[QUOTE="mhd, post: 3491653, member: 16805"] [b]Sheng Xuan, Khitan Outcast[/b] So, this is my character. This might still be subject to some change, e.g. I might sacrifice some points so that I have a common language with other players. I haven't selected my spells, either. Name: Sheng Xuan Concept/Calling: Khitan Outcast Sorcerer Born as a third son to a rich noble house, Sheng spent his youth idling around. His laziness prompted his father to summon a local priest with an oracular talent. He consulted his mystic yarrow stalks and pronounced "Lord Xuan, the gods have spoken: Within contemplation, your son will find his power". The following week the protesting Sheng was sent to a distant monastery, cursed to spend the next few years (at least!) in ascetic devotion. He wasn't quite happy about that. At least the monastery had some interesting books about the local people and their tales. In one, he found the seed that let to his power -- and his exile. He managed to contact a Fox Spirit and pretended successfully to be fully on his way to holiness. Hungry for the immortality this promised to the spirit, he bound his power to Sheng.
