Character Creation: General Discussion

[Vortigern]

I propose a slight modification.

I am concerned that this companion is less bellicose than might fit the needs of an intended hoplite character. That said it does seem rather authentically medieval to me, and I like that.

What would you say to making this companion a member of the Priory that is on Inchmore Island and therefore a local, who has taken an interest in the Covenant that is now founded on the island?

Perhaps he thinks these Magi need spiritual guidance, whether they are his designated flock or not?

Inchmore, Priory

The only other stone building on the island is the small featureless church on the north end of the island. The church is a priory of the Canons Regular of St. Augustine, the most widespread religious order in Ireland. The small priory has a rather eclectic collection of monks who aren’t particularly known for their piety. In fact it isn’t unknown for some of the brothers to leave small bowls of cream out to appease the local faeries. Many seem far more interested in maintaining their small apiaries and brewing mead than the practice of religion. During the day the Priory and the immediately surrounding grounds containing the apiaries of the monks are covered in a mild Divine Aura (Rating +2) that is just powerful enough to overweigh the sway of Faerie. At night however this weakens and retreats to into only covering the physical structure of the Priory itself (Rating +1).
