Taristan Krows, Lousy Paladin of some upjumped lizard god

[Silvermoon_Dervish]

Since it's the seasonal flavor to post late, out of date obituaries, I may as well post one for my last long-lived PC in a long time.


Taristan Krows was a sort of return to basics PC for me. Originally intended to be little more than a quest crusher against all the evil things outside Sanctuary, he found himself getting entangled with politics at the behest of friends and loved ones at every other turn. Most of his friends would die one by one, the most notable being one Mainanta Notten for whom he was a white knight in many senses of the term. His turn from idealistic zealot into vindicative knight on the edge of damnation was one that would rear its ugly head several times over his active life with many negative consequences; at one point he was addicted to substance, he was maimed during the Witch's Wheel events, he would pick fights with would-be allies against the tyranny of the Spellguard over the murder of his Watcher and Warder friends.. And ultimately his token of esteem for Notten and his keepsake of the Council of Dragons would be stolen from him. Past and present taken away, he finally broke under pressure and saw to his own demise fighting the forces of Traensyr (at level 5, so unfortunately undramatic).


I don't have screenshots, as playing him was becoming a chore and I tend to erase my screenshots regularly nowadays. That said, much of the DM loot he acquired overtime from several sources is still in circulation and in the hands of people to do as they will. Enjoy the power boost fellows!


And it would've been even greater if someone had agreed to be his apprentice, hah!

I had many good times in my back-and-forths with the Dragon-slave Taristan Krow.  Way to stick with LG for so long!

Long-term LG PCs are always appreciated, and Krows made the server a better place. Well done.
