So, this isn't really a chapter per-say but it is still in relation to the story. This is just a chapter for the Character sheets to help explain their personalities such as traits, flaws and other things. It is not going to include weapons armour or items because I'll introduce them later and I don't want any spoilers…
Also to anyone thinking if that spell is overpowered it is one that I made (With some help from Darksiders) and this is how it works…
Nex Sacramentum:
5th level Paladin spell: 60-feet range, action, lasts until spell is broken or the terms are met
The spell can only be broken by a Wish spell or something of the same effect
Description: The caster challenges another being with a soul that exists on the same plane of existence and binds it to a battle to the death. A 60-foot wide, 20-foot high cylinder is formed centring on the point in between the caster and the target. The caster and target cannot leave the spell with any spell, including teleport spells or planar travel, though a Wish spell does allow for this. Both the target and the caster must be willing to enter the spell and if one objects it cannot be cast. The caster must proclaim that they are initiating the spell and the target must accept and once they do, they cannot retreat on their acceptance. If the target states that they do not know the terms, then the caster must share with them the full effects of the spell or it will automatically fail even if they accept.
So technically, if Weiss had asked what it was she would have gotten a square answer and avoided all the trouble…
And now for character sheets. I might not have gotten them all right because I only play as Holg and I mostly guessed for everyone else except for the features.
