Kiritan

Description

You see Judge Kiritan ThunderSoul, Legendary Cleric of Urrem'tier, a Kaldar.

A bright aura of holy energy emanates from Kiritan, standing tall and shining with a powerful inner fortitude. Kiritan has unflinching hardened jade eyes. His auburn hair is shoulder length, wavy, and is worn in a tousled arrangement of upswept locks held in place by a green gold firefall vine spiraled to capture twin molten-core diamond blooms. He has star-shaped emeralds arranged in an alluring pattern across tanned skin and a sleek, sylphlike build. A circle of obsidian is positioned between his eyes, surrounded by an aura of shadow rippling against his skin.

An icy breeze stirs around his feet, rising in a blue-white spiral that drags several dust motes into the air that catch and glimmer in the ambient light, the breeze suddenly surges with strength for a brief time deafening you with its noise before it dies down sedately.

A shadowy orb rippling with silver arcs of light hovers like a will-o-wisp, follows him diligently.

He is holding a scorpid windsteel axe set with a molten diamond and spiritwood grip in his right hand and a scorpid windsteel hatchet set with a molten diamond and e'erdream grip in his left.

He is wearing a sleek icesteel great helm enveloped by artfully sculpted aspects of Urrem'tier, an ice-hued scorpion earcuff of smoothly forged icesteel, a flame-hued scorpion earcuff of roughly forged icesteel, a teeming medallion of icesteel scorpions inundating twin molten-core diamonds, a scorpid hide prayer book bound with icesteel and dusted with small molten diamonds, a darkened chitin surcoat bearing cambrinth scales set with tiny molten-core diamonds, a nightmare black longcoat of stormsilk-lined leather tooled with dark holy symbols, some scorpid icesteel battle plate set with a trielle molten diamond in the plackart, a slender icesteel knife with a silk-wrapped hilt, an icesteel shield embodying waves of lava crashing over a molten diamond, a razor-edged icesteel parry stick engraved with spirits of the fallen rising, some gauntlets of icesteel inlaid with volcanic crags of molten core diamond, a blood-red prayer sash stitched with dark holy symbols, an ice-veined leather weapon belt secured by heavy steel buckles, a diamond-hide raekhlo with a scorpid windsteel axe and a scorpid windsteel hatchet hanging from it, an icesteel blowgun with a forged grip and some heavy ice-veined leather boots reinforced by steel sabatons.

TWO-HAND - WEAPON: an imposing twin-bladed icesteel axe set with roiling molten-core diamonds.

The massive glacial blades are roughly forged to simulate an avalanche racing down the mountainous arch of each blade. Finely detailed scorpion engravings are staggered and poised to strike at the fiery prisms inundated within the blade. Distinctively inlaid dragon's blood crystal traces through fine details of the intricate forms. Inextinguishable pulses of life-like molten incandescence breathe the impression of displacement into the scorpions and a sense of flow to the alpine contours of the axe.

The tang is set in a sinuous handle, detailed in the likeness of a scorpion tail. The grip encircles the hand, a molten-diamond tipped telson poised to pierce the unwary hand. The resplendent icesteel knife reads:"The nature of a scorpion is to strike they prey at hand."

GREAT HELM:  a sleek icesteel great helm enveloped by artfully sculpted aspects of Urrem'tier

The surface of this helm is a lustrous backdrop to the imagery dominating each hemisphere.

The nightmare black leather is meticulously tooled with a diverse collection of intricate dark holy symbols. While random at a glance, the placement reveals a complex design of holy writ of unknown meaning. Stormsilk lines the interior of the longcoat and has dexterously worked blackwork embroidery to give the illusion of souls rising through a scintillating storm of electricity when the coat billows in the wind, allowing light to play over the spun platinum and silver thread lining.

PLATE: some scorpid icesteel battle plate set with a trielle molten diamond in the plackart.

Translucent icesteel flows into the visage of interlocking exoskeletal plates. Inlaid bands of windsteel segment the armor, each band hollowed by holy symbols and cast with icesteel to seamlessly rivet the metals together. The ominous coherence is solidified by the inclusion of a trielle molten diamond set flush within the plackart. The roiling luminescence refracts through the cool surface of the bluish metal, its smoldering lifelike light seeming caged within the accenting holy symbols.

GAUNTLETS: some gauntlets of icesteel inlaid with volcanic crags of molten core diamond

The frosty iridescence of these ominous gauntlets plays against each subtle shift of light that encroaches upon their ruggedly forged surface. They are crafted to bind the hands and arms in a frosty translucence that ripples with the roiling cores of each gem. The pulsing blooms of lava emanate waves of incandescent heat which cascade through the frigid surface bringing to mind nature's untamed ferocity.

Light pouring across the rare material makes the creatures appear to burn in molten lava. The quality of the craftsmanship is such that the cold gaze of the swarm seems to follow onlookers with each breath of the wind, leaving this illusionary inferno to rage about their unwavering forms."

SHIELD: an icesteel shield embodying waves of lava crashing over a molten diamond

Meticulously detailed, the sharp edges of each artfully shaped wave catch the light as they sit forever frozen in the the glacial iridescence of translucent icesteel. Buried within this chaotic visage of volcanic fury sits a partially inundated molten diamond, the warm pulse of its fiery heart roiling endlessly.

The icesteel shield reads:"Those most frigid to passions embrace are those trapped in its inferno."

HELM: a blackened great helm forged in the semblance of scorpion-like chitin.

The blackened damite has been carefully wrought to resemble layered scorpion chitin and is washed with just the slightest hint of purple and green hues to provide the artful impression of dusky iridescence. Riveted to the metal is a small copper plaque depicting a shield crossed with a longsword overlaying a field of thirteen stars. Encircling the design are the words, "Many Faces - One God."

CLOAK: a rantija of black and blue leather embossed with a striking scorpion

The dual panels of dark-hued leather overlap fully at the top and angle to flare somewhat outward as they fall to the hemline. Ridged to create a realistic-looking representation of chitin, the scorpion is presented with pedipalps down and tail raised, its stinger limned with greenish dye.

STOLE: a shimmering midnight black clerical stole with stormsilk embellishments.

The surface of the long ceremonial scarf is accented on one side by two stormy life-like scorpions created from dazzling stormsilk. The two appear locked in a never ending conflict, the fabric from which they're made adding to this with its spun platinum and tarnished silver threads, causing the creatures to appear to crackle with electricity when the light catches them.

RING: a crested gold thumb ring .

The ring has been engraved with the crest of the Clerics' Guild -- a pair of hands, one light and one dark, cradling a bridge that spans the two palms. Crossing the bridge are several people in various stages of life and death. In the center of the design are the initials "K.T."

KITTEN: a wild-eyed ivory kitten wearing a set of miniature storm-grey firesilk mail sailing a graceful small-scale galleon.

The kitten wears mock battle armor which shows scuffs and scrapes with odd discoloration in some areas. A multitude of roughly carved onyx scorpions are inset along the sides and back of the armor in a manner that appears as though they are swarming over the surface. Though somewhat decorative in appearance, their sharp edges suggest a different purpose. A chitin fragment reads "The void waits" in spidery scroll.
