Message: <blockquote data-quote="Ao the Overkitty" data-source="post: 1087216" data-attributes="member: 9758">The second of my Bards was a human commoner name Seth Lochmar.His family ran the local cemetary in his home town in a Byzantine type civilization.  He worked as both a grave digger and a singer of funeral dirges and player of bagpipes.  He was a realistic, and mostly pessimistic man.His family was repeatedly troubled by the debts of his banished noble gambling grandfather.  One day, these problems arrived in the form of a necromancer who animated the contents of the graveyard.  Seth died protecting the local priest from a skeleton.  After being raised, he received a letter from a member of the noble part of his family, saying that the banishment had been reversed and the family was allowed back on the lands.Having a desire to learn more about this branch of his family, and to see if they were all as useless as his grandfather, he set off for the far away city of Arleans (Scottish Highlands area).Shortly after arriving, he found the house deserted and only a bunch of new arrivials to help.  He also quickly found himself in charge of family, acting as laird.  Worst of all, on his journey, his only pair of pants was destroyed by a Weretoad, forcing him to wear those drafty kilts all these silly people were wearing.While clearing the lands and making them habitable, he inspired his family members with funeral dirges, most often, but not always, for the enemy.After a while, he became a paladin, following in the footsteps of the old lairds.He continues to lead this family in regaining their prestige and titles and has become the official laird when the last laird returned from his campaign in the 9 Hells to gain more supplies and renounced his claim to the title.Right now, after dealing with too many previous family members turned meenlock, he has become VERY paranoid (having lost twelve points of Wisdom) and his cohort, a lantern archon cleric, is unconscious.Now that I've seen the Mourner Bard Prestige Class, if he hadn't gone paladin, it would have been perfect for him.</blockquote>
