Varan Tor is a member of The Fated, although he would deny it if ever asked. He has some ties to the Harmonium as well, but they are false, for he uses his knowledge and light camaraderie with the Harmonium's agents to sneak black market magical items and artifacts into the city undetected, for use by his bretheren. Especially the sort of item that prevents detection from the Harmonium's seers, allowing The Fated to act without reprisals. He also has ties to the Dustmen, for he has provided them with a steady source of corpses (Harmonium agents who got in his way) although the Dustmen know him under a different name (Torras) and know nothing of him being a Fated. His many item runs have earned him a small fortune, that he has meticulously spent on equipment. Furthering his power will only make him better at his task, therefore earning him more coin, therefore aquiring himself more gear, thus furthering his power. It's a circle he's quite happy with. Power is his God. When creating items with word activation, the word is always 'Power', although most often in an obscure language so as not to be so obvious.

NEED AMULET OF MIGHTY FISTS!
Background:
Growing up in a world of chaos is not as easy as one would think. Growing up as a creature of war and martial prowess holds similar difficulties. Growing up as an above average intelligent Blue Slaad in a lower caste when at any moment you can be whisked away to fight some wizard’s fight is particularly vexing. Sturrv is all of these.
On a long enough timeline, the survival rate for every Slaad is zero. But for a Blue, shorten that timeline significantly and the same point is made. The fact that Sturrv is still alive is a testament to his ability to adapt. Friends among Slaadi is a risky thing, as one never knows when situations change, for as every Blue knows, when you need to fight, you fight, no matter who you must face.
The wicked hand Sturrv and other Slaadi are dealt has reared its head a few occasions, as he has been summoned to some powerful wizard’s bidding on some prime world. The first time this event occurred confused Sturrv to the extreme. In an instant he appeared in a world unlike anything he had ever seen, his will bent toward the summoner’s whims, being forced to fight creatures whose like he had never imagined, defending a ragtag group of humanoids. The disorientation left him hindered and he was quickly overmatched. With death immanent, Sturrv was more than surprised when instead of lack of existence or being whisked to the spiritual realm, he was right back where he had started, without a scratch.
The second time this happened, Sturrv wasn’t as discombobulated as the first, but it was still quite an uncomfortable experience, nevertheless. Each successive time did nothing to alleviate this anxiety, and Sturrv loathed it, while other Blues relished the opportunity. He soon became nervous that at any moment he could be magically transported to some unknown location and made to die again and again. In time, and with a favor from a powerful Green, in exchange for a few deaths on its behalf, Sturrv found himself in Sigil, where no spellcaster can call on his services. Where he can walk without looking over his shoulder, expecting to see a landscape full of mountains, green grass, and blue skies.[/sblock]

Light Ray (Ex)
A ghaele in globe form can project light rays with a range of 300 feet. This attack overcomes damage reduction of any type.
Alternate Form (Su)
A ghaele can shift between its humanoid and globe forms as a standard action. In humanoid form, it cannot fly or use its light rays, but it can use its gaze attack and spell-like abilities, make physical attacks, and cast spells. In globe form, it can fly, use its light rays, and use spell-like abilities, but it cannot cast spells or use its gaze attack. The globe form is incorporeal, and the ghaele has no Strength score while in that form.
A ghaele remains in one form until it chooses to assume a new one. A change in form cannot be dispelled, nor does the ghaele revert to any particular form when killed. A true seeing spell or ability, however, reveals both forms simultaneously.
Tongues (Su)
Ghaeles can speak with any creature that has a language, as though using a tongues spell (caster level 14th). This ability is always active.

[sblock=appearance, background and personality]
Levin, in his flesh-form, appears in a beautiful mithral full-plate armour covered by a cloak of purest white Arborean silk. With large and expressive eyes, luminous with light and shadow, hair as black as the darkest night and a perfect masculine face chiseled out of mortals' belief in freedom, compassion and love he looks like the ideal Ghaele champion. A Fact that he makes good use of.
He saw the multiverse, and he fell. He saw the evil inherent in good, the law inherent in chaos, and he fell. He questioned what even entities of pure freedom are not allowed to question and he fell. Disillusioned with the slavery to the ideal of freedom that chained his fellow Eladrin and the authoritarian symbol of Morwel as the "Queen of freedom" he set out to free himself. For without freedom from ideals, freedom from morality, a cutter can never be truly free.
Recklessly severing all his ties to the past he fall fast and he fell hard. Nothing was beyond him, no cruelty and no kindness, no act of stoisism or perversion. Though a part of him cried out in horror he resolved to gain freedom even from his conscience. For a time he became like a demon as he spiraled ever deeper into new and fascinating depths of cruelty until at last he was sated. Having purged himself of all his ties to Good he set out to free himself from Evil, not out of regret or revulsion but simply to once again assert his autonomy. But what is done cannot so easily be reversed and he had grown comfortable in his new mindset. Turning once again towards Good to free himself from Evil could be seen as a form of slavery to Change itself, an obsession of revolutions. Having systematically jaded himself he found that he no longer cared as much for bold and demonstrative acts of rebellion and begun to settle down into his new state of being. Though he occasionally looks back on what he was with a sense of wry amusement he is no longer nostalgic for what he has lost.
Factions, friends and enemies
Refusing to tie himself down to any single faction Levin has dabbled in many of them. The ones he are closest to philosophically and has the most allies in are the Sensates and the Fated, but has associated with the Doomguard, Athar, Bleakers, the Free League, the Revolutionary League and even briefly the Mercykillers. He has little but contempt for the Xaositects (regarding their antics as meaningless and counterproductive), the Dustmen (finding their attitude towards immortal outsiders irksome) and the Godsmen (considering them hopelessly naive) but has some sympathies for the Transcendent order and the Sign of One. He regards the Lawful factions with a somewhat detached condescending tolerance, tempered with a healthy respect for the Fraternity of Order.

Light Ray (Ex)
A ghaele in globe form can project light rays with a range of 300 feet. This attack overcomes damage reduction of any type.
Alternate Form (Su)
A ghaele can shift between its humanoid and globe forms as a standard action. In humanoid form, it cannot fly or use its light rays, but it can use its gaze attack and spell-like abilities, make physical attacks, and cast spells. In globe form, it can fly, use its light rays, and use spell-like abilities, but it cannot cast spells or use its gaze attack. The globe form is incorporeal, and the ghaele has no Strength score while in that form.
A ghaele remains in one form until it chooses to assume a new one. A change in form cannot be dispelled, nor does the ghaele revert to any particular form when killed. A true seeing spell or ability, however, reveals both forms simultaneously.
Tongues (Su)
Ghaeles can speak with any creature that has a language, as though using a tongues spell (caster level 14th). This ability is always active.

[sblock=appearance, background and personality]
Levin, in his flesh-form, appears in a beautiful mithral full-plate armour covered by a cloak of purest white Arborean silk. With large and expressive eyes, luminous with light and shadow, hair as black as the darkest night and a perfect masculine face chiseled out of mortals' belief in freedom, compassion and love he looks like the ideal Ghaele champion. A Fact that he makes good use of.
He saw the multiverse, and he fell. He saw the evil inherent in good, the law inherent in chaos, and he fell. He questioned what even entities of pure freedom are not allowed to question and he fell. Disillusioned with the slavery to the ideal of freedom that chained his fellow Eladrin and the authoritarian symbol of Morwel as the "Queen of freedom" he set out to free himself. For without freedom from ideals, freedom from morality, a cutter can never be truly free.
Recklessly severing all his ties to the past he fall fast and he fell hard. Nothing was beyond him, no cruelty and no kindness, no act of stoisism or perversion. Though a part of him cried out in horror he resolved to gain freedom even from his conscience. For a time he became like a demon as he spiraled ever deeper into new and fascinating depths of cruelty until at last he was sated. Having purged himself of all his ties to Good he set out to free himself from Evil, not out of regret or revulsion but simply to once again assert his autonomy. But what is done cannot so easily be reversed and he had grown comfortable in his new mindset. Turning once again towards Good to free himself from Evil could be seen as a form of slavery to Change itself, an obsession of revolutions. Having systematically jaded himself he found that he no longer cared as much for bold and demonstrative acts of rebellion and begun to settle down into his new state of being. Though he occasionally looks back on what he was with a sense of wry amusement he is no longer nostalgic for what he has lost.
Factions, friends and enemies
Refusing to tie himself down to any single faction Levin has dabbled in many of them. The ones he are closest to philosophically and has the most allies in are the Sensates and the Fated, but has associated with the Doomguard, Athar, Bleakers, the Free League, the Revolutionary League and even briefly the Mercykillers. He has little but contempt for the Xaositects (regarding their antics as meaningless and counterproductive), the Dustmen (finding their attitude towards immortal outsiders irksome) and the Godsmen (considering them hopelessly naive) but has some sympathies for the Transcendent order and the Sign of One. He regards the Lawful factions with a somewhat detached condescending tolerance, tempered with a healthy respect for the Fraternity of Order.

[sblock=description]Harin in his natural form appears as a robed man with a head like that of a fanged brown jackal. However, most of the time while in Sigil he uses his Hat of Disguise to appear humanoid. (He uses it instead of shapechange in order to retain his natural armor and other resistances.)
He often appears as a robed blond elven man, giving his name as Alven and admitting to being a wizard.
Another disguise he uses is that of Thallel, a dark-green-haired tiefling with a rougish appearance who always sports a rapier at his side.
Despite his distain for mortals, these disguises allow him to operate in Sigil while attracting a minimum amount of attention. He does not want to draw the ire of Shemeska by openly appearing as a rival, and does not want his enemies to know where he is. Together with his ring of mind shielding, the disguises also screen him from most random hostility from paladins, celestials and their ilk.
When travelling from one area of Sigil to another, if he does not teleport, he will typically make himself invisible and fly.
Harin is proud of his ability to win battles even against powerful enemies or magic immune creatures, thanks to his clever preparations and carefully gathered items. Of course, he prefers to know well in advance what he will face so he can prepare spells and plans. While he like a good fight on occasion, he knows that it is often important to prevail by less direct means. He is studying the lore of archmages and plans to become one as soon as he figures out the secrets.
Some of his main enemies are Tanarri that he double crossed at some point, but his real fear is that the pit fiend he swindled wishes from – he does not know the Baatzeu’s name - will figure it out and bother to come after him. That was over three centuries ago, but fiends have long memories, and often play subtle games of revenge that take years to play out. Frannisa, the female arcanaloth that used to be a sort of mate to him years ago, was in on the game – equally guilty, but that does not comfort him; they did not part as allies. He has no idea where she is, and divinations always failed when he tried that.
Harin’s curiousity sometimes gets the better of him, and he will sometimes allow himself to travel to strange places even at certain risks to himself. Gehenna is the one plane he would avoid at almost any cost – too many enemies wait for him there, and it is the one plane where he is truely at risk of being slain. Sigil, therefore, is not a bad place to stay while he plots his next move. Nominally, he is currently an agent of the Tower of Arcanaloths and occasionally secures material and items for the library in exchange for the privilege to access certain of the records – and for not having his own location made public.
Recently, he made a foolish investment in “soul food” – which turned out to be a fraud, a mere style of actual food on some obscure Prime plane, not made of souls as he’d been promised and ‘shown’ by the fallen deva turned grifter, now vanished – and this has caused his current cash crunch; he now has few financial assets aside from the magic items on his back. While he seeks revenge, he feels a need to swiftly rebuild his fortune, so he would be open to opportunities should they arise.[/sblock]

Harin’s curiousity sometimes gets the better of him, and he will sometimes allow himself to travel to strange places even at certain risks to himself. Gehenna is the one plane he would avoid at almost any cost – too many enemies wait for him there, and it is the one plane where he is truely at risk of being slain. Sigil, therefore, is not a bad place to stay while he plots his next move. Nominally, he is currently an agent of the Tower of Arcanaloths and occasionally secures material and items for the library in exchange for the privilege to access certain of the records – and for not having his own location made public.
Recently, he made a foolish investment in “soul food” – which turned out to be a fraud, a mere style of actual food on some obscure Prime plane, not made of souls as he’d been promised and ‘shown’ by the fallen deva turned grifter, now vanished – and this has caused his current cash crunch; he now has few financial assets aside from the magic items on his back. While he seeks revenge, he feels a need to swiftly rebuild his fortune, so he would be open to opportunities should they arise.[/sblock]

[sblock=Background and Agenda]
That Nalakt is considered a mad prophet by his people is a sure sign that he is either more sane than the average mindflayer or else totally batsh*t crazy - in his case it's a bit of both. Nalakt holds some opinions about the future of the Illithid empire that would have surely gotten him killed or worse had he been born an Illithid. Given the reverence accorded to Ulitharids, he was instead simply regarded with a sort of wary respect - the way humans might treat a madman raving in the desert, too crazy to listen too, but too holy to ignore.
Nalakt's controversial idea is that the Illithid race should not be trying to repeat the actions that destroyed it so long ago - expanding across the stars - but should be learning more about the nature of the enemy that destroyed them - an enemy whose origin and power they could not comprehend. Nalakt believes that the key to their future success lies in understanding the planes and subverting or enslaving their more powerful denizens slowly but surely.

Name: Silhouette
Race: Tiefling
Class/Level: Beguiler 15 / Unseen Seer 2
Gender: Female
Exp:
Desc: Silhouette's true appearance is that of a shapely and beautiful female humanoid, with red irised eyes and skin that is truly black in color; the shade of shadows at midnight. She enjoys finery and luxury, and tends to dress in provacative clothes of high quality materials, or at least seem to. Very little in her day to day appearance is exactly as it seems however. Her skill in illusion magic makes her adept at adopting roles and altering her looks to become whoever and whatever she wishes at any given moment.

[sblock=Leadership stuff]Cohort: Dirge - 6th bard / 8th level human assassin
Dirge would be euphemistically called an 'asset' by modern intelligence agencies. She plays taverns and inns, gathering information and passing on what seems significant to Silhouette. On occasion Silhouette will have her follow up on a lead that she doesn't have time for, but requires skills in excess of what her other followers are capable of. Dirge is also a very capable and ruthless assassin; a calling which Silhouette asks her to fulfill infrequently...but sometimes. She represents one of the three major information "feeds" available to Silhouette, the other two being her network of eyes and ears (1st level followers) and her investigative company. Dirge also has authority over the company, though only as an extension of Sil. The network is kept completely separate, and Sil actually takes some pains to ensure that Dirge won't learn of them or how to recognize them.
Dirge is a gloriously beautiful human woman with rich blonde hair and a svelte, athletic physique. Her voice is melodious and clear, as entrancing to listen to as she is to look at. She's a well trained bard, and has earned a good reputation, if not exactly fame, as a solid performer and crowd pleaser in many of Sigil's festhalls, squares, and taverns. None who know the sweet-tempered but oddly shy seeming bard would ever equate her with Dirge...the silent assassin who is the steel underneath Silhouette's velvet. In truth she is both, and more besides. Broadly speaking, Dirge has two personalities...the good natured, if somewhat amoral bard...and the cold, relentless stalker. Both are loyal to Silhouette though, and the shadowy information broker treats Dirge very well to help ensure this.

Followers:
1st level - 50
2nd level - 5
3rd level - 3
4rth level - 2
5th level - 1
Follower breakdown:
40 of the 50 1st level followers are various NPC classes, and are in fact relatively ordinary people all around the Cage who keep their eyes and ears open for interesting tidbits of overheard conversations, drunken or afterglow confessions, who's meeting who, and so on...and report these to Silhouette via anonymous drops, or to anyone who gives them the appropriate passphrase. They are serving wenches, bartenders, whores, maids and butlers, smiths, touts, and people gathering deaders for the Dustmen.
The other 10 are functionaries for Devil's Eye Investigative, doing the bureaucratic work and such necessary to run the business. Mostly experts and some commoners for more brutish labor.
The 2nd level followers are 'junior investigators' for Devil's Eye. They do the boring stuff like canvass neighborhoods with likenesses, do screening interviews and so on. Social skill experts and rogues.
The 3rd level followers are 'senior investigators' for Devil's Eye. They do somewhat more interesting work; stakeouts, records searches, interviews with screened witnesses/sources, and other detective work. Two rogues and a wizard that helps with arcane matters.
The two 4rth level followers are "special investigators," at Devil's Eye, and are assigned tasks by Dirge or Silhouette. The lower level investigators, while they can be co-opted if needed, typically do the day to day investigative work that keep the business running. One is a warlock who goes by the moniker of Thorn, the other is a rogue named Freeling.
The 5th level follower is a beguiler named Squire Danforth, and is the public manager of Devil's Eye. He reports directly to Silhouette, though Dirge can and does give him orders as well. He generally devotes himself to running the business, though lends his aid when and where needed for a given mission. He spends a lot of time coordinating and dealing with the lower level employees. Squire serves Silhouette out of enlightened self interest. He stands to gain quite a bit of money and influence where he is if he can survive the enemies he makes, and if he can gain the protection of a powerful patron simply by doing her bidding, he's all for it. There is some tension between him and Thorn and Freeling, as they are often under orders he cannot countermand.[/sblock]

[sblock=Leadership stuff]Cohort: Dirge - 6th bard / 8th level human assassin
Dirge would be euphemistically called an 'asset' by modern intelligence agencies. She plays taverns and inns, gathering information and passing on what seems significant to Silhouette. On occasion Silhouette will have her follow up on a lead that she doesn't have time for, but requires skills in excess of what her other followers are capable of. Dirge is also a very capable and ruthless assassin; a calling which Silhouette asks her to fulfill infrequently...but sometimes. She represents one of the three major information "feeds" available to Silhouette, the other two being her network of eyes and ears (1st level followers) and her investigative company. Dirge also has authority over the company, though only as an extension of Sil. The network is kept completely separate, and Sil actually takes some pains to ensure that Dirge won't learn of them or how to recognize them.
Dirge is a gloriously beautiful human woman with rich blonde hair and a svelte, athletic physique. Her voice is melodious and clear, as entrancing to listen to as she is to look at. She's a well trained bard, and has earned a good reputation, if not exactly fame, as a solid performer and crowd pleaser in many of Sigil's festhalls, squares, and taverns. None who know the sweet-tempered but oddly shy seeming bard would ever equate her with Dirge...the silent assassin who is the steel underneath Silhouette's velvet. In truth she is both, and more besides. Broadly speaking, Dirge has two personalities...the good natured, if somewhat amoral bard...and the cold, relentless stalker. Both are loyal to Silhouette though, and the shadowy information broker treats Dirge very well to help ensure this.

Followers:

2nd level - 5
3rd level - 3
4rth level - 2
5th level - 1
Follower breakdown:
40 of the 50 1st level followers are various NPC classes, and are in fact relatively ordinary people all around the Cage who keep their eyes and ears open for interesting tidbits of overheard conversations, drunken or afterglow confessions, who's meeting who, and so on...and report these to Silhouette via anonymous drops, or to anyone who gives them the appropriate passphrase. They are serving wenches, bartenders, whores, maids and butlers, smiths, touts, and people gathering deaders for the Dustmen.
The other 10 are functionaries for Devil's Eye Investigative, doing the bureaucratic work and such necessary to run the business. Mostly experts and some commoners for more brutish labor.
The 2nd level followers are 'junior investigators' for Devil's Eye. They do the boring stuff like canvass neighborhoods with likenesses, do screening interviews and so on. Social skill experts and rogues.
The 3rd level followers are 'senior investigators' for Devil's Eye. They do somewhat more interesting work; stakeouts, records searches, interviews with screened witnesses/sources, and other detective work. Two rogues and a wizard that helps with arcane matters.
The two 4rth level followers are "special investigators," at Devil's Eye, and are assigned tasks by Dirge or Silhouette. The lower level investigators, while they can be co-opted if needed, typically do the day to day investigative work that keep the business running. One is a warlock who goes by the moniker of Thorn, the other is a rogue named Freeling.
The 5th level follower is a beguiler named Squire Danforth, and is the public manager of Devil's Eye. He reports directly to Silhouette, though Dirge can and does give him orders as well. He generally devotes himself to running the business, though lends his aid when and where needed for a given mission. He spends a lot of time coordinating and dealing with the lower level employees. Squire serves Silhouette out of enlightened self interest. He stands to gain quite a bit of money and influence where he is if he can survive the enemies he makes, and if he can gain the protection of a powerful patron simply by doing her bidding, he's all for it. There is some tension between him and Thorn and Freeling, as they are often under orders he cannot countermand.[/sblock]
