Appearance

Yorrick, Big Picture
Yorrick has changed little since his death. He is still a giant of a man, reaching 6'6 outside of his armor and a body chiseled from stone. His eyes are grey, like iron, and rarely show any emotion besides deep compassion or grim determination. Scars cover his body, from head to toe and of every conceivable type. Slash, stab, burn, corrosive, claw, bite, his body has seen it all and come out no worse for the ware.

Personality: Compassionate, grim, determined, selfless, and loyal to a fault. Holds a soft spot for children and contempt for the forces of darkness.

Lore

Many years ago when the Holy Church and to an extension the Heralds of Light were in their formative years a small branch of warriors splintered off from the church and formed the Crusaders, warriors completely and utterly dedicated to the eradication of darkness. From this group Yorrick was born, raised, and tempered. From early on it was clear that he was destined for greatness. By the time he was sixteen he had already matched the skill of the other Crusaders in the art of war, by seventeen he surpassed them. However it wasn't until his mentor was killed in an ambush was he allowed to ascend to the rank of Crusader and join his brothers in the purge at the age of nineteen.

His first mark was to rid the Khazan Mountains of the beastman that infested it. Many bloody battles were fought, untold foul creatures were brought low, and the stink clung to him for months to come but after three years the mountains were cleansed. Next came the Coven of Blight, the benefactors of the Beastmen. A year later their heads were claimed and a year after that the great battle of the Knight and the Crusader was fought. For a long while Yorrick stayed in the shadows as the Holy Church gained more ground and power, never doing a deed history would remember. However that changed when the Lich of Ghroul raised a great army of dead and began a quest for conquest.

For the first, and only, time in history the Heralds and the Crusaders worked together. The battle of the two armies was glorious but the Crusaders were few in number and while they were superior warriors to the walking dead many of them were overwhelmed. In a final effort, Yorrick lead the charge that routed the Leagion and spearheaded the assault on the Lich's domain. Victory was there but the Crusaders were shattered. Those that survived were allowed to join the Heralds and many took up the offer, the Crusaders were eventually absorbed into the Heralds along with their knowledge of dark beings. Yorrick refused.

The years went by, battles fought, evil slain, and peace restored. However, after a life of conflict it is hard to turn to peaceful pursuits especially if one had never known them. Itching for anything, Yorrick and a group of adventurers set out to fight a great dragon that had been terrorizing the people of the far north. Rouhl was its name.

The journey was tough but when the group confronted the dragon it was if hell itself had taken mortal form. In the end Yorrick gave his life to buy the mage time, time she used to put the beast down. In honor of his achievements, of his sacrifice, and of his friendship the mage commissioned a tomb to be made on the summit of the mountain that was the battleground of the final battle. "The Crusaders Vigil" it came to be called, his armored form carved into the the face of the mountain. Always watching those who live below.

Combat Information

Equipment

*All can be seen in the artwork*

Yorrick's Mail: High Crusader armor, earned for his many achievements. The armor has not lost any of its durability over the long years of entombment.

The Arm of Light: A mighty flail blessed by the light. The flail is filled with an eternally burning incense that repels evil spirits and the forces of the darkness while bringing comfort to those who have lost hope.

The Shining Aegis: A great shield that grows in durability with the devotion of the barer.

Techniques/Spells

Crusaders Resolve: Yorrick can ignore crippling pain and injuries so long as he keeps faith, however a blow that would outright kill him say immolation or decapitation will end him.

Holy Accusation: Words spoken in a holy language forgotten to time, mortals filled with sin will be crippled with their truth while spirits and demons are banished. Particularly strong creatures of darkness are only annoyed.

Smite: The incense within the Arm of Light catches alight, engulfing men and beast in flames when struck or obliterating demons and dark spirits.

Beyond the Wall Interest Check

Interested and friendly bump.

Defenders of Lesavvo's Tomb

I'm all for starting up the RP. @Hawlin I don't see why not, it'll be grand.

Defenders of Lesavvo's Tomb

Just in front of the treasure room on the far right of B1 since he hordes gold and it is relatively close to the entrance for his scout runs.

Defenders of Lesavvo's Tomb

Aaand done.

Defenders of Lesavvo's Tomb

Almost done, I have gone into a different direction than the original character.

Defenders of Lesavvo's Tomb

Name: Snikt

Species: Deep Goblin

Appearance

Role: Thief, assassin, and scout.

Skills:
-Sneak Thief: Incredibly sneaky, incredibly good at stealing, and terrible at lying.
-Biological Camouflage: Like an octopus, Snikt can change the color and texture of his skin to match his surroundings however the camoflague isn't perfect and a sufficiently perceptive adventurer can spot him.
-Knife to meet ya! Besides shinies, women, and Rotgut, knives are Snikt's favorite things and has become quite proficient in their use.

Personality: Loyal, excitable, and always willing go out into harms way. However he has a tendency to steal shiny things, overextend himself on assassination runs, and has a controlling hatred over adventures, humans in particular.

Background: Snikt's life hasn't been the easiest, in fact its been incredibly hard. Being a goblin he and his kind are viewed as little more than intelligent vermin with annual exterminations in the cities while any adventurer kills them for even the off chance the poor thing will have anything worth pilfering. However a deep goblin is left relatively alone do to their underground homes, that is until word of their gathering bring the "heroes" coming.

You see, Deep Goblins have this innate desire to horde anything shiny to the degree that ravens find odd. As a consequence what they usually take is gold, gems, magical items, you get the idea. Well, the Goblins don't see gold as gold or a magic sword as useful, all they see is something shiny that can be used to gain a mate. Snikt was just a child when THEY came and only remember as they stepped on eggs, stole the shinies, and killed his people. When they were done they torched the whole village, leaving Snikt alone and afraid.

After travveling through the tunnels system for who knows how long, Snikt found his way to the surface and eventually to Lesavvo's Tomb where the monsters there took him in and became his new family.

Other:
-Is in the process of gathering a large horde of gold, jewels, weapons, and anything shiny to attract a possible mate. Plus it looks pretty.

-Lives closer to the entrance of the tomb for scouting, assassinations, and taking loot.

I'm interested. I don't think I can really add anything besides having different types of traps for different monsters like it wouldn't make sense for a non magical monster to make lightning towers while smarter monsters can make traps like spinning blades and the such. Perhaps later down the line we could combine the two types of traps for some devastation.
