[QUOTE="Ringmereth, post: 2607873, member: 33915"] Here's a rough outline: Gevarth Fehrenn Background: Gevarth was born in Sharn, but he felt the calling of the Silver Flame early in his life. He studied diligently and joined the church as an acolyte at an early age, and by adulthood had left the confines of the great city and travelled to Thrane and the great city of Flamekeep. The young man was awed at the Flamist style and the ever-present influences of his diety throughout Thrane's culture. He was accepted into the ranks of the clergy there, but as his knowledge of the Flame increased, so did his disgust with the rampant corruption within the church. He left Flamehold after four years of devoted service, and spent another two travelling the length and width of Khorvaire. While his devotion to the church may have waned, he still commanded the divine magic of the Silver Flame, and many a soldier in the Last War owed his life to Gevarth's clever strategy and potent healing. While in the service of Breland, he found himself fighting the paladins and faithful he had once lived alongside. He saw that while those in power may have been long since corrupted, the nation still had the potential to live up to the Silver Flame's teachings. He left behind his life as a sellsword and sought out the church once more. Rather than returning to corrupted Thrane, he instead found a Brelish church, where he volunteered his services. The high priest, an old changling man, taught him a different, and to Fehrenn's eyes, purer version of his faith; one that rejected the Thranish theocracy as an abuse of power and the cause of the widespread corruption of the highest church authorities. He also trained him in methods of seeking out and destroying corruption. Challenged by these teachings, Gevarth served the Brelish church until the Treaty of Thronehold was signed in 996. Overjoyed at the end of the long-lasting conflict, he decided to return once more to Thrane, hoping that an atmosphere of peace might help bring about an end to illegitimate leadership. After months of campaigning and the formation of an organization seeking the reinstatement of secular government to Thrane, the Seperatist League, Gevarth had accomplished little beyond attracting the ire of the Cardinals. Then he met Alistair ir'Indari, who offered him generous contributions to his cause in exchange for his assistance in a few tasks. He has since been a key part of Alistair's team, using his new reknown as an adventurer to rally support for his organization and gain the trust of those in power, particularly supporters of the royal family. Description: Gevarth is a thoughtful, introspective man of high morals and great devotion to the diety embodied in the Silver Flame. His alliegance to the church that worships it is limited, though, and he remains a vocal critic of the meld of church and government in Thrane. While he holds the (limited) power of the Seperatists, most of its administration is dealt with by his second-in-command, who often leads the group while Gevarth quests for Alistair. Mechanics: Gevarth is a lawful good human Cleric 4/Church Inquisitor 3 (from Complete Divine), with the protection, good, and inquisition domains. If you'll allow it, Gevarth will take the Leadership feat to reflect his political following. As for future advancement, Gevarth will probably take Church Inquisitor for it's full duration, and then either finish with either Cleric, Contemplative, or, if you'd okay it, a variation on the Radiant Servant of Pelor-the Silver Flame is about as close to a good-aligned sun god as Eberron has, and I think it'd work nicely with a bit of adaptation.
