[QUOTE="Cloudgatherer, post: 58918, member: 66"] [i]If you are one of my players, then stop reading....[/i] I'm going to be using "Namarra" from Magic of Faerun in my game. It's a sword that can cast silence and on one side of the blade is the word "Namarra" and the other side says "Never Sleeps." The weapon also has the ability to float on water, something I want to use. The party's cleric wants to find the "items of Surial" (an important paladin from long ago). So, this sword Namarra is going to be one of them. (The party is 10th level: Fighter, Rogue, Cleric, Bard, and a 9th level "Successor", a home brew core class) So here's what I have to work with: a lich-cleric, optional beholders, a monk recently freed from the lich cleric, and a wizard NPC who can help the party with info. Here's what I want to work in: a holy pool/body of water, an old abandoned castle, protected by a pair of riddles (I have these, one to get in to the castle, the other to obtain the sword), the lich-cleric and minions attempting to gain the weapon. I'm looking for some meaning behind the word "Namarra". Originally, I'm thinking the sword can be used to bring a powerful demon (named Namarra) into the world. The sword once served to remind the paladin of the ever present threat of evil. Or, perhaps Namarra is an angelic/celestial creature, and the lich-cleric intends to offer the blade to his evil god. Anyhow, thoughts on a back story/importance of the sword would be great. I intend to have the party fight the lich-cleric somewhere near or in the "pool room" where the sword is floating and waiting to be claimed. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
