Out of Character Discussion

Hey everyone, feel free to ask questions here, or talk about whatever.

Working on Eldritch Knight right now.

Alrighty, cool thing.

Submitted the character, still fleshing out some details (spell selection)

Do we need detailed backstory? If yes - some rough details about the world would be nice :)

Yes. However, you don't really need details because I want you to create your backstory, and name the terrain, the location, and whatever yourself, and I can create off of that. I feel like that gives the player more of a connection to the world. PM me your story.
-All you need to know though is that Sieldar is the name of the world, and Seren is the capital city filled with diversity, but mainly humans.
-Lady Light is the most commonly worshipped deity, but if you seek other gods, you may ask me which type you worship, and I'll tell you who it is.
-The world is just barely starting to be covered by Darkness forces, and the Night, so your backstory should consist of normal life before Darkness took over, and of course what happened when he attacked.
-Darkness has taken over most of the world, and Seren is the last hope, so put in how you got there. (Seren is the starting area)
-Any questions about specifics, just ask what you need.

Cool, I can work with that :)
I'll PM you backstory for revision tomorrow

Sorry for the delay, sent the backstory just now

Hello, all! I may repurpose a gnome warlock for this adventure if that's alright with you?

Sure thing!

Thanks for the invite Im_That_0n3_Guy! I'll start working on a character this weekend, should have him/her mostly if not 100% complete with backstory by Monday. Sounds like so far we currently have an Eldritch Knight and a Warlock?

Yes, make sure you read character generation info before creating your character. I have certain stats I want you to use for whomever you make.

Yep, I see the static numbers there no problem. Question regarding character generation; are we going to be strangers at the outset of the adventure? If not I might like to get a rundown on everyone's backstories as they become available.

Yup I will update with correct stats and level my char tonight.

Read my old post above regarding how I want backstories. PM the backstory first, and then I will create a sub thread for everybodies characters where you can post the backstory, picture, and traits/features for everyone to see. If you wish it to be secret, then just let me know. Moofsalot, I rejected your character solely because you didn't follow any of the character generation info, so sorry. If you would please revise it, I would be happy to approve it when it's done.

Seems like you're giving us a lot of leeway with regards to backstory and specific details. Sounds like this is what you want but just wanted to let you know I'm probably going to run with that and get into a decent amount of world-building for my char's part of the region.

Go right ahead. I want you to feel more connected to the world than just the usual pre-built worlds we're all used too, especially Faerun.

Hello! I'm thinking of going for an Aarakocra Cleric, if you don't mind. I will PM stuff about his location and race!

I am actually in the middle of building a cleric, but let me know if you have your heart set on it and I can think of something else. Or we can just have 2 clerics, couldn't hurt I guess :)
