Well, I assume that's not entirely correct... As Kai Lord is essentially having this work comissioned there must be some usage rights for the owner (posting on your website, etc). Wayne would well be within his rights to balk at the image being published on the cover of some magazine - you would normally have to pay an artist or a photographer more for such use.Sir Elton said:
That's not fair. OH well.
At the time Wayne can't just turn around and publish a comissioned piece using the likeness of any of these characters without the express written permission from the winner though.
A'koss.

I have to read this stuff at work, so I often miss details.

Talun Swiftbrook
Back up to page one you go.
Looking at your Kagonesti Kai reminded me of Talun.
Talun was a Kagonesti Barbarian. One of the Kagonesti's favorite weapons was the warhammer. With the 1e barbarian's dex mod to armor Talun was nigh untouchable in his normal leather armor.
Talun was 5'6" tall and muscular. Dark skin (with tattoo's of course), black hair and emerald green eyes. He wore leather armor and fought with warhammer and round wooden shield. I also had a longbow slung on his back for when ranged death was needed.
The DM came up with this awesome warhammer for Talun. It was called the Hammer of Kagyar. The shaft was dull black steel, while the head was shaped like a dragon head breathing fire. The metal of the head was obsidian black with veins of red running throughout. As I gained in level's I learned that the weapon had greater and greater powers.
Talun's personality was one of quiet stoicism, like Riverwind. Talun got very passionate about combat though, he loved it.
One of my favorite moments with Talun was when the party was fighting some ogres on Southern Ergoth. It was a natural 20 and the head of my hammer burst into flame, killing the ogre I was fighting (that hammer was kind of like a precurser to the flaming burst weapons). The DM rolled a morale check and the surviving ogres failed miserably.

Knight of the Sword
Tynian Lorcan was my Knight of the Sword who eventually became the High Clerist.
Tynian was born on Northern Ergoth. Dark skin, brown eyes, black curly hair, bulging muscles, and 5'10" tall. He wore Solamnic Plate which consisted of +1 field plate and +1 shield, both bearing symbols of all the orders. He fought with a longsword and lance on his coal black warhorse.
Tynian was fun loving and a bit of a prankster. He often sang in battle, bawdy tavern songs to boot.
My most memorable moment with Tynian was when the party was in the badlands south of Estwilde. A cleric of Takhisis mounted on a black dragon was chasing us. The only reason we were alive is because we were fleeing with all our might through some deep dry riverbeds, like those Indy went through in the Canyon of the Cresent Moon. There came a time when we were out in the open though.
Now, one of my favorite things about playing a Knight was that I could go to one of the more established knight cells and borrow equipment. Tynian had a footman's Dragonlance that I had borrowed from Vingaard Keep. So I charged out from cover to engage the dragon, barely ignoring the dragonfear. It breathed on us and we both survived. The dragon landed, confident both it and the cleric could take us in melee. Even wounded as I was (those who know the stats of 1e dragonlances know what I mean here) I managed to drop the dragon to somewhere in the teens in hit points.
That's when the rest of the party struck, finishing off the dragon and letting us capture the cleric.

Thank You!
I appreciate it Kai Lord. I thought it would be nice to have one post that lead to the characters. I'll attempt to keep updating it as the thread goes along.
I really got the idea from the Character Optimization board over on the Wizards site. They have a monthly contest that has similar coding.
Anyway, Thanks.

Full Title:
Signoré Derril Maddon of the Line of Levistus, Avowed of Akkadurai, Brother of the Eight-fold Tower, Peer of the Royal Gardens
Appearance:
The tiefling before you stands 6 feet tall and thin. His albino skin is so thin and pale that the veins and arteries below the surface can be easily seen. Pink albino eyes gaze languidly under short and curly white hair. Two small horns white as ivory protrude from his high forehead; between the horns a silver chain suspends two lusterless white pearls. Sickly rose-red lips frame a mouth so wide it seems to split his face. His bony hands end in blackened and manicured fingernails. The emotional coldness he emits bears witness to the physical that his ancestor endures.
He wears a spotless hooded white robe, belted at his waist and covered by a similarly spotless grey traveling cloak. Around his neck on a twisted gold necklace hangs a tiny black hand, seemingly carved from obsidian. He holds casually in his right hand a short blue-black rod, tipped at each end with the image of the snake devouring its tail while the left caresses the wand tucked in his belt. His right earlobe is adorned with two small gold earrings; one dangling two white pearls, the other hanging farther up the ear set with a black pearl. Both hands are festooned with rings: jeweled and plain, gold and silver, simple and ornate. Tan leather boots, seared with arcane symbols show underneath the ankle-length white robe. A small green lizard lies perched upon the leather satchel slung over his shoulder he uses to hold his spellbooks and other possessions.
Baddest moment:
Coming up soon...

Parys Dayl
First Post
Parys Dayl is a Silvanesti dark elf, he's about 5'7" and has stark white hair with cool pale skin due to his test of high sorcery. He was born with naturally violet eyes and wears the Black Robes, he is always wearing his 'reading' glasses, which are platnium frames with ruby lenses. The only jewelry he wears is a single steel ring, his robes are trimmed with gold and have a slight blue tint. He appears to carry a heavy burden even though he only has a single pouch that carrys his belongings, and his face is still flawless aside from the side effects of his test.
