Well I'll just write it here. So I never noticed this post from forever ago and I realized that Denn and Lydahn have a very similar background. Denn also has a Sea Wolf mother and a Hellsguard father, but takes after her father (which is why she appears as a Hellsguard).Â
I had it written that her mother died during child birth, but I always wanted this to not be true and she was simply told this before her mother left. Now her father was in and out of her life as he was a mercenary and was never really around to take care of her. This could be an excuse as well for having him visit Lydahn, his other child? Denn was mostly raised by her grandfather in a cabin out in the middle of nowhere in Coerthas. This is where I suppose the stories from both of our characters get wonky because her grandfather played a very large and important role in her life so he kind of has to be there. I'm not sure what you have written about Lydahn's grandfather yet.Â
Anyway her father ended up never returning for some years and her grandfather died of old age and so Denn set out into the world. I had her recently do a story arc where she found out what happened to her father, he died while protecting a town from pieste's and was petrified in the process, so now he is just a statue. This went into Denn retrieving her fathers axe and she has been retraining as a warrior secretly (as she is only known as being a pugilist IC).
Now I think I can bend some things and throw in stuff about the Dragonheart (Denn would probably not have this trait, maybe she has taken more after her mother seeing as the sea cries out to her and she secretly wants to be a pirate and not a mercenary like her father and grandfather and their fathers). I suppose the only thing I am saying is that the grandfather thing might be the hardest part to work around. If you think this can work let me know.
I was trying to poke you in game about it but you and your dungeons >.o and now I have to go to work. Sorry if this is all over the place. Trying to type it up quickly as I only have like 3 mins left before I have to leave lol
Edit: I suppose I should add that Denn is 28
Heyas chica! Yeah you had caught me when I went to help a friend do a HM primal, sorry about that! ^^; Anywho, this is in case I don't see you in game tonight.
The little bit you've told me so far on your char looks fairly interesting. The only parts I can see here that might be an issue would be the grandfather thing, which actually wouldn't be too difficult to work out once I explain a bit more on Lydahn and what we can fix up or change possibly, and the manner in which your father died and what happened as a result. I actually just finished a developmental RP with Lydahn and a friend, and it is now at a point where my friend, as Lydahn's current "caretaker" IC, receives from Wyrnzoen in a message, a letter followed by a package which contains her father's weapon, but is not permitted to use it until she can better control her fury as well as the Dragonheart energy inside her. Wyrnzoen gave the weapon to him because he has no knowledge of any relatives who are still alive that could fill that role, and my friend, as Lydahn's caretaker, was the only viable option. I kinda have a way to counteract this conflict with you getting the axe from your father as a pose to Lydahn getting it from Wyrnzoen or my friend through means of a gift, but in order to do it it would have to involve you making some kind of contact with my friend before you meet Lydahn, so as to satisfy the condition that Denn would be the one with the weapon, and not Lydahn. However, before this time, Lydahn had not been using her father's weapon.
I suppose I don't have a problem with the manner of her father's death but we'll talk about that later. Actually, now that I'm thinking about it, perhaps the axe Denn took was not his ACTUAL axe, and rather that, the axe Lydahn is expected to receive is the one he fought with during his time as a mercenary, as well as the Battle of Carteneau.
I think for me the biggest concern will be the names. To start, Lydahn Falahann isn't her actual name, but rather it was given to her by the people who opted to take care of her when she was born into an orphaned life in Coerthas. That said her real name is unknown, but her birth mother's full name is Koenainghil Lihtleitawyb if I remember correctly. However, I'd be willing to make changes if Denn's last name belongs to her mother. I'm kinda already set on her father's and grandfather's names so I'm a little iffy about changing theirs; their names are based on their abilities and the kind of people they were, and Lydahn's real name, takes after her parent's names. However I'm still deciding on whether that should be her real name or not. I wouldn't want there to be two mothers going on here cause to me it would kind of sully the sanctity of her family here. lol I know that sounds weird but yeah, we can talk about it sometime and see what we can do about the family ties thing.
Obviously Lydahn's not gonna have ANY recollection about a sister in her life, especially considering she doesn't even know her real name yet, but I think that would be an interesting twist to have in the near future once we sort everything out, it's kinda exciting! However, as of now she's been recuperating at the basement of the Marauder's Guild since the last time she spent with her caretaker, so if you wanna set up a time when the two meet, we can do that. If you want that time to be ASAP, you're gonna have to think of a reason she would go down to the basement of the Marauder's Guild lol.
I should probably mention this too but, due to the Dragonheart she's still suffering from side effects from it (i.e. memory loss, speech impediments), so yeah. Well I just wanted to write all this out for you in case I don't see you in game anytime soon. Whatever questions you may have we can discuss in-game. I apologize again if I wasn't able to reach ya! >.< I was so focused on trying to get my Daystar and I wound up capping at 709, but now it should be reset =]
