[Special Weapon] Foesmiter&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; -- Though the churches of Hieroneous and Pelor may consider Sebastian lost to his vengeance, the Priestess Lissandra nevertheless could not refrain from helping Sebastian. Thus Sebastian was sent Foesmiter as a gift. This bright, silvery blade is etched all along its fuller in celestial script bearing prayers of intercession for the fight against evil.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Ioun Stone (Pearly White) ........ [20,000gp] Small Favor&nbsp;-- Received as a gift from a blind sage, this small, seemingly insignificant stone didn't seem like much at the time. It was given with the advice, &quot;Every little thing plays a part in the destiny of the world.&quot; This small rock has greatly helped Sebastian's fight against the corrupted brothers.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Belt of Giant Strength (+4) ......

[16,000gp] Shield of Jade&nbsp;-- Taken from one of the higher-ranking former brothers after he lost his corrupted life, this ring still bears the olive branch symbol of Sebastian's old order, carved in dark green jade on a bronze band.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; +2 Fullplate of Calling [DotF] ...

[5,000gp] Gulp&nbsp;-- Bought from a gnome trader, this blue leather bag is sewn with a picture of an open clam shell. He told Sebastian it was once used to carry song pearls.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Amulet of Health (+2) ............. [4,000gp] Hopestone&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; -- Sebastian was given this mithril medallion with a large inset rose diamond by his wife, Miranda.

[4,000gp] Shadowhood&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; -- This cloak, with its large, concealing hood was created for an assassin of Hoar, who recently dispatched to help Sebastian track down an especially elusive former brother. During the adventure, the assassin was saved from certain death by a selfless act from Sebastian. The assassin thereafter decided to retire to a farm, leaving Sebastian his favorite cloak as a token of gratitude.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Ring of Sustenance ................ [2,500gp] Bounty's Boon&nbsp;-- Found around the finger of a long-dead man Sebastian discovered after back-tracking the trail of a band of slain lucrotta, this iron band, set with silver into symbols for food and drink, has allowed him to forgo the tedious business of eating while on his quest.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Necklace of Prayer Beads (Blessed) .. [500gp] Light's Blessing&nbsp;-- Carved from goldenwood, this necklace of prayer beads was given to Sebastian by a grateful druid of Obad-Hai after he helped her rid her grove of a vicious band of imps.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Masterwork Longsword ................

He wears black jackboots and black leather gloves, and his undershirt is black silk. His jacket goes goes to his thighs and has largle lapels and a stiff collar. In his left breast pocket he wears a black rose. When not preparing for combat, he wears a longsword at his hip instead of Foesmiter, which he keeps with Aerofax.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;Sebastian himself has short blond hair, piercing blue eyes, and would be considered quite attractive if it weren't for his perpetually dour look.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Background &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Sebastian Andovar began as a member of a holy order devoted to a minor LG demi-goddess of peace and tranquility. Andovar, as a member of the small but influential Order of the Olive, dedicated himself to thwarting violence and aggression through diplomacy and mediation. Even though he was trained and ready for war, Sebastian understood growing up under the Order's influence that violence, even for the best reasons of defense, was to be avoided. Military training in his life centered on protecting innocents and doing no harm; presenting a show of force without using it.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;Sebastian married and bore children before he was twenty. The life of a husband and father suited him well, since the adventures of Brothers of the Order of the Olive had little to do with adventuring and danger.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;Six years ago, Sebastian's world was taken from him. In a strange twisting of events in the Celestial realms, the patron demi-goddess of the Order of the Olive, Druvei, fell from grace, fleeing to the lower planes with a host of loyal celestials. Changing her name to Muarnain, she also took with her the loyalties of the Order of the Olive. Overnight, the Order was corrupted by the demi-goddess' evil influence. Somehow, Sebastian was spared. Seeking to recover the lost souls of his brethren, he urgently persuaded them to return to good. Instead, the Order presented him an ultimatum: join the fallen brothers, or lose everything. Sebastian persisted in his quest to recover his brothers. In retaliation, the Order brutally murdered Sebastian's wife and children.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;That moment marked Sebastian's turning from his former LG code. He swore an oath of vengeance upon the Order and its patron demi-goddess. One by one, he hunted the members of the Order, and hunts them still. He has searched far and wide, and will continue to do so until he has exterminated all remnants of the corrupted Order.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Sebastian's involvement with Orshallan:&nbsp;In a time long past, when Sebastian was still full of youth and optimism, he was asked by the church of Hieroneous to join their ranks as a paladin commander. Orshallan, however, was not so sure Sebastian's idealism was at all suited for a church requiring martial discipline and iron determination. It came as no surprise to Orshallan when Sebastian shunned the militarism of Hieroneous for the pacifist Order of the Olive and its patroness, the minor nature goddess Druvei (patronness of panthers and other large cats).&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Later, as Sebastian became a famed mediator, he was called upon to arbitrate a dispute between noble houses in which Orshallan's interests were pitted against Lissandra's. The result of the dispute was not in Orshallan's favor, and so his opinion of Sebastian is not very high. He dismissed Sebastian as a wet-behind-the-ears idealist with no grounding in the reality of a fallen world that needs fixing.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Today, however, he knows of Sebastian's recent &quot;change of heart.&quot; Though he would appreciate Sebastian's new-found willingness to take the battle to the enemy, he would most certainly disagree with his undisciplined and reckless methods. Still, Sebastian displays a convincing strength of character, and his dedication cannot be denied...&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Personality&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Once, Sebastian was the very personification of optimism and never-say-die spirit. He was the ultimate pacifist; there was no war that could not be averted; no wrong that could not be forgiven. Since the murder of his family, Sebastian has become a very different animal altogether. He is often cynical, but never to the point of demoralizing those around him. In battle, which he engages is without hesitation, he changes from a stoic pessimist to a killing machine fueled by grief and rage. Nothing can come between Sebastian and what he feels is his divine calling to exact vengeance upon those who have betrayed him; not even self-preservation (he is, however, very protective and will not allow group-mates to die before he does).&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;Sebastian is devotedly good. He helps any and all who are in need. However, given the choice between slaying an evil demon and saving a young child, he would probably choose the former, having reasoned in his head that the child is better off not living in a universe where such evil exists. His desire to thwart the plans of evil trump any other cause or former code of conduct he may have had.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;That is not to say Sebastian is psychopathic. Sebastian will not kill creatures simply for being evil, but for doing evil deeds. If he witnesses an evil act or hears of it, however, he must be restrained from acting out on his vengeful nature.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;Sebastian considers himself the champion of lost causes. Evil will prevail in the world, he thinks, and it is the duty of every good mortal to die fighting it. A spiteful death spitting in the face of implacable evil is the best and most glorious gesture one can aspire to. For this reason, he is often given to theatrical heroics.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Sebastian is moody and prefers black for mourning. His cloak of resistance has a large black hood which he prefers to keep up. His armor is lacquered black, and he often wears black roses in his coat pocket if he has access to buying them. In contrast, his sword is bright, silvery, and decorated with divine runes and celestial script. He calls it Foesmiter.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Sebastian, though he no longer feels bound to honor or any other idealistic nonsense, has still pledged himself to the LN deity Hoar. Sebastian feels he understands Hoar and his desire for revenge. Normally dark and dower, Sebastian nonetheless appreciates Hoar's bitter humor. Most of all, however, Sebastian sees himself as the champion of vengeance. No wronged person goes without recompense, so long as Sebastian is around. His mount, Aerofax, optimistically believes one day he will outgrow his devotion to Hoar and once again follow a good deity as he did before.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; EDIT: I sort of make him look more chaotic than he really is. His +18 in diplomacy checks denotes the fact that he always tries the peaceful way first. Each time he meets a former Brother, he gives them the same deal: repent or die. He never uses force as a first resort. His byline is &quot;My mercy is infinite... my patience is not.&quot;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;

Aerofax has no knowledge of her ancestry. Her earliest memory is being trained to take part in the Blood Wars as a great celestial warrior's mount. In her first battle, however, she and her mortally wounded rider were banished to the material plane. Wandering for years in the wild, she searched for a new master who would lead her into battle for good. It was some time befroe she finally happened upon Sebastian Andovar. Sebastian had been without a proper paladin's mount for several years. It was not long before Sebastian adopted Aerofax as his mount.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;Aerofax is a large white mare with white feathery wings. As a dire animal, she is covered with thick, chitinous plates. These are silvery metallic in appearance, making Aerofax appear as if she were wearing plate barding.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Personality&nbsp;Aerofax is the exact opposite of Sebastian in every way but alignment. Where Sebastian is dark and brooding, Aerofax is cheery and mirthful. While Sebastian has given up all hope for anything but a hopeless and futile yet glorious death, Aerofax believes that Sebastian can and will succeed in his quest. She takes every opportunity to buoy Sebastian's spirits in simple ways.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;Though Aerofax sympathizes with Sebastian's view that pacifism is weakness, she is extremely perturbed by Sebastian's bloodthirstiness, especially with respect to his fallen Brethren. When Sebastian acts from vengeance, Aerofax becomes physically upset, to the point of bucking and whinnying to make her displeasure known. In combat, however, Aerofax is an unrelenting combatant and ally of Sebastian, and reserves her (albeit immense) compassion for when the fight is over.</blockquote>

[u][b]Appearance[/b][/u] When he knows he's going into combat, Sebastian wears his pitch-black called fullplate, [i]Harbinger of Wrath[/i], which completely conceals his identity. When not in combat, Sebastian is smartly-dressed an all black uniform. He wears black jackboots and black leather gloves, and his undershirt is black silk. His jacket goes goes to his thighs and has largle lapels and a stiff collar. In his left breast pocket he wears a black rose. When not preparing for combat, he wears a longsword at his hip instead of [i]Foesmiter[/i], which he keeps with Aerofax. Sebastian himself has short blond hair, piercing blue eyes, and would be considered quite attractive if it weren't for his perpetually dour look. [u][b]Background[/b] [/u][color=Red] [color=LemonChiffon]Sebastian Andovar began as a member of a holy order devoted to a minor LG demi-goddess of peace and tranquility. Andovar, as a member of the small but influential Order of the Olive, dedicated himself to thwarting violence and aggression through diplomacy and mediation. Even though he was trained and ready for war, Sebastian understood growing up under the Order's influence that violence, even for the best reasons of defense, was to be avoided. Military training in his life centered on protecting innocents and doing no harm; presenting a show of force without using it. Sebastian married and bore children before he was twenty. The life of a husband and father suited him well, since the adventures of Brothers of the Order of the Olive had little to do with adventuring and danger. Six years ago, Sebastian's world was taken from him. In a strange twisting of events in the Celestial realms, the patron demi-goddess of the Order of the Olive, Druvei, fell from grace, fleeing to the lower planes with a host of loyal celestials. Changing her name to Muarnain, she also took with her the loyalties of the Order of the Olive. Overnight, the Order was corrupted by the demi-goddess' evil influence. Somehow, Sebastian was spared. Seeking to recover the lost souls of his brethren, he urgently persuaded them to return to good. Instead, the Order presented him an ultimatum: join the fallen brothers, or lose everything. Sebastian persisted in his quest to recover his brothers. In retaliation, the Order brutally murdered Sebastian's wife and children. That moment marked Sebastian's turning from his former LG code. He swore an oath of vengeance upon the Order and its patron demi-goddess. One by one, he hunted the members of the Order, and hunts them still. He has searched far and wide, and will continue to do so until he has exterminated all remnants of the corrupted Order. [b]Sebastian's involvement with Orshallan:[/b] In a time long past, when Sebastian was still full of youth and optimism, he was asked by the church of Hieroneous to join their ranks as a paladin commander. Orshallan, however, was not so sure Sebastian's idealism was at all suited for a church requiring martial discipline and iron determination. It came as no surprise to Orshallan when Sebastian shunned the militarism of Hieroneous for the pacifist Order of the Olive and its patroness, the minor nature goddess Druvei (patronness of panthers and other large cats). Later, as Sebastian became a famed mediator, he was called upon to arbitrate a dispute between noble houses in which Orshallan's interests were pitted against Lissandra's. The result of the dispute was not in Orshallan's favor, and so his opinion of Sebastian is not very high. He dismissed Sebastian as a wet-behind-the-ears idealist with no grounding in the reality of a fallen world that needs fixing. Today, however, he knows of Sebastian's recent "change of heart." Though he would appreciate Sebastian's new-found willingness to take the battle to the enemy, he would most certainly disagree with his undisciplined and reckless methods. Still, Sebastian displays a convincing strength of character, and his dedication cannot be denied... [u][b]Personality [/b][/u]Once, Sebastian was the very personification of optimism and never-say-die spirit. He was the ultimate pacifist; there was no war that could not be averted; no wrong that could not be forgiven. Since the murder of his family, Sebastian has become a very different animal altogether. He is often cynical, but never to the point of demoralizing those around him. In battle, which he engages is without hesitation, he changes from a stoic pessimist to a killing machine fueled by grief and rage. Nothing can come between Sebastian and what he feels is his divine calling to exact vengeance upon those who have betrayed him; not even self-preservation (he is, however, very protective and will not allow group-mates to die before he does). Sebastian is devotedly good. He helps any and all who are in need. However, given the choice between slaying an evil demon and saving a young child, he would probably choose the former, having reasoned in his head that the child is better off not living in a universe where such evil exists. His desire to thwart the plans of evil trump any other cause or former code of conduct he may have had. That is not to say Sebastian is psychopathic. Sebastian will not kill creatures simply for being evil, but for doing evil deeds. If he witnesses an evil act or hears of it, however, he must be restrained from acting out on his vengeful nature. Sebastian considers himself the champion of lost causes. Evil will prevail in the world, he thinks, and it is the duty of every good mortal to die fighting it. A spiteful death spitting in the face of implacable evil is the best and most glorious gesture one can aspire to. For this reason, he is often given to theatrical heroics. Sebastian is moody and prefers black for mourning. His cloak of resistance has a large black hood which he prefers to keep up. His armor is lacquered black, and he often wears black roses in his coat pocket if he has access to buying them. In contrast, his sword is bright, silvery, and decorated with divine runes and celestial script. He calls it [i]Foesmiter[/i]. Sebastian, though he no longer feels bound to honor or any other idealistic nonsense, has still pledged himself to the LN deity Hoar. Sebastian feels he understands Hoar and his desire for revenge. Normally dark and dower, Sebastian nonetheless appreciates Hoar's bitter humor. Most of all, however, Sebastian sees himself as the champion of vengeance. No wronged person goes without recompense, so long as Sebastian is around. His mount, Aerofax, optimistically believes one day he will outgrow his devotion to Hoar and once again follow a good deity as he did before. EDIT: I sort of make him look more chaotic than he really is. His +18 in diplomacy checks denotes the fact that he [i]always[/i] tries the peaceful way first. Each time he meets a former Brother, he gives them the same deal: repent or die. He never uses force as a first resort. His byline is [i]"My mercy is infinite... my patience is not."[/i] [/color][/color][font=Courier New][size=2][b] Aerofax[/b][/size][/font][b][size=2][font=Courier New, monospace] Winged Half-Celestial Dire Mare: CR 6 [i][MM, MM2] [/i][/font][/size][/b][size=2][font=Courier New, monospace][b]Class:[/b] Sebastian's Paladin Mount [b]Alignment:[/b] Chaotic Good [b]Size:[/b] Large [b]Str:[/b] .. 29 (+9) [+4 HC, +3 PM] [b]Dex:[/b] .. 15 (+2) [+2 HC] [b]Con:[/b] .. 26 (+8) [+4 HC] [b]Int:[/b] ... 8 (-1) [PM] [b]Wis:[/b] .. 19 (+4) [+4 HC] [b]Cha:[/b] .. 15 (+2) [+4 HC] [/font][font=Courier New][b]Hit Dice:[/b] 16d8 + 64 [+6 PM, +2 HC] [b]HP:[/b] [color=Red]143[/color]/160 [b]AC:[/b] 26 [-1 size, +2 Dex, +15 natural] [b]Init:[/b] +2 [+2 Dex] [b]Speed:[/b] 60ft; fly 120ft (good maneuverability) [b]ACP:[/b] -0[/font][/size] [size=2][font=Courier New, monospace][b]Class and Racial Abilties:[/b] - Scent [DH] - Lowlight vision [DH, HC] - Immune to acid, cold, disease and electricity [HC] - [i]Light[/i] at will [HC] - [i]Protection from Evil[/i] 3/day [HC] - [i]Bless[/i] 1/day [HC] - [i]Aid[/i] 1/day [HC] - [i]Detect Evil[/i] 1/day [HC] - [i]Cure Serious Wounds[/i] 1/day [HC] [i]- Neutralize Poison[/i] 1/day [HC] - [i]Holy Smite[/i] 1/day [HC] - [i]Remove Disease[/i] 1/day [HC] - [i]Dispel Evil[/i] 1/day [HC] - [i]Holy Word[/i] 1/day [HC] [i]- Holy Aura[/i] 3/day [HC] - [i]Hallow[/i] 1/day [HC][/font][/size] [size=2][font=Courier New, monospace]- Improved Evasion [PM] - Share Spells (Sebastion) [PM] - Empathic Link (Sebastian) [PM] - Share Saving Throws (Sebastion) [PM][/font][/size] [size=2][font=Courier New, monospace]- [i]Command[/i] creatures of its kind [PM] [/font][font=Courier New][b]Saves:[/b] Fortitude . +17 [+12 base, +2 HC, +3 PM]; additional +4 vs. poison [HC] Reflex .... +10 [+7 base, +1 HC, +2 PM] Will ...... +12 [+8 base, +2 HC, +2 PM] [b]Melee Atk:[/b] +19/+19 (1d6+9, x2, Hoof); +14 (1d4+4, x2, Bite) [b]Skills:[/b] [(8*3)*8 + (8-2)*4 +(8-1)*2 = 40+24+14 = 78sp.] Listen ........... +21 [17 ranks, +4 Wis] ..........

[/size][/font][u][b]Background[/b][/u] Aerofax is Sebastian's only trusted friend on his hunt for the fallen Brothers of the Order of the Olive. Aerofax has no knowledge of her ancestry. Her earliest memory is being trained to take part in the Blood Wars as a great celestial warrior's mount. In her first battle, however, she and her mortally wounded rider were banished to the material plane. Wandering for years in the wild, she searched for a new master who would lead her into battle for good. It was some time befroe she finally happened upon Sebastian Andovar. Sebastian had been without a proper paladin's mount for several years. It was not long before Sebastian adopted Aerofax as his mount. Aerofax is a large white mare with white feathery wings. As a dire animal, she is covered with thick, chitinous plates. These are silvery metallic in appearance, making Aerofax appear as if she were wearing plate barding. [u][b]Personality[/b][/u] Aerofax is the exact opposite of Sebastian in every way but alignment. Where Sebastian is dark and brooding, Aerofax is cheery and mirthful. While Sebastian has given up all hope for anything but a hopeless and futile yet glorious death, Aerofax believes that Sebastian can and will succeed in his quest. She takes every opportunity to buoy Sebastian's spirits in simple ways. Though Aerofax sympathizes with Sebastian's view that pacifism is weakness, she is extremely perturbed by Sebastian's bloodthirstiness, especially with respect to his fallen Brethren. When Sebastian acts from vengeance, Aerofax becomes physically upset, to the point of bucking and whinnying to make her displeasure known. In combat, however, Aerofax is an unrelenting combatant and ally of Sebastian, and reserves her (albeit immense) compassion for when the fight is over. [/QUOTE]
