Title: Sial
Post by: SentinalBlade on February 12, 2009, 09:33:13 pm
Here i will divulge into the background of your partner.

He is a childhood friend, not much unlike delita, but he does not choose to have his power.

He answers to the god no one is aware of, spreading a semi-good will across the small planet.

Short Back Story
Appointed by God at birth, his mother died giving birth, his father already having died in a war. From the moment of his birth, has been alone. He sought no aide, no companionship, no love. He lived in a gentle hillside, with nothing around for several miles. It wasnt until his god appeared to him, that he even knew there were others like him. This god, had forsaken his son, for reasons i will not divulge yet, but appeared to him, to show him his remorse. Within moments, Sial instantly knew his purpose, and proper speech.

At the tender age of 11, he crusaded across Tiberum, constantly warding off any evil taint, and helping those in need. in essence, the epitome of a man in a world without a god, faith, or incredible generosity. He ran across Kael, a young practitioner of several magical art forms, who showed uncanny kindness to Sial. The two were ambushed, having disturbed a dryad form her slumber, but working together, they overcame her, and quickly became friends. Since that day they have been the best of friends, mischief and good deeds alike, they did them together. A good 5 years have passed, leaving Sial at 16 years of age and having plenty of time to fine-tone his skills.

Okie, with that out of the way, we can work on his skills.

He is a guest in every battle you fight, there is no getting rid of him...he is with you till the end. It makes sense to give him a unique skillset, so hopefully we get some ideas.

Outright, Sial is the ONLY holy based character, others might have a holy element skill or two, but Sial is absolutly the only thing that can compare to a clergyman/bishop.

I would prefer his skillset to represent his time alone, and anger towards his strange period of isolation. but there is also that divine wrath that should be implemented into such anger.

His skills will more than likely require swords.

Any interesting heal ideas not taken by painbreak/bloodmancer are welcome :)

I have absolutly nothing to start with, so lets here what you guys think.

Blade of the Savior - Long Range ignore height Damage attack

Smite - Deals insane damage to undead/dark enemies(lots of undead in this patch, so ill end up lowering its damage)

Zealot - Produces a beserk like effect on sel

Banishing Blade - 3 Range, Damage + Chance of Doom (Ignore Height)

Im trying to avoid aethiest status. Since there is no god to have 'Faith' in, i think im going to have to turn it into something like...well i have no clue...nothing cliched' like 'power' 'magic' or 'energy'

Will is good, chi is to eastern-asia, and considering this world is to small for something as big as asia.... hehe, kidding.

Im trying to eliminate irrelevant lands and taboos, despite them being so tempting to add into the game.
