#tibet-inspired

For Umran, my character, I wanted to do an asian inspired take on a Paladin. Not a monk, because I wanted him to still be armoured. So I took the idea of a religious warrior, and tried to make the base religion different from catholicism, and add a focus on spirituality. Which is why I made him a Kalashtar (Secret Identity background so I guess in game no one really knows he’s a Kalashtar or that Umran is technically not even his real name). Although his origins are a secret, it’s fairly obvious that he’s foreign so he doesn’t hide that he’s foreign and his design leans into that. In fact he takes advantage of how other’s perceive him a the “exotic foreigner” and hides his true identity in plain sight. Umran was really about putting different spins on a Paladin. Different base religion, more DPS leaning, not lawful, a rogue-ish-like personality, etc.
