Lurking Krog

Curse of the Azure Bonds

Placeholder for my work in progress.

Name: Simon

Race: Shifter, werewolf heritage

Class: Ranger, Gloom stalker

Alignment: Chaotic Good

Personality Traits: I’ve lost too many friends, and I’m slow to make new ones

I have a crude sense of humor.

Ideals: When people follow orders blindly, they embrace a kind of tyranny.

I won't take a job if I feel the employer is not being honest.

Bond: I would still lay down my life for the people I served with.

My honor is my life. If I take a job, I will complete it.

Flaw: I have little respect for anyone who is not a proven warrior.

I made a terrible mistake in battle that cost many lives, and I would do anything to keep that mistake secret.

Appearance:

Basic image

Simon stand at roughly 5 foot 5.

The scaled mail he has shows signs of wear and improvised repairs. He is meticulous over keeping it clean and well oiled to prevent rust.

Over his left bicep, he wears a silver arm ring that bears two wolf heads at the opening of the band.

Personality: Quiet and reserved at first, Simon watches and learns what he can about people. He tries to keep people at arms length, not wanting to get to close to them, not wanting to deal with the emotions that come with people going their separate ways, or dieing. Even with the aversion of getting close to people he will often make crude jokes, often about death. To the few who he has deemed a friend or found family Simon is fiercely loyal and will do nearly anything to protect them.

Arjax

Name: Arjax Stone-Shaper Thunukalathi

Age: 21

Race: Golaith

Background: Giant Foundling

Class: Barbarian

Backstory

Arjax's early childhood was nothing especially unique. He was born to a small tribe of goliaths living in the Icerim Mountains of Rashemen. There's was a hard life, but a simple one. Being a nomadic tribe they would frequently move across the peaks, looking for fresh hunting grounds at need. It was on one such trek that Arjax's life changed entirely.

At barely ten years of age, Arjax - called Ridge-Runner at the time - had been given the job of forward scout. While trying to test the sturdiness of an old ice bridge his tribe had used in years past, Arjax had run ahead despite the warning of the other scouts. Even his lesser weight was enough to shatter the bridge which ultimately sent him tumbling down the mountainside and deep into the Underdark below.

Somehow, despite the great fall, Arjax survived. The great rockslide he had started brought the attention of Oskra, an elderly stone giant widow. She, along with her youngest child, had found him buried amongst the stone. Naming him 'Stone-Shaper' for the way his entrance had permanently carved a new opening into the Underdark, they took Arjax in and raised him as one of their own.

As a devout servant of Hiatea, Oskra served as her people's priestess of steadings. Responsible for the main farm that fed her clan, she had a deep connection with nature that Arjax quickly latched onto. Eventually learning to become a priest of Hiatea, he forged his connection with the animals and woods Oskra watched over to feed their people. The day he attained his bear totem, he earned the title of Protector Priest.

With the passage of years, Arjax service as Protector led him to frequently interact with the hostile tribes of Rashemen. Over time, he developed a fierce reputation, and rumors of the Tiny Giant spread. What made him stand out most were the rumors that he could not be killed. Seemingly fierce blows would roll off him, his skin seeming as hard as the stone it appeared to be made of. Eventually, this led to a particular individual seeking him out, and promising to never hunt the Underdark of Rashemen again if Arjax managed to survive a particularly deadly game.

Appearance

@Necroes

A quick look and I can see you are still missing any proficiencies that your character has. Outside of that it looks good.

I will look over it again when I get off work.

Curse of the Azure Bonds

Looks good so far @Guardian Angel Haruki.

I have to admit I’m not entirely certain how dice rolls work on this site. R I’ve created a dice campaign here for rolls, but not sure if everyone else can see it. If there’s another way of doing rolls then let me know.

@Valen

This is typically the best way as you can also verify our rolls. We can see them and you can see any rolls we make in our own dice campaign.

Curse of the Azure Bonds: Interest Check (D&D 2014)

I may be interested in this. My only concern is my sporadic attention to getting posts written up and being able to keep the quality of the posts up as well.

You are referring to Mordenkainen's Monsters of the Multiverse correct?

Potential D&D idea

@Necroes I am currently still looking. Feel free to work up a character sheet and let me know if you have any questions.

The Wild Beyond Witchlight

I only just got Baldur's Gate 3 and I'm only 25-30 hours in. Taming of the owlbear began before that for me lol.

The Wild Beyond Witchlight

Aurora

Aurora continued to quietly clean her gear while Voth made his request of Nibs. It sounded sensible enough to have means to make food when supplies are lacking. Once most of the grime was cleaned from her gear, she packed up what she had gotten out. "I apologize for causing you additional distress Nibs. If there is something I can do for you, I will do what I can to help. In the mean time, I am going to go check on Juniper."

Aurora carefully approaches the resting owlbear, sitting down next to the beast and looking toward the cave. Without looking at the owlbear, Aurora started to talk to it in elvish. "God's this has been a tiring adventure. It's been two days I think and I don't know that this is what I thought it was going to be. I cannot leave though you know... my sister is stuck here somewhere, and my family's signet ring I lost all those years ago. I'm also not even sure I'll find them at this rate. Already I've watched one person get killed, I've been knocked unconscious and robbed, and a creature that looked like a hat almost killed me. I was sure if you were going to try to kill me either, I just didn't want you to be trapped and stuck to that chariot. At the very least I was able to free you, that alone I think was worth the risk." She knew Juniper wouldn't reply it was nice however to vent a bit to someone, something really, that was impartial even if it wasn't really understanding what she was saying, or respond to any of it.

Potential D&D idea

Alright some positions have opened up for this. For those interested please let me know here or through PMs and don't be afraid to ask any questions in regards to the rp.

Taking the likes as an agreement, I will open the game back up and make appropriate postings in the interest check.
