CHARACTER INFO
Character: Ketheric Thorm Canon: Baldur's Gate 3: After his untimely demise at the hands of Tav and the rest of their party. Armada: Corsair
About: Ketheric Thorm; A former worshiper of Selûne like his forefathers before him for countless generations lived out his days in his ancestral home of Moonrise Towers. Fighting in many great wars in servitude to the Gods he was once a practical man who loved his family more than anything. His beloved wife Melodia was taken from him at a young age causing him immense grief but it was not until the untimely demise of his daughter who challenged him the man began his fall into a darker path. Basking in sorrow and misery the general turned to Lady of Loss herself; The Goddess Shar who took him under her wing and became her “Chosen”. He and his devoted followers began an all out assault on the lands surrounding Moonrise Towers only finally being stopped by an alliance of Harper's and druids of the Emerald Grove. Years after his own departure from the world of the living the God of Bones, Myrkul came to him with a tempting promise; To restore him to the lands of Toril along with his beloved daughter whom he cherished more than anything.
Ketheric was known to be an honorable man in his past life before his servitude to Myrkul, becoming a mere shell of his former self now wallowing in despair and anguish. Wholly devoted to achieving that which he’d lost and desired more than anything, the return of his darling wife and daughter at his side. This obsessive behavior caused him to betray his old ways enacting vile atrocities to any and all who would dare oppose him.
The rest of his application can be found here for additional information!
Abilities: Before his demise at the hands of the rogue 'True Soul' and their band of miscreants Ketheric Thorm had been blessed with invulnerability magics thanks in part to the celestial being Dame Aylin, his daughter's beloved counterpart, draining her own life force with necromantic magic to sustain himself from any physical harm. However; Since I am taking him from post death he will no longer have such powers and be subject to mortality like any other normal human or half-elf in his case though still retaining his abilities as a Paladin with necromantic ties to the Lord of Bones, Myrkul. Having broken his oath time and again the General is what they call an 'Oathbreaker' with ties to magics of necromancy and darkness in servitude to an evil being.
As for his inventory the items on his person would only be his intricately designed plate armor handcrafted by Myrkul himself aptly named "The Reaper's Embrace" which is adorned with depictions of the God of Bones. It holds the ability to use 'Howl of the Dead' which inflicts numbness to any creature within a 10ft radius. (Numbed enemies affect the entity's movement speed by half, the spellcaster will also have Advantage on Attack Rolls against the affected entity.) As well as 'Reaper's Rigidity' (When activated, you can't be moved against your will by any spell or action, but have Disadvantage on Dexterity Saving Throws.)
PLANS
General: Eventually I would like to have him pursue his own ship and become the 'General' once more, even having thought of an appropriate name for his supposed vessel known as "The Forsaken", taking any and all in who have been abandoned, discarded or generally harbor ill will against those who wished to hinder their own hopes and dreams either back in their home world or here in Escordvi. A ship of wayward souls with newfound aspirations of staking their claim in this land with the former Chosen of Myrkul as their prestigious leader.
On top of this the former Chosen of Myrkul still has aspirations of being reunited with his long lost wife and beloved daughter Isobel if it were possible here in Escordvi. Looking for ancient magics with potentially dangerous or even lethal consequences the man is still hellbent on returning his precious family to his side.
Event & MANTA Board:Here is a link to his new TL for the event with a few MANTA board prompts in there as well! On top of the prompts I've provided I would LOVE for Ketheric to pursue the Corsair MANTA Board quest (THE PRICE OF FREEDOM) of retrieving this lady and her fabrics for the rich Corsair and be handsomely rewarded for his efforts. For he doesn't have the greatest moral compass and such a boon would go nicely towards acquiring a ship and creating a beginning of a little nest egg. Either with an allied Corsair at his side OR being stopped at the hands of an enemy Paladin who is protecting the lady in question are both viable options that would be so much fun!
CR Dreams: GIVE ME ALL THE CR! Negative CR is probably a given with most of the goody two shoes Paladin's who hope to stop his plans but you never know what might happen when you're trapped in a lava cavern with limited resources or bearing down ice giants and need potential allies at your side, righttttt?
