Secrets of the Greenwold PC creation/advancement

Nice!!! I'm the same way, though just in general I'm very slow on my feet, so I find PbP to be much better! Glad to have you along here.

One of the things that I recommended for PCs in this game is to create connections with two or more other PCs. So here's an idea for Redamancy and Kilikina (who are making the new PCs) to help with creating connections: ALL of the characters came from Mara and were trying to get out...it's just that Kilikina's and Redamancy's PCs got out a bit earlier (like Biggs in Star Wars). So the PCs will have that shared background in common as a foundation for connections when the "old" PCs meet up with the new ones as we begin the second adventure in the campaign.

Or, if there's another basis for connection between the PCs that you can think of (filial, cultural, backgrounds, shared experience) for the new characters, I'd love to see that instead.

Ooo, I think the other newbie and I could create some bond for our characters as they add-in. Maybe we can have a little chat in private and link our stories in a manner that compliments us both joining the original party in the next chapter of the saga.

I do have some general questions in shaping my character backstory for GM that I will send a PM for.

So is mine / Elowin

I am still working on my sheet and finalizing details (spells, etc) but I have submitted Valyra’s character to the game roster.

Hey, I’ve finished up a Custom sheet for Bram, to replace the current one. If you don’t mind to delete the existing sheet, and quote back or let me know when, then I’ll add the new sheet. There is no rush.
Thanks so much!

Yes, I saw that. Thank you! Here's some private comments and questions:

I've removed "Bram (Level 1);" you may submit the new Bram at your leisure.

Hai guys! So happy to actually be able to play this time! :D I'm going to play a rogue, unless anyone has issues with it. It's a character I can put together easily and I'm fairly familiar with. I'm sorry she wasn't ready today, but I can have her ready to play by tomorrow no problem.

Let's see how this roll turns out, and then see if I'm going to go standard myself lol

I think I'll keep this...

Welcome to the game Kilikina!

Don’t mind me. Just sitting here salivating over Kili’s rolls.

Thanks Grifter! So excited to play with my new friends again! :D And don't worry Red, you'll get to benefit from my awesomeness lol

Wonderful, and welcome to both of our new players!

I would gladly have Elowin recognise someone on the streets. Just let me know and we can create something. See Elowins sheet for her backstory

In previous, it is entirely possible someone may have run into Elysia and Eozindra; the pair travel together to keep each other company, and watch out for one another. It’s dangerous to be a lone woman on the road!

Eozindra is a performer and will pick up gigs in taverns or set up to busk in market streets where appropriate. She most frequently performs with a flute. She usually picks shaded spots when she plays outside since she was born with albinism. She’s very noticeable when she is trying to be seen and heard (and sometimes when she isn’t trying), and it definitely gives her an edge when she is performing.

The half-elf bard is very thinly built, barely breaking triple digits for her weight and stands about 5’4". It looks like a moderate breeze might knock her over. She has pallid porcelain skin though she generally uses a little rouge to make sure her cheeks shine with a lively blush. Her eyes are a pale lilac and her hair is let loose and free to fall in a mess of platinum, silvery white curls. She wears simple traveling attire, all very nondescript and bland in comparison to her complexion and pigmentation. Breeches, boots, a light bodice for some protection, a blouse with swashbuckler sleeves that billow, and a light cloak for sun protection. Pretty standard traveling bard gear.

I will update with an image once I finish it.

If anyone would like to build a connection, let me know if you have an idea!

Morik is a lover of stories and legends and the like. If the bard has those to share, it’s likely that he would’ve bought her drinks/meal in exchange for stories. Might be that her tales (maybe with her albinism made her stick out in his mind).

Absolutely! She would definitely accept a meal and beverage in exchange for stories. She would have recited epic poetries and told stories of adventure. Think like Princess Bride, with pirates and giants and sword fights! She is extremely personable and would also ask for any interesting anecdotes or quirks she could add to her repertoire. She would also have been extremely interested in hearing about Morik’s life on the outskirts and everything happening beyond the city. She’d absolutely recognize him if she saw him pass by again.

Sounds good to me! Is she Elysia or Eozindra?
