Wiquaestreal also carries a very special defender long sword +4 that was forged in the Abyss, and is comprised entirely of souls bound in eternal torment!

Combat/Tactics: Wiquaestreal is a Bladesinger. He has not only merged the combat skills and the battle magic of the bladesingers with that of the artistic and song powers of bards, but he has also become a clerical spellcaster in addition to his already awesome combat and spell capabilities.

Wiquaestreal is a well-trained and highly effective warrior-mage-bard of the elven nations. He typically casts his spells in concert with his famous swordsmanship to overwhelm foes with skill and phantom blades! He now can cast clerical magics to aid his travels, bring about chaos and heal himself and others.

He is also known to always be wary for trickery and is prepared to magically repair his sword or armor on a daily basis. Often he has also had to repair his companions things, as their equipment was needed and more damaged.

Allies/Companions: Aras Stormblade; Asper (Beloved of Mirt); Azathoth; Drexor of Cormyr; Erik the Cobbler; Kara the Beautiful (destroyed); Mirt the Moneylender; Montgomery Burns; Pinchy the Talking Lobster (deceased); Sujabar "Tarbosh"; Twilight Thrillseeker.

Foes/Enemies: All foes of elvenkind, plus Koblos and numerous tanar'ri and countless feuding nobles of Waterdeep.

Appearance: Tall and slim, Wiquaestreal is a proud and capable Bladesinger of the elven nations. With long silver hair the texture of silk and inquisitive violet eyes, he stands 5' 7" and weighs 146 pounds of pure muscle. Young still for an elf, Wiquaestreal is only in his 120's and is one of the most experienced and highest rising in the ranks of the Bladesinger clans of the Realms. He is the first of the songblades, and has lost his left hand in a battle with gargoyles! It is now kept covered by wrappings of shadowy grey silk.

Wiquaestreal wears a unique monk-like suit made entirely of thistledown and a special magical cloak rarely seen in the Realms. His heir~sword is also exquisite, having been created entirely from silver and bearing his families full history upon its leaf-shaped blade. Wiquaestreal's elven chain mail is likewise of very fine craftsmanship, as it is made of what appears to be hundreds of mithral oak leaves curled back upon themselves, to form the circular links of the armor. He also now wears a star shaped sapphire amulet that glows with blue-black light. It was given to him by Kara the Beautiful, an avatar of the Chaos Lord for which she is named!

Personality: Disdaining humans, except his present company, Wiquaestreal has been charged by Tetherin Verald� to stay with, and protect Twilight Thrillseeker (the Myth of elven legend)! Otherwise he is very thoughtful and a genius at discovering ways to elude enemies and defeat problems that arise and plague him and his companions.

Wiquaestreal is a Bladesinger with the highest honor. He is forever furthering the elven way of life and the war against the elven foes. Even though he's gained a magical sword, Wiquaestreal continues to use Runedge when fighting normal creatures. He does this unless the enemy he faces requires a magical weapon to strike it; then, and only then will he use a weapon not made of the Tel'Quessir (The People: elves).

Wiquaestreal is a proud and cocky individual. Beyond this, he sees that using humans and other "lesser" peoples of the Realms to further the elven cause is the best way of destroying his enemies. Especially since the humans do things with such excitement and energy. Using this energy in a productive way for Tel'Quessir is the only logical step in their regaining their past glory and rule over the Realms, this is the philosophy of Wiquaestreal.

From the strange circumstances of his childhood and the prejudices of the elves of the Elven Court, Wiquaestreal suffers a -2 reaction penalty when dealing with humans and a -7 reaction penalty to all known racial enemies of the elven nations.

    Unique Abilities/Items:

  • Aura Filter: A filter spell now surrounds the elf and he suffers -1 damage per die of spell damage done to him from an aura formation spell. Its focus item is a 1,000 gp diamond that he keeps inside his belt. There are 200 days left of this spell.
  • Beastly Dexterity: Wiquaestreal keeps a beast tattoo cast on his person at all times. It grants him a +1 to his Dexterity score, thus giving him a Dexterity of 16.
  • Blackhand: Wiquaestreal keeps blackhand cast on his person at all times. It is immune to physical attacks and can withstand up to 36 points of spell damage before ending the spell and dissapating the hand.
  • Contingency: This back-up spell casts stoneskin on Wiquaestreal when his normal stoneskin wears off, or when the name Kara the Beautiful is said backwards in Elven.
  • Contingent Mail: Well maintained invisible mail also protects the Songblade at most times. This spell-armor grants Wiquaestreal a base AC 3 and it absorbs 13 points of damage before the armor is destroyed.
  • Deck of Fate: avoid any situation once; yet one of his henchmen will also turn against him.
  • Fate's Smile: Wiquaestreal can actually change his actions to better the outcome, by a boon of the gods! In effect, he can use an immediate version of the clerical spell choose future thrice per day.
  • Mojo Rising: Wiquaestreal has superior distance vision and a +1 bonus to his surprise rolls from his familial connection to Mojo.
  • National Treasures: A faithful warrior of the elven nations, Wiquaestreal has sent Serpent guard: a ruby-eyed, intertwined dragon hilted long sword +2, red dragon slayer that was a treasure from an elven tomb that was nearly lost to the earth to Evermeet for safe keeping. He has given his bracers of brachiation to the leader of the warriors of the Elven Court in person, and has placed 3 indiviual long swords +2 in the care of the elven church to be given to heroic and needy bladesingers!
  • Prayer~Singer: A boon gained from an mystical fountain and the Seldarine, Wiquaestreal can now cast clerical spells as a cleric 6 levels lower than his current level. However, these spells are more potent in power than in number, as they are cast at only 3 levels lower then his current level.
  • Sanctuary: From saving the life of Asper, Mirt the Moneylender's wife, Wiquaestreal can stay at any of Mirt's properties with the protect of the hidden Lord of Waterdeep himself, plus all those associated with him.
  • Spellsinger: As a Songblade, Wiquaestreal sings his spells. Thus, he does not suffer the +2 initiative penalty for casting, nor does he need somatic components to cast his spells. Furthermore, while spellcasting he can defend himself with his sword gaining a +7 bonus to his AC.

  • Mojo (falcon familiar): Int 3; AC 5; MV 1, Fl 36 (B); HD 1-1 (+12); hp 19; THAC0 20; AT# 3; Dmg 1/1/1; SA dive at enemies +2 to hit, vampiric touch 1/day; SD half or no damage from special attacks; SZ S (3' wingspan); ML fearless (20); AL N; XP 420.

    Mojo is a stark black and grey, he has learned that Wiquaestreal loves him and wishes him safety above all else. He can communicate with Wiquaestreal via empathy and issue him mental commands up to 1 mile away. Plus when in direct contact with his master, Mojo gains his saving throws against special attacks, and when his master makes a successful saving throw, Mojo is unaffected by spell or effects. Therefore, he flies out of harms way, even though he wishes to help protect his master. Being dipped in a magical fountain by his master, Mojo has gained the ability to use vampiric touch on his prey once per day, now if Wiquaestreal would only let him soar to thee attack... Soon his predatory instincts will take over, however, and there will be a reckoning to those who harm his master!
