[Set]Latoksinned(DarkDecay) /Ser Vincenzo De Merdici (Bruno Carbone)/Special Background

Puffy

1). Human/Rouge/Ranger/CN/4/Ser Vincenzo De Merdici (Bruno Carbone)
2). Apping for Special background and (Detailed below) and background items (Detailed below)
3). Ser Vincenzo De Merdici was a Sembian Cavaliere (Knight) known far and wide for his glorious mustache and incredibly eccentric demeanor. Bruno Carbone was a second rate bandit looking for a new life. While Ser Vincenzo rode for Arabel with orders assigning him to the embassy in Arabel, Bruno would take part in a raid on their entourage that left him the only survivor. Having a similarly epic mustache himself, he seized his opportunity, donning the knights bloodstained equipment and taking his personal effects and riding to Arabel.

a. The character will be Bruno pretending to be Merdici. Apping for damaged Sembian knight armor (Leather or Chain, whichever fits the sembian narrative better), A bloodstained stack of documents identifying him as Ser Vincenzo De Merdici and assigning him to the Sembian embassy, and a chipped signet ring of House Merdici. The idea is no one in Arabel has ever really meet him but his reputation is known but if anyone who actually knew Vincenzo visited Arabel, he’d have to bluff his way out or get got.

b. Bruno will be a commoner bandit, playing a knight, and trying to do things he thinks would be expected of a Sembian knight. The intention is to get him into cartoonish antics with a Monty Python vibe to create comic relief while still participating in realistic plots. All played off by his “Legendary eccentrics”

c.He’ll be easily manipulated into plots that promise glory and riches as he tries to revel in the newfound luxuries. He’ll try to recruit a Cavaliere Squire who he’ll boss around and send on strange errands. Make bold promises of house Merdici, and several other things pushing him closer and closer to getting caught for his antics. He’ll try to play off his “family’s riches and influence” to get favors or special treatment from various faction PCs all as part of elaborate scams to get rich or die trying.

This sounds fun

Puffy

May swap to bard for bluff/performance, he isn't sure yet. Concept is the same, so no issue

Prof. Misclick

Moving to confirmation.

Gear TBA. Whoever comes up with something appropriate please post here for review.

Bard would be better than ranger for the concept.

[10:25 AM] Latok: Hey! Just curious if based on current input if my app looks like a possibility and if yes, if it looks like a few more days thing or a sooner thing.
[10:35 AM] Professor Misclick: It looks very good.
[10:37 AM] Professor Misclick: Just need to come up with appropriate gear. I moved it to confirmation.
[10:37 AM] Professor Misclick: So 24 hours to get our act together, make the gear before final approval.
[10:48 AM] Latok: Not expecting anything potent, mostly just figured it would support his false identity. Also, I told Puffy but I’m probably going to do bard instead since it’s an acting role as much as a bluffing one
[10:48 AM] Latok: But thank you
[10:49 AM] Professor Misclick: Yep!
[10:50 AM] Professor Misclick: It looks like a crazy fun story. Worthy of some neat thematic and pseudo factiony gear.

Good by me!

Strife and Discord

Make the Acid damage vs Elves and vs Half-Elves.
1d4 Acid from the get go is too much imo.
