I always liked the idea of Ylder roming the dark halls of towers and dungeons trying to find his sister and trying as he will to get his sister back from the demon that she joined. she blows him off shattering his innocence of her. Than being lost figures out that he doesn't need her and than becomes (because of his fighter and rogueness)becomes a hero of sorts and kills his sister.Well I think you know were I'm going with this.
That would indeed be a great tragedy. Mmm . . . Erik like tragedy . . .

Sounds like it'd be a sad tale.
That it does . . . making it just that much more possible for a writer like me!
And I do, actually, already have a plan for what goes on in the lives of each of my characters. Subject to change, of course, but a plan nonetheless!

Well that just my idea but I'm sure you'll pull it off Eric.I just thought Ylder would make a good anti-hero/demon and undead/wizard/acult hunter so to speak. From your other books I'm told you keep it well not so dark, as dim in your stories so I thought my idea would interst you. I have more to the story but I won't ramble. Looking forward to your next book and your other not Realms stuff too.

For all who are interested in this story--in particular how its elements relate to potential adventures--keep your eyes peeled!
More soon.
Cheers
Consider me intrigued.

Down at the bottom of the page, you'll find a writeup of Yldar and Cythara, updated to 1375.
You'll notice Yldar varies quite a bit from how I've described him. This is because, well, this build fits him better and is just, well, all around better. :D

I loved reading the backstory for the Nathalan siblings. Thanks for sharing!

Great work guys! I especially love all the little tidbits about Graz'zt and the Cult. I'll definitely be looking out for any opportunities to use this material in my campaigns.

I'm impressed. This is good work. Thanks to Tom and Erik.
Now, what else can we expect from you both?
