Character Backstory:Beivan was born before Humans owned Ulna Themar, to a Soldier and a Doctor, he loved his parents very much, life was good, Then the Humans attacked and laid siege to the city hoping to take it over for a reason beyond Beivan, His Father died defending the walls while his Mother died trying to save him, eventually the Human’s won and the head’s of his family and friend’s adorned the walls.

Then to make matter’s worst, his home was taken from him and given to a family of human immigrants, Beivan had nothing else to do but cry in a alley all day and night until his eventual death of starvation, Beivan swore that he would make the human race pay for their crimes in time, no matter how long it would take. Beivan was a patient man.

But one day a Monk named Elanan met him and offered him a home in return that Beivan served the monastery, Beivan agreed and joined the monks, who trained him in the arts of fighting and religion, His family was replaced by his god and his fellow Monks.

But Beivan wanted revenge, he wanted a city free of Humans and restored to it’s former glory, so he asked Elanan how he could do this, Elanan told him about the legendary lost artifact of Eteyar and if it is found, he will likely get his wish, So Beivan became obsessed with it and searched far and wide for it, Centuries passed and he grew older and older, he almost gave up until he found a map to where the artifact could be.

But the Journey would be deadly and he would likely die if he went alone, none of the other monks wanted to help him so he hired the adventurer’s to help him find it.

Treasure: A Map to the artifact
Earing in the shape of a tear drop, made out of tears

Here is my character!. I copied the character from a character sheet I made earlier, here is the original https://character-sheet-dnd5.appspot.com/#fileIds=0B6C569xZxSL2WU9ubjNGUlV2Vmc&userId=105331180067962710517

[Joshua Tamashii]

@Game Maker do we roll our own stats or do you do that?

[Game Maker]

@GreenHood I will not be allowing Kobolds as a playable race.

[Game Maker]

@Joshua Tamashii Either, bare in mind there are house rules for creating a character, mainly as far as it concerns your skills (so feel free to fill out the CS if you know how, just know you'll have to change the skills section once I get the house rules up).

[Game Maker]

House Rule for Skills:

When I was first learning how to play my DM had a house rule that I've used in all of my own campaigns. For your first level you get 10 skill points to invest in any skill you like, you don't have to be proficient in it. NOTE: Modifiers will still apply to these skills so if you have 4 skill points invested in persuade but your charisma modifier is -3 you would technically have 1 usable skill point in persuade. Every level you get an additional 3 points to spend at that time. At certain levels you will get 5 instead of 3 skill points. You can also find scrolls or other items in game that may grant either a temporary or permanent boost to certain skills.

@Game Maker

So we'll have 16 points to spend since all characters will be level 3

[Game Maker]

@Joshua Tamashii Yes

[Bishop]

@Game Maker What about the permanent modifiers? You get them in game right? Can't just say that....my character found, let's say 7 of them in his travels...?

[Joshua Tamashii]

@Bishop he did say there would be scrolls that can grant a permanent boost to skills in the house rule.

[Warborn123]

@Game Maker added skills to my cs

[Game Maker]

@Bishop Permanent boosts will be added throughout the game. I will also, once having reviewed your CS possibly grant extra perks based on your background. I don't typically announce that as people have tried to sneak in powerful weapons that way by saying they stole a legendary weapon and are on the run because of it.

[Game Maker]

@Warborn123 Add 2 skills points to medicine because one of your parents was a doctor and probably taught you something. You can move your character to the character tab.

[Game Maker]

@Warborn123 I won't make you add it into your character sheet again but I rolled randomly to give you a trinket from the trinket table. You have a teardrop earing made from a real tear drop. Just for your reference should it come up in the campaign that you need such an item......

Character Backstory:
Riven awoke from his peaceful slumber sixth months ago in a graveyard during a stormy night. Rising from the earth gasping for breathe, with scattered, fleeting memories racing through his head of forests, a great fire, and then a peaceful darkness, broken only by a voice speaking of a task before he burst from the earth.

Confused, the newborn undead slowly collected himself before heading into town. It did not take him long to realize he was not welcome there, a fact that was helped by him being run out by a mob with pitchforks and torches. Running into the night, Riven narrowly avoided execution by the mob and wandered through the surrounding countryside. During his wonderings, he took stock of the items he had been reborn with and the skills he seemed to know despite not knowing how he had learned them. Eventually he came across another town and entered after taking the precautions needed to hide his undead nature. Falling in with a group of adventurers who needed someone with his talents, Riven enjoyed their company for several months before his calling suddenly hit him. Feeling he might get closer to his rest again, he set off to the unknown, following wherever his instincts were taking him.

Treasure:

[Game Maker]

@Joshua Tamashii You can move your character to the character tab. Your "treasure" is a glass eye. I wonder why these treasures might be important......

@Game Maker

It's a magical glass eye that lets the god of death that brought him back keep an eye on him... wait, they can do that anyway... eye of true seeing?

[Viciousmarrow]

I never realized how adorable forest gnomes were... Probably going to have to play one of those. xD

Character Backstory:
Orphaned as a baby by a red dragon attacking her home village and being the only survivor the young girl was taken in by silver dragon named Aiserru who found a kinship in the child and named her Renalyssa. Bringing her back to her lair in a castle high atop a mountian Ren was raised by Aiserru as she began to show signs of having a bit of dragon blood in her, inheriting magical abilities that she was taught to control by the dragon as she also told her tales of powerful knights and defenders of the weak, often bringing back gifts and trinkets for Renalyssa when she would go out on her long journeys and would sometimes be months away from their home. During these long times where she would be away Renalyssa sometimes made her way down the small villages to interact with other humans and various other races. Following her own drive to explore and learn more about the surrounding world. Eventually this lead to her making the decision to leave her home, heading out during one of Aiserru's extrusions she left him a message not saying where she was going but what she was doing, knowing that she would understand.
Not long after her journey had started Renalyssa came upon a place where the veil between the material plane and the Elemental Chaos was thin and she accidentally stumbled upon an ancient crystal dragon who called himself the Dimensional Maestro, or the Great Watcher. He was an ancient being and a dragon the size of a mountain who seemed happy to meet her and Ren spent several months in his presence asking questions and speaking with this being until he made a deal with her and granted the young human some of his powers on the agreement that she would be his agent, one who would guide those who needed the aid on their paths to a greater a fate. Parting with him now driven by a greater purpose than to just explore.
