I keep reading about Roegadyn, mainly the Hellsguard, but I can't find enough information to build my character on. Or rather, it's so vague that I'm not sure how much freedom I have in terms of building his character. For example, I don't know if a Hellsguard is "allowed" to be more than a giant, loyal mercenary, or if I can do whatever I wanted with his personality.Â
Am I just having trouble finding Roe lore, or is their lore kinda vague in general? The sea wolves have a bit more info about them, but I'm not rolling one so that doesn't help.
Well as a Roe you do have to be a giant!
Other than that the general gist I get of Hellsguard is the following. They intially broke with the rest of their race to master magic that was beyond them,while it seems the rest of the race has caught up, Hellsguard can still be a bit more magical than their kin(and they have better starting stats for it)
They are natural adventurers(which is the mercenary thing) and are loyal to those who earn it. Since I doubt you're going to want to constantly be betraying people it seems like its not a huge thing.
Hellsguard have bad ass Wuxia character style names. This is probably the most important thing and what I would say covers any "Oddness" in a character. Ultimately Hellsguard are individuals who want their greatness recognized by the world. IF they've found a new and different way to go, well so be it.
