Hello! I am a new dm/gm to PbP looking to have some fun for a couple days with a one-shot. I'm looking for 5-7 players at level 1, standard array, milestone leveling, encomberment on, few sentences on who they are. If you are interested please private message me with any questions or applications!
Maximillion Skullpiercer, clearly not his birth name, is a 16 year old warlock. He was born as an illegitimate son of a priest and a whore in the small town of West Haven. The priest left town a few years after his birth. A troubled child during his adolescence. His mother left him at 14 after suspicions he had been visited by a demonic force. Maximillion agreed to a pact with the devil for great magical power in exchange for his soul upon his death. Maximillion's normal garb consists of brown and black commoner's clothing covered by a very dark red cloak. Maximillion wanders the streets attempting to survive, taking what he can, trying to avoid the devil's grasp.
Maximillion stands outside a tavern waiting for the right drunkard to leave. Max is short on money at the moment and drunk may just be his meal ticket.
My name is Worm Slumkeeper. I speak for the garbage.
Race: Myconid (Homebrew)
Class: Druid, Circle of Spores
Background: Urchin
Worm was born with a curious physical defect. Yes, I know what you are thinking. A myconid born with a physical defect is no uncommon occurence. But Worm was different. He was born with three arms.
With few friends and a family which christened him "Worm", he took to roaming the back alleys and sewers of his city. The rats and sewer creatures accepted him, and he they. He learned the urban lore of the sewers, and he delved deep into trash cans full of spoiled food and lost secrets. One can learn much about people by their garbage, and Worm collected knowledge and, unwittingly, power and influence. He took the name of The Slumkeeper, and it is his sworn duty to protect the scummy denizens of this slimy underworld.
Olaf, the unusually large human with a shield strapped to his back and a large sword on his back walks into the city of Nezrith, with no real destination or immediate goal in mind.
He still does not like cities, having grown up in a village. So, he seems rather uneasy, but also careful and somewhat curious. After surveying the square he wandered into, Olaf decides that, maybe, a strong drink could do wonders for him.
OOC: The character is Olaf, the human fighter (yes, the most vanilla combo in D&D). Background - Haunted One. He grew up in a village. An unusually large man, he was, from the get-go, "the muscle" of the place. He worked as the local bouncer/guard, as well as farming the land. One day, a humongous dragon, a peculiar shade of purple, showed up and destroyed the village. almost anyone who lived there was killed, with Olaf and several others surviving. This was most unusual, as there was nothing special about the village whatsoever. The dragon has never been seen since, nor has anyone heard from it. Olaf, having nothing left at the ruins of his village, and harboring some misplaced guilt (he was the guard after all, so he thinks he's to blame, in a way, for the death of the entire village, including his parents and his wife and children), took up a weapon and set out for revenge, as well as to try and save others, to soothe his own conscience. He has been "adventuring" for the last 6 years.
Here's a character concept. It's a little silly, but could work.
Mikhael is a half-elven man who has been down on his luck for a while. Fortunately he has good looks and a strong body. He has spent his time getting money by being an entertainer, dancing and performing (mostly with his top off) for people in seedy bars for a bit of change. However, he does have a temper that easily snaps. This also doesn't always help that some of his performances involve axe throwing, so can have one thing lead to another. After an "incident", he has had to move on and is currently looking for a place to have a nice big flagon of ale to forget about that one person that said those words to him and made him snap...
