When you hit with a melee attack using the staff, you can cause the target to take an extra 2d6 lightning damage. Thunder.

When the elf caught her eye she remained for some time there, her wonderlust temporarily forgotten. She took to elven version of her goddess very quickly (as the elves saw it). The child further delayed her and she grew restless as humans are want in their short years. Before Landanis considered the change in his life, the child grew. When Andor was ten, Seraphina finally persuaded Landanis to travel with her. Big part of that was his limited knowledge of other cultures. Her insatiable curiosity about new places and freedom finally took hold in his soul and they travelled where the wind took them. They took to life in a caravan of gypsies, living in a cart, entertaining where they could, moving out of the gypsi caravan when it suited them to be recognized as something more then thieves and entertainers.</p><p></p><p>Sleeping at local nobles castle, with gypsies caravan parked in the backyard, they were awoken that night by the screams and crying. Several guards and servants ran around confused as to what was happening until one after another started attacking each other. This continued for some time afflicting several gypsies too. Some time after it started from the castle emerged several feral figures that hunted down those still standing around or running from the castle. Affiks parents tried to run out of the castle and away into the night. They were swarmed and promptly killed in front of terrified child's eyes by having their throats bitten open and their life blood drained by the hunters. Strangely, they just held onto the child without harming him.</p><p></p><p>Finaly, regal figure in midnight blue robes with fire motiffs and red symbol in front strode out of the gate carrying limp body of a child. Scanning the scene in front if the gate, figure purposefuly strode toward Affiks location. As it neared it became clear it's a unearthly handsome man with pale complexion. He called to Affik and unaware that he obeyed until he was outside Andor came.</p><p></p><p>Dropping dead child in front of him he spoke:</p><p><span style="color: DarkRed">"Ovo je osveta za ono što sam postao zahvaljujuci svom pretku. De Andradi su zaboravili prokletstvo svoje obitelji i imali više od jednog djeteta kako bi nastavili lozu. Umjesto da mi dopuste da uzmem dijete odlucili su satrti lozu. Neka tako bude. Nijedan de Andrade nece živjeti ako ja, Fyrrlan Redspike de Andrade saznam za njega!"</span></p><p></p><p>Words were unfamiliar to Affik, but their meaning clear in his mind.</p><p></p><p>It seems that lords knew something was coming for them as they killed they own children and then themselves seconds before this creature came.</p><p></p><p>Then he bit into Affiks neck and drank bringing him to the brink of death. Whole affair lasted for the night. Nobody survived the event. Affik was brought within the castle over the day and he woke weak and helpless later during the day. After sunset he witnessed raising of his parents and other that perished that night and their feeding upon helpless villagers that were kept alive for this purpose. After everyone but Affik were dead whole entourage dissapeared into the night, leaving Affik with Andor de Andrade's body, words of the message forever etched into his mind.</p><p></p><p>Affik felt strangely dettached from whole affair. There was no crying, no pain, no joy, no nothing. </p><p></p><p>In the morning he carried the boy's body outside to provisionaly burry it and headed toward nearest town. As the wind outside touched him, it swirled, clean, purify, angry. It strengthened and grew into localized whirlwind and Affik felt pain as never before, cleansing cleaning, stripping away corruption left by the touch of the vampires. He collapsed and when he woke, saddness from the loss and thoughts of revenge were raging inferno within him. He swore vengeance and the storm answered. The lightning burned noble boy body Affik carried leaving only small ring in a pile of ashes. Affik took that signet ring and assumed the identity of Andor Anande de Andrade. Knowing that sooner or later, vampire that slew his parents will hear about him and hopefuly come to claim him.</p><p></p><p>He came into the temple of Talos, fury, storm and vengeance, as an orphan willing to learn, to avenge the light that was taken from his life. The catastrophy was soon discovered and the bodies of the slain blessed and burned and castle abandoned as cursed.</p><p></p><p>Andor was left somewhat gray of skin, some of his earlier memories and skills deleted from his memory by life draining touch of a vampire replaced by the words and image of slaughter and Fyrrlan Redspike, being he realized later was an elder vampire. Relatively short time afterwards, the boys original upbringing took over and senseless violence and destruction of the Talos priests grated on his sensibilites. After risking his life to save a village against his former comrades, he returned to the teaching of his mothers faith, still in its elven guise.</p><p></p><p>Free spirit of the young man took him from one place to another until he happened onto a bardic college, a great library in which he lost himself for a time, learning, honing the broad knowledge of his father into applied knowledge of people, their motivations, knowledge about undead, monsters that preyed upon the world of men, but also softer skills of influencing the people with music, dancing...magic if needed. He learned what he could about the vampire, researched the words that he heard that fateful night.</p><p></p><p>The words echoed in his mind now translated in common language as he translated the language of his nemesis:</p><p><span style="color: DarkOrange"></span></p><p><span style="color: DarkOrange">"This is the revenge for what I became thanks to their ancestor. De Andrades forgot the curse of their family and had more then one child to carry on the line. Instead of letting me have the extra child they decided to end the line here and now. Let it be so. Let it be known that no de Andrade will live if I, Fyrrlan Redspike de Andrade know about him!</span></p><p><span style="color: DarkOrange"></span></p><p></p><p>He kept traveling around, helping people fend off various spirits, monster or fellow men as he could. He formed small groups of like minded individuals showing himself an <em>Inspiring Leader</em> of men. In time, as he grew older and wiser, with more then one close brush with death, he settled (somewhat) into the great city in the service of a powerful noble. In the city, his skills grew as he expanded his contacts, now organized into a network as he remained at one place for longer time. After ten years of such service, occasional foray into forbidden libraries (stealing the knowledge) or negotiating entrance into closed ones through his contacts or his lords influence, Andor realized two things. First, the humanity is loosing the battle as small minded, sheltered nobles and officials closed their own security ever tighter around themselves without taking the offensive against the outside threats. And second, knowledge is power. His contacts ofter warned him about various strange events or threats before they became apparent to common populace and he took it upon himself to prevent them from becoming anything more. In time, he grew both rich and powerful enough to be recognized and due to his powerful patron he was known to city nobles too. When one of his warnings and his direct action prevented new born babe being exchanged for a changling and when he revealed dark cult blooming among dissenchanted women of the city, he was made a noble and he took the name of de Andrade.</p><p></p><p>Andor learned to be cautious with his knowledge. He became somewhat jaded, but still tries to find the best in people. Hard lines and salt-and-pepper hair show his experience, too light, too intense eyes betray his heritage. And that same experience led him to hard earned lesson: have a plan for every eventuality, every plan needs a failsafe.</p><p></p><p>Over time, he heard about several other powerful individuals visiting the city or its environs, each having its own strengths, each fighting loosing battle against the tide of evil even encountering some of them on the field. He decided to take the fight back out of the protected cities and into the wild. Looking for a mage, he went into city guild and asked to see their most powerful adventuring mage. Traveling to the residence of an elven palading living in the nearby wood, he fell into an ambush and was saved by diminutive flying faerie which nevertheless vanquished her foes with effiency and power that bellied her small stature. After some back and forth, all the individuals in question agreed to form Iustitia Legio (Justice Legion) forming a council of the new order with elven paladin offering his forest home as orders headquarters. Being close to the city and yet outside of it, it was perfectly positioned. And with such powerful protector as Arcturus Rime, there was little chance of it being overrun by occasinal wondering monster.</p><p>s</p><p>[/sblock]</p></blockquote><p></p>

When the elf caught her eye she remained for some time there, her wonderlust temporarily forgotten. She took to elven version of her goddess very quickly (as the elves saw it). The child further delayed her and she grew restless as humans are want in their short years. Before Landanis considered the change in his life, the child grew. When Andor was ten, Seraphina finally persuaded Landanis to travel with her. Big part of that was his limited knowledge of other cultures. Her insatiable curiosity about new places and freedom finally took hold in his soul and they travelled where the wind took them. They took to life in a caravan of gypsies, living in a cart, entertaining where they could, moving out of the gypsi caravan when it suited them to be recognized as something more then thieves and entertainers. Sleeping at local nobles castle, with gypsies caravan parked in the backyard, they were awoken that night by the screams and crying. Several guards and servants ran around confused as to what was happening until one after another started attacking each other. This continued for some time afflicting several gypsies too. Some time after it started from the castle emerged several feral figures that hunted down those still standing around or running from the castle. Affiks parents tried to run out of the castle and away into the night. They were swarmed and promptly killed in front of terrified child's eyes by having their throats bitten open and their life blood drained by the hunters. Strangely, they just held onto the child without harming him. Finaly, regal figure in midnight blue robes with fire motiffs and red symbol in front strode out of the gate carrying limp body of a child. Scanning the scene in front if the gate, figure purposefuly strode toward Affiks location. As it neared it became clear it's a unearthly handsome man with pale complexion. He called to Affik and unaware that he obeyed until he was outside Andor came. Dropping dead child in front of him he spoke: [COLOR=DarkRed]"Ovo je osveta za ono što sam postao zahvaljujuci svom pretku. De Andradi su zaboravili prokletstvo svoje obitelji i imali više od jednog djeteta kako bi nastavili lozu. Umjesto da mi dopuste da uzmem dijete odlucili su satrti lozu. Neka tako bude. Nijedan de Andrade nece živjeti ako ja, Fyrrlan Redspike de Andrade saznam za njega!"[/COLOR] Words were unfamiliar to Affik, but their meaning clear in his mind. It seems that lords knew something was coming for them as they killed they own children and then themselves seconds before this creature came. Then he bit into Affiks neck and drank bringing him to the brink of death. Whole affair lasted for the night. Nobody survived the event. Affik was brought within the castle over the day and he woke weak and helpless later during the day. After sunset he witnessed raising of his parents and other that perished that night and their feeding upon helpless villagers that were kept alive for this purpose. After everyone but Affik were dead whole entourage dissapeared into the night, leaving Affik with Andor de Andrade's body, words of the message forever etched into his mind. Affik felt strangely dettached from whole affair. There was no crying, no pain, no joy, no nothing. In the morning he carried the boy's body outside to provisionaly burry it and headed toward nearest town. As the wind outside touched him, it swirled, clean, purify, angry. It strengthened and grew into localized whirlwind and Affik felt pain as never before, cleansing cleaning, stripping away corruption left by the touch of the vampires. He collapsed and when he woke, saddness from the loss and thoughts of revenge were raging inferno within him. He swore vengeance and the storm answered. The lightning burned noble boy body Affik carried leaving only small ring in a pile of ashes. Affik took that signet ring and assumed the identity of Andor Anande de Andrade. Knowing that sooner or later, vampire that slew his parents will hear about him and hopefuly come to claim him. He came into the temple of Talos, fury, storm and vengeance, as an orphan willing to learn, to avenge the light that was taken from his life. The catastrophy was soon discovered and the bodies of the slain blessed and burned and castle abandoned as cursed. Andor was left somewhat gray of skin, some of his earlier memories and skills deleted from his memory by life draining touch of a vampire replaced by the words and image of slaughter and Fyrrlan Redspike, being he realized later was an elder vampire. Relatively short time afterwards, the boys original upbringing took over and senseless violence and destruction of the Talos priests grated on his sensibilites. After risking his life to save a village against his former comrades, he returned to the teaching of his mothers faith, still in its elven guise. Free spirit of the young man took him from one place to another until he happened onto a bardic college, a great library in which he lost himself for a time, learning, honing the broad knowledge of his father into applied knowledge of people, their motivations, knowledge about undead, monsters that preyed upon the world of men, but also softer skills of influencing the people with music, dancing...magic if needed. He learned what he could about the vampire, researched the words that he heard that fateful night. The words echoed in his mind now translated in common language as he translated the language of his nemesis: [COLOR=DarkOrange] "This is the revenge for what I became thanks to their ancestor. De Andrades forgot the curse of their family and had more then one child to carry on the line. Instead of letting me have the extra child they decided to end the line here and now. Let it be so. Let it be known that no de Andrade will live if I, Fyrrlan Redspike de Andrade know about him! [/COLOR] He kept traveling around, helping people fend off various spirits, monster or fellow men as he could. He formed small groups of like minded individuals showing himself an [I]Inspiring Leader[/I] of men. In time, as he grew older and wiser, with more then one close brush with death, he settled (somewhat) into the great city in the service of a powerful noble. In the city, his skills grew as he expanded his contacts, now organized into a network as he remained at one place for longer time. After ten years of such service, occasional foray into forbidden libraries (stealing the knowledge) or negotiating entrance into closed ones through his contacts or his lords influence, Andor realized two things. First, the humanity is loosing the battle as small minded, sheltered nobles and officials closed their own security ever tighter around themselves without taking the offensive against the outside threats. And second, knowledge is power. His contacts ofter warned him about various strange events or threats before they became apparent to common populace and he took it upon himself to prevent them from becoming anything more. In time, he grew both rich and powerful enough to be recognized and due to his powerful patron he was known to city nobles too. When one of his warnings and his direct action prevented new born babe being exchanged for a changling and when he revealed dark cult blooming among dissenchanted women of the city, he was made a noble and he took the name of de Andrade. Andor learned to be cautious with his knowledge. He became somewhat jaded, but still tries to find the best in people. Hard lines and salt-and-pepper hair show his experience, too light, too intense eyes betray his heritage. And that same experience led him to hard earned lesson: have a plan for every eventuality, every plan needs a failsafe. Over time, he heard about several other powerful individuals visiting the city or its environs, each having its own strengths, each fighting loosing battle against the tide of evil even encountering some of them on the field. He decided to take the fight back out of the protected cities and into the wild. Looking for a mage, he went into city guild and asked to see their most powerful adventuring mage. Traveling to the residence of an elven palading living in the nearby wood, he fell into an ambush and was saved by diminutive flying faerie which nevertheless vanquished her foes with effiency and power that bellied her small stature. After some back and forth, all the individuals in question agreed to form Iustitia Legio (Justice Legion) forming a council of the new order with elven paladin offering his forest home as orders headquarters. Being close to the city and yet outside of it, it was perfectly positioned. And with such powerful protector as Arcturus Rime, there was little chance of it being overrun by occasinal wondering monster. s [/sblock] [/QUOTE]
