Kalo Antarus , the benevolent nihilist

Post by SCI-kick »

I'm hoping to use Kalo's recent ordeal with death to bring about some great RP within our gaming group soon ; he is changed man, as he should be.

There will be details on this forthcoming via RP in game and on this thread. But, as for now I will leave you with something as how to imagine Kalo : he's now very sullen and stern of voice, but he still has his dark, nihilistic sense of humor which he loves to use to cause reactions.

As a point of reference, I'd compare him to Beric Donadarrion from Game of Thrones on HBO , both in appearance (no eye patch though) and voice, though Kalo is more humorous. Kalo is also not quite as religious, but that may very well change soon.

Here's some of my favorite Beric clips :

See you all in game, hope this contributes to our story for everyone.

So, since he's a nihilist, does this mean it won't bother him if someone were to, say, "borrow" an item from his inventory?

This is awesome. Glad to see an interesting development with the char!
There's a place I like to hide
A doorway that I run through in the night
Relax child, you were there
But only didn't realize and you were scared
It's a place where you will learn
To face your fears, retrace the years
And ride the whims of your mind

I will also try and get a spirit quest for this set up.

Since we crashed . . . The scene after the Kalo fell again would have went something like this :

He would have awoken from his state as if falling, and would have insisted that he hadn't died, but night fell and he had found a calm, black water river there in that place , which he followed until it came to an onyx bridge. The bridge lead to a tower from which beautiful music was emanating. As he was crossing the bridge, it began to crumble, and right then as he was falling into to that oily river, he startled and opened his eyes to see his companions again in life.

Little more scene setting:

Kalo awakens on hard stone as the sun is setting in the CoD atop the Hall of Heros. He is surrounded by his companions. Marisha is kneeling beside him tears streaming down her face as she sings harmony to the soulful tune that Zylia'i is playing on her violin. Arryn sits near Zylia'a his face a mixture of sadness and joy as Kalo awakes. Bran Holds the Book of the Master now growing dull and lackluster as he finishes an incantation. Murgen, Keryn, Angus and Indigo are all nearby.

Echoing in the back of his mind he can hear the words "Come Back to us" and a smaller voice chiming in with " its stopped raining"

Kalo should've taken them on naked.
