[QUOTE="CydKnight, post: 7570864, member: 6873462"] We currently have a human hexblade warlock in our campaign. He was going to be executed in Hillsfar for smuggling and was brought to the Arena where he was sentenced to fight the current champion. Facing almost certain death in the arena and having only 3 days to prepare, a "shadowy cloaked" figure came to him an had him swear allegiance to a Dancing Sword touched by Eilistraee in exchange for aid in his death battle. Another anonymous deal was also struck the day before where the condemned human could choose a "willing" partner from the pool of imprisoned Arena fighters but would not be made aware of this until entering the arena just before the match began. Those who run the arena did not believe there was any way that any prisoner would risk certain death at the hands of the invincible champion. However, merely hours before the death match, a 7'6", 335lb half orc barbarian with an IQ of 6 and a good heart to match his size just couldn't sit idly by and watch this puny human get pummeled by a Goliath who appeared to be at least twice his size. He gladly joined the fight and the two were able to defeat the champion thereby securing their freedom so long as they agreed never to set foot in Hillsfar ever again. Did this particular Barbarian arrive in a nick of time by coincidence? If not, the who arranged it? No one is sure but the Warlock has been gaining powers as he levels that certainly appear to be tied to the Moon (so far) and has had a few visits in his dreams by a tall "dark dancer" with ankle length silver hair and whose features otherwise appear elvish, dancing in the silvery moonlight.
