[QUOTE="Neurotic, post: 4006135, member: 24380"] [b]Truenamer[/b] Hey, JA, just out of curiosity, what is it you don't like in truenamer? Lou, no luck with seeing truenamer in action :) and you'd be hard pressed to prove that he uses magic instead of sorcery... Here is then history of Thornrose: Edward Thornrose was born into forgotten noble family turned merchant and then ruined by amoral competition using less then honorable methods. For as long as he can remember he was poor and perpetualy on the verge of starving. Finaly, they really started starving as his parents will to live broke and they stopped even trying. They lived off streets, begging (Edward more then they) and picking up scraps. One night in the middle of the winter, Edward woke up, unable to feel the warmth of his parents he slept between. He still felt the bodies, but no heat. Fearing the worst he threw blankets off and lighted a lantern. His parents stirred and then rose, eyes shining yellow in the light, faces contorting in parody of smile, sharp teeth visible with long tongue licking cracked lips. [COLOR=Gray]Cooome, son, come to your mom.[/COLOR] one of new ghouls called. Terrified beyond belief, Edward bolted through the sewers that were his home for past several years and didn't stop until he was outside, shivering on the snow under clear winter sky. Finally, practicaly dead from fear, exaustion and cold, he stumbled into guard patrol that took him to church orphanage. His will to live proved stronger then shock of loosing everything, his parents were burden for him as they didn't want to live anymore, but he sustained them from love. Now that it was taken away in worse possible way, he took to helping others avoid same fate. He grew up strong in the light, his intimate knowledge of sewers and less reputable parts of town helping ferret out any threat to poor that might have appeared. In the orphanage he learned a lot about undead and knew exactly what befell his parents. They are probably destroyed by now, but hw knows not for certain. All he knows is that he will do his utmost best to prevent that from happening to others. He will spend his money on poor, bring children to orphanage and kill undead on sight. For that purpose he always carries small mace in addition to his usual short sword. As you can guess, he is your resident rogue. If there is feat, ability or variant class that allows him to sneak attack undead, I'm taking it :) Otherwise, he needs class skill, Knowledge (Religion) for undead and will search for items with ghosttouch (both armor and weapons) and death ward...
