In a land few have heard of, and fewer still have visited, lies untold adventure, fame, and treasure. The renowned captain Farsail has sent out word that she will undertake an expidition to Serpent Isle, but is in need of a crew. Anyone able to hold a sword, fire a bow, or cast a spell is welcome. But be warned, the island is as lethal as it is beautiful.
In this adventure, I am allowing any content from the Player's Handbook, Sword Coast Adventurer's Guide, and Volo's Guide to Monsters to be used for character creation. To submit your character, you can either send me a link through this thread to anything that shows your character statistics, or you can post the following information at minimum about your character:
Name, race, and class.
Level (start at level 1).
Ability scores.
Background (not your backstory).
When I receive a certain number of submitted characters, I will send PMs (private messages) to the selected adventurers who will play the adventure (a different thread in the Play By Post forum).

Devious serpent folk devoid of compassion, yuan-ti manipulate other creatures by arousing their doubts, evoking their fears, and elevating and crushing their hopes. From remote temples in jungles, swamps, and deserts, the yuan-ti plot to supplant and dominate all other races and to make themselves gods.

Background : Small, even for his race, and definitely not that bright. Covered in scars - each one telling a story of mischief or outright stupidity. The most prominent being a burn on his face and most of his already scraggly beard permanently burnt off acquiring his most prized possession - the filthy, floppy, oversized hat he wears on his head.
He has a small dagger he keeps hidden under his shirt that is kept sharp for cutting purse strings, but shows some abuse from the fact that he loves to throw it wildly and without much skill in a fight. It's leather wrapped handle is stained dark with blood though, and not all of it was his from when he decided it would be better to scratch off the "wizzArdz suk" tattoo he had given himself.

Something with the Archeologist background. A fighter, I think. Variant human. Alert feat. 1st level because that's the starting level for the campaign, so it should be rather obvious.
