Champion of Sins

“Fear of death bound us to the chains of greed. My family are the heirs to murderers, thieves and pirates. This curse is why I must remain on this mountain peak and mediate the three princes or all that we worked for will be taken from us.”

- Joffery Tallonwing, the Champion of Sins

Shortly after the deal was struck by the original three Pirate Princes with Flux, the God of Sins and Virtues, one of the ex-pirates number began to see the damage that sin was causing within their ranks. Greed and wrath battered down progress and led men to madness, something had to be done. Joffery Tallonwing didn’t want to see the world he grew up in crumble to ruin and so sought Flux out himself in hopes of striking a new deal, one to help his people and to save them from themselves. Willing to sacrifice anything to do so, he bound himself to a life without death, without sleep, and without rest. In a moment between sin and virtue, Flux accidentally made them a perfect balance of both and thus gave them control over what even Flux could not control, gaining both their eternal envy and respect. Many thus believe the Champion themselves to be a god and ask for them to empower them as their patron. Though unlike some other Champions, he is careful about who he will give power to, knowing that even good intentions can have deviating consequences.

In the Colabria system we are making, we have the class of “Witch” rather than “Warlock”, and the class doesn’t use god-like entities to gain power as the Warlocks of Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition do. Having said that, we want to create the world to be able to be used with both systems, so to that end Champions will be options for Warlocks to take as their patrons instead of the standard Dungeons and Dragons Patrons. As such, the information below is NOT for the Colabria System, so if you are running a game using our custom system, you will not need to know or be aware of it! Also be aware that some of the classes, monsters, races and other stat related items have not been play tested, and those that have are only in the infantile stages of such, so please let us know if there are any changes you would recommend when using them. You can either do that via the Submit Ideas page here on the website, or in our community’s Discord. Thank you so much in advance, and we look forward to making more content for you all!

Patron of Warlocks

The Champion of Sins has witnessed ages pass and many mortal lives start and end. Yet their intention to create balance in a world full of evils and good determined to make it unstable, the Champion has been known to take on various mortals to help make the world a little more stable. After all, he was once a mortal man too, and no man should walk alone forever, nor carry a burden alone.
