I though about my character and decided to go against my monk idea. Instead I am going be doing a disgraced nobleman. One who joins a mercenary company, not for money, but for death honorable battle. One who is arrogant and annoyingly shouts out," Take that, Peasant!" to each man he kills, regardless of whether he is a peasant or not. =D Just your friendly neighborhood gay boy! =)

NotFishing, good sir? Pray tell me, good sir, Is it overpowered for my arrogant nobleman to be riding a heavily armored war horse?

Not overpowered, no, but you'll definitely stand out - no one has else in the company has a horse (unless other RPers choose to give their character one.) Just a few mules to carry provisions.

They can. Expect to be burned at the nearest stake if anyone ever catches you. And most of the gods will hate you, effectively screwing you out of most of the afterlives. The only gods who won't hate you are:
-Drakus
-Arenar
-Rorak
-Every Caretaker except Mortem, but they've all been totally indifferent to you to begin with.
-The Aspects of Evil.

The soul must be pulled out as they die, and it requires a great deal of energy, and the item you intend to enchant must be immediately on hand. Beneath the gold, the Bitter Steel.

I should probably specify: when I say they hate you, that's an exaggeration. They won't go out of their way to hinder or stop you, but don't expect any favors. Beneath the gold, the Bitter Steel.

I get the feeling the aspects will hate my character even if he doesn't tie enemy souls to his equipment, given his intention to become immortal. (By finding a better way than becoming undead, enslaved or fucked over by some malevolent force) I am Inferi.

That seems like a good goal. There are definitely other ways to gather dark power. Sacrificing the local Priestess of Klora to a dark god just happens to be one of the easier routes. Good on you for not taking shortcuts.

But if you found a way to gain immortality that doesn't hurt anyone, most of the Aspects will be fine with it. So long as you don't start calling yourself a god. Or act like one. Beneath the gold, the Bitter Steel.
