Subject:  Re: NPC of the week
This is the first NPC of the week. I will try to get at least one up each
week, but real life might intrude. The format will be simple (so as to work
well across differing rulesets) mainly focusing on a few paragraphs about
the personality.

Savalokor- First Order Priest of Celestian

.(Lizardfolk Male, Fighter 3, Cleric 2) A quiet and introspective seeming
entity, Savalokor is far from forthcoming about his origins. He appeared on
the Rock of Bral a year ago on a tramp freighter from RingSpace and made his
way directly to the Pantheistic College of Celestian. Supplicating himself
he requested the priveledge of becoming a novice priest.

 (See
http://www.spelljammer.org/contests/localchapters/ChurchOfCelestian-Bral.html
for descriptions of the Church and it's personalities)

Adelard, the High Priest, granted him admittance and since then he has
remained the model novice. Like many of his race, his interpersonal skills
when dealing with mammals are not always at their best. Mostly quiet and
reserved (some say taciturn), he has on occasion shown signs of a temper,
although never around any of the other priests of his order. In his studies
he has proven a quick study with a true aptitude for divine magic.

Little known to those around him, Savalokor has an agenda of his own. Lizard
folk belive that incubating their eggs close to a sun results in more
advenced Lizardfolk (Concordance of Arcane Space, Spelljammer Boed Set).
Savalokor belongs to a small sect of Lizardfolk who believe in adopting the
travel gods of the "soft folk," in order to aid in a very special quest.
These radicals wish to journey the spheres in search of the "Prime Sun," one
which would affect eggs incubated near it so as to produce extremely
powerful and intelligent Lizardfolk. They belive that the mammal's time
shall end, much as the time of the Illithids and the Thri Kreen did. Their
order wishes to pave the way for the Scalykind to ascend to dominance.

One of the (suprisingly sophistocated) ideas that they espouse is that the
gods are innately formless. This justifies their adoption of human godforms,
as once the humans are no more and the scalykind rule the gods will be
portrayed as Lizardfolk and will change accordingly. Needless to say, the
clerics of Semuanya hate these "heretics." with a passion.
