Message: <blockquote data-quote="Rhun" data-source="post: 3127531" data-attributes="member: 29098">J. Alexander,I've posted a tentative background for my cleric, Vadric Elareon, below...can you take a read, and give me some suggestions on how to improve it to fit in best with yoru campaign world? Thanks!The character sheet is also close to being finished. I just need to choose feats, and decide what equipment a warrior-priest of Heironeous will need. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" />[sblock=Background for Vadric Elareon]BackgroundVadric was born in a small community in the Valley of the Light, son of a remnant of the old nobility. While his family had some money and power, most all they were left with was the fading glory of the past. Vadric, determined to restore some of the glory to the family name, entered service with the military. After only the most basic of training, he found himself in his first battle…against dwarves.Vadric held his blade and shield ready as he neared the foe. What dwarves were doing this far into human lands was anyone’s guess, but they were certainly up to no good, and it fell to his company to stop them. The young warrior was determined to prove himself in this, his first combat…but for Vadric, the battle was over quickly. Screams and the smell of blood nearly overwhelmed his senses, and then his opponent was on him. Vadric never stood a chance against the skilled dwarven foe. The warhammer slammed into his head, and only his steel helm prevented it from crushing his skull. He fell into darkness.He awoke to find himself bathed in soft, white light. Before him stood a tall knight in golden plate, flaming sword in hand. Vadric knew at once that it was no mere knight standing before him, but Heironeous himself. And when the god spoke, Vadric listened. When the young man finally regained consciousness, he found himself being attended by a battle surgeon…most of his companions had been slain in the fight. The surgeon dismissed Vadric’s vision as a result of his head wound, and so it may have been. Regardless, the young man sought special dispensation to withdraw from the military, so that he could seek service in the Church.He rose quickly through the ranks of the Church, his unwavering loyalty and steadfastness to the Light helping to cut through the red tape of ecclesiastical politics. As a member of a religious order holding Saint Heironeous as its patron, Vadric found himself on the battlefield often, fighting and adding the Valley’s troops. He has been knighted for his actions in battle, and has proven himself worthy of the accolade on many occasions. [/sblock]</blockquote>
