Powers
Avenging Light (At Will Standard Ranged 10 ✦ Divine, Implement, Radiant) Target: One creature Attack: +6 vs. Fort Hit: 1d10 + 5 radiant damage; if a bloodied ally is adjacent to the target, the attack deals an extra 3 radiant damage. Special: You can use this power as a Ranged Basic Attack.

When you take a move action, you can also move the spirit 6 squares. The spirit can be targeted by melee or ranged attacks, although it lacks hit points.

Fluff

Background

A thousand miles across the Shifting Seas, in a city that struggles to rebuild itself from the ruins of a once vast and powerful empire; a hidden temple reverberates with the chanting of a hundred loyal followers. Their many voices are filled with awe that they have lived to see this day, and hope that their deeds today will turn the tide in the battle against the darkness.

For millennia the vaulted ceiling above has been home to an untold number of ravens; filling the temple with their caws and barks, but today the dark birds are silent, as though they know what is about to happen.

The chanting quietens as the High Priestess appears, garbed in many layers of dark silks and feathers, a half mask obsures her face. She moves through the crowd affording small glances of respect for those that she knows and looks of appraisal for those that she does not (for that is the way of their church, even one such as she does not know everyone under her guidance). When she reaches the alter, the graceful woman turns and addresses the assembled faithful, an enormous statue of a winged goddess at her back:

"Long have we waited, long have we listened, long have we adhered to Our Lady's tenet; to maintain the balance of the world through the giving and taking of knowledge alone. Only once in all the ages that we have watched, have we raised our hands in action; when the balance was threatened so much that the guardians of the Glass Tower spoke the words of summoning entrusted to them at the beginning of time. For years now the balance has faltered; and we had thought the guardians lost when the Tower fell, but we were wrong. From across the sea a decendant of that order has returned to us!"

The High Priestess gestures to one of the hooded figures in the crowd, he steps forward and approaches the statue. The Priestess and all assembled kneel as the figure raises his arms in worship;

"As the world falls into disharmony, and the very essesnce of life is threatened. I call upon our Lady of Secrets to send to us her child.
One who will; by his every deed, change what is written and make the future unknown.
One who can; by his every word, change the fate of the world.
As we watch and listen, so he will act and speak."

The stone statue stirs, gasps fill the chamber as the colossus bends down so her ear is at the hight of the mans mouth. Nervously; but surely, he whispers the ancient words handed down through his family to the statue. There is a brilliant flash of light, and all in the chamber are momentarily blinded. When their vision clears the statue has returned to it's previous position, and stood before the alter with a nimbus of light still clinging to him, is a naked man; his purple skin is adorned with divine markings, and the pure white orbs that are his eyes look out across the room, He speaks with a voice that is quiet, but strong, and no one in the room misses a word that is spoken.

"I am Psais; child of the Elysian Raven, Hand of Fate. It has been countless centuries since I last walked in the mortal realm, and I have forgotten much of what knew then. But my mother; your Lady has told me where I must go to learn. She said to you; her flock of ravens, 'you have suffered greatly in the past years, but you must grow strong; for soon will come a time when the whole world teeters on the brink of destruction, and you will be needed. You must spread your wings, fly to those places where you have no ears to listen, or eyes to watch, for we no not where or when this threat will come.' I will return with he who summoned me; across the seas, there i will relearn what I have forgotten, and help to spread our influence in the new lands."

Psais soon travelled to Daunton with Ambassador Glasston; son of the eminent Lady Glasston, and his new fiancee Madame Ormous who the Screamer have fondly nick-named 'Madame Feathers'. He has lodgings at Glasston Manor.

Description

Psais is six feet tall with an average build, his skin is a vivid shade of purple adorned with divine glyphs of bright blue, one of which resembles a raven in flight. You would think that with such an outlandish appearance he would stand out from the crowd; but this could not be further from the truth. When he is silent he is barely noticeable, as though ones mind simply skips over the fact that he is there. When he speaks however, his quiet, purposeful voice holds the attention of all who listen. Those who are sensitive to the influence of the gods hear their will in his words, and see their watchful gaze in his eyes. Psais is a watchful person; he takes in all that he sees and hears, often hesitant to act, for he knows that the outcome of his actions cannot be predicted. But when he is moved to act, he does so with determination; and if heaven forbid he is moved to anger, one could feel the wrath of the gods flowing through him.

Hooks

• Psais is a member of The Whispering Ravens. But he is not bound by their code of no action.
• Psais is the son of the Elysian Raven; the (supposed) true form of Merkari, divine blood flows through his veins. This is something that if certain people learned of they would covet.
• Psais' actions are free from prophecy, his deeds in the world can set it on a new path, or derail it from a path it was set upon.
• Psais' divine mother speaks to him through a spirit avatar that is bound to his soul; the raven that shares his essence works with him (most times), but not for him. (read: DMs feel free to dictate his spirit companions actions)

Kicker

• Psais is as yet unsure of his purpose in the world. He knows that he is here to restore the balance; to restore the many fallen civilisations to greatness. But how to go about that? He must learn how to fight the evils that beset the world, and learn about the people who fight beside him.

Judge Comments

Level 1

Approval 1

Fragsie, your attributes start at 10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 8 and go up. They are not allowed to go down from there. So you can have ONE ability score lower than 10, but the rest must be above that. You cannot "gain" attribute purchasing points by lowering a 10 to a 9 or below (or an 8 to below 8). Please fix this and resubmit so that I can continue approving your character!

I can see that you made the updates both H.M. and I made suggestions on. Awesome backstory. I look forward to seeing Psais in action! 1 approval from Kalidrev.
