Lyceus Kellimar is a strange individual; by turns aloof and cold or convivial. Given to bouts of stoic melancholy, and above all else committed to the performance of some ancient and arcane duty and the preservation of his somewhat fragile dignity and pride. He wields, or is burdened by, an incredibly powerful magical sword he calls 'Mourning,' a slightly curved blade of antiquity wrought from moonsilver that cuts through flesh or bone, metal or stone, with equal aplomb. The weapon is secured in a heavily enchanted scabbard until Lyceus must draw it for the defense of his life or livelihood, or the pursuit of his duties. Once drawn, he says, it cannot be returned without its thirst being sated. For lesser threats he carries other weapons, though he handles them with the resigned disdain of a classically trained artist drawing street caricatures. His armor too, while appearing as segmented plates of mithril, is enchanted to augment strength, durability, and permit survival in virtually any environment, however threatening.

To the crew of the Remorseless he offers skills developed over several lifetimes of any other species; expertise in the ways of war, of history, of diplomacy, and absolute mastery of combat arts and spellcasting. As for why the Knight of Thorns has chosen to throw his lot in with such a ragtag crew, well, he seldom speaks of his motivations as such...but perhaps there is a good cause for him to hide his lamp in such a sooty spot.

Sweet,
I like it.
  • 2D6 EFFECT
    2 Catastrophe: Something goes terribly wrong. The GM must decide what, but some ideas are a new and permanent Minor Hindrance, the inability to use powers for several days, or an explosion of some sort. The backlash should be thematic if possible. If the hero tampers with dark forces for his abilities, for example, he might become corrupted or summon something sinister into the world. If he’s a weird scientist the device might explode for 3d6 damage in a Medium Blast Template, or he might develop a Quirk, Phobia, or other “madness.”

    3 Backfire: The power succeeds as with a raise but affects a different target with the worst possible results. A bolt hits a random friend, boost Trait increases an enemy’s skill or attribute, etc. If there’s no likely target, he’s Stunned instead. If the power has a Duration other than Instant, it lasts its full term and can only be negated by dispel (the caster can’t voluntarily end it herself).

    4–5 Short Circuit: The power fails but the Power Points allocated to it are spent, along with an additional 1d6 Power Points.

    6–8 Stunned: The caster is Stunned (see page 106). She subtracts 2 from arcane skill rolls for the rest of the encounter (the penalty remains –2 even if she gets this result again).

    9–10 Overload: The character’s synapses crackle and overload with power. He takes 2d6 damage plus the cost of the power in Power Points, including any Power Modifiers the player declared.

    11 Fatigue: The character suffers Fatigue.

    12 Overcharge: The power draws ambient energy from the air, automatically succeeding against the target with a raise and costing the caster no Power Points!
