[QUOTE="Inconsequenti-AL, post: 1454946, member: 6584"] Havn't finalised him yet, so if anyones got any ideas they'd be more than welcome. Not really happy with the feat assignment, Quickdraw is going to be useful for switching away the shield for spellcasting, but the other 2... My character has been having some problems recently (dire social skills) and was due a cohort - hoepfully 'Wriggles' might compensate a little! In combat we've already got a fairly balanced party - he's meant to help out where needed and mostly work from a reasonably simple support role. Wriggles is a slight but dashing figure. Standing a mighty 3'11 tall and weighing in at a robust 5 stone. He has messy blonde hair and tends to wear clothing of the finest 'ruffs and frills' style over his lightweight armour - 'GolemHide'. In combat he weilds the eldritch 'Blade of True Justice' and his shield, the 'Anvil of might'. He seems outwardly confident, a king amongst liars, an accomplished singer in the respected 'Shatner speaking' style and a fine player of the pipes (depending on his version number!). However, even these varied activities don't manage to give him the sense of fulfillment he craves... that is only possible through the hero worship of his friend Jack Pike! He wishes he could be more like this paragon of wonderfulness. He tried entering the same knightly order as Jack (the Knights of Raziel) but the shortsighted fools rejected him. With that plan failed, he is now set on following Jack around, helping him out as much as possible and composing inspiring 'Speaky Songs' about him and his other (clearly inferior) companions. Blah.
