Luthor

Time in Ravenloft

Luthor was a member of one of of eight distinguished warriors traveling to Waterdeep after a successful battle against a dragon known as Blackheart. On their journey they soon found themselves surrounded by thick, swirling mists, with the scent of dread abound it. They soon found themselves before a castle, with a distinguished gentlemen stepping out of the mists. He introduced himself as Count Strahd Von Zarovich, and quickly explained their situation. They were far from home with no way back, but he knew of a portal that could take them home. If they would defeat several assassins sent by a Death Knight, he would gladly show them the portal. Unfortunately they were unable to stop most of the assassins, leaving Strahd to defeat the remaining ones.

History

His birth has been called by some a sign of the gods’ pleasure with mankind. At the tender age of four, priests chose Luthor for the Order of the Golden Cross. By the age of thirteen he was already the finest warrior the Order had ever produced. At nineteen, Luthor set out on the road to adventure determined to convert as many heathens as he could to the Order’s cause.

His daring deeds have swayed many. He healed the bleeding prince of Ruetra, rid the world of the ancient wyrm Red Fang, and recovered the Order’s most sacred relic, the cross of St. Kristoff, from the lich king Wodron’s legions. Many wonder what he has yet to accomplish. Blessed by the gods and devoted to their righteous cause, Luthor is the Order’s greatest champion. He fights vigilantly in his eternal mission to bring order and good to the world, and to smite down evil wherever it may be found. It is said he is blessed by the Spirit of the Martyr.

Before each combat begins, Luthor kneels and bows his head in prayer, while being bathed in a shaft of golden light from above. In combat, he wields a huge, two-handed sword. Luthor had heavy, field plate armor, so he is rather slow and ponderous when attacking. His special attack is a berserk rage. The opponent will know that Luthor is about to enter the rage, as he will be momentarily bathed in the heavenly glow from above. After this, his speed will increase and he will charge his opponent, slashing savagely with his sword. The opponent may dodge, but blocks will be ineffective. Also, even though Luthor may be hit and absorb damage while in this state, unless he is killed, the maneuver will not be halted until it is completed.
