Invocations: Eldrich Blast + See the Unseen, Spider Walk, Entropic Warding. Feats :Subtle Sigil, Bright Sigils, Jack of All Trades, Quick Draw, Combat Expertise, Improved Feint, Spell Rehersal Flaws:Slow to Anger - Takes a full-round action to enter Rage. Weary Warrior - You have seen too much senseless violence in your life, and combat only disheartens you further. Effect: You suffer a -4 penalty on initiative checks and after any combat you are fatigued for 1d6 hours. (This fatigue is a self-produced mind-effect that cannot be remedied by use of magic or items.)(does not apply against things you'd want to fight, such as a horde of orcs attacking a town) My PC has a brother, who is a Cleric/Warmage/Fiendblooded, whom he is trying to convert to good. He is also a PC. So far I've decided I used to be like him, in regards to enjoy killing for fun, and then I saw something that convinced me it's wrong (maybe a Paladin die to protect a stranger from us, or something of the sort?). We start at level 6, soon to be 7. My Chameleon will be a Cleric/Druid most of the time, mostly because I don't have a spellbook yet. I have the "UurKrau" Illumian Word, which gives me +2 to CL checks (Krau), +2 to dex checks and skills (Uur) and the ability to use DEX for bonus spells(UurKrau). Help me make a good bio, please.

As for your character's change, maybe it doesn't have to be some kind of experience like being saved by good guys or anything. Maybe your character has just grown disgusted with his own actions over the cumulative years. Think about why someone might want to become a chameleon -- someone who could be anyone, or no one. Maybe it's that his old identity disgusted him so much that he just wanted to run away from it all and become someone else, reinventing himself as a decent person, because he felt that the "old" self was damned beyond redemption, so he felt that only by creating a "new" self, as a chameleon, could he be something different. Yet this is a personal tale: why do you care about your brother? It could be that you and your brother cooperated in the past in doing evil stuff, and you feel as though he is tying you to the past. As a chameleon creating a new identity for himself, masquerading as a druid, you feel like you must sever all connections to your past identity as a thuggish warlock. Your brother is a connection to your dark past, and you feel that you must change him if you are to move forward in your new, good identity yourself. That's my idea, at least. Make of it what you will.

I beleive I won't agree with the whole Good vs. Evil stereotype, though. My brother be what he may, and my agreeing with him or not, he's my brother, and I love him as such. I'll try to convince him otherwise but I'll respect his opinion and allow him to do as he pleases so long as it won't hurt him or is just plain stupid. I won't overlook killing shopkeepers for their goods, so long as I'm around. I've been CE most of my life and am just starting on the journey towards Good, it's not my place to place judgement, being who and what I am. He wouldn't do it again today, but it was his choice. He hopes to accomplish greater good then the evil he's done. He can still understand it, he just does not want to do it himself, anymore.
