I am going to be doing this via Discord, it's going to be chat-based - Characters should be level 3, milestones. For characters, if you can give me a basic overview of why your character is heeding to Silverholm - It going to be roughly around the Nether Mountains in Forgotten Realms. You can play pretty much anything in the official sources.
The introduction :
As you journey through the frost-covered wilderness toward the mining town of Silverholm, whispers of fear and uncertainty swirl around you like the biting winds of winter. Tales of disappearances, the murder of a noble-born, and widespread violence across the region have reached your ears, along with talk of monsters and horrors stalking the unwary.
Yet, as you draw closer to Silverholm, these rumours only seem to grow louder, their echoes bouncing off the towering peaks of the Nether Mountains like the cries of the damned. The air grows colder, the shadows deeper, and the sense of foreboding more suffocating with each step you take.
Finally, you arrive at the outskirts of Silverholm—a town teetering on the brink of outright rebellion, its streets lined with snow-covered rooftops and the sounds of distant howls echoing through the frosty air. The local authority's forces, dispatched to restore order and maintain peace, are barely managing to hold their own in check, their once-sworn oath to protect and serve giving way to brutality and desperation.
Amidst the chaos, rumours swirl of monsters and evil creatures plaguing the entire region, not just Silverholm. From the depths of the Nether Mountains to the fringes of civilization, dark forces stir, preying on the weak and vulnerable amidst the confusion. Similarly, whispers speak of dark magic seeping into the very fabric of the land, twisting and corrupting everything it touches, not just within the town but across the entire region.
As you step foot into Silverholm, you are met not with a glimmer of hope, but with the harsh reality of a region on the edge of tearing itself apart. Talk of cults and madness fills the air, mingling with the anguished cries of those who have already fallen victim to the darkness that threatens to engulf the entire land.
Will you heed the call and stand against the forces of oppression and chaos that threaten to consume not just Silverholm, but the entire region? Will you uncover the truth behind the whispers of dark secrets and cursed lands, and bring light to the shadows that threaten to engulf the land in darkness?
Backstory: A wandering adventurer who may have some connections to a certain organization ("No, I don't play the harp. Why do you ask?"). Kit is traveling to Silverholm at the behest of her old mentor, a Dwarf named Adoward, who's heard some curious rumors coming out of the region and wants to have someone look into it...
Physical Description: Kit stands about 5'3"/1.6 meters tall with a slight build and short, choppy brown hair that just barely covers the tips of her slightly pointed ears. Her eyes are a startlingly clear blue and she has a somewhat androgynous look that is further accented by her penchant for wearing masculine clothing, which tends towards natural colors and rich, textured fabrics. During her downtime, she can usually be seen playing a thelarr crudely carved from a river reed or practicing sleight of hand tricks with a coin.
Backstory Dain is a minor noble. His clan the Silveraxe are known for being great warriors and merchants. Dain is on his way to silverholm to check on his clans shipments and why they are not making it back.
Mellifluous Dawn, also called Mellie, is a Half-Elven Paladin of Lllira as well as a bard. She has heard the rumors of the darkness in the area and seeks to fight and help return it to the light.
Bare Bones of a Backstory: a carpenter by trade, Merland was collecting driftwood on the shore to sculpt and sell one morning when he stumbled upon a peculiar weapon hilt, worn by the saltwater and engraved with an illegible runic script. Upon touching the hilt, he was inadvertently granted a set of ocean-related powers and an unexplained affinity with creatures of the deep. He is now en-route to Silverholm to meet his magically-gifted uncle, Svet, who may be able to offer some insight on the matter, blissfully unaware of the evil which has begun to stir...
Story: A smith apprentice and native of Silverholm, Rhys is desperate to help save his town. Both from the monsters outside as well as within. While not particularly brave, Rhys feels drawn to help and is looking for anyone to assist.
Backstory: A Sorcerer tortured and tested due to his dragon blood, he’s most definitely crazy, and lived a life in the shadows ever since. He traveled to SilverHelm looking for one of his torturers, he also, for some unknown reason, hates carrots.
Physical Description: Nyx stands 6"/tall quite skinny and tall, his hair is jet black, short, and messy. His eyes are purple and bloodshot, as if he’s witnessed something horrific. he has bandages wrapped all over him, so you can barely see his purple, almost rotten looking skin, his teeth are long and sharp, along with his fingers. One might mistake him as a zombie, as he looks more like a monster than an elf. you can usually see him laughing to himself and playing cards.

Character Sheet: WIP
Finally a discord pbp. Sounds like an interesting setting
Either here or by pm will be okay groverbloom, I can give them a read and go from there.
Yeah, I find it easier to do one discord most of the time, and doing it via chats is way easier for me.
Also, I forgot to add that the ability scores should be standard array or rolled. We are going to go with the standard starting gear
I might be up for a new campaign. Rolling stats first. Will work on character later.
Rolling 4d6 drop lowest
2 3 5 4
3 1 1 6
6 2 6 1
2 5 4 3
2 6 5 5
6 5 6 1
Quoting this to make sure potentially "manipulated dice roll bug doesn't" happen.
Fina set: [10, 15, 14, 12, 12, 14 ]
EDIT: How the **** does the site still give the "potentially manipulated dice roll bug when I just posted a simple comment. WTF.
Anyway, should I use this set that I rolled or would you like me to re-roll?
Oh it used to do that to me all the time. You can go with that if you are comfortable and have a and idea to work with.
