Bastien La'Morte

The Shield that Wars
Bastien La'morte is currently engaging in the war on evil at the Temple of Elemental Evil. Residing in Slough, he and his allies in SPUG lay siege on the doombringers and their worshipers from a secured residence that doubles as a storefront known has SPUGHQ. Though the battle has brought him many scars, he brings his all every time his shield clashes with an enemy. Having had many apprentices, Bastien considers himself a mentor to whoever would listen to his drunken rambling. His staunchest ally is the brave warrior Haakon, whom he has dived headfirst into peril with many a times. Among the many lost souls who has listened to Bastien's wisdom is the brilliant and courageous Spugnar, who has prepared Bastien with magical armaments and tools at every turn. Spugnar's magic has aided Bastien to barrel down a hallway shield first into the spray of a mounted balista, and even given him the ability to blind and disorient groups of foes with a magical blast of force and brightly colored debris.
