August Rewards 22 Xilarial (Patreon)

Known as Xilarial the Inspiration, she is a lizard folk Cleric who worships the great old one Yomagn'tho the Feaster from the stars. She comes from a super xenophobic village of cannibalistic Lizard Folk in the forest. They are constantly at war with the serpent folk who live a ways away in the woods because the Serpents are cunning and kind of sarcastic and the Lizard people have no sense of humor.

Xilarial wanted to experience the world and in the name of the feaster, consume as many other creatures as she could while learning ways to spread the name and influence of her god. She was dubbed "The Inspiration" because of her being inspired to spread her religion through the world. 

She traveled alone for a while, and soon found a weird circus. Inside a group of adventurers had been captured by the evil ring master and so she stepped in to help. They sent her into the maze of mirrors where she faced off against a giant centipede and ate it. Her new allies worked along side her to fight the strange people in the freak show and eventually faced off against the ring master who summoned an avatar of the Elder God Chaugnar Faugn, whom was named Trombipulo. They defeated the avatar and joined forces with Stormalong the pumpkin man, Nanus the samsaran possessed by Hastur, Galward the Dwarf Prince, Kyu the Kitsune Bard, Mortasheen the mischievous monkey ninja, and his equally troublesome cousin Wu before heading out into the world. 

Galward was quite taken in by Xilarial's appetite, exotic beauty, and unrivaled strength and determination and was quickly smitten, and as the young lizard was easily impressed the two of them quickly became a couple. Sometime soon after, her brother Xiladriel the Fury, a war priest, arrived and battled against Galward. Xilarial broke them up and her brother told her that the village was being overcome by the Serpent folk and they needed her to fight, and she insisted her friends come, and after some rough convincing, they were able to come along to the village...

The story of Xilarial will be concluded in the next post (Up to how far I've reached in that campaign anyway).
