Klavar Zadaz d’n Alathyr – Knight of Clan Zadaz

TimHall — Sat, 16 Jul 2011 15:20:00 +0000

Another NPC – this guy’s been a recurring minor villain who’s cropped up several times in-game. He’s a good stock character when you want a stereotypical kandar knight.

Appearance: Young kandar man with a face twisted into a permanent sneer, with a prominent scar on one cheek.
Context: Knight, Clan Zadaz, Filgeth
Goal: Gets a kick out of pushing people around

Argeyn Tyr – Journeyman Wizard

TimHall — Sat, 16 Jul 2011 11:31:33 +0000

This is a sample NPC I created on-the-fly for use in the ongoing play-by-post game in Dreamlyrics.com.Â I’d already established the character in an earlier scene – since he’s going to play a bigger role in the current scene, I thought I’d stat him up. He’s pure stat-block; there’s no back-story bar the overheard conversation in a previous thread.

With 20 skill levels arranged in a classic FATE pyramid, six aspects and three stunts, he’s below the power level of the PCs in the game.

Name: Argeyr Tyr
Context: Middle-ranking wizard, The Academy of the Mind, Filgeth
Appearance:Â A rotund middle-aged kandar man
Goal: Preserve the status quo

Aspects
Conservative mid-ranking wizard [High Concept, Rank]
Minor scion of Clan Tyr [Rank]
Cautious Mind-Bender [Psionics]
Kaasranth Sar are a bunch of hot-headed idiots
Ferals will be the death of us
Who Ate All The Pies
