Finally getting around to doing Kophyn Wistnel's request for the Seekers of the Dawn in Myth Drannor.
I have no problems with working on them regardless of them being alive or dead, but do like to generally give a status of said NPC (if dead or presumed dead).
Regarding the events in the Last Mythal series, I think we can safely assume that they have all been killed by the Daemonfey? or should I just list them all as presumed dead?

I never liked to assume anything like that where the FR is concerned. I just finished reading Final Gate, and the Seekers of Dawn weren't mentioned anywhere whatsoever--for better or for worse. However, I don't think that means we can just assume they are all dead.
That novel left a lot of gaps wide open. |

Ah, yes. As usual in that trilogy, the Seekers of Dawn are dealt with a throwaway line that is easily forgotten.
Can't have them interfering with Seiveril's "heroism", now can we?  |

Aye,
But it doesn't say which ones did and so that's why I said I believe they are. |

Okay...
For my list I have the following:
Abbess Alaecathra Shuinrond: Female Human Clr16
Prior Gundlar Ironcrown: Male Human Clr14
Sub-Prior Baerant Telcharr: Male Human Clr12
Cellarer Szuldas Andlath: Male Human Clr9 (Does anyone know what a Cellarer is?)
Danreth Tallathern: Male Human Clr8
Sister Shandel Iribar: Female Human Clr6
Sister Jathalaera Sire: Female Human Clr4
Sister Arleera Landreth: Female Human Clr4
Unless someone has suggestions for a diffrent human sub-race, I'll be going with Chondathan for most of them, since they do seem to be the most common in the Cormyr, Dalelands, Moonsea, and Sembia regions. Which will also be the regions I'll use for them.
With Danreth Tallathern (Tethyrian Human) being from the Dragoncoast, since he was at Westgate before.
Anyone have any suggestions for Prestige Classes (if any) for them?
I am thinking of giving Abbess Alaecathra Shuinrond levels in the Morninglord of Lathander prestige class, with the rest being straight cleric, with Sub-Prior Baerant Telcharr maybe having levels in War-Priest if he qualifies (not sure on this without pulling Complete Divine out), just doing some brain-storming at the moment. |

Yup, pretty much. :) |

Just finished up with the Abbess so far, decided in the end to just make her a pure cleric. Will try to get the others up by the end of the week.
Now I remember why I took a break from making NPCs, all these darn Clerics... (flashbacks of Menzoberranzan and Ched Nasad)
Leader of the Seekers of the Dawn, Abbess of Dawnspire
Abbess Alaecathra Shuinrond: Female Chondathan Human Clr16; CR 16; Medium Humanoid (Human); HD 16d8+96; hp 199; Init +4; Spd 30 ft.; AC 28 (touch 15, flat-footed 24); Base Atk +11; Grp +16; Atk +20 melee (1d8+9 +1d6 fire, Glorious Dawn); Full Atk +20/+15/+10 melee (1d8+9 +1d6 fire, Glorious Dawn); Face/Reach 5 ft./5 ft.; SA Turn Undead; AL NG; SV Fort +22, Ref +15, Will +24; Str 20, Dex 18, Con 22, Int 16, Wis 26, Cha 24.
Skills and Feats (counting all modifiers except equipment and attributes): Concentration +19 (+23 when casting defensively), Diplomacy +10, Heal +10, Knowledge (Arcana) +10, Knowledge (Religion) +15, Knowledge (The Planes) +16, Speak Language (Chondathan, Common, Celestial, Damaran, Elven), Spellcraft +15. Combat Casting, Disciple of the Sun, Improved Turning, Initiate of Lathander, Leadership, Luck of Heroes, Shielded Casting.
Special Qualities: Aura of Good (equal to cleric level); Turn/Destroy Undead as 17th level cleric 10/day.
Cleric Spells Prepared (6/7+1/7+1/7+1/6+1/5+1/4+1/4+1/3+1; base DC = 18 + spell level; caster level 16th).
Deity: Lathander Domains: Good (cast Good spells at +1 caster level), Sun (Greater Turning 1/day).
Possessions: Silver Holy Symbol (Lathander), +3 Ghost Touch Soulfire Mithral Breastplate, +3 Blinding Heavy Mithral Shield, Glorious Dawn, Belt of Giant Strength +6, Cloak of Resistance +5, Earring of Charisma +6, Earring of Health, Periapt of Wisdom +6, other possessions unknown.
Height: Unknown, Weight: Unknown, Hair: Unknown, Eyes: Unknown.
Conversion Note: Listed in Ruins of Myth Drannor boxed set as 16th level Priestess with Dex 17, Wis 18, Cha 17, and a +4 Mace.
Sources: Ruins of Myth Drannor boxed set (2E), PHB 3.5, DMG 3.5, Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting (3E), Magic of Faerun (3E), Player’s Guide to Faerun (3.5E), Book of Exalted Deeds (3E), Complete Divine (3.5E), Races of Stone (3.5E).
Glorious Dawn: This heavy mace of pure silver bears many powerful enchantments against undead and evil. Glorious Dawn is a +4 Flaming Ghost Touch Holy Silver Heavy Mace of Disruption. Glorious Dawn, being made of magically hardened silver does an additional point of damage to creatures with damage reduction that is bypassed by silver.
The head of Glorious Dawn is engraved with many runes and symbols of good and light. Only in the hands of a good cleric with the sun domain does Glorious Dawn reveal its full glory, in the hands anyone else it functions as a +4 Silver Heavy Mace, except when facing undead, then Glorious Dawn flares to life to destroy the undead only to fall dormant again after the undead have been destroyed.
Glorious Dawn cannot abide the touch of evil, bestowing two negative levels on any evil creature attempting to wield it. The negative levels remain as long as the weapon is in hand and disappears when the Glorious Dawn is no longer wielded. These negative levels never result in actual level loss, but cannot be overcome in any way (including Restoration spells) while Glorious Dawn is wielded.
