Character Concepts

Ooh, an Aasimar! I was considering Tiefling, but that might now be a bit too cliche. Hmm, back to the drawing board.

People spit on my kind. Call us cursed for our fiendish blood.
Expect us to be murderers, cultists or whatever spawn of evil their minds can conjure.
Some of my kind work hard to prove them wrong.
I don't bother. To the pits with all of them.
If they won't give me a fair chance, I'll be everything they hate, and more.

Ryel is a young man who started studying smithing at a young age, hoping to make a good enough living to live comfortably. Nothing extravegant or lavish, just clean clothes in good repair, a clean home in good repair, and good food.

Along the way, he realized many people -- no matter how hard they worked -- would never be able to lift themselves out of where they were in life. He saw people living in squalor, hungry, struggling to get by. He saw others who wanted for nothing -- many of whom never truly worked for what they had.

Ryel decided food on the tables of the poor was more important than coins in the coffers of the wealthy, and decided to help who he could, even if laws would not look kindly on his actions... because good people don't let others suffer if they can help it.

Ryel started trying to study magic, seeing it as supremely useful... both for his business, and for his greater goals. But... he just wasn't good at it. He learned a little, even enough to summon an... owl?... to his side, but he wasn't truly getting it. The books overwhelmed him, the words devolving into a jumbled mess in his mind. So, when the shadows late one night on his walk home offered him a quicker path, he siezed it.

Try female tieflings who are not in their underwear....

Actually never had issues finding good female Tiefling art when I've needed some. There's plenty of T&A, sure, but lots of other stuff exists.

The problem with finding "average" character art is, everyone tends to exagerate... commoners are barefoot with tattered rags as clothes, to emphasize being poor. Rogues look like they're either Assassin's Creed characters or hollywood pirates. Guild artisans or merchants are fat, old, and dressed like royalty to emphasize their wealth. It's largely because everyone wants their character to stand out.

But when you want your character to just look like an average cityfolk? D&D doesn't do "average."

Can't wait to start. Super excited

Agreed!!

Wooo. Nice avatars! Wow. 10 of us here. Massive size game.
