The Icarus Project

Several returning characters from Requiem encounter some of my more powerful OCs. Based in the Forgotten Realms universe.
(Dungeons and Dragons, Neverwinter, etcetera. A couple lore tidbits might be off, but I'm not super well versed in the forgotten realms lore.)
I had the idea for Aegis, a character who could stop attacks with just how merry and jaunty he is, who of course, in traditional dwarven fashion, got stronger the drunker he is. I really do hope to get some deeper character development for him. Shall we see if he can defeat The Mad King in less chapters than Elijah? He's definitely more experienced, but he doesn't have as much plot armour. Definitely gonna be shorter than Requiem. Also, Lino's a qt. Aegis is based off of my Paladin in the game Neverwinter, of course, in Neverwinter they all have shields. Various of this guy's endeavors will be based off of quips I've had in parties.
