Looking for an evil god, Choose shar! ;)

<bump>Convert an existing morally flexible character. Create a new one. We live in the End Days and Her time is at hand.</bump>

We have the Weave corrupted and dying whilst the Shadow-weave is untouched. We risk planar collapse and the utter destruction of one of Selune's most cherished bits of creation, the Prime Material Plane.
Let's get it On!

Yep This was one of those things that the more I read lords of darkness and a few other things, I discovered more information about. The Dark Moon are a very strict, and exact, sect that requires strict obedience to thier leveling code amongst other things.
It is also not the only way to be a sharran monk. One could easily be a sharran, be a monk, and still be dedicated enough to do all the same things a Dark Moon does, but they just wouldn't be part of that Order.
-
I don't knowโฆ the description in some of the source material indicated that Sharran monks were required to multiclass in this way (join their order of the Dark Moon).
But I suppose you could be part of another order (Long Death, i. e.) and feel a close connection to Shar. Or as you suggested, Oreth, not be part of any order. But whether that's to Shar's likings or not, is another matter.... that doesn't really bother a true monk?
-
Unless they choose not to multiclass at all, which is an option.

@a1b9a4f2d2=Zyphlin:
I will try to get some of the information out of the Lords of Darkness about the dark moon monks. They are really a neat organization.
They are primarily a Monk/Sorc order, though straight monks could join it as well. They are the "martial" wing of the church of shar. They are generally her assassins, her spies, her informants and hitmen. They travel the lands at her or her clergies request, using thier skills to inflict or gain vengence for losses given and search for secrets.
Much like shar, they focus on the unseen and the darkness. Most likely their fighting style would be filled with dirty tactics, feints, misdirection, and other such tactics to create a very intricate and hard to read style.
Just to get back on topicโฆ
... but shouldn't Sharran Monks be the most screwed of the monks? Their order requires them to have sorceror and monk within two levels of each other. Thus, a level 3 has to be a monk 2/sorc 1 or a monk 1/sorc 2?

Meh, the icelace is rped as a sea, with boat access. Who cares, rp world, rp fun.
I have nothing against rping icelace as something with boat access and even flourishing trade-routes but rping it as a "sea" is just stupid.
:roll: :stupid:
Or should we just save the insults IG?
Personally, I think Icelace is big enough to warrant several trade routes which in turn should bring some sort of piracy into the picture as well. And as far as I know, there's no deity of lakes in Faerun, so why shouldn't Umberlee and her servants be interested in Icelace as well?
:2c:
No reason whatever. I think it's good fun to have umberlants in Peltarch and it fits in really well. And it's big enough to warrant as many trade-routes as you can think of and where there are trade-routes there are pirates.
my point: it's more of a big lake than a sea

Like he said!
Bah! Umberlee is the path and true way.
We're in narfell, there aren't any seas within leagues Actually Auril would be the most appropriate evilness in this area starts rolling an auril-worshipping mage who destroys his enemies with ray of frost

I've had a sharran monk (going to multiclass as sorc) for some time now.
-
As enticing as it sounds, I have enough trouble with the 2 characters I have now, but it's a good idea, sounds fun.
-
Heh. I'll be very honest with everyone in what I'd love to see in a perfect world.
I would love to see 3-5 Warrior Types join with us as "Templar's". Either new characters, or perhaps already standing characters that wouldn't mind RPing out conversion as Shar as thier main patron. No problems with prayers to other gods, as long as Shar is the main one you would hold faith to. Neutal or Evil alignment works.
3-5 Monks of the Dark Moon. We have one currently. This could be straight monks, Monk/sorcs, or monk/rogues would all be fun. Much as the same at tome
Any number of Mages or Clerics, magic users bascally. Here would prefer having shar as your main diety and not many others at all. She is a natural fit for any mage with a darker side to them.
4-6 Rogues or Rangers. We have one already, and can always use more Great for sneaky characters.
That would be ideal and I'm sure a ton of fun. Probably never happen but who knows lol
Also, anyone thinking they wouldn't mind to have thier character possibly convertโฆlet me know, and we can RP it out. I try not to convert unless someone is fine with it OOCly, so if you're up for possibly converting and want to RP it out, shoot me a PM
-
I concur, in a time where Bane is the new bread and butter, Shar is a wonderful villainess who tends to get overlooked by many when deciding the nefarious tendancies of their characters. The most cunning, the most devious many might argue.
-
Never to late to convert
