He's going to be an antagonist to my PC, but not one she should kill. I want this guy to be memorable, sound in terms of game mechanics, and to force my player to make a difficult moral choice. Should she help him commit suicide or should she try to save the champion of her own goddess's worst foe?The Background:During The Winnowing, the other demigods chose heroes and villains that represented the best of their domain. These mighty mortals are to increase attract believers to their faith and thus demonstrate the demigod’s worth to the skeptical pantheon.All but Loki, that is. The demi-god of bad luck chose one utterly normal human. He serves as an object lesson on the power of ill fortune to ruin any man’s life. This man’s long and miserable life demonstrates why Loki is to be appeased, propitiated.Ayebar was that man.Ayebar has lost more jobs than he can count. He’s inadvertently ruined marriages, bankrupted employers, and gotten friends fired. He’s been hungry, beaten, mocked, and spat upon. He’s been shipwrecked and enslaved by pirates. He’s caused several industrial accidents.Ayebar never means to harm anyone or cause chaos. These things just happen. Because Loki makes sure of it.Loki sees to it that Ayebar survives. It wouldn’t do for him to die before another town learned that it never pays to forget Loki.Now, which of these two builds is the better for this concept?</blockquote>
