Message: <blockquote data-quote="Oni" data-source="post: 4939831" data-attributes="member: 380">I figured I should try my background done first, since that might have some impact on how the final group all fits together.  Sabon's a half-elf and it's entirely possible that any human or elven PC's could be half-siblings, cousins, et c. if they so desired.  It might add an interesting dynamic and a tighter bond to the group.  This can all be tweaked as necessary, but it's pretty general.  Saben should be pretty easy to motivate and include with any group as long as it generally enables him help/protect people. I'll get the basics of his stats together next and then work on fleshing that out into a decent character sheet.  [sblock=Background]Saben had searched all his youth for a place in which he truly felt that he belonged.  He had lived among the elves of the Ravenshadow Wood with his mother Lillawyn.  He had traveled through human lands with his father Gareth the trader.  He had sought the camaraderie of blood and hardship as a soldier.  And though he had found friendship and acceptance in all these places he still lacked the sense of belonging that he so desperately craved.  It was not long after his military contract had ended that Saben found himself listlessly wandering the city streets of Valen.  Without meaning to, his feet brought him before the mighty Temple of the Sun.  With a sudden compulsion he ascended the steps to the area of public worship.  At first he had felt trepidation, but as he entered into that hallowed place it seemed to melt away.  Saben had never been a religious man, but he knelt and soon he was pouring his heart out in prayer.  If there was an answer it came only in the form of an incredible sense of peace and belonging, and the realization that we all walk under the same sun.  From that point on Saben became a regular and devout attendee of the temple services.  Seeking to understand his experience he studied the teachings of Pelor with great fervor.  The devoted half-elf eventually came to the attention of the priests of the Temple of the Sun, and given his experience as a soldier he was invited to join the temple guard as one of the true faithful.  Saben spent three years training and serving in this capacity, before approaching the High Priest with a request to be released from his temple duties.  He felt compelled to go out into the world and bring the light of Pelor to those in need.  The High Priest, seeing the conviction in Saben's heart, granted the request.  Since that time Saben has had many adventures and fought alongside many valiant men and women, some of whom have become lifelong companions.  Always though he has kept Pelor's mandate in his heart, doing his best to ease the suffering of others and throwing himself into the breach to protect those who need it.  [/sblock]</blockquote>
