Racial and Class Abilities:
+2 Constitution, –2 Charisma.
Medium: As Medium creatures, dwarves have no special bonuses or penalties due to their size.
Dwarf base land speed is 20 feet. However, dwarves can move at this speed even when wearing medium or heavy armor or when carrying a medium or heavy load (unlike other creatures, whose speed is reduced in such situations).
Darkvision: Dwarves can see in the dark up to 60 feet. Darkvision is black and white only, but it is otherwise like normal sight, and dwarves can function just fine with no light at all.
Stonecunning: This ability grants a dwarf a +2 racial bonus on Search checks to notice unusual stonework, such as sliding walls, stonework traps, new construction (even when built to match the old), unsafe stone surfaces, shaky stone ceilings, and the like. Something that isn’t stone but that is disguised as stone also counts as unusual stonework. A dwarf who merely comes within 10 feet of unusual stonework can make a Search check as if he were actively searching, and a dwarf can use the Search skill to find stonework traps as a rogue can. A dwarf can also intuit depth, sensing his approximate depth underground as naturally as a human can sense which way is up.
Weapon Familiarity: Dwarves may treat dwarven waraxes and dwarven urgroshes as martial weapons, rather than exotic weapons.
Stability: A dwarf gains a +4 bonus on ability checks made to resist being bull rushed or tripped when standing on the ground (but not when climbing, flying, riding, or otherwise not standing firmly on the ground).
+2 racial bonus on saving throws against poison.
+2 racial bonus on saving throws against spells and spell-like effects.
+1 racial bonus on attack rolls against orcs and goblinoids.
+4 dodge bonus to Armor Class against monsters of the giant type. Any time a creature loses its Dexterity bonus (if any) to Armor Class, such as when it’s caught flat-footed, it loses its dodge bonus, too.
+2 racial bonus on Appraise checks that are related to stone or metal items.
+2 racial bonus on Craft checks that are related to stone or metal.
Automatic Languages: Common and Dwarven. Bonus Languages: Giant, Gnome, Goblin, Orc, Terran, and Undercommon.
Favored Class: Fighter. A multiclass dwarf ’s fighter class does not count when determining whether he takes an experience point penalty for multiclassing

Skills (20Psywar/6monk ):
Autohypnosis: +9 (5ranks+2wis+2synergy)
Concentration: +9 (5ranks+4con)

03-18-06, 05:05 PM Bilk had waited patiently for any sign of life coming from the next room, where a diviner was being reviewed for membership. He had been extremely lucky in finding the place, the headquarters of the East Habari Trade Company, and he was puzzling at how it seemed like at a very moment he had known where it was rather than stumbling over the phantom door that was their headquarters' entrance, just as the grey elf left. Bilk ventured to speak with him about his meeting with their officers, but he saw absolutely nothing in the elf's eyes, as if the elf was in a trance. The elf walked out solemnly, and Bilk wondered if he had been rejected from membership. It was now his turn, as the door to the next room remained patiently open. He walked in, lumbering even though dwarves were usually too stout to even be able to lumber. He sat in the cold iron chair at the close end of a long table and looked around curiously. Everything at the moment seemed to be draped in black sheets of darkness, but one could not discern whether this was magical darkness or simply cheap sheets of black fabric. Looking down the long table he saw the half-giant Virgo Arkazzan, to his left and closest to his heart sat a beautiful female grey elf, to his right sat a peculiar looking man who was whispering to Virgo.

Bilk again ventured to speak but even as his question emerged from his throat it was shoved back down, with a curt "You will remain silent until judged," response from the woman sitting next to Virgo. She was now leaning her head over to rest on one of his massive arms.

As he had waited he had heard no voices, so he was at the very least optimistic now that they would make him a member. The man to Virgo's right continued whispering, this time across the table to the woman. After another patient minute or two, a small envelope floated over to Bilk. He ripped it open:

You are in. However, we wish one small task of you. Go and acquire a guard's uniform for future duties here with us.

After reading this, Bilk left, and once he was free of the darkness within their headquarters, he forgot completely the location of it.
King Uther
03-20-06, 01:52 AM Waiting until darkness fell, Bilk found a stray dog, and spiling its blood, covered himself with streaks of it. He walked up to a city guard, with a horrified look, hoping for a concerned expression with which to surprise with death.
Sindorin
03-20-06, 04:33 AM The guard, a young man in his mid-twenties, turns around with a confused expression.
"What the?!"
King Uther
03-20-06, 07:56 PM As the guard approached, Bilk readied himself to strike. He leapt forward, jumping through the air, raising his falchion to the sky for his surprised opponent. (Attack: 10+7=17 (http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=392312) Damage: 10 (http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=392312) + 12 (http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=392314) =22) The psychic energy surged through the blade......
Sindorin
03-21-06, 09:54 AM The guard, completely unprepared to be attacked right then, falls violently and is dying.
