Just dressing in skins does NOT a shaman or witch doctor make. Keep in mind that all shamans go through a near death experience, with some actually dying and coming back. This is absolutely essential to become a shaman. A witch doctor, on the other hand, doesn't go through the same spirit journey. And voodoo is a whole other kettle of fish. You need to either invent something that fits, rather than try to force the square pegs into the round holes, or revise your basic premise to fit these concepts since they really don't work otherwise.

We have had a couple of reader-directed stories posted here, and we do allow them, within certain parameters. The voting and discussion does need to take place here on the forums, but if you use the threads where we have review replies, guests can read and respond to your post. This gives everyone a chance to vote and discuss the story. The basic premise of the story can be treated as a prologue, I believe, which would make it story content. An author's note of no more than 600 words explaining how this works, with the url for the forum thread, is fine. We don't have a specific tag for a reader-directed story, but we do ask that you tag for what content you think will be included, and if anything unexpected comes up, you can tag that specific chapter with the additional warnings as an author's note. In short, we'll work with you to make this story work for you and the readers, within our ToS. We're good at that.

Witch doctors are largely African, rather than Native American. Shamans have their roots in the steppes of Mongolia.

Just because I need to pick nits a little, shamans would probably replace witch doctors, or at least that would be the traditional role. And it's Archon, I believe...

Berserkers were shamans as well - holy men - and infused with the power of their totems. They'd be the male counterpart, or as close as one could come, to the Valkyrie, who were minor goddesses. The notion of celestial Asian warriors is non-existent outside anime, and wouldn't fit with the world you're building. LotR/D&D type lore is about as removed as one can get from Asian lore. But you always have the trump card of any writer... make it up. Imagination is the key here.

Welcome to the second half of a rather unwieldy fanfic that's been a work in progress for quite some time. The second half is still being written, but I'm cleaning up and posting what I have so far. Author: BronxWench Title: Stormborn: Book 2 Summary: A young genasi confronts a unique birthright while facing a darkness that brought an empire to its knees. All she can count on are mysterious shards and an acerbic elf with a dark past. Whether they will be enough remains to be seen. Feedback: Yes, please! http://www2.adult-fanfiction.org/forum/index.php/topic/21690-bronxwenchs-review-replies/ Fandom: Neverwinter Nights 2 (including the Mask of the Betrayer expansion) Warnings: Fingering,M/F,MiCD,Oral Solo story or chaptered story: Chaptered URL: http://games.adult-fanfiction.org/story.php?no=600089661 I do recommend either having played the game, or reading the first book prior to diving into this. It begins with Chapter 41, when the young genasi has finished her trial by combat, and learns more of the truth.
