Character Creation

I’m fine with however we met. My backstory has my celestial Patron guiding me to do good, so I could have been led to meetup and aide Baroth in some past quest, or led to any of the others as long as they’d aren’t evil alligned. I see him as more of a wanderer staying and helping for a short while until moving on when I’m being led away.

I like that. I can role with that.

That works, maybe you guys hired me shortly after he left his home to assist in dealing with the bandits connected to this cult. He'll be sticking it out with you guys because he likes the company nevermind the payment, he informs you all that if you just buy him a round each, the debts settled.

Keep in mind though, he is a little... odd.

Seems like we are all in agreement.

Yup!

I'm good with everything

Welcome Silver.hawk! Once the players get out of their current sticky situation, your character will join the game at 3rd level. Feel free to go back through the threads to get a read on what type of campaign this is.

As far as explaining why you're here, we have limited options. My idea is that you are either lost and ended up traveling through the Svalich woods or investigating the recent disappearances of those traveling this direction.. It would be quite useful if your character recognized one of the PC's already.

Ok. How much time (realtime) do I have before I should be ready? I just looked at the party comp and am thinking of maybe a cleric or bard for support purposes. I'm fine with being a healer and I saw that Coach and Titan have some healing capabilities but not a main. Also, how much RPing are you expecting?

Anywhere between 3 days and a week. That's sounds like a good idea. A fair amount would be nice but you can do however much you like.

Cool. I'll start building my char then. Btw, I work overnights Sun night-Thurs night. Hopefully that doesn't cause any issues. I will be checking on posts whenever I able to.

Cool. Depending on how much time we have, we might even do a pre-adventure of sorts of you traveling Svalich road and reaching the township of Barovia while the rest finish up what they're doing.

Character check please? I used point buy for skills and for the Hit Points after 1st lvl I used the "5+CON modifier" method.

I didn't come up with a backstory because I still need to read what's happened already with the group and I don't know the locale or lore that I'm appearing in. Also, haven't picked a deity for same reasons.

We're using the forgotten realm pantheon and I transcribed the events in the "timeline" thread of the World Guide. We are in the Forgotten Realms setting and are near the Daggerfel area.

Also, you must submit the character to my game so i can view it.

Submitted

It looks fine to me except that you put the gold value you use if you buy all your equipment. 10gp is the correct amount granted by your background.

Now that all the technical stuff is over with, lets work out why your character would be where the others are right now. Try to make a backstory with the limited amount of information and then you can decide whether or not you would like to play out your journey to the town while we wait or begin when you all join together.

I wrote a bit of a backstory to explain my divine magic but I'm not sure how I will meet up with the group. I set out on a journey from my village to aid those in need and spread my deitys influence so it might make sense that I would stumble across them at their current location.

Perhaps. I think it would fit better thematically if you, in your journey, became hopelessly lost in a fog and ended up traveling down the road toward Barovia. It could also be that you've had dealings with a party member in the past. This would make joining the party very easy. Volunteers?
