Being one of the lucky backers of this game I have my PDF and have started a community on G+. In fact, I think within a couple of weeks I will be running a game of this fantastic new RPG. In preparation I am making some NPC’s to share and this is the first.
Firstly to the legalese. I am a crap artist and there was a request to provide images so my mate (all round good guy and Rite Publisher genius +Steve Russell ) went searching for some good art for me to use under the Creative Commons license.
Turadok of Tomheer
 |
| Illustration by Luigi Teruel |
The tribe chieftain once told me that on the night I was born on the bridge of the Tomheer that I did not cry. I fought my way from my mothers womb to emerge and look through the large crystal screen that showed our ships trajectory. The inky blackness was reflected in my eyes and that was the day the chieftain knew I would rise and take his place one cycle.
I was always stronger, always faster, always smarter than the others. As we moved through the endless tunnels and corridors of the ship that sailed the seas of the void I would easily remember my paths. I was called on often to find the others that had lost their way chasing me. Had I been chieftain I would have let them starve and die in the bowels of that ship. The tribe does not need the weak bringing them down.
None knew how to pilot the damn ship. Perhaps we never did. The recorded histories suggest we were always here but I am not sure, knowing what I do now. The Tomheer was our provider. Our nurturer, our protector and in the end our doom. Nowhere in the ship was there to be found a door. There were many tribes in the various levels and I knew them all at one stage or another and in my travels there was never a door, except once. there was no portal to the outside. No entry or exit that could be called on. There was only one transparent section on the bridge. The area of our tribes domain. We travelled through the void. No star or planet was visible. Just darkness. Swirling patches of darkness that sometimes felt like it was watching you.
It was the day of my ascension. My rise to manhood. I awoke and knew instantly that there was something amiss. First, I could not hear the steady drone of the engines. It is funny that you would miss such a thing for I had not really registered them before. But their absence was deafening. it was perhaps them stopping that awoke me. Also, there was pure darkness. The Tomheer was always awash in electric lighting but today not even a simple warning light was lit and I may as well have closed my eyes for the good that they did me.
I called to my father and mother but all that responded to me was the echo of my voice off the walls of the cavernous bridge. I knew it immediately. I was alone.
My memory of the layout of the ship served me well in that month that not a single light shone. I moved from tribe to tribe space to find that not only had my tribe vanished, but I was the only one left on the ship of my race. But I was not truly alone. In the darkness creatures of the void stalked me at every turn. It was a blessing in a way for without the power the Tomheer was my worst enemy. It could not provide for me. As I fought these monsters in the dark, their raw flesh succoured me through the long cold dark.
I used my knowledge of the ship. Found batteries and engineered pieces of technology together so I could make my armour. It would sustain me and protect me through this hell. As the outer regions of the ship became colder the monsters became more active and I had to fight for every breath of life. I knew that I must head to the power source at the centre of the ship. It was only there that there would be warmth enough to keep me alive and also perhaps an answer to this whole mystery.
It took me the better part of a month to make it there. Battles slowed me, but the ship was almost the size of an entire planet so the journey was long. The horrors I endured there showed me that I had the strength to face any challenge. But the challenge that presented to me at the power source perplexed me.
I had been here before. Several times. But this time something blocked the entrance. The lights on my armour illuminated it enough for me to see it. Some kind of barrier had closed off the space between myself and the irthidium core of the Tomheem. I laugh now that I thought it so strange knowing what I have become. But it was a door. The first I had ever seen and it was waiting for me.
It was a beautiful door. Made of a strange alloy that shimmered blues and purples in the light from my armour. It also had words on it, though I did not know then how to read them I believe from memory that they warned me of the illness that could be contracted without care. I sat for a full day trying to make sense out of this thing that I had never seen. No monster came near and it seemed to baffle me. All I really needed to do was reach out and touch the pressure sensor and it would have opened I am sure but there seemed something a little more to this.
As I sat there, I heard voices within me. They spoke of things that I had never thought of. Concepts as alien to me as I am to you but as they uttered them to me, as their whispers caressed my inner ear I knew the truth of their meaning instantaneously.
I reached out and said a word that they had taught me. I gestured precisely as I knew I must and the door disappeared back into the wall. I had learnt the secrets of the doors and mastered them. The doors were now mine to command though I did not fully understand that then.
What I saw beyond that door, well, that is another story all together.
