Gandalf and Bilbo are.

EDIT: I read the Hobbit about a year and a half ago and I have since forgotten all the details except those concerning the death of Smaug.

[OtomostheCrazy]

@Mega BirbI wasn't complaining. I just saw something and made a bit of a joke about it.
Also, it's a good thing we don't have a Patches character on our merry band, otherwise the guy would keep trying to "accidentally" stab the man in the back.

[Mega Birb]

@Ace of flames01 Actually, now that I'm thinking about, you're right. 47 sound like a more apt age for the conditions that would cause such an appearance that early on.

[Mega Birb]

I have this great idea but I can't make a post until someone's at the village.
Speaking of ideas, has the Templar army been decimated or was that just part of the Order that got stomped on by Sar'Than?

[TheDarkTemplar]

@Mega Birb
Every Knight-Commander brought with them a Knight-Captain and a company of 200 of the elite Templars of The Order. The rest of The Order are still at their various forts scattered across the continent.

[TheDarkTemplar]

Speaking of Sar'than I forgot to add Krovah to the villain list.

[OtomostheCrazy]

Honestly. I think we can take the dragon, but circumstances don't call for it.

[Ace of flames01]

@OtomostheCrazy

You? Against a dragon? Pfft naw man naw. A lizard? Maybe. But not a dragon

[OtomostheCrazy]

@Ace of flames01

I did say "we", didn't I? Also, was that a reference or quote from something? I feel I've heard it before.

See, all we really need to do is just use our magic, have the ranged people hit from a distance, working together to do more than bother it (preferably shoot at the eyes, the nostrils, and the open mouth before/after it's letting out whatever type of breath it uses) while the heavy hitters either distract it, or find a way to attack it with something with enough force to pierce through its defenses.

Unfortunately, I don't think that would work all that well, since there are still other enemies around. Besides that, I don't think that's where the story's going anyway.

[TheDarkTemplar]

Oh jeez do I have to make a CS for the Dragon too?!

[OtomostheCrazy]

@TheDarkTemplar

Don't know. Has it any significance other than the current beast of destruction?
