LUTHER BERTHOLD
For origin story for here: “When Your Faith Can Crush You”. Currently, he is en-route to Credia with his father to see if he can be accepted as a Witch-Hunter to Xerx’ses – the Unyielding Strength of Osiris. He has long amber brown somewhat curly hair shaved often on the sides and pulled into a ponytail behind his head. He has a small goatee he is growing into a braided beard like the images of Osiris and the Pontiff. His muscles are corded but tight, and often mislead people into misjudging Luther’s strength. The minute he has a chance he thinks he might be able to find the lost Flail of Prayers. He is a strong fan of CrIsis and doubly so of Xerx’ses.
He did become ordained after the “Purging of New Haven”, however, it was as a War Priest and not the Witch Hunter. Without warning Thoth appeared before Bishop Rose Nodeki and Luther saying that he would take on the task of granting mystical abilities of Xerx’ses first priest but he needed him for a mission. Luther agreed to serve in any way the gods needed and a ring appeared on his finger much like the CrIsis ring. The torch symbol appeared within an Eye of Thoth sigil. Thoth gave him an hour to make ready and he would come for him then. Luther was given access to the armory to take anything that would fit and then when he said he was ready he vanished! More can be learned by reading the log: “Destiny Awaits”

| Standrok’s Stalwart Saber | 6D6+9 |  Made by the Dwarf Grandmaster Smith Marko Standrok (E.T. pg 99)Designed as a wide saber/falchion with a ring built into the thin, angular hand guard. Luther beat the previous owner in a bar fight for knowledge of the Tale of the Courtesan’s Pilgrimage. It was made as one of the Dwarf smith’s masterwork pieces and according to the book would fetch a price of 240,000 in gold. It has raised more than a few eye brows and has helped to enable Luther to beat further opponents. The Eastern Knight’s family is NOT happy loosing it the way their youngest did.
