His mother was unbalanced. That's what he tells himself, at least. It's far easier than telling himself she was evil. She thought she was a true dragon, trapped in a dragonborn body. The reality was too painful to bear, so she avoided it. But when the opportunity came, she did the only thing an unbalanced, deluded dragonborn woman could think to do. She sold the soul of her firstborn to Tiamat in order to make her delusion a reality.
Young Nesgar has to live with the legacy of that decision. Expelled from his clan, he has to live alone with his torment. And Tiamat torments him indeed. She comes to him in dreams, taunting, mocking, sending him horrific nightmares. Nesgar fights the only way he knows how: with everyday actions of kindness and goodness. He hopes, somehow, to train himself to make the heroic choices that will make his clan proud and Tiamat shudder.

V'rekh used to live on his own near the water pond. He was most happy when the wind was blowing and the rain falling on his shell. Lately he has started feeling the magic rise inside him and the urge to see the world. One day when the storm was raging and the full moon was barely visible between the clouds he decided to gather his posessions and started walking looking for adventure.

Amshoon was found and raised by a semi famous dwarf explorer, and upcoming explorer himself. However, his adoptive father has gone missing, and Amshoon has few clues to follow. He’ll have to follow some of the dwarf’s expeditions, and that means earning some money, or finding a patron. So it’s time to put in some work on a job, and see where the winds take him.

Ever since an early age, Debolsia has been fascinated with other cultures. Once allowed by her parents, she began traveling far and wide exploring new places and meeting new people. Travels haven't always been easy so she's learned to defend herself if needed. She tries to avoid conflict if possible. Her thirst for knowledge is what brought her here as she hopes to learn move of the city and its inhabitants. Finding a rare treasure along the way would be a bonus if she's able to bring it back to her family and prove her travels weren't time wasted.
Backstory: As a young tiefling boy he was often feared, teased and cursed. He didn't know his mother and his father was farmer. His father did his best but when recent sightings of demons and people going missing in the village he tried his best to protect his son.

Watching from inside the house Russo ran out the back, running until he couldn't. Found by a hag she used him for her experiments, enhancing his abilities his strength. One night he escaped and ran across a group of bandits, they taught him how to fight. Now a man Russo tries his best to make a name for himself and keep his rage from controlling him.
