Tenets of Faith

Loyalty is a lie and servitude is slavery. Serve none but yourself and that which you judge to be worthy with your own sound mind. You owe nothing to anyone.

Be an advocate for freedom, absent of control both good and evil. Embrace and assist the Outcast, as they often do the most to advance their cause or race.

Master every weapon and learn every technique. Assimilate all the styles and techniques you discover to honor his name.

Never draw a weapon if you lack the resolve to use it. Once drawn, don't sheath it until the deed is done and always finish what you start.

Seek out, restore, and remember all which is forgotten and abandoned. Give them a home, repair them, and fix them to honor The Pale Blade.

History

Born from the loins of the Bloodthirster long before the dawn of time in his one and only tryst with the then matron deity of the elves Lolth before she fell to darkness, Savusonn wandered as a demigod for ages, split between his father and mother's ideals and with none to truly call his own...it was not until his mother attempted to sway him to her side in a failed plot that would have led to his enslavement at her hands that Savusonn saw his parents for who they truly were.
As his father raged and demanded he join him at his side in a conquest against the drow and his mother for what she'd nearly done to him, Savusonn is said to have seen the failings of those who subscribe wholeheartedly to the service of another, even the gods...and found them wanting. He then began to wander, finding his true beliefs of freedom and giving a home to all outcasts and those forgotten.
Now, he actively works against his mother Lolth who he sees as the ultimate tyrant, striving to free her followers from eternal servitude to her even as he ignores the advances of his father, who he sees as better, but still flawed as he demands such strict obedience from his followers. However, the two get along in quite a prickly fashion, unlike him and his mother, who he has sworn to cast down and destroy.
