Kingside_Bishop 09-28-04, 04:37 PM	I was browsing Elfwood.com for mage pictures (which is the best art site ever, go there immediatly), when I ran into this... http://elfwood.lysator.liu.se/art/w/i/wibert/necromancer.jpg.html If you check the picture out, it's a totally incredible picture of a necromancer imitating the look of death (you know, cloak, scythe, sickly hand reaching for you). I decided to make a cool character, that's a little outside of the norm. Here's what I came up with: Lawful Good Human Paladin 3 / Fighter 2 / Cleric 1 / Hunter of the Dead 10 / Shadowdancer 2 / Templar 2. Feats: 1st: Dodge, Mobility 3rd: Expertise 4th: Spring Attack (fighter) 5th: Whirlwind Attack (fighter) 6th: Weapon Focus -- Scythe 9th: Combat Reflexes 12th: Endurance, Weapon Specialization -- Scythe (Templar) 15th: Divine Vengeance 16th: Extra Turning (Hunter of the Dead) 18th: Divine Vigor Here's his bio page: -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely. But it is the power over life and death that has created the greatest monsters in this world. Not only the undead creations themselves, but the masters of those creatures – the wielders of the power of unlife. Not only the masters of these powers, but the spawn that they unintentionally create. These creatures, brought into a world of unnatural horrors and dark terror the likes of which no mortal child should ever be exposed to, are twisted beyond any recognition of their human selves – a humanity so beautiful in comparison to my own twisted form that it would bring tears to my eyes, were I still capable of summoning them forth. "The dark journey I have traveled has robbed me of that ability long ago, however. And so I weep behind my silent shadows, where no man can see, while those that mock me point their fingers, calling me “heretic.” They see me as one who does not belong in the natural order. Perhaps, they are right –I was not meant to be, not in the form I hold now. Perhaps, had things been different, I would have lived a life much like theirs. We come from the same place, the farmer and I, but somewhere along the road we were separated. "They fear me because they see me as an outsider. I, however, am the incarnate flesh of the one thing that all humanity has in common – death. "I came from death, and that is where my journey shall end. It is my ultimate purpose in this world to hunt down those that step outside this natural order, and return things to the way that they should be, the way that they always should be. I am the Heretic, the lich-hunter, he who watches the night for signs of darkness. When I have cleansed the earth of the unnatural abominations that are the undead, and all knowledge concerning their creation has vanished from this world, I will turn my powers on myself, destroying the final progeny of an extinct lore…" – an entry from the journal of the Heretic -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Their spells slide off of him. Their armies fall before him. Their spirits are broken by him. He is the Heretic. I'm so excited... I can't wait to play. Input? I know I'm kind of bragging, feel free to bash me for it.
