You might remember that I’m running the Age of Worms adventure path for my tabletop group. One of the characters no longer a part of the adventure is a rogue/cleric who longed for the fame and fortune that was sure to come from thwarting Kyuss. I present to you Aden Moontears, onetime boatman in service to Prince Ellival Moonmeadow of Diamond Lake, now a cleric-in-residence in the Free City of Greyhawk. Aden left the prince’s service when the party began their journey to Greyhawk to seek council with Eligos. After the events at Blackwall Keep, he sought specialized training to become more effective against undead. When the ulgurstasta was defeated during the Champion’s Belt, he decided to remain in Greyhawk at the temple of Olidammara (and the player made a wizard). Feel free to use him as an NPC or as a 9th-level character for someone who’s jumping into a D&D 3.5 game.
