[QUOTE="Lou, post: 4058097, member: 51567"] [b]Alton Kanri, Human Cloistered Cleric/Battle Sorcerer of the Light[/b] As he cuts into the duck with his fork, Alton pauses to listen to his new comrades as they discuss building and the expansion of cultures. For him, such discussions were common and all too were often ended with someone invoking the current teachings of the Light, so the true free flow of ideas was refreshing. The last 30-some-odd days had been a delightful change from the near-imprisonment the cloistered cleric of the Light had grown accustomed to. The Light did not look that much more favorably on Alton’s sorcerery than it did Ederin’s druidic powers. Although they were from different abbeys, they both understood the rigidity of the doctrine of the Light. Alton had previously met the dwarves Pandak and Conrad at church functions.

Alton stands about 6 foot-2 inches tall, his weight hard to judge in his omnipresent flowing clerical robes. While some of the others carry their weapons everywhere, Alton does not.
