Molly Jennings is the daughter of farming folk, raised simply and in a loving home.
As a thirteen year old, when her homeland was threatened by invasion, however, she decided that she could not ask defence of others if she was not wiling to offer it herself, and joined the recruits at the army. The diminutive girl was ridiculed for her size and stature, but worked hard, and the little curly-haired girl learned the sklls of arms and armour. Her moment came when she was confronted by a warlock serving The Apostle of False Faith, and she began to glow, smiting down the warlock with holy power. The soldiers with her began to idolize her, serving her orders directly rather than those of their superiors. Although this caused some conflict to begin with, the general of the army soon recognized the morale value she had with any regiments she passed by, and isolated her troops from the command structure, equipping them with better gear and sending them on special missions. Over the last year, Molly Jennings has become revered as a living saint, and news of her arrival brings hope to beleaguered soldiers in need of aid. Statistics: Despite being a 14-year old girl, Molly has the statistics of a 7th-level Paladin. Her Chosen Warriors are 2nd-level Fighters in masterwork full plate, and are her faithful defenders, bringing her aid at the cost of their lives if necessary. Molly is determined, but a little naive, and could do with some help sometimes. In demeanour, Molly is calm and confident, lending her hope to all those who see her. How you can use Molly Jennings in your game: - Molly works well as an unexpected reinforcement if your Player Characters are threatened by evil forces. She and her soldiers can fight the larger battle, but might ask your PCs to perform an important duty, like destroying a ritual circle, or defeating a spellcaster. - If your PCs have become allies to Molly, she might ask for their aid in a mission that seems difficult for her, or where she doesn't understand something. She doesn't want to undermine the trust her sodiers have in her wisdom, but she can also recognize when she needs help. - A disturbing rumour is spreading that Molly's power comes at the cost of an infernal bargain. Your PCs might have to combat foes both physical and political, trying to root out the source of such vileness as well as battling those who would see Molly dead. And the rumours are starting to affect her confidence, and her powers as a result. Also posted on Game Masters Stash on 3 May 2019. Comments are closed.
