Shoup

(pronounced SHOWP)

Shoup was Mikes' character in Ricks' AD&D game.  The apprentice of

a necromancer, shoup had no interest in necromancy.  But when his master died, his

experiments began to come after Shoup.  Taking his masters staff and undead horse,

Shoup rode off in search of knowledge and a cure to the plauge of evil sweeping Athra.

I always liked Shoup, he was an interesting character played well.
