@JamaisVu,
I am moving your conversation about your character here and hiding her in the roster to preserve any secrecy that may arise from the players who I have yet to add to the board.
As I wrote in my last PM I am seriously considering creating a version of the character I am playing in one game that is so frustrating and depressing for me. I am not certain I can rebuild her with the stat array and racial bonuses in play for this game though.
First idea is to have her not enter the game as one of the champions, but as a companion. or something like that. She will then be unexpectedly chosen to step up and replace one of them.I want to help you work this into the campaign if possible. I have a few Wonderful Awful ideas I want to interject if I may based on things you've revealed to me in PMs prior to agreeing to join the game.
If I am thinking right, Kris' biggest frustration is not knowing who is really is in terms of her true heritage. Correct? I am here to help with any questions or problems you might have with her items and making her little friend in the rules I have set up.

Yay! I am submitting what I have so far for Kris. It's kinda a mess while I sort through the old details I copied and pasted from her sheet from the original version.

If I put 5 pts into Chaos, I can summon and bind greater demons, right?
I want to build Blue as my 8th level cohort. Is there any way he could be something other than the demons listed? Maybe something unique?
Oh, and should the stat for a demon weapon based on dexterity and finesse use strength or dexterity to determine its bonus?
Weapon: DEX 18+1d4 /STR, CON 2d6+6/INT, WIS, CHA 3d6
Blue: DEX 18+1d4 /STR, CON 2d6+8/INT, WIS, CHA 3d6

Yes. You can build your buddy as a unique demon. There are many races of demons listed in the material I have. The ones listed for summoning and binding are simply the most commonly used.
Hmmm? Let me add a few details about Greater demons/virtues in my notes. DEX based weapons should use DEX as its prime attribute for determining bonuses.
Greater demons have a prime attribute of 18+1d4 and access to more special abilities.

Let's say she has 15,000 gp worth of wealth to buy other equipment and normal (non-magical) items.

Some question for you, when you have time...
These are addressed to Kris.
What three events in your life prove you aren't like the herd?
Examples: Born in a mausoleum, Touched by an Ethos Lord as a child, My thirteenth birthday coincided with an eclipse
What motivates you most?
Examples: Revenge, Love, Greed
What makes you so special?
Examples: I rose from the dead after three days, I am the child of a greater being, I was born different (6 fingers in each hand, heterochromia, both physical genders)
Do you have existing family? If yes, what is your currently relationship with them?
Examples: Yes, No, I don't know/Thick as thieves, Estranged, Who gives a shit?
Have you ever been in an intimate relationship? With who and how did it, or is it, going?
Examples: No, Yes, Fuck you!/[Insert name here], Great while it lasted, Hot and always conflicted, We've simply grown apart
What other question do you wish I had asked and what is your answer?

OOC:
I will think on these and fill in as I find time.I was born with superior speed and mental abilities. As a result, growing up, most of those around me seemed slow and stupid. The antics of other children bored me and I keep very few friends.
Sometime in my early childhood my mother bargained off my soul to a contract devil and I had to win it back as a teenager.
I single-handedly rescued a Prince and was granted land and a title when I was still in my late teens.
What motivates you most?
Knowledge and the search for answers
What makes you so special?
I am a natural born summoner and binder of demons. I summoned and bound my first as a child of nine and it has remained my constant companion ever since. I graduated top of my class in demonology at the academy.
Do you have existing family? If yes, what is your currently relationship with them?
I sense that my father still exists, but I've never met him. My mother vanished ten years ago according to my research, but I don't know it she is alive or dead. I don't really care.
Have you ever been in an intimate relationship? With who and how did it, or is it, going?
Only once. It lasted about two years until I graduated and my roommate, Tamblyn, moved on to attend a bard's college. We're still close friends, but rarely see each other since.
What other question do you wish I had asked and what is your answer?
What is you greatest pet peeve?
Stupidity and the people around you who constantly act stupid.

@JamaisVu,
Go ahead and repost Kris' profile and put it under private tags.
I have some ideas how to make this work. ATM, I am thinking the Champion she is companion to will be used as a plot device. Whether that is an NPC I, you, or we create or is that of a player who bows out of the campaign early on.

I found this by accident while looking for images for a different character today. I think it really fits Kris after her coming out and matches the hooded figure well enough.
I can't help but associate her coming out to become a Champion to the transformation of Rogue in the X-men, from her membership in the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants to the X-men.

@JamaisVu,
Unless something changes with the roster of players before we get started, I am going to say that Kris is a companion to Killian Maal and leave most of his companions blank, to be taken up by the ones Kris chooses on her sheet.

Cool by me.
I only now have come to realize how much of Kris' originally background I wrote for her was lost when I had to change a lot of it to match the story the old DM wrote over to go along with what she wanted it to be. Never asked what I thought about it and obviously didn't care.
I added some of what I can remember back into Kris' new sheet.

@JamaisVu,
Setting up your opening scene. This will begin in media res, and will then pan away to a flashback, before the opening scene concludes and the story develops from there. With the conclusion of all the opening scenes, I will post them as a montage in the main forum so everyone can see the development of the story.
Please, either choose or roll a number between 1 and 7 (1d7)
Then, make three skill checks: Arcana, History, and Religion all at (DC 15) with Advantage. Add the points together of failure or success on each.

Roll a random 1d4

@JamaisVu, RageRed has proposed a scene where Tajuri invites Kris to come along with she and her demon girlfriend for a girl's night out. How does that sound to you?
