Yozun'Dur

This character was created for a AD&D 2e adventure (DM: Luis M.).

I guess by that time we were all reading R. A. Salvatore's Drizzt series, and wanted to play an evil party, so everyone rolled a drow.

I made a fighter that wielded two short swords (specialist, two-weapon style, ambidexteriry and a short sword of quickness). They were outcasts from their city and made their way through the Underdark and somehow (?) ended in the surface world.

Argyle Avalon

This character was created for a high-level (17th) homebrew campaign (DMs: Ejbs & JRR).

He was a wealthy noble Fighter/Cleric of Alastor (we even created a god for him!) who owned land and a castle. Long time ago, he blamed himself for the death of his wife, so he hung the sword and turned to religion. Many years later he his forced to wield it again to fight evil.

I guess I chose that name after the movie "Braveheart". Even the adventure was influenced by that movie since Argyle had the title of Lord of Falkirk. ;-)

Branwyn

This character was created for an AD&D 2e campaign (DM: Rous).
This group of characters adventured in many diferent parts of the Flannaes, from the Cold Marshes in the north to the infamous Osson's Raid in southern Medegia. We had a lot of fun with this group. The Silverleaf brothers were really chaotic and some of our doings are still remembered: torturing a tortured kobold, using the bard as bait to "fish" sahuagins, ventriloquism with Jame's dead corpse, cutting kenku's hands to infiltrate their lair and much more!. ;-)
The other members of the group were:
  • Cedric Silverleaf, an elven fighter (Federico V.)
  • ??? Silverleaf, an elven cleric of Elhonna (Pedro C.)
  • James, a human psionicist (Diego O.)
  • Branwyn, a half-elven bard (yeah, yeah, I know, ANOTHER bard) (Gabriel P.)

Tröy Tryggvasson

The last campaign ended with most of the party dead (some were resurected) so the DM (Marcelo B.) took some time off. After a while he returned with the promise of change in his DMing style, so we rolled characters once more. This time the setting were the frozen lands and seas of the north barbarians but, although we had fun, the ending was the same.

Since we had the Viking Campaign Sourcebook, I chose to play a fighter/skald from the city of Djekul in the Frost Barbarians. The rest of the adventuring party were:
  • Harn, a human fighter (Javier R.)
  • André Törn, a human cleric of Phaulkon (Sebastian R.)
  • Steintorn, a human fighter (German H.)
  • Drot, a human fighter from Ratik (Eduardo B.)
  • Konrad, a human fighter (Daniel R.)
  • Ringlas, an elven fighter/magic-user from the Timberway Forest (Rodolfo P.)
  • Tröy, a human fighter/skald (Gabriel P.)
Since childhood he always felt curious about the sagas and legends of his people. Cheerful, brave and proud, Tröy became an able seaman and fighter, always inspiring his comrades in battle with song, word and action.

Niall Slainte-Mhath

This character was rolled for a AD&D 2e high level (15th) campaign.

The idea was concocted by two dungeon masters (Gerardo T. & Ejbs) that wanted to join their groups into a mega-adventure. An ambitious project indeed, but the first (and only) session was C-H-A-O-T-I-C!!. Sorry it didn't work since I've never played a high level character before.

Niall was a half-elven Riddlemaster. Yeah I know, another bard. I guesss I have "a thing" with bards. Anyway, he was to re-unite a group of powerful adventurers and guide them to the fabled Dragon Mountain and unveil its secrets... and treasures.

Those high-level adventurers were:

  • Inshalen, a grey elf magic-user/thief
  • Egil Steinthor, a human runecaster
  • Agnar Bloodaxe, a dwarven weapons master
  • Avelogue, a human cleric
  • Questor, a human magic-user
  • Lady Melian of Roke, a human paladin
  • Alanon, a human druid
  • Niall, a half-elven riddlemaster
Niall turned through the years from an adventuring bard to an adventuring scholar or sage. Always interested in myths and legends of different cultures and races he traveled the known world seeking for hidden knowledge.
