[quote=@Crimson Raven] [@JohnSolaris] Ah, well that was the reason for my last question. I was thinking my character would have helped the Sorcerer-King complete the ritual for personal reasons, and helped him rule as second-in-command, however as war went on for some reason he turned and gave the enemy invaluable information. Then in the final battle he stuck down and killed the Sorcerer-King, ending magic and his own life. But the magic kept his soul alive and he rebuilt his body. He would not be as powerful as yours, since he didn't actually fuse with the Dweomerheart (spelled?) But he was originally a very powerful mage. I will also make his personality completely different so that the characters are not similar. This is just the rough idea, I'll flesh it out more if you accept it. Its not that far-fetched, really. [/quote] Sorry, but this conflicts with the sorcerer-king's backstory in a few ways. 1. The sorcerer-king didn't rely on anyone's help when he performed the ritual, nor did he have any collaborators of any sort. 2. The sorcerer-king did not have a second-in-command. Solitude is one of his main themes; he was a lone tyrant standing far above any and all of his subjects. There's no way he would've had anything as close as a second-in-command. 3. If the sorcerer-king suspected anyone of treachery, he would've used mind reading to learn the suspect's true intentions. And he had the power level of a god when he was merged with the Dweomerheart, so practically no one would've been able to withstand his telepathic assault or hide anything from him. He also ruled through fear, so he would've brutally and publicly executed any suspected traitors. It's highly unlikely for any of his subordinates to give information to the enemy and live to tell the tale. 4. If you've read my character's backstory, you should have seen that it wasn't any rebel mage who killed the sorcerer-king, but an eldritch abomination summoned by the rebels as their last resort. The rebels themselves simply weren't powerful enough to kill the sorcerer-king when he still had his godlike level of power. So if you want to play as a survivor from the previous age of magic, you'd have to be either a rebel or one of the people oppressed by the sorcerer-king, not a secretly traitorous second-in-command. And you still can't have Tech powers in addition to magic.
