Social

Personality Traits: • I face problems head-on. A simple direct solution is the best path to success. • I've lost too many friends, and I'm slow to make new ones. Ideals: • Independence. When people follow orders blindly they embrace a kind of tyranny. • Aspiration. I seek to prove my self worthy of my god's favor by matching my actions against his or her teachings. Bonds: I would lay down my life for the people I served with. I'm loyal to those who fight beside me. Flaws: I'd rather eat my armor than admit when I'm wrong.

A smooth sea never made a skillful sailor. - Proverb

Origin

Grew up in Purple Rocks. Father was a fisherman. As a young teen was conscripted into the military and began working as a soldier/sailor on board a military ship. Did this for many years.

Connection to Rafenas Birlond: At some point, after many years of service, the crew Wick is a part of is abducted by cultists who sacrifice the majority of the crew to a god/demon/beyonder. Rafenas is present is and has an opportunity to assist Wick, but does not. Wick is tied to a rock and left to die. In desperation he calls to various deities, many of the ones his people would be familiar with and would worship. All of them are silent. There is a storm raging. Through a momentary break in the storm, the clouds part and Wick looks up to see the moon and the stars. He calls out to Selune. She answers. She comes to him and makes him her living embodiment of Guidance Through the Storm. And as the light that guides through the darkness and through the storm, she has some power over that storm. As her cleric, she gives him power of that domain.

Wick eventually comes on board The Horizon's Kiss as uses becomes the Navigator.

Connection to Tusker Through his connections as Selune's cleric, Wick learns of a lycanthrope being held prisoner. He convinces the crew of the Horizon's Kiss to help him rescue the poor soul. They save, release, and cure (?) Tusker, who comes on board as another member of the crew.

• Channel Divinity - Turn Undead:

As an action, you present your holy symbol and speak a prayer censuring the undead. Each undead that can see or hear you within 30 feet of you must make a Wisdom saving throw. If the creature fails its saving throw, it is turned for 1 minute or until it takes any damage.

A turned creature must spend its turns trying to move as far away from you as it can, and it can't willingly move to a space within 30 feet of you. lt also can't take reactions. For its action, it can use only the Dash action or try to escape from an effect that prevents it from moving. If there's nowhere to move, the creature can use the Dodge action. Beginning at 6th level, you can use your Channel Divinity twice between rests. When you finish a short or Long Rest, you regain your expended uses.

• Destroy Undead:

Starting at 5th level, when an undead fails its saving throw against your Turn Undead feature, the creature is instantly destroyed if its challenge rating is at or below 1/2

• Wrath of the Storm:

You can thunderously rebuke attackers. When a creature within 5 feet of you that you can see hits you with an attack, you can use your reaction to cause the creature to make a Dexterity saving throw. The creature takes 2d8 lightning or thunder damage (your choice) on a failed saving throw, and half as much damage on a successful one. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Wisdom modifier (a minimum of once). You regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

• Channel Divinity - Destructive Wrath:

You can use your Channel Divinity to wield the power of the storm with unchecked ferocity. When you roll lightning or thunder damage, you can use your Channel Divinity to deal maximum damage, instead of rolling. Beginning at 6th level, you can use your Channel Divinity twice between rests. When you finish a short or Long Rest, you regain your expended uses.

• Thunderbolt Strike:

When you deal lightning damage to a Large or smaller creature, you can also push it up to 10 feet away from you.

Marine Veteran Background

War at sea was both your life and your bread and butter for a long while. You learned not only how to sail the ship, but to protect it with blood and steel. With your brothers-at-arms you learned the better points of coastal raids, boarding ships, and repelling boarders from your own.

• Skill Proficiencies: Athletics, Intimidation
• Tool Proficiencies: Navigator's tools, Vehicles (water)
• Language: Alzhedo
• Feature - Marks of Service: Tattoo marking military service with the Navy/Marines of the Purple Rocks. You have marks of service from your time as a marine. Most commoners will easily yield to your polite (and even not so polite) requests. They may even buy you drinks if they know of your deeds and respect them. On the other side of that coin, you also have enemies who will look for opportunities to get back at you or kick you when you are down. Marines give respect to former members of their service, but not so far as to endanger their own mission. Former marines can always get meals and a bedroll in the common room, provided they are willing to train recruits while they stay and that their stay won't be less than 8 weeks.
