Gold: 2,140

Abilities: 3.5 AC - 45 Mana
Basic Magic (Necromancy):

Magic Bolt: (Speed Priority 3+4) =-=-2-=-= 5 mana: A Projectile energy of kinetic force

Energy bolt:(Speed Priority 3+4) =-=-3-=-= Cost 10 You can throw a powerful bolt of energy much like a magic bolt. (Requires both Hands)

Necromancy:

Curse Bolt: (Speed Priority 3) (-X-3-X-) 20+Curse's Mana mana: A Bolt that's given a curse, creating a powerful attack

Minor Rot Curse: (Priority 5) (-X-3.5-X-) 10 Mana: A Rotting Curse that decays an enemy overtime.

Cursed Stricken: (Priority 6) (-X-4-X-) 30 mana: A curse that rots the stricken from the inside out and then raises them as undead before they fully rot out.

Cursed Songs:

Pyretic Fire: (P 2X: Two turns of priority 6) (-X-X-X-) 40 Mana: A complex fire spell that you yourself barely understand. It bases itself off of a plague of sorts that then bursts aflame. It infects a target but then can spread by touch before they eventually die from either the curse, cure themselves, or blow up.

Raise Amass: (P 2X: Two turns of P6) (-X-X-X-) 50 mana: You raise a mass of bodies to do your bidding. Raising the amount of bodies eventually collapses the spell requiring 20 more mana for every one past 3 to keep the spell stable. If it's not paid the bodies have a chance of either decaying, turning on your, or the spell backfiring.

Perks:

Cursed Self: Your studies into necromancy have brought on a slight curse so now that every time you utilize necromantic mana you have a chance of being curse or to curse someone. (This stacks with other curses.)

Blood Stench: You have a way with bodies and can destroy one to replenish your mana.

Necromantic Mana: You can Drain your own health to fuel your spells effectively giving yourself 40 extra mana that goes down as your own health does however and when it reaches zero you reach critical health.

Curse Drain: You can remove smaller curses from yourself between combats by a ritual of bloodletting and releasing excess mana. Heavier curses will require further research into the specific curse.

Knowledge: Curses, Undead, and Decay.

Skills: Talent in speaking, performing, & deception are all within Mr. Alighieri's repertoire. He has also practiced with a dagger, though he is hardly much to speak of with a blade. There is, however, a skill he possesses that very few could tell. Locke has trained extensively in the subtle arts of necromancy. With the right sequence of notes on his flute & proper thought, Locke can raise a fallen being, rally his allies, sow a plague, or inspire terror.

Bio: Locke was born twisted in the very womb for his mother was, unbeknownst to his father (mayor of their little village), a hedge witch that communed with spirits dark & foul to create a child surpassing her in skill. She succeeded. She died giving birth to a child destined to reach power. Locke was guided by devils to put on a facade of kindness lest those about him be warned of his nature. His father adored him & funded a quality education for the poisonous young lad. When he requested bardic & magical training his father thought nothing of it for his son was a model. As he learnt singing & dancing alongside spells & sorcery, Locke blended the two with necromancy to form a twisted sort of magic unthought of before or since. Upon his coming-of-age festival, Locke received a beautiful mahogany flute from his loving father. He thanked the man for the gift then summoned an eldritch fire in which he charred the fine piece of craftmanship as black as his soul. The tainted instrument was then used to perform a twisted melody, a plague song. The entire village save his father was killed. The man that sired Locke was instead hobbled, crippled, & aged. Locke helped his dear father, nearly catatonic with grief & confusion, from the rotten ground & plunged his dagger into the man's heart, smiling all the while. With this atrocity, Locke's education was complete & he has been roaming that land posing as a simple kindly bard, misery following in his wake. It is rumored that he is looking for a dark piece of knowledge known only to the most ancient & foul beings...
