Fluff

Background

Three months ago, a disabled warforged washed ashore near Dauton. It was distinct in several aspects. First, it was dressed in the remains of fine red and purple silks, long since destroyed by the sea. Second, "he" claimed to have no memories, just a strong, nagging feeling of purpose for the need to face "a time of dark challenges" ahead. But the oddest thing was mark embedded on its forehead. Each warforged has a "soul symbol" as unique as a grain of sand. But this mark was anything but unique; it was a mark known far and wide.

It was the mark of Mauros Esthanapiros, wizard of the the Five.

Since Incarnation's appearance, tales and rumors have surrounded him. There are those that claim that Mauros was seen in the company of a warforged that was not his colleague Arek Steelsheath shortly before the Five's final appearance. Others hushedly speak of his visits to Final Foundry in Dauton, perhaps visiting the creation forge itself. Finally, there are darker whispers that Mauros' obsession with extending life and his willingness to do anything to make sure he would survive. The strange warforged's infernal gifts—gifts known to be associated with malign powers—and his markings give credence to this suppositions, but the truth has yet to be revealed. But for the warforged now known as Incarnation, this vague purpose is all he has.

Appearance

Incarnation is dressed in relatively fine red and purples. He keeps his head covered most of the time to hide his mark of Mauros. The warforged is large and somewhat sinister in construction, and occasionally lines of hellfire course its plating.

Age: Unknown Gender: "Male" Height: 6'5" Weight: 290 lb.

Personality

Alignment: Unaligned

Incarnation listens before speaking, and when he speaks, it is direct and to the point. His attention is often very focused, but on details that others do not see. His behavior can be off-putting, but that does not concern the 'forged.

Hooks

• Persistent rumors of his ties to Mauros surround Incarnation. There are many varieties, the most common of that being he literally houses the wizard's consciousness. Those that favored or opposed the wizard occasionally seek Incarnation out for this reason.
• Incarnation often finds himself unwitting following in Marous' footsteps. For example, he can often be found visiting the statue to Marous' former master.
• Incarnation spends much of his time trying to find out what the "impending doom" that nags him could be.

Kicker

Incarnation's sudden appearance and his supposed ties to one of the Five is the entire kicker.

Recent History

The Sibylline Idol Deep beneath Daunton, a threat from beyond that was once dealt with by the Five was reemerging. Incarnation was drawn in these familiar footsteps, a wayward eladrin, an unsure shifter, a haunted wizard, and a stolid warrior his companions. As it was before, it was now: The gateway was sealed and that which should not be was held at bay. For now.

Judge Comments

Approval 1

1 Approval from Halford, Incarnation

Notes:

1.) Hellish rebuke has the characters name listed as Implement, this has been edited.

2.) Warforged Resolve does not have the target or special lsited, I have added these.

Approval 2

2. Approval from --Graf 01:45, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
Attributes cost/bonuses correct, batt correct, def ok, saves ok, senses & skills OK (but see Request) , health ok, powers ok, encumbrance/gold spent ok

Your summary is correct, however
a) In the math section Initiative had +1 attribute bonus, but your dex is 10
a) In the math section you had same issue for your skills table (you've got +1 for dex in skills table)

Since the summary is "correct" (or at least consistent with you having a 10 dex) I just changed the inputs in the table. If you're agreeable the character is approved. If not please advise.

Aside: Fantastic backstory; love the way you've plugged into the setting, and articulated everything with a concise set of hooks and kickers.

Level 2

Comments from TwoHeadsBarking

• Warforged Resolve now gives 4 temp hp.

I'll go ahead and fix that, and I approve you for level 2. Now you just need a real judge to do the same. edit: Pending, of course, on the approval of the PHB2.
