The Vampire Hunter Squad

Post by Lance »

The VHS are associates of lance or at least characters I plan on introducing, here goes:

Typically the Children of the Night have their share of enemies. Hundreds of people claim the title "Vampire Hunter" but few are as highly skilled and dangerous as the Vampire Hunter Squad. They are five individuals who trough excellent teamwork and individual skills have managed to vanquish just about every vampire in their way. It would be wrong to call them a group of adventurers because their skills are only focused on battling the undead. They are rather a well-oiled machine of destruction.
The VHS was formed five years ago by Lord Aric Dawnstrider, a paladin in the service of Lathander. The entire squad is dedicated to Lathander since they find the coming of the morning as a fitting symbol for the imminent destruction of the vampires. Also, the Morninglord encourages the destruction of such creatures. The members of the squad are:

[b:1kjlb6tj]Lord Aric Dawnstrider:[/b:1kjlb6tj]
[b:1kjlb6tj]Race:[/b:1kjlb6tj] Human (Silverymoon)
[b:1kjlb6tj]Class:[/b:1kjlb6tj] Paladin/Master of Radiance(from Libris Mortis)
[b:1kjlb6tj]Age:[/b:1kjlb6tj] 26
[b:1kjlb6tj]Alignment:[/b:1kjlb6tj] Lawful Good
[b:1kjlb6tj]Info:[/b:1kjlb6tj] Aric founded the entire squad five years ago after suffering greatly at the hand of a powerful vampire lord. After ruining the vampire's plans Aric's entire family was slaughtered by its minions, leaving the paladin in despair. That day he swore an oath to destroy every vampire he could find and try to end the foul curse which turns humans into monsters. He has not yet been successful but he has certainly thinned the ranks of the undead and no one is more knowledgeable in vampirism than he.

[b:1kjlb6tj]Gemnir Doomhammer[/b:1kjlb6tj]
[b:1kjlb6tj]Race:[/b:1kjlb6tj] Shield Dwarf
[b:1kjlb6tj]Class:[/b:1kjlb6tj] Ranger/Hunter of the Dead (from Complete Warrior)
[b:1kjlb6tj]Age:[/b:1kjlb6tj] ??
[b:1kjlb6tj]Alignment:[/b:1kjlb6tj] Neutral Good
[b:1kjlb6tj]Info:[/b:1kjlb6tj] Gemnir's clan was victimized by a plauge of vampires and Gemnir's family was a few of those struck. Ending up a bitter and vengeful man Gemnir traveled all over Faerun, tracking vampires to their lairs and slaying them. He caught Aric's attention and was persuaded by the paladin into putting his exceptional tracking and fighting skills into a more worthy cause than individual vengance. Since then Gemnir has served as the squad's tracker, finding several "untracable" vampires.

[b:1kjlb6tj]Naphaniel Frost[/b:1kjlb6tj]
[b:1kjlb6tj]Race:[/b:1kjlb6tj] Human (waterdeep)
[b:1kjlb6tj]Class:[/b:1kjlb6tj] Cleric/Morninglord of Lathander
[b:1kjlb6tj]Age:[/b:1kjlb6tj] 32
[b:1kjlb6tj]Alignment:[/b:1kjlb6tj] Neutral Good
[b:1kjlb6tj]Info:[/b:1kjlb6tj] Naphaniel was ordered from the highest source (by a vision from Lathander himself) to join the squad and aid its efforts in liberating the north from vampirism. His considerable spellcasting abilities and turning powers has greatly aided the group's cause. Naphaniel sees the destruction of the vampires as an necessary thing but he has brought a new aspect into the group:mercy. each vampire is given the choice into being restored to humanity, a choice most vampires reject. But since Naphaniel joined the group several vampires has repented and been restored, somehting that greatly pleases the Morninglord.

[b:1kjlb6tj]Lindain & Lindaina Shadowmoon[/b:1kjlb6tj]
[b:1kjlb6tj]Race:[/b:1kjlb6tj] Moon elves
[b:1kjlb6tj]Class:[/b:1kjlb6tj] Druid/Master of Radiance(both)
[b:1kjlb6tj]Age:[/b:1kjlb6tj] 178
[b:1kjlb6tj]Alignment:[/b:1kjlb6tj] Neutral Good
[b:1kjlb6tj]Info:[/b:1kjlb6tj] The elven twins were both victims to vampirism. A greater vampire let loose his spawn on a small elven village in order to increase his servant. Lindain and Lindaina were hidden in a cellar and escaped destruction. They do not hate vampire but see them as unnatural suffering creatures which must be liberated for their own good. The twins are excellently coordinated, always fighting together and at the same time. Aric found them after investigating rumours about vampires being systematically routed from the High Forest. Now their excellent abilities serve the squad.
