Participate in a Twilight Isle Event +500 points

Both of the above matches were part of Full Moon Madness

Also Doran on a Dinosaur:
“From the direction of The Gloaming, shrouded by the shadows, came a hissing roar and the stamp of large feet. Then a large saurian beast charged into the fray, roughly 10 meters from end to end. Its arms ended in talons that slashed at the shadow beasts, seeking to shred them, while crocodilian jaws snapped to and fro.

Atop his mount, Doran rode with spear in hand, stabbing left and right, Once they reached the heart of the chaos, he leapt down and joined the defenders. “Goose! Remember, just the shadows!” The dinosaur roared, conveying its understanding, and set upon a dark beast that was charging towards a hapless goblin. Meanwhile, Doran looked to see if anyone else needed aid.”


Fight in the October 2024 Archmage Tournament +1000

Doran fought in (and won) said tournament.

(( Thread updated to include a bit of new Dark Hunter lore (with more to come), plus new spell components and new tasks to complete!

(( Please DM me if you have any questions or want to hash something out! ))

(( Little bit of an awkward update here. Below is a description of the Dark Hunter that I gave to someone to help them with their story writing for this event. I’m pasting it here, as is, so everyone who wants to interact with her can get started.

(( Later, when I have a little more time, I will add description and perhaps some “at a glance” notes for her to the main lore post. Until then, I hope this helps. And as always, please feel free to DM if you have any questions. ))

I’d originally planned for the Dark Hunter to be a figure of smoke and shadows, but to give you some more specificity … the first thing a person might notice about her is her size. She and her steed are massive; maybe 14 ft. tall with her in the saddle. She had a darkness about her that is more than mere coloration; she seems to absorb light and bleed shadow. Here and there, one might catch a glimpse of ash-streaked burnished skin, but much of her is obscured by her horned helm and mask, her riding leathers (of dubious origins), and her heavy cape with furred mantle. Her hair is black, like the shadows.

…

If she returns fire, I’m leaving it up to the player to determine how her spirit arrows affect them. In my mind, they can either strike flesh, or they can strike the mind/spirit, or both. She steals a person’s light and spark, robbing them of energy, joy, and will. So, she can cause a host of issues for a person struck. She also has magic of her own, like maybe shadow bolts and the likes.
