Leif's 'The Hall of the Rainbow Mage' [A] (D&D 3.5 OOC)

OK, Renau1g/Theroc, some thoughts re: our background

I'm thinking that while on a mission for Thay, my character Whin ran across the strange drow and the two of them ended up working together to fight off a drow scouting party. They travelled together for a time, Whin Realizing as Nilah had years before that there was more to life than evil ways of his people.

Whin continued doing missions for the Thayans (Because he did not want to anger them before he had an escape plan), but rather than just murdering those of his 'targets' that were good people, he and Nilah found ways to convince the more innocent of his 'victims' that they needed to flee before the Thayans sent someone else, even going so far as to help hide some of them. During one of these forays, the two encountered a red knight who had come to protect the town from the 'Impending Thayan Assault'..

Works for me, I just need to work out his past up until then.

Well, slapped down the remaining things little bits.

Crunchwise I'm pretty much done.

If anyone has any advice on what I have, things that may be more effective, feel free to let me know.
 




Yes, indeed.

On different note, none of us can currently subscribe to new threads here at ENWorld until they get some more problems straightened out. So let's put this new game on hold until such time, because it would really be difficult to manage if none of the player's could subscribe to the IC thread.

How do I get Enworld to stop sending me emails about previous posts (as in posts I read weeks ago)?

I keep getting useless emails about old messages.
 

personally i don't use the subscribe thing, I just go through the forum checking my games.


BTW here's my proposed background so far.
Specific attention requested from Theroc/Renau1g(Background connections/info), and Leif(awesome DM dude).

[sblock=Background so far]
Background :
Whin Zacharius Roe was born to human parents, Father a great General, Mother a powerful mage, both patriots. They had been specifically bred together in the hopes of producing a powerful weapon for Thay. From the moment of his birth, the burning eyes and scaled skin let the powers that be know that they had suceeded. Whin was raised not by parents, but by the Thayan army, his every want and need looked after as he was trained many hours a day. He was outfitted with a Ring of Sustenance while still young, to maximize the time he could spend training. As such, Whin does not eat or drink, neither as habit, courtesy, or for pleasure. By the time he was 17, he could best his father in martial combat, and was nearly the equal of his mother in spellcasting.

For his 20th year of life, he was secluded in a tower with smiths and mages, teaching him the art of honing his will into metal, forging his own power into a blade. Though it took him some time to get it just right, Whin eventually emerged with his 'Razor'.

Over the next years, whenever he had spare time Whin would read through the extensive library on his quest for more. He taught himself the basics of martial arts, and soon learned of secret ways to harness truley powerful abjuration spells.. He learned of other's like himself, draconic men and women, and set about learning all he could about them, attempting to fill in the holes he felt in himself. He realized that he shared much with them.. Curiosity, drive, a love of magic and power. Once he had learned what he could, he secretly destroyed the books to keep them from being used against him, and then continued with his training and work.

Soon thereafter, Whin was called to perform his duties for his country. His first assignment was to destroy a tribe of trolls holed up in an old dwarven mine that the country wanted to reopen. Next was a young dragon; then a band of adventurers trying to 'overturn the corrupt and evil government'; a coven of hags; A Baron planning to take over; etc, etc.

During one mission, after Thayan Diviners had discovered a drow scouting party and sent Whin to intercept it, he encountered a lone drow named Nilah, who seemed unafilliated with the others. The two of them co-operated to defeat the scouting party, and then travelled together for a time, Whin realizing as Nilah had years before that there was more to life than evil ways of his people.

Whin continued doing missions for the Thayans (Because he did not want to anger them before he had an escape plan), but rather than just murdering those of his 'targets' that were good people, he and Nilah found ways to convince the more innocent of his 'victims' that they needed to flee before the Thayans sent someone else, even going so far as to help hide some of them.

You have discovered a large part of the reason why ENWorld was offline these past few days: dealing with a large glut of emails crashed the system. Personally, I opted out of all emails from ENWorld very, very soon after I joined up. Look at your ENWorld control panel, and there should be a way to stop the emails there. EDIT: Sorry, man, I just tried to find this thing now, and I couldn't. If anyone out there knows how to opt out of emails from ENWorld, please help this brother out?
