House Ixtab is one of the great houses of Asylum. Their words are - "Suspended from her hands." Their sigil is a black bar wrapped in a coil of rope.
Born a "nonbeliever", as almost all citizens of Asylum are, the Dame was converted at the age of seven when her village was assimilated by the empire. Her only memories from before the arrival of the Necromongers are full of deprivation and hardship. She was picked out from the group of surviving children by the matron Maya Ixtab, who wanted a daughter and had been given permission from the Lord Marshal to find one amongst the newly purified. Whatever her given name was, it was left behind as she was renamed "Tabay" and brought into House Ixtab. Raised in the faith, Tabay was dedicated to Kelemvor at her majority, and has risen as a devoted follower in the Basilica in the years since.
Edit: Her goal is conversion or subjugation.
Edit: Ability scores: 141415181416 --> Yuck, nevermind, I'll do standard array.
DM: The Sunless Citadel, Candlekeep Mysteries, Wild Beyond the Witchlight, Death House (One-Shot) Player:B'Etor(Lost Mine of Phandelver), Sunfyre Fields (Tide of Retribution), Annika Fedorovna(Inustwaith - Blizzard's Fury)
Class/subclass: Warlock/The Fiend/Pact of the Tome
Backstory:
Alessa was the product of a union between a Yuan-ti pureblood masquerading as an adviser to a human royal court, and one of the ladies-in-waiting of that court. When Alessa's mother became pregnant, the pureblood convinced everyone that he had nothing to do with it and that she was a woman of low morals. When she was born, Alessa and her mother were ostracized and cast out, losing all their titles and possessions, forced to live on the streets.
Alessa's mother died a few years later of grief and rage and poverty. Alessa managed to survive, but she always swore to herself that she would never follow in her father's footsteps. But when her own powers began to develop, she was feared, mocked and rejected by those around her. Bitter and afraid, she booked passage on a ship to start a new life across the sea. But a great storm arose, and she was shipwrecked on a rocky outcropping, the lone survivor. Full of frustration and rage, she called out to the gods for deliverance, but there was no answer. Finally, she turned to darker powers, asking for rescue, pledging to serve them if they would save her life.
Sseth, the Sibilant Death, god of the Yuan-ti saw a chance to reclaim a stray, and appeared to her, offering to rescue her, and if she would promise to serve him, to grant her power. Seeing no other choice, she accepted. Over time, serving her patron, she has developed similar characteristics of devious plotting, usurping, deceit, and craving power over others.

Name: Lathis Bevin
Race: Tiefling
Class: Warlock/ Fiend patron
Subclass: Pack of the tome
Backstory: Lathis wanted power and he found it through a pack with a fiend. He was elated with the power flowing through his body. Until he felt the dark presence that haunts and gnaws on his self control. He ran into the night terrified of his pact. Lathis almost ran into danger, if it were not for a tiny wisp of a elderly lady. She whispered something and he fell unconscious. When he awoke he found himself chained. Lady Berisa was her name. She took pity on him and taught him self control. Now after finishing her tutilage he walks with iron discipline. At times he wonders if these dark urges he feel comes from himself or his fiendish patron. He chose the life of a traveler to gather power and information by any means necessary.
Backstory: A knife for hire, you need someone removed or to disappear, then Reyya is the Drow for you. Orphaned, grew up in the undercities learning how to be a thief, to move like a shadow, and be stealthy. Eventually, when he became of age, started out as a criminal, then a spy. Found the unique skill of assassination to his liking, the ultimate challenge of the game. He is a harbinger of death, and has accepted it.
Backstory: From day one Marten was trained to get the job done, by any means. As a member of the TEMPLE he is an orphan trained from birth to have no personal morals, the current employer's morals are his morals. He once helped save a village from a group of bandits. Next the land baron over the village hired him to "remove" those same villagers from their land.
Trait: Marten loves Cats, he has a Tiger tattoo on his back and thinks cats are the perfect teacher. The only time he has ever turned on an employer is when he saw that employer kick a cat. He beat that man to death. As punishment for his actions the TEMPLE removed his fingernails.

Wow if selected can I take the ability scores but rework so that the 2 19s are in dex and wis. That's crazy never seen a perfect ability roll let alone 2.
Backstory: Once a Pandion knight, as the wars drug on and when evil seemed to be winning, he decided to invest and learn more of the enemy. He began to dabble in the black arts, to know his enemy better, but in the end, was corrupted by the darkness. He fell from grace, dismissed by his order for breaking his oath to only serve the light. Now he hunts them, to find revenge for his removal and their short-sighted views.
Backstory: His father killed his mother shortly after he was born, and sold the young boy to be an apprentice to a traveling minstrel show. Xanorin has let the rage at his father fester in his heart over the years, thinking of different ways he can exact revenge on him. He joined the secretive College of Whispers in order to learn how to manipulate others to do his will.
Nix has always run with a rough crowd. His previous “associates” were either killed or rounded up in a sting. He was lucky enough to evade the dragnet but now lives with the uncertainty that his surviving former comrades will rat him out to lessen their sentences
He respects strength and distrusts kindness. Altruism is either the height of foolishness or deception, he’s not sure which. He doesn’t consider himself evil, just hardened.
Arizona time zone - we don’t change our clocks.
Trait: Nix is cruel and can have a viscous temper. He has graduated from pulling wings off of flies to eviscerating previous pets when enraged.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Can I ask why the time zone requirement for pbp? Lots of folks in other time zones are up late/early and people in the EST that don’t keep usual hours.

Name: Livilias (the Broken)
Class: Cleric
Race: Human Vaiant
Story: Not the most social or charismatic of priestly scholars, Livilias found himself held back from advancing up the ranks. Despite his profession, Livilias was not the forgiving sort… A little Cause Wounds here, a little there, and soon he was sure to ride to power!
Though he didn’t. Though no evidence was found everyone in the cloister knew in their hearts the cause of the monastery’s recent rash of I’ll luck. Livilias was cast out… but he has every intention of returning one day and making them regret their shortsightedness.
—- Livilias believes himself to be charming and debonair but in truth is a bit slimy and tactless. He believes he will one day be recognized as a scholar without peer though he holds more grudges than knowledge and delights in causing I’ll to those he believes slighted him… if he can get away with it. I’d plan on using feat from Variant for ritual caster to get Find Familiar and Livilias would rejoice in using such to deliver his touch spells so that they could not be traced back to him.
Will work up a character sheet at home, currently on mobile at work…
