Bar-Thovett is a non-descript, ordinary looking man , typically looking like a trader, his dark brown hair and eyes offer no clue to his true work, until he choses it. An assassin, a “leg-breaker with skill”, he is for hire by the more ordinary people, a common man (or thug’s), assassin as it were. Since the not-so-poor can’t really afford justice, they hire men like Bar-Thovett to gain vengeance, just or not.
At home in the slums of Tyr, he doesn’t like the “Higher class” areas, and resents and fears nobles and templars. He has a taste for sweet pastries (a rare luxury indeed but one he can sometimes afford), that and a fondness for beer and courtesans are his vices, he doesn’t care much for the gladiator fights as he sees himself as a professional hunter. After each kill he under takes a ritual he believes will ward him from the dead shades of his victims, and thus aids a cleric or templar at times.
Combat: If he thinks a victim is “easy”, he will do away with them in whatever unnoticed, fast method he can carry it out. On more difficult foes, he may hire some thugs to attack the victim and use his abilities to make sure of the kill from nearby. Using his “Up the Walls” ability he often hides on hidden ledges and roofs with his crossbow, using poisoned bolts and Psionic Shot he can despatch most foes easily.
If expecting a dangerous fight he will use Animal Affinity to gain +4 Dex and Str (+2 attacks/melee damage/AC/Ref saves 6PPs), Biofeedback (DR 2/-, 3PPs), Thicken Skin (augmented for +2 AC, 4 PPs), Vigor (augmented for +25 hp. 5PPs), and Chameleon (+10 hide, 1PP) total cost is 19 PPs, and poison his weapons with large Scorpion venom). He’ll use his psionic focus for Psionic Shot or Psionic Fist, whichever is needed, dangerous targets he’d much rather fight from range and height! If possible he’ll get in position to “snipe” an enemy, or he may sneak into their room using Ectoplasmic Form. He can also use Arsenic poison in an enemy’s food/drink before hand using Sleight of Hand to drop it in their meals.

Templars are the clerics of the sorcerer-kings, and also bureaucrats, diplomats, tax inspectors…you name it. They act as civic functionaries, as well as marshals of the army and such like. Thus, most templars are multi-class. This character represents the typical templar you could meet on the street, over seeing the city gates etc. It’s rare to meet a templar without slaves or allies, and they are both arrogant and full of guile, making them dangerous adversaries.
Combat: a templar will order his slaves and servants to shield him, while he uses spells to boost their efforts. Calm Emotions and Hold Person are ideal to quell enraged citizens or slaves. If things are severe he will cast Protection From Evil, Entropic Shield (20% chance missiles and rays miss), Magic Weapon (+1 hit/damage with morningstar) and Detect Magic.
