[QUOTE="Tsillanabor, post: 3717024, member: 40432"] [B]The Cast[/B] [I]Listen! For I speak of Brock, last son of Magnus That great lord who slew other kings, enslaved their sons, Made their warriors tremble, and made them pay tribute. Who built his mighty hall at the Mount of Geatmon. By his own hand was it built, a mighty fortress. Take heed as I tell of the fall of great Magnus- The Son of Ymir Snorgat feared Magnus’ growing might, Swiftly gathered his horde together and attacked. Mighty Sons of Ymir, more powerful than ten men, Dimwitted ogres, fearsome winter wolves, foul trolls All gathered together to attack Magnus’ Hall. The great king sent messengers, as swift as Sleipnir, To the nine princes pledged to send him assistance. O treacherous ones! Your livers were weak that day! Like weak women you wailed and remained by your hearths. Your names are known and by Thor, vengeance shall be sought. On that woeful day Brock and I were too distant Like Valkyries to bloodstained battlefields we rode But arrived too late to do ought but mourn the dead. Great Geatmon was burnt, proud warriors now carrion Magnus’ riches were gone, only his axe remained. Proud Brock asserted his claim over his vassals But that cowardly lot refused to pay homage Laughed at his rightful claim, and dared threaten his life. Boldly Brock strode from that place to the Lands Below And I, Wiglaf the Skald, followed him as I should. Sullen-eyed and broad-shouldered came Brock the Mighty, Seeking his fortune, increasing his great power, Brightening his fame with every adventure.[/I] Brock Magnusson is a Barbarian/Frenzied Berserker. He is the typical large strong barbarian built for power attacking. He wields a weapon of legacy known as the Thor’s Thunder, which is a large sized great axe that he can use because at his Titan bloodline. He is driven mostly by vengeance and is willing to do nearly anything to attain it. Wiglaf is a bard/rogue/druid building towards Fochlucan Lyricist. He is Brock’s cohort and constant companion. while he is mostly geared towards diplomacy, he is also good with two short swords. [I]Like-minded heroes joined Brock in his many quests. Cruel Caeden, slayer of men, born of Aelfin blood, Silently she moves in shadow, quicker than thought Twin blades dealing death faster than Ymir’s breath. She dances through battle untouchable by men. Though she is more ancient than my father’s father She appears but a maid-but beware her cruel glance For her only true love is the shedding of blood.[/I] Caeden is an elven rogue/swordsage/dervish. She uses two scimitars to great effect. She has a rather dark past. She witnessed her father kill her mother, and responded by killing him and taking his sword. Rynn is her twin brother. Much to our surprise, she is as dangerous as Brock. She has an interesting habit of seducing men and leaving them dead. [I]Hawk-eyed and swift as Ymir’s breath is Rynn the ranger He is as light as his sibling Caeden is dark Inflicting death with a hail of killing arrows The greatest archer of our time, it has been said That he can kill a wasp in flight at eighty feet Or an entire flock of birds before they fly past A shadowy past haunts him and his twin sister While Caeden kills, Rynn dreams about dark memories[/I] Rynn is an elven Ranger/Wizard/Arcane Archer and Caeden’s twin. His weapon of choice is a composite longbow, though he also uses twin elven thinblades. While not murderous like his twin, he has almost no empathy whatsoever for ‘lesser’ (non-elven) races. He spends much of his time drunk. [I]Garusha the Fiendbinder serves a dark goddess Makara the War-Wizard, Abyssal Princess. Like her dark liege she summons the demons of Hell With unholy power binding them to service Controlling their might through the knowledge of their names Bird-demons fight for her, but do not think her weak For the mighty blood of dragons flows through her veins When she flies through the night sky the bravest tremble.[/I] Garusha is a half-dragon Cleric/Fiendbinder. She has bought off part of the half-dragon LA using the rules in Unearthed Arcana. She has bound two Vrocks to her service. Though she usually stays out of hand-to-hand combat, she has a good armor class, a Flametongue greatsword, and is the strongest member of the party. Probably the most stereotypically evil member of the group, she wishes to emulate her goddess by overthrowing Makara as Makara usurped her own predecessor. [I]Rigor Mallus strode boldly from a distant land To seek his missing kinsman he came to Kyrlund A mighty warrior with an unholy weapon He brings misfortune to all who would oppose him Striking them down with magical and martial might[/I] Rigor is a human hexblade. He is unpredictable and malicious, known primarily for using excessive force and a twisted sense of humor. His brother disappeared from their homeland while fighting a sorcerer, and Rigor wishes to find him. [I]Artesia Frereshant is a strange woman In battle she uses the power of her mind As cold as Kyrlund’s mountains she watches the world Her violet eyes harboring infinite malice Without warning she cruelly breaks the minds of men[/I] Artesia is Rigor’s cohort. She is a human Psychokineticist (Psion). Wiglaf is somewhat scared of her ability to kill with a thought, and most of the group is uncomfortable around her. [I]Now Brock has returned to the Land atop the World Noble Geatmon begins to rise from its ashes Soon the nine princes will cower in their terror Those who wronged him shall pay dearly for their mistake He shall take their heads and slaughter their household guards Their lands shall be his; their people swear him fealty The white snow shall be reddened with their noble blood[/I] [B]Next: The Adventure Begins![/B] [/QUOTE]
