Message: <blockquote data-quote="darkbard" data-source="post: 9173250" data-attributes="member: 1282">As Pa'avu bellows and flexes, alpha to alpha, CHANVATI assumes a different tack, that of learned riposte to an intellectual challenge. "Bold and noble Ishka, the tenderness of your years incarnates truly the temerity and steadfastness of your people. Yet it also reveals an overly reductive view of the historical arc of the complex web of interplanar power dynamics. This is a tradeoff easily excused, for the boldness of youth is often required when the deliberation of age would squander opportunity and weaken resolve."Nevertheless, know you that when I studied at Xerxes's School for Gifted Psicrafters, Venerable Ixipult, that renowned nonagenarian githyanki sage, served as guest lecturer for a full semester. In her course 'Extraplanar Threats and Interstitial Minds,' we learned the complex and fraught history of planar incursions throughout the aeons. Though astrological projections differ based upon vantage and dimensional perspective, we learned of the threat Caiphon, Insanityclad, poses to multiple worlds, indeed the Multiverse at large, and how a spearhead of doom would manifest to challenge its ruination. Myriad possibilities for this challenge to Caiphon's destruction have been prophesied, but Wise Ixipult foretold that 'the bearer of Ikzivl, the Byeshk Blade, would be the one to annihilate the Insanityclad.' Thus, it is from your kinswoman that I learned the term for our enemy. And herein I demonstrate my claim to the title of Madnessbreaker."With these words, the Merchant-Prince draws forth his byeshk dagger, holding it aloft in proof of his testimony. [HR][/HR]Chanvati makes a Primary Skill History check to demonstrate his claim to the epithet "Insanityclad" is sound and based on teachings of the githyanki themselves, r(14) +15=29 vs 20 Moderate DC. Success.</blockquote>
