Hiya!
If anyone is looking to write more about their character's backstory, now that we have started in with your initial gameplay, I'll wait before posting much more. (SORRY to literally leave Tas hanging at the moment.) I have a good basic idea about how all your characters' stories/plots intertwine, but before having you character's interact much more with the world, I would like to incorporate any ideas you have for your characters and their acquaintances.
oopsylon, anything about Admiral's (former) crew you have ideas on is welcome and/or perhaps one of past Admirals adventures with them?
RageRed, similarly, you could develop some other of your circus troop members and/or describe a past adventure with the troupe.
JamaisVu, you could develop a little more about your birth barbarian tribe, that is a brutal seafaring people who dominate the Addakian Sound on the southern continent. And/or if you rather, you could talk about any survival adventures on the Jungle Coast after your were left there by your father and before you were found by your master.
You all could put anything like that in your backstory thread. Anyway none of this is mandatory. If you rather just have me to continue to flesh out that stuff, I'm willing and okay with that. Just let me know either way.
