TWO NASTY NPC 's

[Richard Snider]

Any decent campaign is populated with a host of interesting non player
characters. The following is a list of a few I made for my own. If you find
any of them of interest, feel free to use them, comment on them, etc.

RED ALYCE      Deserter, Wanderer, Cursed      Age - 27
S   24(+1)   A  53(+3)  I  17   E   60   C  30(+1)  MDV  9   OCV  11
St  68(+3)   D  52(+3)  W  52   Em  21   Ap   80*   HPV 31   DCV  14
Height  5'11"  Weight  153lbs   HC  49%  CEL  7
NOTE - In my world their are two groups of elite warrior women. Red Alyce
was a member of the second, the Flaming Houris. Members of this group are
worshippers of Shamshiel and servants of the Seirim. Both military prowess
and courtesan duties are required of them. She deserted rather than accept
the second part of her duty. The Houris, with divine aid, cursed her.
CURSE - Involuntary Sexual Charisma MEL13/EL7 . Any man who gets a good
look at her has a chance to be affected when she is seen. If affected, he
will have a burning NEED to have her sexually.
* A normal man who sees her sees her appearance as 160. If he is unworthy
in some way, diseased, evil, perverted, etc, he sees an appearance of 320.
A part of her curse is a Geas against mentioning it to anyone. Is she does
so, experiences a 12 hour blackout that it always most active and
humiliating. If she hears anyone mention her curse, the Geas requires her
to kill both the speaker and, if not her, the person he told.
SPECIAL - If she stays in one place more than three days, the curse
teleports her and her possessions 240 miles in a random direction. She
always arrives naked and unharmed with her possessions around her.
ENCOUNTERED - She will be encountered wearing a cowled robe in the city. If
in the wild, is mounted, armed and carrying a shield. Rarely, in the city,
(10%) chance, a mob that is in need of her is encountered. She will be in
it somewhere. Otherwise, is found on the street, in hotel or in a casino.

CURE - The curse will be broken when she falls passionately in love and
bears the child of a man who is not affected by the curse AND who defeats
her in battle without the use of magic of any kind. (The child of that
union will be a red-haired girl with 2 Special attributes and the mark of
Shamshiel on her inner left thigh.)
APPEARANCE NOTES - Redhead (as all flaming houris must be), scar marred
brand on inner right thigh (Houri brand. all members have them).

COLONEL ALTON KHANGUL - Cerulean Notable, Demon Hunter    Age - 36
S   60(+3)  A  52(+3)   I  30  E  10  C  80(+4)  MDV 8(16)  OCV 13  DTV -6

CURSE - Actions in duty offended a Duke of Chaos. That power cursed him
with the face of a Nergali and granted him the power to sense the presence
of demons (MEL10/EL5 range 6 miles). Uncontrollable Battle Fury in combat
against Demons.
SPECIAL - Double MDV applies against Chaos magic or poison. Is very
sensitive about his appearance. Also loves to sing and has a voice worse
than any frog. Extremely short tempered over any negative comments about
either.
ENCOUNTER - Generally always in armor. In wild is mounted. Elsewhere,
hunting, resting or drowning sorrows in tavern.
CURE - The curse will end when he slays the demon whose face he is wearing.
That demon is a ward demon in the City of the Dead, a 2x normal size
Nergali. He has been seeking it for the last nine years.
