Adventure Across Khorvaire - Reflections

Very well then, I hope this is sufficient:

Ellias Aubec

Lived for years in his home in Aerenal, learning to tend to the Psiforged and other psi related devices in the cities. After many years, his latent abilities formed themselves and he became able to create a psi sword aout of nothing, and keep it around due to sheer willpower. Interested in this new ability, Ellias left his lands in order to enrol at the Morgrave University to better udnerstand himself. He had also discovered a hidden Psiforged in a glade back in Aerenal, and wishes to discover more information so that he can reanimate it, and bend it to do his will.

At 118, he is much older than the majority of the students at the university, however due to the specific and narrowness of his previous job, he is at around the same sort of understanding as other students. The natural aloofness of the Gray Elf, combined with the poor charisma and high intelligence meant that Ellias has few friends in the university, and prevents the majority of people from interacting with him for fear or repulsion. However his high intelligence and dexterity has made him a class leader in practical lessons, and allowed him to master his mindblade abilities to some degree.

Ah ok then, will change it to pure Elf - doesn't change the stats though really. Plus, I don;t really have access to the books themselves - I'm working from the free stuff on one of the wikis, so action points are not in there - how do you determine how many you get?

The beguiler class would probably work well for your character. As for the Able Learner feat from Races of Destiny, I'm going to say no. I don't have access to the book, thus the reason I am not allowing stuff from that source. And if you go with beguiler, you probably don't need to worry about cross-class skills anyways, as the beguilers class skill list is quite extensive.


No problem. Beguiler came to my mind exactly to avoid the problem altogether...hadn't thought about it at first...

What do you think about the concept anyway? Do you want the charachters to have a stronger link with the Morgrave?

At first level? You have 5, unless you've taken the feat that gives you 2 more per level.
 

Anyway, I have to say that, though I don't really know if I have a chance to be picked, I am very pleased to see a lot of different characters here, with a variety of roles, both in and out of combat, a variety of personalities and views of the world and goals. Whomever gets picked i guess they will make a fun game! Not to mention that Eberron _is_ perfect for this kind of situation, for any range of levels.

Nice concept Isida. Odviously scaling her back would be required (which you mentioned). Though Sharn makes a better location for your background, the campaign is going to start at the Wroat campus of Morgrave University. Before the game starts we would have to change this up or incorporate a temporary assignment to the Wroat campus. Whatever works for you.
I think I can include a work assignment to Wroat. Yes... that should be fairly easy to work in. I'll work on scaling her back possibly sometime in the middle of this week. I'm not going to give her an animal companion until she hits third level, because she's just too weird to be happy with a dog or eagle or something.
 


On second thought, I better drop out of the running for this one. If I get accepted for the other game I tried for, I won't have much other time, and if I don't - well, I'll just keep looking. :) Have fun, everyone!
 

Here my character. I've stated him and added a bit to his background. A note, I've decided to put him Lawful Evil to show that he is loyal to his organization, but when he is not limited in the mean to acheive his goal and that he is more self-centered. It won't prevent him to do good actions, because good action bring friendship that can be used to acheive some goals, but every action will be motivated around himself.

Feat: Least Dragonmark (Shadow - Disguise Self)
[/sblock][/SBLOCK]

Appearance:

Personality:
Saellin is self imbue. He thinks he can handle almost anything and that he will acheive some greater deeds for his house. But he lack the patience and doesn't think yet in long terms objectives.

He is very social and friendly, but he prefers to maintain friendship he knows that will bring him things and won't bother much to establish and maintain a relation that seems useless ot his eyes.

But even if he is self-centered in general, he understand the need for a strong organization and follow the line of it. As many member of his organization, he doesn't mind to go as far as needed to acheive the objectives he has, including killing and torturing.

Background:
Saellin is a young member of the Shadow network. He has manifested his mark at an early age, which has given him lot of attention from his family, an attention he has put into profit. He has been using it to get what he wanted from his related who aren't marked. But even if he was abusing of that attention, his silver tongue always allowed him to get out without any problem.

When he grew older, he was taken under the wing of the Shadow Network. When he started his training, he was the youngest, without experience and among others who had the mark. He was no more the center of attention of his world. He grow bitter and is a bit more angry. But his mentor, Innailla d'Thuranni, an influencial singer in Sharn and a beautifull woman quickly learned to manipulate her young pupil. She seduced him and manipulated him to turn all this bad energy into one driving goal, proved to everyone that he worth more then the others.

Three month ago, he finished his training. Saelin was assign to Morgrave University for his first task. He was recommended to Alain Gourthan to help him in his public relation. He was hired, but Saelin have been more working on paperwork then anything else. His skill with a pen has allowed him to transcribe books and images. Saelin hidden agenda is to uncover as much as possible about the rumors about Gourthan big expedition, but have failed up to now, but he is determine to find something that would impress Innailla, which seems to start to ignore him lately.

A week ago, Alain Gourthan asks his clerk to travel to the campus in Wroat. Gourthan want to promote his class and bring new students and also need to gain access to a few book that are tied to Wroat's library. The new duty of Saellin is to transcribe some pages of a few books he has given the reference and to find new potential students for Gourthan's class. He also has told him he might get more instruction later while he was there, but the young elf doesn't know yet what it is. For now, it seems a pretty boring assignment, but he hope he will finally acheive something worthwill for her mentor, or be given a more serious task to do.
