Sophyia has a knack for things that move-- she is a wild huntress with a disposition to evade detection as much as possible. She can also confuse her enemies by deploying an illusion around herself to cause misjudgements into her foes. Overall, she is a mighty hunter who knows the tricks of the trade. She carries around a particularly small, sharp hunting knife and a large bow crafted out of leaves and branches of the Fey Wood-- her arrows are formed in midair as glowing rods of emerald light, hence why she is dubbed the Emerald Archer.

Minor archers shaped similarly like shardminds, they shoot long shafts of crystalline arrows at their enemies much like Sophyia's shafts of emerald energy. These figures aren't as tricky as Sophyia, but have plenty of other tricks-- a few that even rival that of Sophyia's true potential.

A dark-robed figure carrying what seems to be an oddly shaped polearm that looks more like an oversize harpoon with a six-starred head. This weapon actually divides itself into 6 individual longspears that float around him. He is the Freelancer-- able to control and turn his blades into intelligent items at will.

Dark Travellers[edit]

Dark Travellers are an epic-level band of abnormal humanoids, some of whom have been tainted by the power of necromancy. Others just follow along with the group to unleash their potential upon those who attempt to ruin their plans.

Nyria, Word of Umond[edit]

The weakest of the Ten, she is a witch that uses the power of the voice to hinder and damage her foes with faint whispers of necromantic prayers and silent gestures. Her powerful kiss can become a useful and sometimes fatal tool.

Shadow Beast[edit]

Nyria's four-legged cohorts, they appear as shadowy silhouettes of the mighty lion. Their ferocious roar spews forth waves of necromantic energy at their foes, and their vicious claws infect their targets with painful spikes of raw necrotic energy.

Xigbar, the Freeshooter[edit]

Originally a freelance traveler, he encountered the group of wayward souls on one of his recent travels and has since aligned himself to the good of his new allies. He is torn between two worlds, but chooses to keep his own opinions and thoughts to his own self. He carries a pair of unusually-shaped weapons, which seem like crossbows at first from a distance...

Xigbar
Level 22 Solo Artillery
Medium Immortal Humanoid
XP 20,750
Initiative +19 Senses Perception +23; Darkvision
HP 795; Bloodied 397

Phase Arrows
Xigbar’s shots can be redirected to a different location within range, meaning that he doesn’t need direct line of sight to hit the target, but must have line of effect where the bullet reappears to hit the target.
Ranged Opportunity Attack
Since Xigbar only has ranged attacks, he can substitute his close range opportunity attack with a ranged basic attack-- range is the same as a melee attack. This type of attack does not provoke opportunity attacks in this fashion.
Reload (minor)
Xigbar can fire up to 12 shots (6 shots per gun) before he has to reload. If Xigbar runs out of shots before the start of his next turn, he cannot make immediate or opportunity attacks.
Sharpshooter
All of Xigbar’s ranged attacks with the arrowguns ignore cover, superior cover and concealment, but not total concealment.

Shadow Sniper[edit]

Sophyia, the Emerald Archer[edit]

Sophyia has a knack for things that move-- she is a wild huntress with a disposition to evade detection as much as possible. She can also confuse her enemies by deploying an illusion around herself to cause misjudgements into her foes. Overall, she is a mighty hunter who knows the tricks of the trade. She carries around a particularly small, sharp hunting knife and a large bow crafted out of leaves and branches of the Fey Wood-- her arrows are formed in midair as glowing rods of emerald light, hence why she is dubbed the Emerald Archer.

Emerald Shadows[edit]

Minor archers shaped similarly like shardminds, they shoot long shafts of crystalline arrows at their enemies much like Sophyia's shafts of emerald energy. These figures aren't as tricky as Sophyia, but have plenty of other tricks-- a few that even rival that of Sophyia's true potential.

Shagun, the Freelancer[edit]

A dark-robed figure carrying what seems to be an oddly shaped polearm that looks more like an oversize harpoon with a six-starred head. This weapon actually divides itself into 6 individual longspears that float around him. He is the Freelancer-- able to control and turn his blades into intelligent items at will.
