A Possible BackgroundYour mother/father was fairly famous sniper for the Shining Patrol. You dreamed of glory either following in their footsteps or fighting against the elorii invaders. Instead your parents dreamed of keeping you "safe." So they found a spot for you in as part of the City Watch in Semar. This was not your dream, but you honored your parents and served honorably. You have a real knack for finding out the truth. People began seeking you out to "moonlight" when they needed a discrete or unofficial investigation. But the pay sucked and you still dreamed of adventure. So you've mustered out and are taking your skills on the road.

1.4 - Universal: Any 2 Talents
1.5 - Universal: +2 All defenses

Advancement Notes: This build assumes the player will take the Arcimious Primeus Fighting Style to deliver arcane attacks through melee. In the alternative the arcane attacks can be kept relevant in combat by taking the Talents Sword & Spell (and Sabatical) and paths that grant skill ranks to Arcanum(Eldritch). See the Codex of Heroes

A Possible Background:Your true parents are vals of Milandir and known to you. But being born human, you are unrecognized. Its just an open secret no one is supposed to talk about. One of your parents has always supported you from behind the scenes. But the other has shunned you. When you tried confrontation demanding recognition or at least an explanation, he/she batted you aside with psionic power and charged you with assault. You were then branded (literally) by the State of Milandir as a violent criminal. The absolute injustice of this continues to burn inside you as doors are closed to you in polite society. So you traveled to the Pirate Isles, where such things matter less. You have sworn there will be a reckoning at some point - and though the path forward is as an Eldritch caster is perilous - it will be worth it to have an arcane surprise of your own to counter your parent's psionics.

Post subject:  Re: (Un)official Tier 1.5 Pre-gen characters for Living Camp
I had wanted to write a Nierite (and I still might), but I was beaten to it. My goal with this character was to make a well rounded (read: not min/maxed) character with an interesting back story. This character is meant to be primarily a support character, not a blaster or front line fighter. I decided to go with Bard as the T1 path...Shaman would be a logical T2 path, and of course if anyone plays this character you could easily switch Bard out for Shaman at T1 and reverse the order.

Enjoy!

Pengik Medicine Man/Woman

Short, lean, and heavily tattooed, you have trained for many years to be a spiritual guide for your people, the Pengik. The tribe has a strong oral tradition stretching back centuries; many of the stories you’ve learned are from the days when the Pengik were servants to the brutal Ssanu. Your skin, like that of your mentor, has been tattooed with images of your ancient oppressors and the many experiments they conducted on your ancestors.

Although in recent years the infernals have been a greater threat to the Pengik than the Ssethregorans, it is your job to be the memory of your people, and to ensure that they do not forget the history of the tribe. You were reluctant to leave your people behind, but you understand that the only way to know the dangers the Pengik face is to see them yourself; you are determined to return to the tribe as soon as possible. In the meantime, your companions are a horse from a strong bloodline and an ancient scimitar, both gifts from your mentor when you began your journey.

Only recently have you began to interact with the outer world perfecting your craft in bow and fletching, but the call of the woods is relentless. Even during your times your are concentrating the most on your crafting, you take a pause and look towards the direction of Vastwood. It's calling you. Calling to be free ... to come Home.

Brotherhood of Man Sarishan

You were raised by a couple that bore you no love, but raised you for money. Never understanding why your parents would forsake you, but still support you, you eventually traced the money back to your father, a Val’Mehan ashamed of having a merely human child. Words were said, words like disappointment, hate, and never. You will show them all; all those proud, arrogant Val. Whether due to blackmail to reveal your existence, or a secret care for his child, your father has been helpful in assisting your advancement through the Sarishan ranks, where, again, you are usually seen as inferior to Val’Mehan with less skill than yourself.

Though you are merely human, you have excelled as a Sarishan priest, despite not being a vaunted Val. Someday you will be an elite sarishan binder and sorcerer priest of sarish. You will use any means to improve yourself, no matter how… questionable. You have read all you can on the ssethric empire biomancers, and of the works of the vivisectionist. You know there are strange and wonderful things out in the world. Things that can make you better than a Val. You may fill the role of a healer well, but that is not the point of your research. You will show them, you will show them all.
