Story
Scharr was born from a one-night stand. His father was a traveling merchant just stopping in the town of Galdos and his mother, Eris, was a poor elven tailor. Eris raised the child until the age of 5, until she realized there was no way she could pay for two mouths to feed. She took him out to the market in the larger, neighboring town of Handeas and left him there, hoping that either someone would take him in or end his life, one of the two.
Meanwhile, Scharr managed to find his way into the hands of a group of monks, who raised the child until the age of 15. They then kicked him out, urging him to go and find a job and make his own living. Wandering the streets of Handeas for a few weeks, he finally managed to find a place as a servant in the home of Darius Olenheim.
Things went relatively normal for him. Working largely near Darius' wife, Eldia's quarters, he began to become friends with her, her often being kind enough to leave him extra food or tip him with a bit of extra money. But he also began to notice strange things about her. She would sometimes take care of children that he would never see again, or sometimes she would invite company into the dining hall that he would never see exit the premise, either.
So at age 19, he chose to follow her and upon that discovered a vast underground complex strewn with corpses, bodyparts, zombies and, most importantly, a huge altar to Nerull. Due to his shock and horror, she discovered him. He pleaded for his life and she, in an act of kindness, granted him his wish. After a series of conversations about death and a way to prevent it, she took him under her wing and began to teach him the ways of Nerull.
Although she beat him if he did wrong, she was still kind and gentle to him in other ways. And so despite her occasional brutality, he fell in love with her, eventually to a point of obsession where he would go any lengths to make her happy. Killing, leading children to her, grave robbing--it didn't matter what it was, he would do it. She, meanwhile, continued her study on how to forever preserve her youth and beauty that she ever feared losing.
This happy time for Scharr lasted until he was 25. At this point, Darius began to notice more and more that Scharr and Eldia were going off together, and he began to fear she might be cheating on him. He asked for a small investigation to take place, merely worried that Eldia may no longer take interest in him. What the investigation turned up was her altar to Nerull, and the corpses that she had piled up along the years. Greatly overshadowing any relationship she may have had with Scharr, she was arrested and sentenced to death. The night before she was to be executed Scharr lied his way into visiting her. After one long conversation, he promised her he would continue her research and furthermore he would save her from death's clutches, so that the two of them could, eventually, remain young forever.
She was put to death by drawing and quartering. Scharr watched her executed. The five pieces of her body were put on display around the town, although later that night Scharr collected the pieces and, with a small amount of food and money, he buried her away from the city and left.
Ever since then he has fled Drakenheim, fearing for his life (as he was Elidia's pupil) and wandered, eventually ending up in Alizarin
Role in Party
Scharr serves largely as a healer, although he can also both buff and dish out quite a bit of damage due to his spells. He also tries to serve as a summoner, providing creatures who can either help by overtaking the enemy or prove to be a distraction. He can provide some diplomatic support, although not much (see: he's pretty good at offending people and that's it).
Mainly he serves as the party asshole/comedy relief.
Psychology
Scharr is fascinated by death. Ever since Elidia introduced him to Nerull, he has been vastly interested in it and, simultaneously, afraid of it. Controlling life, due to the fact that his life has been largely circumstantial, has been his dream. To be able to end one's life or bring it back at an instant--that is what he is after.
His main goal in life is to be able to bring back his love, Elidia and attain her goal as well--eternal youth. Living agelessly he can live, with her, forever young and doing whatever he pleases, controlling whatever he wishes.
Scharr's sexism results from his conscious thought that, well, Elidia was the perfect woman. If no other woman can act that way (which in his twisted mind, is no woman), then they are a failure, plain and simple. His racism against elves comes from how he heard his mother abandoned him in the marketplace. Taking this as elves being too flippant and weak to take care of his young, and dwelling on it for the past 27 years of his life, Scharr has long taken up this view with all elves.
Alignment
Scharr is lawful evil. Order is a neccessity--after all, if the rules of life and death don't exist, how could he possibly control them--but he's in it for both himself and Elidia. Killing, violence--if it meant bringing her back and furthering his goal, he's all for it. Furthermore, lying has shown him that when the rules don't work, simply make up your own and most of the time people'll believe you.
Relationships
- Matto: Stabs himself and talks to lizards and watches lesbians. Man this guy is a weirdo. He's pretty good to have around though--I mean, he seems to really know how the party works an' all, y'know. Plus, when he's not too busy stabbing himself he can take the heat, if y'know what I mean. He and I also connect because I think we're the only two men in the party. He totally tried to hit on this chick and got shot down hardcore though, so I'm not sure how close I want to remain around him.
- Gnaat: One word. Awkward. >: She doesn't seem to speak Common too well, so maybe she's a little confused, but she's convinced that I like, had sex with my mother when I was 5 or somethin' an' that I slept with her. I did sleep with her, but not _THAT_ kind of sleep. The kinda sleep that, y'know, doesn't involve sleep an' instead involves strenuous activity, heh. :>
- O's: She's stopped hitting me as much, which is pretty cool I s'pose, but lemme tell ya I still don't trust 'er. One o' these days she's just gonna sneak up to me in my sleep and castrate me an' then like, eat it or somethin', I dunno, dames are weird! Said she trusts me or somethin', but I don't believe 'er. And goddammit she still owes me "services"!
- Spikey: GRAGH! I _hate_ this guy! He thinks he has the nerve to go around spouting what's good and evil! Just because you're some paladin doesn't mean you're always right! He threatens Arinae and I constantly, refuses to hang around the party, and treats us all like we're morons. I hope this guy's god kicks his ass one day, because quite frankly I think he deserves it so he can get off his high horse and see the world from everyone else's perspective!
- Shortstop/Doorstop/Shorty: For a midget woman she, surprisingly can be pretty useful. Friggin' little thief though. One day I swear she's gonna get it, although it's kind of creepy because she's got the hots for me. Uuuuuuuh. Not sure what t'think about that seeing as she's twitchy, short, prolly hairy and picks on me a lot. I think she just needs t'get laid. But not by me.
- Arinae: Prolly the coolest person in the party, lemme tell ya. She an' I have a lotta similarities even though she's an elf and a woman, like "Raiden wants to kill us." Yeah. Namely "Raiden wants to kill us." But hey! She also finally managed to pick something up about Undercommon and totally showed me the "bad side" of town, which was awesome. Things look like they're going well for her!
- Hardy: Alright! Alright! I take it back! This guy is cool! Lemme tell ya, without him we'd probably be eaten by bugsies or whatev. He also like, totally killed that cleric so, lemme tell ya, I forgive him for his former assholishness. Just one thing though--if he puts those elf ears on me ONE more time I swear I WILL stab him.
- Elf: As odd as it is, he's not as bad as the party made 'im out to be. Maybe he doesn't think I'm a half-elf or somethin', 'cause, y'know, I did kinda cut my ears off. He, Mydo and I need to hit the town sometime. Although he did look ridiculously goofy in that fish-bowl thing.
- Some Knight Dude: HAHAHAHAH I totally have his hand. You shoulda seen the look on Spikey's face when I was waving it around--it was hilarious! Now it's mounted on my wall in the basement.
- Twiggy: She's pretty quiet, but she's pretty cool, too. She totally agreed to help me with that whole spell thing, even though it didn't really work... I think. Regardless, she's also good as a back-up healer, and she can summon lightning like no one's business.
- Dalaran Grave Keeper: HOLY CRAP I'm gonna kill this guy. Just you wait mister Grave Keeper--one day your St. Cuthbert friends won't be around and your last image as you slowly die will be zombies ripping the flesh off of your still mortal body. Heh heh heh. No really--I'm gonna kill him.
- Nebberkawhatthefuck: Some leader of the... Liberans? Liberhoohas? Whatev. Magical or somethin', seems like the party knows 'im. Better not be from one of those orgies they keep havin'. Ick.
- Frederick Meyer: Has a funny name. Casts magic. Thassall. Supposedly will like, sell you any book for 50 gold or something. I dunno, sounded pretty dirty.
- Michaelis: AGH WHAT AN ASS. Fucking Heironeous people! I guess he is pretty important or something, but jeez, what a dick! Oh well, I'll get the information other ways, I'm sure of it...
- Avarice: 'parrently a greedy sonuvabitch or something. She like, really wants this box fulla money that Raiden has or somethin' like that. She's also like, the opposite of Helga and is insane and tortures people and the like. I kinda wanna meet her--she sounds interesting, but from what it sounds like she'd be talking to me and also be like, shoving a pole up my ass or something.
- Camp o' Ghosts: .... Hate to say it, but I actually feel kinda... well, bad for 'em. Not that they neccessarily deserved to be totally ass-raped by some crazy chick... but... AGH what the hell am I sayin'? If they weren't strong enough to fend her off they deserved it! .... Yeah....
- That little elf girl: Holy shit that was crazy. I am avoidin' that town for a while, lemme tell ya.
- Shorty McGoof: He's not a necromancer. I don't care what the party says--that little twat can't be a necromancer. According to that boney dude he's also a worshipper of Nerull, which, lemme tell ya I can't believe either. I mean, why the hell would Nerull have a guy like that as a follower? Then again, I don't think he was a cleric of Nerull. I guess that just means I'm better than him--Nerull actually gave me powers, unlike that stupid sodomy-loving sonuvabitch.
- Victor: ... I think I've heard of things like him. Can't quite remember what they're called, but something about how they trade their soul for living forever. Kind of like what I want, really, except he was really old and ugly and lemme tell ya, I don't think Elidia would want that. Arinae was yelling at him a lot. I don't know why. Either way he's totally an asshole.
- That ex-King Guy: ... He kinda seems like a dick. Apparently the party helped him but he still hates their guts or something. Might have something to do with the fact that O's totally banged his daughter. Heh. :>
- That Princess O's Banged: ... Oh Iiiiiiiiiiiii'm... gonna bang your dauuuuuuuuuuughter! *lute noises*
- Albus: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA ohhhhh man who didn't see that one comin'. Sucks to be him! Ah well, he was kinda always a jerk to me and a few other people in the party, namely Aeleria who didn't really do anything wrong. He actually might still be alive, but that's unlikely 'cause, y'know, he ran off to go get his creepy older-than-he-is-dad.
- People on that island: I TOTALLY got my vengeance. That was way past cool. Kinda sucks though, 'cause I mean, y'know, they're all probably dead now especially since they all had wicked hangovers, but lemme tell ya, at least I gave them the night of their life before they went out! ... That sounded wrong. :<
- Lucy (the Succubus): Haha! She totally found me a Temple of Nerull. How friggin' sweet is that. Lemme tell ya, though, just between you an' me... I still don't feel all too right about that whole dead paladin thing. I mean, he died for 150 gold. Ah well! I'll just say it was... uh... cleansing... the... unpure... Oh who am I kiddin', I totally killed a guy who prolly didn't deserve it in a horrible fashion. Ah well! I prolly didn't know 'im.
- Towerfall/Towerfuck/whatev: That guy was only good because he had some stupid hammer, lemme tell ya! And then he RAN! The little puss RAN! AGHGHGHGH. It's okay. It's okay. We'll get our revenge, lemme tell ya, and it will be BEAUTIFUL! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAaaaaaaaaaI wish I had death-touched that asshole.
- Hans: Okay, what a dick! So this guy just comes up like, "Hey, I ran into you before, thanks for doing our work" then throws us down a pit full of fucking bugs. How many enemies has this group made for crying out loud?! Lemme tell ya, I don't think a single person likes them. I wouldn't be surprised if Helga came out of nowhere and tried to kill them and then the King came around and tried to kill them next and then Mr. Elf-pants Dresvan came up and stabbed them too. :<
- Drakenheim: [insert a 2-page rant here.]
Current Thoughts
Phew! That was a fuckin' close one, lemme tell you. So we had to take out this Towerfall guy because he was just being a total douche and was going to blame us for all the problems, and I got shot a bunch and it hurt, and then this guy Hans came out of nowhere and was like "Hurf hurf hurf" and then we were all down a freakin' pit, lemme tell ya, and then these BUGS started coming outta nowhere like eighty million ugly-ass BUGS and we were like "OH HOLY SHIT" and then Raevynn found this paper and was like "What the hell is this" and I was like "HEY NOODLES MAGIC" and he was like "WISH SCROLL" and we were like "OH FUCK YES" and lemme tell ya, I just had to scribble something down fast because like the rest of the party wanted me to write that we should be wished home but Noodles kept saying it would screw up the spell or somethin' so we got all of our spells and equipment back but those bugs kept on comin' and like, lemme tell ya, some totally burrowed into Mydo and he was like "OH GOD MY FLESH" and I was like "AGH!" and then I decided to help everyone out so I totally like, started walking on air and lifting people out and like dropped a grappling hook and then Gnaat totally pulled people up and lemme tell ya, it was CRAZINESS man 'cause then like we had to help everyone remove WORMS from their flesh, fuckin' WORMS.
pants
Nerull is gonna kill me, but not before I KILL THAT TITHOLE HANS!
Once we figure out where we are.
... where the heck are we, anyway.
