Hi all! This is Bear (Lupa, Pod, Thace) bringing in a fourth: Bayek, from Assassin's Creed: Origins.
Bayek is coming in on Team Death (and somewhere, Emperor is probably Very Disappointed), and as might be implied, he's an assassin. But not originally, though, because he started out as essentially an (not so) ancient Egyptian police officer, and he takes being a protector (officially Medjay or not) very seriously. He's also in his forties, and will probably be the most dad at everyone, because that's how he rolls. (And nobody is surprised that he ended up on my roster.)
For those history buffs among the Travelers, he's been in the Library of Alexandria, climbed the Pharos, met Julius Caesar and Cleopatra and explored a great many landmarks and tombs in Egypt.
Onto more directly game relevant things, Bayek is coming into the game as a veteran of Ace of Spades, Cursed Kingdom (Dolorosa), and Ivory Tower Jaunts, but he would have been very angrily grieving a murdered son at the time and not the most social guy (even in his infiltration as a Gryphon Knight), before he disappeared into a dungeon. If anyone wants to establish some pre-established CR with Bayek, hit me up here or on plurk!
Speaking of the dungeon, he'll be coming back into game from one, so if anybody wants to help rescue him (and explore a pyramid) details on his handwaved dungeon is
here! (but there are major Origins spoilers, if you care about such things). If you're interested in having your character rescue Bayek, you can drop a comment here, at the outline post, or on plurk.
Likewise, if you don't want spoilers, please tell me, although I'll try to warn in threads and/or ask before it comes up in threads for at least another month or two.
Lastly, my plurk is
naturalcyber if anyone who doesn't have me added would like to do so!
