I don't usually write these up, especially for a 3 week old PC but this was something new for me. I wanted to try something fresh for me, but still fun. So I went and looked for inspiration in my favorite of places. Mostly Forgotten cliché games from my childhood. And I came up with Drake of Fair-Field, based **heavily** on a very plain and generic "Hero" type.

So I made Drake of Fair-Field, a young refugee from one of the scattered settlements within the Rings living in the Alleys and Rubble of this Great City. Wholly removed from the politics and events of Nine Nine when the Pallid began popping portal open he lost everything he loved and everything he knew under their bony greaves.  To better depict the classic "Might" AND "Magic" of the old 3DO games I went for a Contriver, a class and perk I've -never- played.

I learned a -lot- of what I could and shouldn't do. I understand the love of spellcasters some people have though!



The plan was always to be a heat seeking missile to doing anything that would help defeat the Count, which is why I jumped at the chance to get a new tool in destroying Him and his Legions. Enter the Feast, with all its Worm filled Glory, which really gave me some paranoia.



But I ended up winning my prize!



The Goal always was to Destroy the Pallid, no matter what the cost so I spent nearly every coin I got and made -sure- my weekend was free for the Siege of the Pallid Palace. It lucked out I was able to do so and it was a pretty epic event









I can happily say I made it all the way to the final chamber, battling the Prince himself before being deleted by the Master of the Hunt. It was a perfect end ot a man who had nothing left of his past, and nothing of a future...



Though he felt himself torn between the honor of the Moonspears, and the Efficiency of Orza he died Bannerless



All in all I had an exceptionally fun time and this was something new and exciting for me to play. Even after all these years EfU surprises me with how little I actually know of how to play this game, and that makes it fun!

Sometimes the most important people are not the ones with titles or fancy speeches, but who merely dare to pick up a sword and shield.

I still like the comic I indirectly helped create by spawning doom.
