[QUOTE="Kae'Yoss, post: 1651429, member: 4134"] Well, there are several. Pharaun Craulnober, later Pharaun Veluuthra, Moon Elven Bladesinger from Cormanthor. I played him from 1 to 30 (with a short jump from 21 to 25 where the campaign skipped a couple of years). In addition to the vast amount of punishment he could inflict (despite his one-handed sword style) and evade (despite wearing only medium-turned-light mithral chain mail), he was a more than passable diplomat. Like the rest of the party, he was destined for greatness (it was epic, after all): He became the High Bladesinger of Faerûn (highest level bladesinger on the continent), was the regent of all elves in the queens absence (though he didn't actually rule since he was busy seeking the queen), freed evereska from the shadovar, was the champion of Corellon, later the chosen. Improved the relations between drow (Vhaeraunan and Eilistraeen) and other elves and made the first contacts with a long-forgotten race of psionic elves (blue elves). His career as adventurer ended when he and his companions defeated a long-ago banished elven god who tried to send all elves to his former prison Cerceri. For this accomplishment, he was made a demigod and became the patron of Bladesingers. Funny enough, in our current campaign (which plays several years after the first in the "same" Faerûn), one player (not me) plays a sun elven bladesinger who worships Pharaun. And no, the name wasn't stolen from the War of the Spider Queen novels, but rather from the FRCS: I couldn't think of a name, and the elven ones didn't sound so good, so I took a drow name (and it later was revealed that Pharaun had a drow father). Phrarun Mizzrym is actually the third Pharaun I see, as in my campaign, someone also took the name for her drow priest. The other momorable character was Antar Nimesin, the gold elf who really was Antaros Dlardrageth the fey'ri. A spy and assassin, this character meant tons of fun with his shapeshifting abilities!
