Backstory: Born to an unwed human mother, Red Joe began his life as an outcast. It was bad enough with his half-elven heritage, however the red color to his skin and the dragon scales that cover parts of his body only made him stand out more. Hence the name Red Joe. He began working with his uncle Joe Crash as a private investigator and bounty hunter, hunting criminals or others who had fallen foul of the law or other "organizations". At the same time, his draconic heritage began to show....he suddenly could speak draconic...and do magic. There was a pact made on the elven side of his family, of which he didn't know, as his mother refused to even speak of his father. His power grew, and he found himself hunting larger things, even...Dragons..
Name: Kekro Race: Kobold Class: Ascendant Dragon Monk Background: Outlander Backstory, still a WIP: Kekro was in the service of a blue dragon for some time. A figurative punching bag for the big boss (and possibly other kobolds). At night he had dreams of a great silvery (actually platinum, though he doesnt know the difference) draconic spirit beckoning him to leave and divert from this path. After some internal conflict, he first thought the silver dragon was evil, he did so and soon realised a greater power within himself. Strenghtened he now steers for vengence for his mistreatment
Howdy, here's another entry. (This will also be using a sheet from fast character.)
Name: Cage
Race: Kobold (MotM)
Class: Artificer (Artillerist)
Background: Gladiator
Backstory: After proving his ferocity in the ring, Cage finally managed to earn his freedom. All he's ever known is to hunt and kill, (And protect his designated companions.)now, with no real direction in his life, he sets out to do just that. He's never faced a real dragon before, so this should be fun.
Name: Alend'el (Alend) Farstrider (<-- link to DDB character sheet) Race: Wood Half-Elf Class: Rogue (Arcane Trickster) - 11 / Monk - 1 Backstory: Exiled noble - youngest (bastard half-elven) son of an ancient family of Elves in the high forest who have fought dragons and dragon cultists since time immemorial. Alend is a sneaky rogue, but loyal and honest to his party-mates. To his enemies, however, he is ruthless. Not above torture and mutilation. Which was a bridge too far for his family (hence the exile).
Did this already start. I know nothing about D&D and I’m fine with dying the first time. Is there still time to join? Am I even qualified to join this or do I need to be more experienced?
Ok so this has started but if you click the link on the first thread there is more info on what this is and links to 2 others recruitment threads feel free to join either though I’d recommend you join the barbarian one can’t wait to teach you dnd
