[@Coda]: Sorry, I was in a little bit of a rush when I first judged your bio and may have missed some things. That's my fault, and I apologize. The bio seems a bit all over the place honestly. The backstory seems a bit like a string of random events. Nothing here is terribly off-base(griffins exist and are dangerous predators and all that) though, it just doesn't feel like it leads the most logically to the conclusion. But the main point I'd say is that the rune, given its effects, should be a bit more of a significant event then a sudden accident(and would be understood easily if that was the case given tattooed spells are a thing). You also need to explain the phantasmal sword a lot more, I need to know what we're working with in that regard. I'd also probably not accept more copper-level adventurers if he stays copper, since too many would bring down the challenge rating that the guild would allow a party to accept and be restrictive for us to work with as GMs.
