Divine Challenge
Paladin Feature
You boldly confront a nearby enemy, searing it with divine light if it ignores your challenge.
At-Will ✦ Divine, Radiant
Minor Action Close burst 5
Target: One creature in burst
Effect: You mark the target. The target remains marked until you use this power against another target, or if you fail to engage the target (see below). A creature can be subject to only one mark at a time. A new mark supersedes a mark that was already in place.
While a target is marked, it takes a –2 penalty to attack rolls for any attack that doesn’t include you as a target. Also, it takes radiant damage equal to 3 + your Charisma modifier the first time it makes an attack that doesn’t include you as a target before the start of your next turn. The damage increases to 6 + your Charisma modifier at 11th level, and to 9 + your Charisma modifier at 21st level.
On your turn, you must engage the target you challenged or challenge a different target. To engage the target, you must either attack it or end your turn adjacent to it. If none of these events occur by the end of your turn, the marked condition ends and you can’t use divine challenge on your next turn.
You can use divine challenge once per turn.
Special: Even though this ability is called a challenge, it
doesn’t rely on the intelligence or language ability of the target. It’s a magical compulsion that affects the creature’s behavior, regardless of the creature’s nature. You can’t place a divine challenge on a creature that is already affected by your or another character’s divine challenge.

Ioun, the god of knowledge (study and learning)

I'm cheerful in social interactions
I'm enthusiastically optimistic, until things start to go wrong. When I lose control of a situation, I have a panic attack.
I'm gullibly trusting

I'm commanding at decision point
I'm scrupulous about following rules
I'm kindly empathetic

I'm brave in dire straights
I freeze and panic when facing setbacks
I have skittish nerves

I'm quite strong and charismatic, but don't hold much value on either of those skills. I'm a huge nerd, and hold intellect and wisdom as the most valuable of all traits, but I'm not very smart. I aspire to learn all that I can, and to create lasting friendships.

I shout "By star swirl's beard" whenever I'm shocked. I have a nervous habit of talking to myself.

I'm tall, solid and muscular, around 24 years old, and male. I have purple skin and purple eyes. I have a scar that looks like a star where the sun don't shine. I refuse to talk about where I got it.

I choose to become an adventurer to try and meet other smart adventures and learn from them, as well as to make friends. Ever since I was a young dragonborn, my parents instilled in me the values of knowledge. Knowledge is power, they said, the power to win battles or prevent them, the power to save lives, the power to take them. I threw myself into study, spending every waking moment with my nose stuck in some dusty old tome. My parents eventually moved me into a library, at my request, and learning became more than an obsession, it became my very essence. Waking moments no longer enough, I dreamt of books and knowledge, fire and power, and soon, I dreamt of Ioun.

Ioun is the god of knowledge. I began to have visions of him in my sleep by my 14th year. I had never seen any figure more noble, more beautiful, more powerful. I began to worship him, to say prayers before studying periods began, and after they ended. It clearly wasn't enough, as I continued to struggle with learning. No matter how hard I tried, no matter how much time I spent, the words drifted in through one ear and out the other. They felt like molasses running through my head. Was I simple incapable of being smart? Incapable of using knowledge to my advantage?

My efforts redoubled. My worship of Ioun become more and more fervent, in the hopes that one day he would grant me a gift I'd come to realize was even more important than knowledge, the gift of comprehension, of understanding. I started to manage the logistics of the library, guiding patrons through our only haven of knowledge amongst a sea of flame. Stocking books, organizing by author or topic, I saw these menial tasks as ways to show how devoted I truly was. By my 18th year, I was promoted to the head librarian.

I had become huge, my muscles bulged and moving stacks of books larger than me took no more effort than lifting a flower. Other dragonborn drifted through the library, and I talked with them. We talked about stars and gods, about the astral sea and the elemental plane, about of the proper care and maintenance of a gnome. We talked about seasons and fruits, about lawncare and weaponry(which seem to me to be very nearly the same), and about dungeons and dragons. My parents call me charismatic, and perhaps I am, but perhaps all that means is the desire to hear what other people have to say. I've found that my thirst for information isn't that typical among my people, and that most are far more comfortable talking about themselves or what they know then they are learning something new.

One day everything changed. The head scholar Lorroth visited my library, and I was lucky enough to spend hours conversing with him. It felt like weeks. He shared with me a wisdom that cannot be stored in any manuscript, knowledge with feelings and emotions interlaced and connected like worms in an apple. Lorroth made a simple suggestion that I had never reached, that the world itself contains the budding fruit of untamed knowledge just waiting to be picked. A library, the entire collection of knowledge accumulated by my people over hundreds, even thousands of years, was no longer enough. I needed to go out into the world and find new knowledge for myself, to spread the word of Ioun, and to share some of his knowledge with others. This was the greatest day of my life.

My mind made up, I started gathering the tools and equipment I would need to survive out there on my own. While my endless efforts had born little fruit in the library, I WAS strong. I'm not really sure how I got so strong, perhaps it was carrying all of those books. I would use that physical strength to protect myself and my allies in the search for knowledge. I used some of the money I had saved up to purchase a Standard adventurer's kit, and I dusted off the old dwarfen armor my father had gifted to me upon my 21st nameday. A bastard sword, light shield, and a javelin made up the rest of my adventuring supplies, all purchased.


I'm a self taught paladin. I've lived a sheltered life, and faced no real hardships yet. The worst event was being teased by the other dragon born for being a big, dumb brute. I'm terrified of attractive women, and can't look them in the eye or speak coherently with them.
