Optional:
Be sure to pick at least 2 things that your character strongly believes in, and would be willing to act selflessly in order to further it. Make these goals specific but universal (Ex. Everyone should have freedom of choice, risk taking is foolish, those in power are always right, etc.). I can furnish more examples, or you can get them from the Planewalker's Handbook.

[spinagon]

Spec wraps himself in his cloak all the time as he does not like leaving himself, and his belongings, open to view by other berks. He acts sort of paranoid, and maybe he is, but he sees it as being 'cautious'. After all, growing up on the streets of Sigil will do that to a cutter.

His cloak is made of simple cloth dyed pure black, with a hood covering his head. He wears a suit of black leather armor, black thigh-high leather boots, black fingerless leather gloves, and black leather pants.

He keeps his face lowered, and his eyes foreward peering in all directions.

He won't hesitate to pocket something he thinks would be useful...or just interesting to have.

When you can catch a glimpse of his features, you can see a pair of small onyx-colored horns protruding from his forehead. And his eyes are both different colors, his left pupil being red, his right, black. He doesn't smile often...if ever, but he bears a set of small fangs. A small leathery whip-like tail can sometimes be seen darting from beneath his cloak. And he bears two tattoos in the form of the symbol of the Abyss on his left arm, and the symbol of Baator on his right arm. And those with keen eyes will notice that he never casts a shadow.

Spec keeps to himself most of the time, always keeping a short distance from the group whenever possible, as he's always peery of those around him.

And if you've ever seen him when he gets angry, his skin heats up to the point where one's touch causes them 1 point of damage. Also, the more angry he is (or under great stress),the more he tends to look as though he's fighting to keep control of himself. Strangely it never seems to effect his clothing or other belongings.

Spec's Character Sheet

Strong beliefs:

1) The multiverse helps those that help themselves. Those who get to the top through blood, sweat, and tears deserve to be there. Those who complain about bad luck or unfair treatment don't deserve any better. To rely on others to get where you want in life is weak.

2) Everyone is out for themselves! Everyone is trying to get to the top in life, and you're just another rung in their ladder. Don't trust anyone because they're all just trying to use you to better their own position. It's either YOU or THEM, and who's a rung in who's ladder...?

[Arcaneye]

Canderous' real name is Cristion. He belonged to a small group of wanderers that travelled and settled around the material plane of Spiren. As he aged and grew stronger, he took over as the bodygaurd and muscle for the group. Leading and stopping many a raid lead to him taking over as head of the group. He lead using the power of his father's sword that held abilities that were unlocked to him little by little as he progressed in power.

He accidentally lead the group into Corinine Dunes where there was a cult currently summoning a portal to the Astral Plane. To both group's dismay, an Astral Dreadnaught known as Kyriashikklon expanded the interdimensional rip and killed most of both groups.

The few that survived from Cristion's group decided to hunt down the creature and take it down. Along this destined to fail chase (due to the fact that the Dreadnaught was immensely more powerful than they) Cristion lost the last of his group to Carceri and The Nine Hells in their first battle on their firsy foreign plane.

While now lost with no purpose other than to avenge his lost friends and family, he headed back to the material plane. But, while he was on this journey, he had grabbed the attention of a high level Baatezu who stole his sword.

With all of his belongings except what is left on him (on my 1st page of the Character Sheet), Cristion decided to start another life. He became Canderous and began his journey over again.

He feels very strongly for the sword lost, Paradise, as well as finding the Astral Dreadnaught, Kyriashikklon, and would do anything to get the sword back and destroy the beast.

Character History: K'zan's parents met in a githyanki prison camp in the Astral plane; why their captors had not simply killed them and how they escaped are matters that never entirely came to light. What is known is that on their return to Limbo, rumours abounded that they had, in some way, collaborated with the hated children of Gith. A week after K'zan hatched, his father disappeared. He never had a close relationship with his mother, and knows very little about his family (he also has one sister, slightly younger than him, who was training in the arts of stealth when he left Limbo). For his first 18 years his name was K'Tor; he only changed it after arriving in Sigil.

At the age of eight, K'Tor left home (in the Floating City) to study under the Anarchs of Shra'kt'lor. Although a decent student, he began to feel disillusioned with the philosophy of the powerful Anarch's guild, and fell in with a semi-underground movement that venerated the legendary Zerthimon. Increasingly feeling the constrictions of life beneath the githzerai wizard-king, he decided to leave his home plane and train to become a zerth - fighting and studying to aid his people in their struggle against tyranny, in all its forms.

A few months later, at the age of 18, he and a small band of friends passed through the gate-town of Xaos and took the first portal they found to Sigil - the big city. They didn't last three days - drunk on unfamiliar alcohol and the heady scent of adventure, they got into a fight with a group of githyanki in one of the numerous seedy bars of the hive. K'Tor, terrified by his first taste of combat, hid under a table and later fled. Returning - out of shame at his cowardice rather than any renewal of courage - he found the bodies of his friends being carted away. Alone in an unfamiliar city, he followed the only faces he knew - straight up the steps of the Mortuary.

The naive young githzerai was a gift to the Dustmen, and it took little effort to convince the rapidly disillusioned young mage that their philosophy offered him a way of coping with both his grief and shame. He also took a new name (according to an old githzerai custom) that reflected his current situation: K'Zan, He-Who-Was-Full-Of-Shame. However, his strongly held githzerai beliefs could not be ousted by this new philosophy; instead, he believes he has found a way of reconciling the contrasting views of a Dustman and zerth, seeking liberation from the tyranny of life and working against those - such as the githyanki and the illithids - who would spread false death through violence.

His faction tolerate these unorthodox views, though they feel he has a long way to go before he is really 'one of them'. For a start, his racial hatred and shame are clouding his mind and preventing the way to True Death.

For the next two years he worked as an administrator in the Mortuary, an experience that has left him with a wide understanding of the various religions of the planes - but in almost all cases, only those parts that deal with death or burial practices. He studied and practised his mage skills, and became more and more introverted; for K'Zan, the outside world is a dangerous place full of violence and untimely death. However, his faction - recognising the first signs of the Apathy closing about his mind - convinced him to go out and experience the planes, following whatever path was placed in front of him.

He does not drink alcohol (seeing it as the seed of emotion and violence), abhors tyranny (a hangover from his githzerai roots) and avoids combat when he can - though he sees the world as inherently violent, and accepts that he must defend himself and those around him.

Upon entering the Dustmen he took vows renouncing his previous life; as far as his relatives are concerned, he died in a brawl in Sigil.

Current Goals: It seems that to truly understand this mockery of existence it is necessary to see more of the multiverse than just Limbo or the sheltered atmosphere of the Mortuary. Every day he sees deaders being carted in - but how did they die? What is happening outside, in the planes? Curiousity must be purged before he can even begin to reach towards True Death, and K'zan is losing sight of everything in his current situation: he has to look outside before he can truly examine himself.

Beliefs: His friends are gone, struck down in a brawl. That seems... wrong, somehow; too sudden. It has, however, shown K'zan the harsh light of truth: the multiverse is defined by death. Life is death, existence is empty and to strive is to fail. Grief and cowardice are both weaknesses, emotions. They must be purged if K'zan is ever to progress - ever to escape the fate of his comrades and find his own, True Death.
Zerthimon is dead, beyond the Eternal Boundary. It thus seems obvious to K'zan that the philosophy of the Dustmen and the religion of the Githzerai can easily co-exist - for K'zan, Zerthimon was the prophet of death, showing the Githzerai the true path not merely away from the tyranny of Gith but also towards the aim of existence - transcendence into True Death.

(1. Emotions are weaknesses, and violence (as a product and/or producer of rage and passion) in particular is wrong.
2. Tyranny should always be opposed.)

[Piper Silverstream]

Name: Piper Silverstream
Race: High Elf
Age: 119
Gender: Female
Class: Ranger
Alignment: Chaotic Good


Piper Silverstream is a beautiful elf with long black hair flowing loosely down to her waist, and bright, vibrant green eyes with lots of warmth in them. Her lips are blood red with a ready smile on them, her skin milky white with a few freckles strewn across her cheeks and nose. She is wearing tan leather armor that fits her slender, petite body perfectly, comfortable but snug. Strapped to her back are two longswords with the sword hilts jutting up from above her right shoulder and a composite longbow strapped across her left shoulder. She is very wary of others but does not let it show. She is loyal to those who stand by her, and will fight to her death to protect and save them.

Greetings to one and all. I am Piper Silverstream, a noble elf from the town of Fayeville. My parents were never around much, as their interest lay in the running of the town, so it was my sister Vierna who raised me. Vierna was an embarassment to our family, but we adored each other.
One year a visitor came to our town, and my sister let him have passage into our keep, as he was weary from battle and poor. When my parents found out that Vierna let a human into our keep, they were furious with her and told her she was responsible for keeping an eye on him.
Brian and I began to spend alot of time with each other, and we fell in love. I confided my feelings for him to my sister, and she was the only one who knew of our secret feelings for each other, and she kept my secret. It was getting time for Brian to leave us, and he wanted me to go with him, but knowing how my parents felt about him, and how they would feel about me running away with him, I declined his offer. One night, Vierna came into my room and awakenend me, and told me to grab only what was important to me and that Brian was waiting for me outside. I told her I was afraid to go, and she told me she knew the only way I would ever be happy was to be with my love, so I went with him. The last thing I remember as we were riding away was Vierna's screams as she was punished for my behavior and running, and blamed for not keeping a better eye on Brian. I have never seen my sister or my home since then.
Brian and I were happy together, and very much in love. Everyday was a treasure to me, just to be with him. One night, as we lay sleeping under the stars, a band of thieves crept upon us, and attacked. Brian fought them off long enough for me to get away. I wanted to stay and help him fight them, but he told me to run and find help because there was so many of them. When I returned, it was to find my beloved's body stabbed to death, and the end of my happy existence. Everything we had that were of value had been taken, but nothing so valuable to me as his life. I have sworn vegenance on finding the brigands who took his life. While tracking the band, I came across some standing stones, and when I passed through them, I came to a place I have never seen before in my life, and all I want is to return to my world and find those who took him from me.

Background: Once a candidate to become a priest of her deity, Sseth, Ssertzah was sent to kill a fallen priest by the Scaled Supreme. When she found her target, he had given her the knowledge that Sseth was actually in a slumber and what most of the Scaled Ones of their kind were worshipping was the Evil god set.

Taken aback by the information, Ssertzah then went on a hunt to gain the power and allies needed to find and awaken the one true god of the Scaled Ones.

When her journey began, she was in search of where the Supreme Scaled One's original location was. Her search lead her into a trap left by some followers of Set that disguised themselves as followers of Sseth.

After being locked up without nourishment for a good 2 weeks, she was saved by a group of heroes. After being taken into the groups custody until she was back to full health, she was given a vision of a land where evil lives and it continues downwards infinitely.

As this information was released to her, she awakened to find her saviors dead with the symbol of Set near them. She then went into a rage and strayed away from her original path.

Not only did she want to save Sseth, but she was now even more hell bent on getting back at Set for all the damage he had done to her and those around.

Appearance:
Selenya looks young and could be called attractive, with her light golden hair, brown eyes and slight bronzed tan, if not for an ugly scar, which crosses left side of her face, barely missing eye. She looks very human, except for slightly-longer-then-normal ears, which mark her as a half-elf. Her custom outfit a bit strange looking sleeveless dress, with white almost transparent top, and long red and blue bottom; and a pair of sandals. On rare formal ocassions Selenya usually puts on some jewelry, which she keeps for such ocassions.

Class and Racial Abilities:
Summon Familiar (Selenya currently doesn’t have a familiar)
School Specialization (Abjuration)/Prohibited School (Illusion): Selenya gained School Specialization through Incanatrix prestige class, and thus, while she can never learn spells from Illusion school, she can still use spells from Illusion school, which she learned before she became Incanatrix.
Send Away (Extraordinary Ability): Selenya gain +2 bonus to all dispel checks and caster level checks to harm, banish, or overcome spell desistance of outsiders. This include dispel checks to dispel a summon monster spell.
See Ethereal (Supernatural Ability): Selenya can use this ability once per day, and it lasts for six rounds. This ability allows Selenya to see ethereal creatures up to 60 ft. away, although they appear gray and insubstantial (as objects on Material Plane appear to ethereal creatures). This does not give her any additional ability to attack ethereal creatures, but she can utilize spells and effects that affect ethereal creatures (such as force effects and abjurations) normally, so she could cast a magic missile spell at an ethereal creature.
Immunity to Sleep
Low-light vision
+1 to listen, search and spot
Strike Ethereal (Supernatural Ability): Selenya can alter her spells so they strike ethereal targets that she can see. Altering this way works similar to a sorcerer using metamagic feat – spells with a casting time of one action become full-round spells, and spells with a longer casting time take an extra full-round action to cast. The altered spell takes effect on the Ethereal Plane instead of the Material Plane.
+2 Saves versus Enchantment
Plane Shift (Spell-like Ability): 1/day, as 13th level Sorcerer
Analyze Portal (Spell-like Ability): 2/day, as 12th level Sorcerer
Hardy Spirit (Supernatural Ability): Selenya is immune to all death effects and energy drain attacks.

[Selenya]

Selenya
Part III

History:
Selenya is a daughter of a powerful elven enchantress from Silverymoon and a daring human adventurer and sellsword from Calimport, whose love for each other was passionate, but short-living. Selenya left home when she was twenty old, and still considered just a child by her sun elven mother. As she left home, Selenya refused to take either mother’s or father’s second name as her own, for she believed that name is something she should make for herself.
Even when she has just began her adventuring, however, Selenya displayed an impressive magical talent and skills, for her mother was teaching Selenya the art of spellcasting since Selenya’s childhood. During her magical studies, other worlds and plane shifting have always fascinated Selenya, and she dreamt to travel to the other worlds someday.
At first traveling and adventuring was very difficult for Selenya, for while her magical skills were quite good even then, she lacked life experience. However, Selenya quickly adapted, and within two years, she became an experienced adventuress. And only recently her dream to travel to the other worlds was fulfilled, however, everything turned to be very different from how Selenya imagined it would be.
Selenya talks little about what happened during her planar travels. She makes clear only one thing: her former friends betrayed her, and if she wouldn’t be brought to Hub of the Multiverse by mysterious elf, who called himself Morph, in right time, she would most likely die.
Morph required Slenya’s assiastance, in his war against mysterious Shadow, which seemed to be taking planes under its control. Selenya galdly agreed, but soon, this mission fall into ruins, just as Selenya’s previous mission did. Selenya got separated from her freinds, and was forced to flee back to the Prime Material Plane, in order to defeat the Shadow Coati, that pursued her.
Once on the Prime Material Plane, Selenya quite easily dismissed the Shadow Coati, forcing the creature back to the plane it came from. Afterwards, Selenya allowed herself to relax a little bit at the Mage Fair she found herself at. In addition to relaxing from her past adventures, Selenya used the time she spent at Mage Fair to earn some money, learn a several new spells, and even research a new spell of her own.
Soon, however, Selenya was fully rested and ready for the new adventures, for it seems that even all the past failures were unable to crush Selenya's adventurous spirit.
Soon after her return to the Planes, Selenya has appeared to be forced to work for a mercenary force known as the Abyssal League; although in reality, Selenya’s desire to take part in some “adventures” around the Planes and her unwillingness to abandon those who recently helped her – K’Zan and Spec, were the only reasons why Selenya simply didn’t flee from the Abyssal League, something she is quite confident she can do at any time.

Current goals and beliefs:
Currently, Selenya made it her goal to learn as much as possible about the planes, for while her magic power is impressive, her knowledge about the planes is somewhat lacking, based mostly on what she read in the books rather then on personal experience. Selenya currently doesn’t seem to have any strong beliefs that she strives to uphold, but she is often willing to offer her help when it is needed, even for a little payment or no payment at all. Once Selenya used to strive to right wrongs whenever she saw them, but the time she spent upon the Planes taught her that such concepts as “good” are “evil” aren’t absolute, as she saw one too many times how “good” for some is “evil” to others.

Martin is a tallish half-elf with long blonde hair typically bound in a pony tail. His manner of dress is strange: fine clothes but in garish colors, and strange fabrics, with no piece of it matching any other, and a fine cloak stitched motley-style from scraps of about a hundred different colors and types of expensive fabric.

He wears a rapier on his left hip, the basket hilt cast in the shape of a stylized skull. The long dagger on his right hip sports a crossguard in the shape of a grinning jester's head. On his arms he wears a leather manicae studded with scraps of chainmail and colored metal plates. His shirt is leather, covered in multicolored rivets, rings chains and plates.

Slung across his back are a small duffel and a smaller instrument case.

Over all, he wears an enormous felt hat with a large brim. The hat is wine colored, with a multicolored hatband decorated with leather flowers and ribbons.

Class/kit abilities
Fool's Luck: It is amazing to most that Jesters can survive in any situation. They are careless, foolish, and given to whimsical decisions. It is fool's luck that has saved many a Jester's life.
Jesters receive a +1 bonus (+5% on percentile rolls) to most die rolls. This includes saving throws, initiative, surprise, proficiency checks, thief skill checks, ability checks, and ability sub-checks (e.g., bend bars/lift gates, resurrection survival, and so on). The fool's luck also adds a +1 bonus to the Jester's Armor Class.
About the only die rolls that the fool's luck ability doesn't affect are attack rolls, damage rolls, initial character generation rolls, and Hit Die rolls.

Jesting: Jesting is the art of projecting meaning and mood through the use of body motions. By jesting (or gesturing), a Jester may communicate a single sentence each round to anyone who rolls a successful Wisdom check with a -5 penalty. Such communication is totally silent and does not rely upon a shared language. The Jester must use his entire body for the communication; thus, he must be fully visible and within 30 feet for communication to take place.
Jesting may be done to taunt or tease. Such jesting affects only those who are within 30 feet of the Jester and who are able to fully view him. This form of jesting causes those being jested at to roll a saving throw vs. paralyzation, with a -1 penalty per three levels of the Jester. Those who fail must immediately try to physically strike the Jester for as long as the jesting continues. The effect ends when the jesting ends. Combat strategy is ignored by those who are affected. They recklessly pass by more dangerous targets in an attempt to attack the Jester. Jesting is thus a wonderful way to break the ranks of enemy forces.

Joking: The practice of creating and telling jokes has been elevated to an art form by the Jester; this skill can be used for many special purposes. Jokes are told in an attempt to alter encounter reactions. For any form of joke to function, the Jester must speak a language known by the recipient of the joke. Furthermore, the Jester must be within easy verbal range of the recipient.
Such jokes require 1d10 rounds to tell, after which the audience must roll a saving throw vs. paralyzation with a -1 penalty per three levels of the Jester. Those who fail have their reactions adjusted one level in the direction desired by the Jester. However, those who succeed take the joke the wrong way and have their reactions adjusted one level in the opposite direction.
Finally, a joke told at just the right moment can dispel the effects of fear. Such a joke requires a round to tell and enables all those affected by fear (normal or magical) to roll a second saving throw to avoid the fear (note that those affected by the fear do not immediately run away, but remain until the joke is told). If no first saving throw was allowed, then the saving throw is rolled vs. spell.

A Jester's Mind: Jesters are immune to attacks that cause insanity. Jesters also gain a saving throw bonus equal to their level vs. wizard spells of the enchantment/charm school and priest spells of the charm sphere. (A saving throw of 1 always fails, however.)
Furthermore, any attempt to read a Jester's mind has a percentage chance equal to the Jester's level of causing confusion in the mind reader (treat as if under the effect of a confusion spell).

Besides just dabbling in wizardry, 10th-level bards have the powerful ability to use any written magical item, whether it is a scroll, book, map, or other written form. This skill is not limited by normal class restrictions. Thus, bards can use clerical scrolls, wizard scrolls, and even magical books restricted to other classes.
Since all bards are dabblers and not devotees of the magical arts, their understanding of written magic is imperfect. There is a 15% chance that they use the work incorrectly. The consequences of incorrect use are up to the DM, but they are almost certain to be unpleasant. (It is common for a bard's allies to flee in panic when he begins to read such items.)
