[QUOTE="Argyle King, post: 6264982, member: 58416"] The choice of Tempus was pretty much because I didn't accurately remember the FR details I had recently read while sitting down to make the character. So, in hindsight, it was a mistake, but, at this point, it's an already established part of the character and has benefited me (due to speaking with other followers of Tempus in town,) so changing it mid-game seems bad form. For Encounters, it's good enough to get by; I don't expect to delve as deeply into rpg and character as I would in a home campaign where I have more time and less of a set direction. If I ever end up playing the character again, I'll likely sit down and sketch things out better. For now, just as quick patch to try to make it make sense, I'll say that he temporarily joined Tempus because he stumbled upon some clergy members of Tempus upon returning from the grave. They believed that a walking suit of armor (with a flail) was some kind of sign from the god they prayed to (especially since Saracen then helped them defeat some enemies.) Still mentally groggy due to the shock of being stuck between life and death, Saracen didn't resist when the priests took it upon themselves to emblazon the symbol of Tempus on his chest; not noticing the small symbol of Helm (which was faded with time and from being buried) on the back of one of the gauntlets. Confused himself, having conflicting holy symbols on his newly formed body was of little concern in light of everything else he was faced with. [/QUOTE]
