Not everyone agreed with them of course, and the salaries the unit commanded were high even though none of its members ever seemed to have two gold to rub together. Nevertheless, even the rumour that the Coming Storm had been recruited to this side or that of a given conflict was enough to sway popular opinion in favour of those who recruited them. They looked good in their uniforms, and their reputation for aerial commando missions had been turned into many narratives, sung in taverns or told around campfires, for decades.The Coming Storm held no national loyalties; their obligations surpassed the rules of kings or of councils, and they turned down many more tickets than they accepted. And they always won.That was twelve years ago, when they finally entered a conflict from which not a soldier returned. Well, that's not quite true. Individuals emerged in the coming years. Some had no memories of where they had been, or perhaps they had just decided to keep the secrets to themselves. The Colonel was one of these. He had been a medic, a junior officer serving with the brigade. His present rank, for those curious enough to pursue the matter, was a field commission, given him as their numbers dwindled. But he wears his insignia proudly, even if he doesn't want to answer your questions just now.He has a name, and yes, he's the medic you've read about who would run across battle lines in the pre-dawn light to steal a kiss from his One True Love, and he wears her ring around his neck to this day, but that's not a story he shares freely. To you, he's the Colonel. It's a good enough name for the greengrocer and for his tavernkeeper. He incurs no debts, and is always polite, if perhaps a bit gruff.There are others who wear the uniform of the Coming Storm, and sometimes they meet, as the Colonel did with Captain Moranne on the Bridge of Bones outside Perniece. They saw each other as they approached, both still in the uniform of a sompany that no longer existed. They stopped at a respectable distance. Some might remember Morainne as a bright-eyed Sergeant, back in the days when she still would sing and smile. In the dry air the lightning in the Colonel's palms sparked, so his hair stood on end. If you were watching from below, you'd notice that neither had a weapon on them, though the captain had an empty scabbard. She saluted him, the captain did. And he returned the salute, but said nothing as the two passed each other, each holding their secrets of a memory shared, that they wished they could shed. The bridge's sighing whispers echoed the tok-tok-tok of their footfalls as the two passed each other and they continued into the mist.[/spoiler][spoiler=Equipment]Rod of the Pact Keeper +1 (to DC and attack rolls; magic action to regain one pact slot/long)breastplate +1Priest PackMilitary insigniaA scroll with 108 names written carefully on it.Holy Symbol (10gp) – worn50' silk rope (10gp)2x Clothes, fine (15gp) -- spare uniformBedroll (1gp)crowbar (2gp)500gp holy reliquary (for summon celestial)1000gp focus (for scrying)Incense to cast Find familiar (x3)pouch with 46 gp[/spoiler]OOC 661: The Colonel is given [spoiler="Necklace of a giantess"]it counts as a Holy Symbol (Amulet) to Ogremoch, Prince of Elemental Evil Earth.magic item that gives you Mold Earth  (Xanathar's Guide) Cantrip at-will, and you always have the NEW PHB Summon Elemental (Earth option only) prepared, and can cast it without a Spell Slot (at L4) once per Long Rest.
