Name: Lorelai
Physical Form:
Abilities:
Magical Expulsion: Lorelai possesses immense reserves of magical energy, to the point she could have made an excellent sorcerer if she had actually known any spells or had an interest in such. Rather, she has formed an instinctual grasp on it and releases it in an explosive, but inefficient, burst of energy to strengthen her blows or repel ones made upon her. Frequent use of this on her body has lead to her muscles adapting and bulking up considerably from the exertion. Can also be used to launch projectiles such as arrows or stones from her hands at terminal velocity. Note, objects boosted from the Magical Expulsion tend to break quickly, and Lorelai has yet to find a weapon that lasts more than a handful of bursts. Her own body and that or Durgan, however, have long since past those limitations.
Fabricated Knighthood: Despite her lack of formal training, Lorelai has become proficient in fighting with swords, spears, and even battle standards through her own experience. Can operate just as well in heavy armor as without, and excels in mounted combat. Carries a common sword in one hand while wielding a spear in the other.
Natural Charisma: While not the sort to command armies, Lorelai has a knack for inspiring others to action even in the face of overwhelming odds. Leading from the front, she charges into the maws of the enemy knowing that hell will be following at her back.
Durgan, Lord of Beasts: Steadfast mount, loyal companion, and protective guardian of Lorelai, Durgan is one of the few behemoth's left alive in the face of the human inquisition upon monsters. Unparalleled in pure strength by other beasts that walk the land. His roar brings terror to the hearts of man and inspires all that thrive in the dark to rise in rebellion of the 'Peace' wrought by mankind. Keeps a quiver of replacement swords and spears on his side for when Lorelai eventually shatters her own.
Personality: A human with distorted perception of the world, viewing herself as a monster opposed to mankind. Takes to acting what she perceives a knight of monsters would act, righteous and stalwart in her personal crusade upon mankind. This leaves her rather blinded to the darker nature of monsters, who she sees as capable of doing no wrong for they are the standard of moral rightness. Among those she find 'innocent' or 'good', she is warm and conciliatory, always trying to be of help to her 'fellow kind'.
Wants / Needs: To place herself in the service of the most righteous force in the land and drive out the humans oppressing all things dark. If she is needed, she is content. Though she would like to have a spear or sword that can withstand her magical expulsion.
Relationships: Will fill in as she meets people.
Backstory: An outcast of human society with a perspective distorted by delusions of possessing an inhuman nature, Lorelai was a disturbed being. Unwelcome for her differences, she lived in the dark and subsisted off the dregs of man's opulence. Despite her bitterness with man in general, she aspired to be better than what she was. Like Don Quixote, she held dreams of chivalry and honor as a means to rationalize her place in the world, striking out at the true monsters.
An opportunity arose to do just that when she came upon Durgan, wounded and cornered by a hunting party that sought to slay the proud beast. Her intervention, pitiful as it was at the time without a blade or scrap of armor save for peasant rags, was sufficient to give Durgan the opportunity to wipe out the remnants of the hunting party. It was the beginning of a peculiar partnership.
To sum up the course of that partnership, Lorelai found she could actually battle her 'windmills' with Durgan at her side. She grew in skill and power under his protection, while his pride and renown flourished with every battle they won. Lorelai came before the downtrodden creatures of darkness in the world and was accepted, in large part due to the large behemoth and later on for her reputation as an enemy of man.
The Abyssal Knight and the Lord of Beasts have now come to Dungeon Master to put forth sword and claw to topple the world of 'Peace'.
Other: Is searching for a weapon that can withstand her Magical Expulsion.
