Okay, lets cut to the chase. One morning, the villagers of Brightwater-Upon-Ibreth woke up to find their village swarmed by demons. Within hours the entire village was butchered and the monsters returned into the depths below, leaving but a single survivor to tell of the tale. The magisterium believes that the Chthonic forces have breached the ancient wards. Brightwater-Upon-Ibreth was the first. Any number of villages or towns or cities could follow. That's where you come in. An elite task force of experienced mercenaries. Expendable but reliable. Your mission is simple. Follow the demons into the earth, destroy them, and find a way to reseal the wards.
Roll up a 10th level character. Please minmax and munchkin your characters. Combat heavy, roleplay light. DM if you want to use 3rd-party stuff. Bring a rare item and two uncommon items. Feats welcome. Tasha's alternate rules welcome.
You'll be spending most of the time indoors and underground (although this does not necessarily imply small spaces), and while anything could happen, you're generally gonna face fiends.
Keep backgrounds short, but feel free to make your character and effects as flavorful as possible. I'm cool with reflavoring races/classes/abilities, as long as its mechanically the same.
EDIT: 2 filled in, 2 reserved, I might keep it open for a bit longer. AFAIK no healer or pure caster yet.
Backstory: Draco was a simple warrior in a nomadic tribe from a land far off, developing skill with a spear and shield. After winning a tournament he was rewarded with the blood spear, and blessed by Kavan enhancing its property.
Leaving his tribe he traveled the material plan, searching out greater foes to battle against. Refining his power and becoming focused.
Uncommon items: Rapier of Warding, Cloak of Elvenkind
Backstory: From humble beginnings picking pockets to support her family, Breyra soon discovered a talent for the mechanical, becoming adept at cracking safes and disarming traps -- and setting a few of her own. She was surprised, to say the least, when the latest vault she opened contained not the priceless treasure she was expecting, but a single, unarmed human, with an offer of a job she couldn't refuse...
Backstory: Wylieal has always known his purpose. From the time that he could walk, he was raised to fight demonic forces across the realms in the name of the Hells. He was taught to bring law where they rampaged, order to their chaos, and to fight their vile corruption wherever it could be found. And now, the most recent struggle in the Blood War has brought him to the otherwise insignificant town of Brightwater-Upon-Ibreth. Here, he is to seal the demonic forces back into the Abyss, or die trying.
Sheet:WIP (Quel'van will be spamming Eldritch Blast, healing in a pinch and quickening spells like Fairie Fire and Greater Invisibility to gain an Advantage in battle.)
Backstory:Quel'van is a warrior in the service of Queen Titania of the Feywild herself. He was originally trained to battle the Queen's sister, The Queen of Air and Darkness, and her minions. Upon claiming the Staff of the Ivory Claw from one such minion in a battle in the Shadowfel, Titania re-enchanted the staff to now channel her own radiant power. With fiends of the nine hells now threatening other worlds Titania has yet again dispatched Quel'van to battle the forces of evil in yet another world.
Backstory: He was kidnapped to the Fey and recently escaped back to this world. He wanted to repay those that rescued him after he recovered. It took some time but he made his way to the town they called home. As he rounded the bend with great expectations he saw the town, the town of Brightwater-Upon-Ibreth. He has vowed to take vengeance and bring justice to his saviors. He gladly joins the task force.
I'll determine ability scores however you see fit.

Name: Friar Zeal
Race: Moutain Dwarf
Class: Cleric
Backstory: From a noble family in the Gelid Isls. Zeal 11th in line to the throne decided to pursue a path of faith, knowing his chance to ascend to King of his homeland was unlikely at best. His family was not thrilled with the decision, believing that taking a path of faith was below his standing but Zeal did what he thought would fulfill him most. Through his studies he was drawn to the teachings of Helm, God of Protection. He was always a caring person and wanted to help people as best he could. When he completed his studies he took the title of Friar wanting he share his faith with the people. This lead him to leave his beloved Isls of Gelid and seek his on path trying to serve Helm the best he could. Hoping some day to return home and bring honor to his family.
So im old returning to this but I'm new to this online D&D I'm currently in my first pbp on Discord so im still learning avrae commands.
Im interested in possibly finding another pbp and the lvl 10 interests me because most want lvl 1-3 characters.
Is this pbp post being done on dnd beyond forums and is the combat commands similar?
I may be to new to join this for your liking but figured I'd ask.
my bad i didnt see this. if you can make a sheet in a day or two then you can join. I'll probably use DDB unless anyone knows of a superior alternative.
Backstory: Left for dead, stranded alone on the road with nothing Non was approached by a black-clad man, impossibly tall. The man offered Non another chance at life, a life where he could have the power to defend himself from those who scorned and tortured him. Seeing no other way Non accepted the man's offer and immediately was healed, but there was a catch. After handing Non a wonderfully wretched-looking book and a set of midnight purple and golden robes the man said "however my gift is not free," upon saying this his body transformed into that of a terrifying demon, tall and brutal. This was not a man, but instead Asmodeus, Lord of the Nine Hells, and he wanted something in return... "Your eternal servitude in return for your life. I'll have something for you to do soon." With that Asmodeus vanished into the night. Ever since this encounter Non has been sent to do the bidding of Asmodeus, but as of late, there has been no call from his devilish master. To fill the time Non has taken up adventuring around to fill out his pockets and hone his skills. He waits for Asmodeus to call him again, and will immediately leave to do his bidding when told to do so.
I think im going to not do this one. I'm so new the min maxer I didn't understand and I last played with -ac options so there is alot if stuff I am learning all at one time. One if my buddies from my other pbp on discird was trying to explain it. But I don't think I can figure this out this quick and I don't want to hold a game up. So I thank you for considering me maybe ill find you in a future campaign.
Thanks again
