Warder

[Mark Rand]

One cool thing about the IST is that there are both squads of heroes, like the PCs, and specialist heroes, NPCs who usually work solo. Warder, Boston-born Lisa Ward, is a specialist. Her field is magic.

 

In truth, her build will be very easy. I'm going to base it on the updated version of Witchcraft, but with different disadvantages. Her familiar, Isis, a black cat, will be even easier. She's a combination of the HD Bestiary entries for domestic cat and familiar.

 

Isis will be posted first.

Re: Warder

 

I've started Warder's sheet. It should be finished soon.

Re: Warder

 

Do to the fact that Warder is a specialist, she's permitted to work from her house.

 

Among her contacts are three witchy sisters living in San Francisco, one of which is addicted to lollipops.
