[Head Moderator]

Name: Indrila Greysong
Screen Names: tesarikone / indrila
Alignment: NG
Age: 177
Birthday: November 30 (Dannui's Rise)
Hair: Silvery Grey
Eyes: Black Pools
Height: 5'2"
Weight: 93lbs

Background: Though Indrila is far too young to have actually been a part of the destruction of her people by the drow, nearly wiping them out, she has been reminded her whole life of their treachery. Those that were left were enslaved by extraplanar devils for hundreds of years, and though she was not there, the hatred for the drow, and even the elves who did nothing to assist them still burns bright in her. She is a follower of Kanesh, Mistress of Shadow, a priestess.

Personality: Like most ghost elves, she does not speak all that often. Her voice is soft, and ghostly. If ever forced to be loud, or shout it is hoarse. She does not trust easily, and will test those around her over and over to determine their trustworthiness. To those that have earned her trust, she is gentle, kind, and nurturing. She prefers the darkness, shadows, nighttime. She comes from a dark forest, part of her city is built underground and within the ethereal plane, and sunlight is harsh upon her eyes. Her skin glows with the light of a candle in the darkness, causing many to mistake her for a ghost. It can be stifled if she wishes. She does not think she is better than others, but she may come across that way due to her cold, aloofness.

Description: This small, frail, petite woman has pointed elven ears, ghostly pale skin, and dark eyes. Her hair is silvery grey, straight, and long. The middle of her bottom lip has been dyed stark black and a shadowy line runs down the middle of her chin, down her throat and chest, and disappears into her navel. Her eyes are thickly outlined in kohl, her lashes have been dyed as black as her eyes. There are two shadowy dots upon her forehead above the middle between her eyes. There are black tattoos down each of her fingers, and a tattoo of a circle around her right wrist. When the sun shines upon her bare skin, it has an otherworldly glow. She prefers sheer white, grey or silver clothing, opaque in the areas for modesty - for other's sake.  Due to her devotion to Kanesh, she bleeds black blood.

Family: Xilthara Greysong (xilthara), her daughter.

Hatred: Drow. She hates the drow.

Holy Symbol: Black line down her bottom lip, and two spots on her forehead of shadow.

On your turn you may state you are using Divine Turning, and roll an opposed check, adding a +3 to your roll. If you roll higher, then the undead turns into a harmless, rotting corpse. This can be used once per gemstone rank during any one combat. Priests may also write ONE extra DIVINE spell per gemstone rank.

(rc) Immunity to Sleep
(priest) Magical Affinity
(raffle) Aura of Strength | 3d
[Epic Power 4d, 200XP, 35 Reputation, Quest]
(mage) Magical Resistance | +3 to Magical Saves
^{You are resistant to magics and gain a +1 to all magical saves against registered spells at the time of skill selection. This skill grows as you do; +2 at Amber Rank, +3 at Ruby.}
(o-p) Multitalented Mastery
(e) Word of Anathema
^{Once per day, you can speak a word of anathema against a single creature within 60 feet. This gives the target a –4 penalty on saves, ability checks, and skill checks outside of combat. Target must roll a Willpower against the devout's DC10+INT bonus to pass and be unaffected. This lasts 1 hour at Sapphire, and adds on one hour of duration for each gemstone rank following. If combat is entered, the effect ends.}
(60 Rep) Master Astrologer
Path of the Void
Archetype: Chosen of Kanesh: You have been marked by Kanesh in some way, whether blinded, or given darksight, or marked with shadowy runes, she has claimed you and grants you boons. You crave the darkness, it does not frighten you for you know she watches you from every shadow, guiding your life. The darkness has permeated your existence so deeply, that you bleed black blood.
^{1) Black Hole: (void) This wells a small "black hole" around the follower of the void, giving them limited amount of protection against attacks - providing them with a +5 defense throughout combat, which can go over any defense caps. May be used once per day.
2) Harmonic Void: (void) Jarring, discordant noises fill the area, making it difficult for others to concentrate. You create a zone of disruptive, chaotic arcane harmonies that interfere with any type of spells (devout, arcane or psionic) causing only you to be able to cast spells for one full round, unless any of your targets are Master Astrologers. Master Astrologers get a willpower save of DC15 to resist this power.
3) The Stars are Right: Once per day you are able to force the stars to appear to realign themselves temporarily for your benefit. This allows any one spell, skill or CM that you cast within combat or outside of combat that calls for a roll for success to automatically be successful.

(flavor-s) Pattern of Fate
^{You learn the basic fortune of a creature as a symbol appears over their head that only you can see. If you see a glowing halo, you know that the person has a general good to average fortune ahead and likely will live out a normal lifespan (the creature will not die in the next few months at least). If you see a death's head symbol, you know the person has a hideous fortune ahead or soon will die. If you see a shifting orb of multicolored light, you know the creature is in a state of flux, it is impossible to tell the fate. Using this on someone that heads into danger regularly (like a soldier or adventurer) will usually turn up in flux. You cannot view your own pattern of fate. (Work with your DM for this skill.)}

This chatelaine has a golden quill, an inkwell, a large skeleton key and a few more empty chains for other mundane items such as a pair of scissors. The golden quill is a Pen of Living Parchment, which allows an inkantationist to tattoo onto the flesh a quick version of any tattoo listed (except Arcane or Combat Finger Sleeves), which lasts for one full adventure. It takes a full turn to do the inking, and the recipients turn as well. This may be used up to three times per day. The skeleton key can be used once per week and will open any lock.

1. Knight | This chess piece summons an armored mount (horse) that will last for 3 hours. [One Use]
2. Thin Gold Ring linking her to Melethril
3. Tear of Shitha (solid diamond-like tear shape) (see below)
4. Urn of Speaking Ashes | This stone urn allows you to speak to the dead whose ashes it holds, 1 question per day.
5. Flamma Oracalcum | See below

Pouch of Holding:
1) Thyshi's Holy Symbol: This symbol of Thyshi is made of purple mournlode. When worn, it causes all weapons or unarmed to be treated as if made with purple mournlode.
2) Ghost Salt: This gritty alchemical powder is made from exotic minerals mixed with an infusion crafted from the ectoplasmic remains of destroyed incorporeal undead. When rubbed onto a weapon (takes one round or can be done before combat), ghost salt melts and forms a temporary coating on the weapon. This gives the weapon the ability to not only hit incorporeal creatures but to do +5 extra damage to them, even if the weapon itself is non-magical. This lasts one full combat before the powder fades from the weapon.
3)

SPECIAL: Scale of the Rainbow Serpent: This brilliant, vibrant piece of scale has every imaginable color upon it. This small piece of scale takes the place of one of your fingernails, as if it has grown there. When desired, and a certain color is called from the scale, it erupts in a rainbow. Each color of the rainbow has its own ability. You may use ONLY one color from the scale per combat.
Red: This creates a blast of fire to your enemy, catching them on fire. They take 2 non-defendable damage each round, unless they take a round to douse themselves with enough water to put it out.
Yellow: This blast of energy deals 1d5 acid damage to your opponent, acid defense only.
Green: This removes one status effect from a target, such as a lose turn, or frightened, or sickened. It is up to the DM if this works on every effect, so ask your DM.
Orange: This heals your target of up to 10 points of damage.
Blue: This color covers your weapon, and any allies who wish, with ice so that the weapon does cold damage.
Violet: This blast does damage to undead only, causing them to freeze in place and take no actions for one round, if they fail a Willpower save of DC15.
[This is not a slot item, it has become part of your body and may be listed as "free item". It can be peeled off and removed, your nail will grow back, but once it is peeled off it disappears in a burst of radiance and it is lost forever. It cannot be sold or passed onto anyone else. It is a boon for meeting a creature most have never even known existed.]

----- Explanations

Silver Wolf: Silver Wolf is one of the few brews known to be of wild elf manufacture. The spirit has a silvery and metallic coloring to it, looking like liquid mithral. The drink has a soft and warming beginning and a long and lasting finish that carries a heat throughout the body to soothe and relax. Those who prize good brews have been known to smuggle it

Fey Cherry Wine: The second rarest of all elven wines, this sweet, rose wine is made from the fey cherry, fey cherry trees only produce cherries once a decade. While a grove of fey cherry may be staggered with their production of cherries (i.e. each one may produce different years) it is still a rare occurrence and usually is only produced at the most once a year, and sometimes only every few years. Of course if there is only one fey cherry, it is produced every ten years. Drinking this wine gives the imbiber protection from evil as the spell, for five minutes per day. [Pink - Sweet] (45 gp a glass, 400 gp per bottle) DC 14

Tear of Shitha Information:
1. Can be thrown into fire to produce a brilliant flash, which blinds for 1d3 rounds DC18 END. Leaves elemental prismatic mist behind. Destroyed when used this way.
2. Can be placed on the tongue, melts, gives you the knowledge of 8 more spells for your spellbook of whatever kind of spells you are knowledgeable. Destroyed when used this way.
3. Can be set into jewelry, etc and gives someone who can heal/self-heal 10 extra healing points per adventure. Takes up a loot slot and can be used repeatedly. Loot slot depends on where you've set it.

FLAMMA HORACALCUM
Belt (Hangs on side of belt like small lantern): This small faceted gemstone is ruby red and a small flame can be seen within it's crystalline form. It is harvested from a grotto on the Plane of Fire, where it is touched by the Demiplane of Time. The crystal around the flame allows it to be touched and used. It can be simply held, or mounted on a staff or weapon, ring, or other object. Where you mount/use it determines what slot it uses, ask if necessary.

As a free action, a flamma horacalcum’s level of illumination can be adjusted by its carrier’s thought to range from the brightness of a single candle to that shed by a daylight spell. This light overcomes magical darkness. Once the flamma horacalcum is set down, it continues to radiate its last level of light.

This light bends and warps time in slight ways for its carrier, granting her certain abilities up to three charges per day:
1 Charge: +5 on any one Initiative Roll
2 Charges: The flame casts a hasten spell which gives you +2 to QCK for one round of combat.
3 Charges: The flame unleashes a thin beam of fire, the target gets a DC18 Willpower. Fail, they are slowed to half their QCK for 1d4 rounds.

In certain areas that have been subjected to powerful destructive magical effects associated with fire (up to DM), the light of the flamma horacalcum reveals images from the past. These images only manifest if the device’s light is at its highest setting, and what exactly is revealed can vary—the light may reveal events from only a few hours past, or it may reveal things from hundreds of centuries gone.

Roleplay Note: The flamma horacalcum can be used as a chronomancy focus for time magic.

--Peaceful Weapon: (Evocation) You surround a normal weapon (not a natural weapon) with a field of magical energy that makes it impossible for the weapon to inflict damage in any way. No matter who uses the weapon, it cannot hurt anyone or anything. It cannot even sever rope or fell a tree, for the duration of the hold.

--Ethereal Prison : The mage causes one target to be imprisoned on the ethereal plane, unable to make any actions in the material world.

--Ink Blast: You blast your enemies with a ray of tattoo ink.

It becomes briefly overwhelmed by the emotion and becomes aware of the mockery of what it once was. The target is stunned (this is an exception to the normal rules that might make such a creature immune to stunning).

--None Truly Control the Dead: Your attack causes the target to lose control of any undead that it is controlling for the duration of a hold.

AoE HOLDS
Obsidian: 2 rounds [5 NPCs]

-- Song of Mists : When ghost elves gather, they sing the lonely melodies they dream up in the mists of the thick forest.

Those targets that hear this song become dazed and unable to take action for as many rounds as is allowed.

Obsidian: +5

--Slip Binds : Fading partially into the ethereal plane, a ghost elf is able to better slip free of bindings, giving them a boost to Escape.

--Lonely Elf : The lonely land of the ghost elves often forces them to spend long times apart. A ghost elf has learned the lessons that such silence brings. He gains a bonus to Stealth/Move Silent checks.

--Animated Tattoo : You cast this spell upon another person’s tattoo, causing the tattoo to begin talking in a loud voice. What the tattoo talks about depends on what the tattoo is: a dragon tattoo will be gruff and demand tribute, a cat tattoo will purr and want attention, a dancing girl tattoo will make suggestive remarks, etc. Even if the tattoo is covered, it still talks (most likely including comments about how it doesn’t like being covered up). While the tattoo is talking, the person with the tattoo suffers a penalty to Charisma based checks, and Stealth.

--Whispers of the Dark Mistress : Kanesh whispers her secrets to you, boosting any Knowledge check you need to make.

--Blessing of Life : A ghost elf can enchant an ally's weapon so that it is considered 'magic' for bypassing damage reduction of magic.

--Deathwatch: (Necromancy) Using the powers of necromancy, you can determine the condition of creatures near death within the spell's range. You instantly know whether each creature within the area is dead, fragile (alive and wounded, with 5 or fewer hit points left), fighting off death (alive with 6 or more hit points), healthy, undead, or neither alive nor dead (such as a construct). Deathwatch sees through any spell or skill that allows creatures to feign death.

--Rest Eternal: (Necromancy) You place a curse upon a dead creature that bars its spirit from returning. Anyone casting a spell that would communicate with the dead creature, return it to life, or turn it into an undead creature must pass a spell save. Rest eternal cannot be dispelled, but it can be negated with remove curse or break enchantment. This cannot be used on PC's except by their player's permission.

--Spell Matrix: Outside of combat, cast this spell to store up to two spells to be released later without taking up a round of combat, or using up a spell slot during combat. You may release either of these spells during combat, but only one may be released during any one combat. When this spell is cast, you immediately take 2d6 un-defendable damage that cannot be healed until both spells in the spell matrix are released.
You must be Ruby Ranked to take this spell.

--Spell Turn: This spell stops a non-damaging regged spell (such as a Hold, or a Weaken) in its tracks, and turns the arcane energy right back to the caster, causing them to be hit with the spell instead. The new target must pass the spell save of the original caster or suffer the effects.

---

SKILL EFFECTS

--Alchemical Allocation: This spell causes a pale aura to emanate from your mouth. If you consume a potion or elixir following the casting of this spell, you can spit it back into its container immediately so that it can be used again. You gain all the benefits of the potion or elixir, but it is not consumed. You can only gain the benefits of one potion or elixir at a time, per each casting of this spell. If this is used in combat, the casting of this spell and drinking of the potion uses your turn of combat even if you have a skill that says otherwise.

--Cloak of Shade: (Abjuration) This spell provides the subject with some degree of protection from the harmful effects of the sun. The cloaked subject treats environmental heat due to sun exposure as one level less: severe heat is considered very hot conditions, while very hot is considered average temperature (DM information on heat levels). The spell does not, however, eliminate the effects of direct sunlight on creatures vulnerable to sunlight. Cloak of shade has no effect on environmental heat from sources other than the sun.

--Endure Elements: (Abjuration) A creature protected by endure elements suffers no harm from being in a hot or cold environment. It can exist comfortably in conditions between –50 and 140 degrees Fahrenheit without having to make Endurance saves. The creature's equipment is likewise protected. Endure elements doesn't provide any protection from fire or cold damage, nor does it protect against other environmental hazards such as smoke, lack of air, and so forth.

--Dust of Twilight: A shower of iridescent black particles clings to and extinguishes torches, lanterns, sunrods, and similar mundane light sources in the area.

--See Invisible : Ghost Elf eyes can be trained to make out things normally not visible on the visible spectrum.

--Dimensional Anchor : This bars one creature from extradimensional travel for the duration allowed.

--Hallow: (Evocation [good]) Hallow makes a particular site, building, or structure a holy site. No dead bodies interred in hallowed ground can become undead. A hallowed site cannot be made unhallowed until the duration has been expended. Per the DM, this can be permanent.

--Murashia's Map: (Divination) Developed by a long-dead half-elf spellborn for whom this spell is named, this spell allows the caster to perceive a mental picture of four lights in darkness: one light is the caster, two lights are known places the caster has visited in a previous time (specified during casting), and the third is a chosen being. Viewing this mental map gives the caster a rough idea of the location of a being she seeks, and his or her direction and distance from the caster. If the being is at one of the chosen locations, the spell confirms this and gives great detail as to the subject's whereabouts: a hazy mental picture shows if the being is indoors or outdoors, above or below ground level, and moving or stationary. This can find any creature on the same plane as the caster, unless they are using magic to be hidden or psionic means of concealment.

--Mistwalker : The forest fog holds no fear for ghost elves. A ghost elf with this spell may ignore concealment gained from any fog, smoke, or mist, whether natural or magical. Furthermore, he gains the ability to see clearly through natural fog, smoke, or mist out to a range of 60 feet for the duration of the spell.

--Word of Binding : By stating, "In the name of Kanesh I bind thee," a pair of shining silver manaclaes appear around the target's wrist and ankles. This is an out of combat spell, and the target gets a save. Duration is by gemstone rank.

--Open Sesame: With a burst of insight, you realize that the command word for the death ray is "fluffy kitten." If the target is a creature, you learn any passwords that the creature is waiting for you to speak. If the target is a magic item (or command word-controlled creature), you learn any command words that could activate the item or control the creature. This spell can only be used with DM approval, and with any limits the DM puts on it (such as only once per adventure) They can also ask for an opposed roll of their desire.

--Perusal: You gain a brief but incomplete understanding of one book's contents, equivalent to having skimmed its pages for 1 hour. This insight is not sufficient to translate unknown languages, decipher codes, or memorize text, but it does allow the caster to learn what topics the book discusses— invaluable to an adventurer who must make a snap decision when performing research or deciding whether or not to abscond with a volume.

--Shadow Scry: (Divination) This allows the caster to use a shadow as a scrying device in one's home or business. The shadow must be in the line of sight, and no more than 10 yards distant. Once the spell is cast, the caster can contact another shadow in their home or business and see out of it as if they were standing within that shadow, regardless of the shadow's size or shape. The caster can see everything within sight from the contacted shadow, including the passage of invisible creatures and all normal visual capabilities function normally. Shadows outside the caster's home or business cannot be reached in this way. The caster can switch shadows as she wishes to inspect different areas.

--Move Tattoo : You move a single tattoo that is otherwise permanently inked onto the skin to another part of your body or to someone else's body. You must be able to touch the tattoo’s current location and then touch the destination location. Tattoos can only be moved on the surface of the flesh with this spell; they cannot be moved inside the body, underneath the eyelids, and so forth. The new location will become permanent.

--Air Bubble : A bubble of fresh air envelopes the target's body, enabling them to breathe free and easy, even underwater or in adverse breathing situations.

--Phase Door: This creates an invisible passage through solid rock, stone, wood, etc.

--Commune with Nature: This allows the elf to learn the terrain per the distance allowed by gemstone rank.

--Nighteye : This gives the target or caster darkvision for the duration allowed.

---

FLAVOR EFFECTS

--Carry Companion: You touch an animal or magical beast that has a helpful attitude toward you, instantly transforming the creature into a miniature figurine of stone, small enough to fit into the palm of your hand. Creatures with an attitude of less than helpful will not tolerate this spell, and it automatically fails to work on them. An intelligent animal or magical beast must be a willing subject in order for this spell to take effect. Any items that the creature wears (such as a harness or saddle) or carries (such as those stowed in saddlebags) are transformed along with the creature.

--Floating Disk: (Evocation [force]) You create a slightly concave, circular plane of force that follows you about and carries loads for you. The disk is 3 feet in diameter and 1 inch deep at its center. It can hold 100 pounds of weight per gemstone level. (If used to transport a liquid, its capacity is 2 gallons.) The disk floats approximately 3 feet above the ground at all times and remains level. It floats along horizontally within spell range and will accompany you at a rate of no more than your normal speed each round. If not otherwise directed, it maintains a constant interval of 5 feet between itself and you.

--Teleport : The portal appears for an instant as the spell is cast and the mage traverses it. It appears as an arch of vines, flowers and plants. This only works for places she has been, or can be shown to her on a map.

--Nature's Refuge : The spell creates an elven tree-home in a sufficiently large tree for the duration of the spell.

--Ghost Aura : Her skin glows with the light of a candle, and can be suppressed at will.

--Audible Whisper : Everyone within 100 feet can hear your whisper.

--Godspeed : This allows a creature and mount to move up to three times faster than normal.

--Reparation: This repairs objects, mundane or magical.

--Purify Food & Water: This purifies food and water of impurities.

--Control Vine: This is like an animate rope spell but uses a vine.

--Plane Shift : This spell allows the caster to travel between planes with one extra person per gemstone rank.

---

DUAL SPELLS

--Shadow Burst: (Necromancy [shadow]) This spell creates a burst of grey, shadowy force that leaps from the caster directly towards the target creature. Any living creature struck by the burst that fails their save takes instant damage. Further, the target is wracked with pain that does damage over time.

LEGACY STORY

Though the temples to Kanesh were strange to her here in the mainland, she spent at least a day or so a week in them praying and working along with the other priests and priestesses of the Shadow Goddess. She had a new weapon that she wished to have blessed, though, and that could only be done by another ghost elf in her mind and so she made her way back to Kir'virr, deep within the Ituri Forest in order to find the Temple to Kanesh in the city of the ghost elven people. The city existed right on the cusp of the Prime and Ethereal planes. More of it was underground and in the Ethereal than not, including the temple. Back among her people felt refreshing to the misunderstood ghost elf, for they were a quiet and introspective people who barely spoke above a whisper to one another.

She moved along the pathway towards the temple, bowing her head at the statue of Kanesh before entering through the carved pillars that took her deep into the ground and into the darkness. There was no light in this temple. Not even enough that the various intricate carvings and statues could be seen by someone without the ability to see in the darkness, for the ghost elven folk had darkvision. She moved with ease in the pitch darkness towards the chapel where the holy water within a carved basin stood.

When she entered the area, it was cold and still covered in the pitch darkness. She could make out what was around her using her darkvision, all black and white. There were clerics amidst prayer scattered around the chapel and the high priestess stood behind the altar where the basin of holy water sat. Indrila bowed her head and spoke softly a prayer of thankfulness to Kanesh, and then drew her blade and approached. Ghost elven was traded between her and the high priestess, and then the high priestess took her thinblade and dipped the end into the holy water and with cupped hand began to fill her hand with the water and drip it down along the blade as she chanted:

"Blessings of the Moon above you
Blessings of the Earth below you
Blessings on your people
Blessings on everything upon which your eye does rest
Blessings on everything upon which your hope does rest
Blessings on your thinking and your purpose
Blessings on your bed companion
Blessings on your hand's work
Shadows and Kanesh defend you."

Indrila listened quietly, and when the incantation was over she moved to her knees before the altar and pressed her head to the hard stone floor. The High Priestess continued to dip into the water and drip it along the weapon until every single inch of it including the hilt had been blessed by the holy water. The sword was then placed upon the altar and covered in shadowsilk, and the High Priestess stepped away allowing Indrila to meditate.

A full night and day passed, and Indrila meditated and prayed before the altar in the darkness of the halls of Kanesh. When the time had come for her vigil to be over, the High Priestess approached again and picked up her weapon and held it before her, and Indrila would hear the ghost elven words whispered again,

"Who do you serve?"

She answered with ease, "Kanesh, Mistress of Shadows."

The High Priestess nodded, and held the weapon out to her. "Rise, Blessed of Kanesh. Here is your weapon, freely given from my hand to yours as by Kanesh herself. Use it in praise of Kanesh, bringing those whose time has come into Her gentle night."

Indrila answered, "Lady of Kanesh, thank you for this blessed blade. I will use it to serve Kanesh and her people as long as I shall find breath."

The High Priestess stepped away, and Indrila stood, holding the sword gently in hand. She moved along the hallways, and pathways until she stepped into the shadows of Ituri. Finding a fallen log to sit upon, she sat and lay it across her lap, her hand pressed to the blade. It was now time for her to meditate until she found out the name of the weapon for all consecrated weapons name themselves.

It did not take long for her to hear the name of the weapon, hours later she rose and held the weapon upwards towards the moon, and uttered the weapon's name for the first time, Ryain Fuinrakk. As she spoke it's name in ghost elven, the blade seemed to sigh, letting out a puff of darkness all along the blade, as if finally it's breath that had been held could be released. It was now empowered, sworn to Indrila, blessed by Kanesh. It was now her legacy thinblade.
