Pathfinder

The Supernatural World

Here is a good overview of the whole deal.

The Supernatural World

A little of both, really. Leviathan's can get all body horrory but that's a specific skill you gotta invest points into. All of them can turn into big monsters though, it's just a matter of power and how much of yourself you're willing to let go for it.

Unfortunately that can't work, or at least for very long. The Wake forces humans to fear and worship a Leviathan in equal measures, and while it isn't as strong with other supernatural beings as humans it'll still mess with them on a level that cannot be ignored. I was planning on making a separate pirate crew that are occasional allies of the Devils, I'll explain in more detail in the CS.

Lots of stuff I gotta put down for the spawn of ancient, primordial horrors.

So there's a lot of fluff and mechanics that I'm going to have to stuff into this CS for any of the Leviathan stuff to make sense, just as a heads up.

Shards of Magic

@Too Old 4 This
Here is a WIP, I just need to hammer out the last couple of details of his history and then write up a zeroth post. Lemme know if anything won't fit with your story.

---

Coz // WIP

Name:
Coz

Home fracture:
Averyll

Home shard:
The Kais, a large shard dominated by rocky grasslands and fields of flowers. The earth is peppered with cave systems that both Coz and the native Wikani call home. Several sizable herds of cows live amongst The Kais, large, wooly things highly valued for their furs and meat.

Human guise:
Even in human form there is something decidedly off about Coz. His teeth are a little too predatory, his nails a little too sharp, and his skin is covered in rashes with the texture of rough scales. Coz, of course, doesn't particularly care himself as he is content to stay to himself. Yet, dispite his disfigerments, Coz is strong of body with thick limbs and a solid trunk. He towers over the native Wikani, being just over eight feet in size

True form:
A twisted mass of scale and horn, Coz's true form has been corrupted by his brief brush with an Aether cloud in his youth.

History:

Knack:
Tough As Nails, if Coz knows anything, it's how to survive. He may never thrive, but it'll take more than bad weather and a gut wound to keep something like Coz down.

Flaw:
Brute, relying on strength and instinct to rule him, Coz is consequently not the most traditionally intelligent being and is quick to anger should he feel slighted.

Gift:
Monsterous Strength, even by the standards of other Dragonbloods Coz is incredibly strong, able to snap the bones of dragons between his jaws as if they were little more than twigs. Even in human form his strength is great, able to manhandle the cows that herd around his territory without much trouble.

Impediment:
Atrophied Wings, the same brush with aether that twisted his body took away his wings when he crashed into the Kais

Shards of Magic

I guess my last question before I settle is going to be how old are we supposed to be? Would we remember the pre-sundering world?

@Winterwake
Thanks, I'm going for a theme of knightly dignity mixed with berserker drug use, all wrapped up in an optimistic nihilist. Good times all around.

The name change is inconsequential, I just liked the sound of it.

What's your stance on magic potions? Stuff that enhances the body or cures diseases, I know we have mages but I don't want to jump the gun with magic strength potions if there aren't any.

Alright, then I guess the rivalry came later then. My idea so far is that this "Order of the Black Sun" was around pre-unification war under the banner of the Blackguard of Morr, an old god of Death and Dreams. They fought hard but eventually their patron kingdom decided it was better to give in to Queen Avelier rather than being slowly ground into dust, so the Blackguard was ordered to stand down and surrender. When the Queen outlawed religion there was a minor conflict with the blackguard but they eventually gave in and rebranded themselves as the Order of the Black Sun after an eclipse happened over one of their battles.

However the inner circle, "The Black Ones", still worship Morr behind closed doors.

Functionally they do what the Silver Shields do but cheaper and offer their services for pennies when guarding gravesites.

Were the Silver Shields around during Queen Avelier's unification wars?
