RE: TVC - Sign-Up Thread
Name - Njal Stormcaller
Age - 40ish
Race: Human Norscan
Place of Birth: A village in Norsca
Hair/beard color: Fiery Red
Height - 7'6"
Description - Njal is a large man with an impressive mane of hair and a full grown beard.
He is massive, and strongly built, as are most men of Norsca. He has large armor, that fits to
his build, and a huge axe and staff.
Equipment - The Staff of Storms - A gift from his father before he died, it amplifies his
magic abilities. It is the source of most of his magical powers.
The Axe of Morkai - Once an unholy Axe of Khorne, Njal killed the champion that owned it
and took it, using his superior magic to cleanse it of its chaotic influence. He adopted the name of the
deathwolf his tribe believed in for the axe. While not retaining its old tendancy to guide itself to the enemy's neck, it does increase his strength and skill in close combat,
allowing him to fight the toughest and most skilled of enemies and win.
The Armor of Ice - Also taken and cleansed from the champion he killed, this armor is extremely tough,
as well as making Njal nigh impervious to Cold.
Nightwing - Nightwing is a familiar that takes the form of a raven. It aids him by warning him of
impending ambushes and such.
Brief History - Born to the chief sorcerer of a Norscan tribe dedicated to chaos, Njal was picked
by the Chaos Gods themselves to be groomed into an excellent champion. While he was quickly rising
in his sorcerous power, it became clear that he would be no ordinary sorcerer. He was built as strong as
stronger and tougher than the largest of warriors in the tribe, and quickly rose to glory.
However, he saw the horrors that chaos caused, and deep inside, no matter how he tried to fight it,
he knew that following Chaos was wrong. After one particular raid against an Empire town, Njal
saw his own father die at the hands of a Warrior Priest of Sigmar, protecting defenceless children.
After he watched marauders slaughter the priest and the children, something inside him snapped.
He took up his father's staff and summoned a massive storm, one strong enough to rip the marauders
to shreds and stop the raging fires in the town. Walking through the storm, Njal came to the champion,
the leader of his tribe, and summoned more might than ever before. Willing his storm on, he
cast the champion to the ground with his storm, and leapt on the champion, holding his axe down
and tearing the helmet from his head. Staring into the face of his once leader, he let out a roar
of defiance and ripped the champion's throat out. Donning his Armor and taking up his sword,
Njal aided the rest of the villiagers in burying the dead, and set on his way.
Strengths - Extremely powerful wizard(level 3), also very strong and skilled in close combat (high hero level)
Weaknesses - Flies into a rage when fighting Chaos, this could cause him to make a fatal error. His when his staff is not on him his magic drops down to level 1
