(Character related post. my puter is dead i think, so these wont be fast coming.)
Well, the two scars made it too the tower and made it within. More undead and other foul guardians were there protecting the tower, but the two scars destroyed everything that they met. The tower was small, and was obviously the wizards home. During the course of searching the tower the troupe came across evidence that the necromancer had once had an apprentice that he attempted to seduce and fail. Aside from the strange romance between the necromancer and his apprentice, the troupe also came across a book, possibly the information that the wizard had told them about. the book was ancient and was obviously written long before the great collapse. The contents of the book detailed several rings dedicated to dragons. Kharask recognized the rings from the tales of his past, the rings having a near holy meaning to the dragonborn. It was becoming evident how the blue scales had become so organized and dedicated. If they had found out about such artifacts, they would surely do anything to obtain them. What they would do once they were attained, Kharask had no answer for that. After searching the tower and looking over the books the troupe spent the night in the tower. Kharask wanted to destroy the tower, still believing there to be more to the necromancers motivations. They had found a portal not mentioned by the necromancer, and the information they found, though important, did not lead them in any direction, it simply created more questions. The others in the company convinced kharask to leave the tower in one piece, and to leave the portal untouched until it could be researched further. After leaving the tower the next morning, the two scars made there way towards Karan-Has. (I'll leave out some of the town information since it is not all complete.)
After returning to the port town, Kharask had some time to reflect on the two scars. The information below is some of his thoughts about the performance of his comrades.
Erantaelik - The drow disapointed Kharask during the adventure. In a moment of selfishness the drow chose himself over that of the party. Refusing to do his duties was an unforgiving move on the sword mages part, and it is a slight that the dragonborn will not soon forget. The drow later spoke with kharask about the matter and the two resolved it, but for kharask it was too late. Putting ones own personal views over that of ones comrades is reckless and it shows Kharask that the drow still has much maturing to do. He needs the drow to be dependable, and hopes that in the future he can become someone the dragonborn can rely upon. Ironically it seems that the drow felt that kharask did not fully trust him, and because of that refused to do what was required of him, and because of that, made Kharask's faith in him waver. The drow is becoming stronger, faster, and more capable when he puts his will into it, however, if he refuses to put forth his will when his ego becomes bruised he will quickly become a liability. Kharask will be a forgiving leader at this point, though if it were a tribesmate, things would have turned out much differently.
Merric - A powerful and unpredictable ally. Kharask worries for his small friend, knowing that soon they will start finding clues as to the whereabouts and fate of the halflings family. The dragonborn does not have the heart to tell him that if the blue scales have had them prisoner, they are more than likely dead. Merric carries the will of vengeance, and he hopes that the halfling will maintain a steady hold on his dedication to killing the followers of tiamat. Kharask needs dependable and crafty companions. The blue scales know exactly how kharask is going to come for them, they know how he thinks, how he will react, and how to make him react. Merric is an upredictable and energetic ally. He cannot be predicted, remains underestimated by the blue scales, and the followers of tiamat know almost nothing about him. To Kharask, merric is a secret weapon he wishes to hold onto for as long as possible.
Dalanor - Becoming wiser and more competent day by day. At first nearly mad with power, the wizard seems to be coming down, relying on his allies, and finding a niche within the Two Scars. Kharask considers Dalanor to be enlightened, but hasty. The mage's actions can seem rushed and anxious, which is worriesome. As the mage finds out more about his past he becomes consumed with it. The time will come when the silver elf has all revealed to him, but he must be patient. Kharask can only help guide the mage in personal matters, while Dalanor guides Kharask in matters beyond the dragonborn. He worries about the contact with the necromancers tower, knowing that wizards, seers and the like can be come obsessed with power simply by being in places touched by it. He is allowing the wizard to do more research on the sight, and hopes that doing so wont be a mistake.
Azriel - Was a usefull guide and combatant. He continues to be predictable and reliable. Still keeping to himself, the elf does not reveal much about his past. He has proven to be a decent follower, and can usually follow kharask's tactical mind. Kharask wonders at the depth of the elf sometimes, wondering if azriel has a thin skin, or if underneath he hides more of his personality. Still, to kharask it is refreshing. He does not need to second guess the elfs decisions, and can usually guess at the elfs actions.
Baerd - A powerful ally and asset to the Two Scars. He may be a bit unpredictable, but he is quickly becoming a powerful threat to the followers of tiamat. Kharask needs strength like baerds if he plans on taking on the hellish followers that will be throwing themselves at the company, he also needs fearless rage when facing down foes much powerful than the company, and the ability to ignore the possibility of loss when faced with impossible odds. Baerd is a strength that Kharask does not want to lose, unfortunately, it is the strong and powerful warriors that fade away into time and legend far before they should. He hopes baerd does not face such a fate, and can remain with the two scars to face down there most powerful foes.
(ok, thats all on this post.)
