Feats & Class Abilities

Feats:

Weapon Focus: Golden Melon Hammer

Class Abilities:
Steely Resolve (Ex): Your supreme dedication and intense focus allow you to temporarily set aside the pain and hindering effects of injuries. When an opponent strikes you, the injury does not immediately affect you. You have a delayed damage pool that allows you to forestall the effects of many injuries. This pool begins at 0 with each encounter. When you are attacked, any hit point damage the blow deals is added to your delayed damage pool. At the end of your next turn, you take damage equal to the total stored in your delayed damage pool, which then resets to 0. Any healing you receive can either increase your current hit point total as normal or reduce the total damage in your delayed damage pool. When you receive healing, you choose whether it affects your damage pool, your hit points, or both (you can split the amount of healing as you wish). Most crusaders opt to keep as much damage in their delayed damage pool as possible to maximize the benefit of their furious counterstrike ability (see below). Damage reduction does not apply to the damage that is received from Steely Resolve.
Special effects tied to an attack, such as energy drain, stun, and so forth, still affect you as normal, and their effects are not delayed by this ability. For example, if you are bitten by a venomous spider, you must still attempt a Fortitude save against the poison immediately, even though the bite damage shifts into your delayed damage pool. By the same token, any other special attack that imposes a condition, such as a medusa’s petrifying gaze, takes immediate effect on you.
At 1st level, your delayed damage pool can hold up to 5 points of damage. Any damage beyond that comes off your hit points as normal. The maximum damage your pool holds increases by 5 at 4th, 8th, 12th, 16th, and 20th level.

Furious Counterstrike (Ex): You can channel the pain of your injuries into a boiling rage that lets you lash out at your enemies with renewed vigor and power. Each attack that strikes you only pushes you onward to greater glory. During your turn, you gain a bonus on attack rolls and damage rolls equal to the current value of your delayed damage pool (see steely resolve, above) divided by 5, and rounding down (minimum +1). You can only gain a maximum bonus on attack rolls and damage rolls of +6 from furious counterstrike. Use the table below to quickly determine the attack bonus and damage bonus from furious counterstrike, based on the amount of damage in your delayed damage pool. This ability’s benefits last until the end of your turn.

Questionaire

A: Appearance
1) Describe yourself as someone meeting you for the first time would see you. (Race?, Gender?, Age?, Size? Coloration? Attractiveness?, Dress? Do you try to emphasize or hide any of these features?)

Vivianne stands 5'4 with waist length hair the color of sunlit honey and large golden brown eyes eyes. She favors simple styles of clothing under her armor in shades of rich blue or rich green that set off her tan skin and golden hair. Her build is well formed but on the slender side, the heavy armor does little to mask the curves hidden under it though.

2) What other details would someone notice on a closer look? (Distinguishing marks, birthmarks, scars, etc?)

While she has a few scars here and there from a lifetime of minor accidents and training cuts, she doesn't have any obvious birthmarks or distinguishing marks.

3) Do you have a distinctive way of speaking or any other mannerisms or memorable behavior?

Vivianne is the quieter sister and when she speaks its generally in a polite tone, less commanding than her sister's.

B: Birth and Family
1) Where and when were you born? (Also good to include: Do you know your exact birthdate? Did anything unusual (storms, accidents, deaths, etc?) happen about the same time, with which some people might still associate your birthdate?)

Mora (early fall) 21st. Parents home on Isle of the Mighty.

2) Who are your parents? (Names, Occupations, Social class, Were they married?, Are they still alive? are all good things to include)

Father: Jorden Caderyn, A hero of some note, Paladin and general holy servant, he traveled extensively with the girls when they were younger, showing them the world and teaching all he could to inquisitive young minds.
Mother: Arianne, a celestial blooded human, her presence in the girls life was intermittent but dearly cherished, her final vanishing still weighs on Viviane, who wonders where the woman who gave her life is now.

The parents were never married, thinking the bond of love shared more important than a physical symbol, Both may still be alive, her father certainly is, still in the family home on Isle of the mighty. Arianne however vanished when Viviane reached 14, her presence had been intermittent before then, long periods of time when she was away, doing who knew what though she spent as much time guiding her young daughters as possible.

3) Do you have any siblings? (If so, it would be good to describe them as you did your parents above.)

Yes: Bree Cadeyrn is her older sister, confidant and best friend. They are traveling together and many say they look quite similar, Bree's hair is a paler platinum blond as opposed to sunny honey blond, though.

4) Do you know any members of your extended family? (grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins? Also would be good to describe them as above)

Due to the nature of their mother her family is unknown, any paternal grandparents have since passed on, and the father was an only child leaving him Vivianne's sole blood relative other than Bree.

5) How did you get along with your family?

Wonderfully. Vivianne is welcome home at any time and she deeply loves, respects and adores her father. Her relationship with Bree is equally loving with the younger girl looking up to her older and more charismatic sister.

C: Education and Work
1) Did you serve an apprenticeship in order to learn your current profession/class? For how long?

No, though her father trained her in martial ways, reading, rights and wrongs and when her father's teachings didn't advance her any more she learned with her sister, trial and error teaching them many things and giving each girl a distinct style.

2) If you were not an apprentice, how did you learn your trade/skills/ect? Formal schooling? Informal Teachers? Self-Taught?

Her father did most of her schooling while they traveled.

3) Who was your master or teacher? (Race? Gender? Appearance? Personality?) Is he/she still alive? How were you treated? Are/Were you on good terms with your master?

Father, and to the same extent her sister.

4) Did your teacher have any other apprentices or students? Who were they? Did you get along?

Her sister, Bree.

5) Due to the rarity of literacy in this setting, how important are books, writings, letters, ect. to your character? Regardless as to whether or not he/she can read?

Books are interesting but people are more important. The choice between saving a soul and saving a book will ALWAYS end in the favor of the humanoid life, regardless of the book in question.

6) Do you have a job other than "adventurer"? Who do you work for? How much of your time does this require?

Not currently.

D: Friends
1) Who were your friends as a child? As an adolescent? As an adult?

Bree is her best friend, and always has been. Being that the family traveled a lot, her father taking jobs as a paladin and hero of the people and taking his girls with him to teach and protect them they never really got to close to anyone else.

2) How many of these people are still alive? How many are you still friends with?

Bree is very much alive and well, as is her father.

3) Who is/was your best friend? What is the most memorable thing that the two of you ever did together?

Life is all memories, there is no way to pick one moment of a lifetime of companionship to call the most memorable.

4) What do you look for in a friend?

Loyalty, honesty, dedication. Vivianne puts friends and family as some of the most important things in her life, to have that devotion not returned would hurt her greatly.

5) Have you ever been in love? Was it reciprocated? Do you have (or have you had) a boy-/girlfriend, a lover, or a spouse? More than one? Are you looking for one? What do you look for in a romantic partner?

Romantically, no she's never really been away from her family and duty long enough to fall in love and isn't really seeking such. She believes when its time for love to find her it will, as it did with her parents and looking for it early would simply distract her from other important things.

E: Attitudes and Beliefs
1) What are your beliefs about religion and the afterlife? Do you follow any particular god or gods? What appeals to you most about this religion? Least?

Religion can be extremely powerful and while she has a lot of respect for religion her father's paladin nature didn't rub off on Vivianne. She is a good person and exemplifies much of what the good deities would look for in a follower but she believes in doing good before doing service to a god. When these two coincide its wonderful but she claims alliance to no deity. The afterlife is peace at the end of a long day, or torment for the torments visited upon others depending on whose afterlife is in discussion. The community and family feel of religion would draw her most.

2) Where do spirits of nature, the elements and the dead fit into these beliefs?

Spirits of nature and elements gain the same passing respect from Vivianne that everything else she doesn't truly think about often receive, the truly dead should be honored and missed and the dead that walk are generally a blight upon the face of Therafim, evil things to be removed before they harm others.

3) What gods, religions, or priesthoods will you have nothing to do with?

Those that focus heavily on the darkness or evil in the world, condone tormenting the weak or harming the innocent. Her views on deities are very Paladin in what is acceptable and what isn't.

4) What is your moral code? Under what conditions will you kill? Steal? Lie? Do you have a personal code of behavior about violence? Magic? Sex? Dealing with Evil Beings?

Again her moral values bear striking resemblance to the code followed by Paladins. Duty, Honor, Right. Vivianne will kill in the defense of self or others or if the person/creature is irrevocably evil and offers her no option. Stealing is against the rules and thus to be avoided at all costs, as is deception, even in the cause of diplomacy a difficult truth in the end is more powerful than the most gilded of lies. Violence is something to resort to after trying to reason, magic is less important than its wielder, magic itself is a tool one that has no place in honorable combat unless its offered to both participants. Dealing with evil beings should be avoided, they try to twist one into their own image and misuse people.

5) How committed are you to seeing through something (a task, quest, bargain, etc) that you have started?

Extremely, Once her word is given Vivianne will work tirelessly at a goal unless it would risk the life of something she holds dear, her sister.

6) How important are the following to you?: Power, Wealth, Fame, Honor, Family, Friends, Love, Knowledge, Religion, Your job? To what lengths would you go to acquire or preserve these things?

Above and beyond all to Vivianne is Family. She would give everything, any hope of power, privilege, endure any pain to protect her father and her sister.
Honor falls next, Her word is paramount.
Power is only a means to protect those dear to her, something that she would do at any cost thus power ranks fairly high as well.
Fame is more the ideal of her sister, though she would love to be remembered for the good done with her life.
Friends, she has none but she will see them as family nearly, something to cherish and protect.
Knowledge and religion are interesting but not all that important, nor is wealth.

7) How often do you remember your dreams? How much attention do you pay to them? Do they inspire you? Guide you? Inspire You? Warn you? Frighten You?

As often as anyone else, but she rarely remembers them.

8) What is your attitude towards magic? People who use it? Fearsome monsters? The unknown in general?

Magic is a tool, used for good or ill at the hands of mages and priests. The people who use it are just like everyone else, just with magic and are each judged on their own merit. Fearsome monsters offer a chance to protect others from facing them and don't particularly frighten her, similarly the unknown doesn't much bother her as she walks to face it with family at her side.

F: Edges and Flaws
1) What are you especially good at? What sets you apart from the rest of the world? A skill? An unusual knack? A certain flair of style or wit?

Vivianne is a fair hand at cooking the meals while camping, otherwise she doesn't have many truly unusual skills or knacks and dresses in a simple, conservative style.

2) What flaws do you have? Bad habits? Obsessions? Terrible (or embarrassing) secrets?

Some might see the lack of deception as a flaw, or her rigid adherence to law.. she has no real secrets preferring to be honest if people dare to ask her questions. She is obsessed with her sister though, she will often see that her sister is cared for before she herself is.

3) Do you have any enemies? How much trouble do those conflicts cause you?

Not that she is aware of, she's lived a peaceful life thus far, really, and hasn't had a chance to make enemies.

G: Likes and Dislikes
1) What do you love? (People? Places? Creatures? Kinds of Food? Activities? Subjects?)

Family above all, Her father and her sister are the most loved things in her life, She's fond of fruit, puzzles and peace as well.

2) What do you hate? How do you typically react to these hated things?

Cruelty for the sake of itself, which she usually attempts to intervene in, those that break the laws and get away with it.. those she'd attempt to turn into the proper authorities if at all possible.

3) What do you fear? What is your worst nightmare?

Losing family, Seeing Bree's life end would be the thing that would haunt nightmares if she had them. She knows life is finite, that eventually her family will fade but she fears being alone in this world.

H: Miscellaneous
1) Describe your first encounter with a nonhuman monster. (Not counting player races, animals, etc that you grew up with, but feel free to mention them too)

Traveling with her father and sister Vivianne had a chance to see many nonhuman monsters but hasn't been actually exposed to fighting one yet, her skills are all gained from training, guidance in safe situations.

2) If you are a spellcaster, describe your first experience with using magic. What were the circumstances? Were you expecting it?

Not a spellcaster

3) If you have an animal companion or familiar, describe how you acquired it. Describe this ally's personality, and its attitude towards you. (Loyal unto death, mischievous, lazy, etc)

No companion

4) If you have any unusual possessions, describe how you acquired them. Is their value practical, monetary, sentimental or some combination of these?

5) Please describe your characters general background, this may be any length you wish, but at least one paragraph. You may use any or all of the information above, or new information not covered. (Encouraged)

Vivianne was born into a happy family, A noble paladin as a father, an older sister she loves and adores and a mother she loved and now misses dearly. Most of her childhood was spent without her mother, in the company of her father and sister traveling the world on the adventures of a paladin. She learned at his knee the differences between right and wrong, to stand up for her beliefs and how to wield a weapon. Once the basics of training had been given she and her sister, Bree, altered the basics between themselves, not wanting to follow in the exact same path as her father she adapted her stance, her techniques, often by trial and error to stand at her sisters side through everything. When she reached adulthood she and her sister decided it was time to leave the nest, bidding a fond farewell to the father she's ever so close to, the quiet young woman followed her sister to Avalon. The hope in the city of Bridges is to prove themselves, lend aid where they can and maybe.. just maybe find where their mother went. The last seems unlikly but blood is thicker than water, somehow they'll find a way.
