You find yourself looking out the lead pained window, into the distance. You see storm clouds brewing, carrion gathering before a clash of blades. Below you, there is the loud sound of lyre music being played. The clinking of tankards and laughter fills the air as people go about their evening. A shiver fills the air as wind begins to gust, clacking the shutters against the side of the inn. The fire pops loudly, shooting small embers against the metal grate.
This the recruiting post for the game. We will use a roll for stats, dropping the lowest score, starting at level 5. Attached is information on the world, pantheon of gods, and some important figures. I'm fairly new at DMing so please be patient and if you have any feedback, let me know. Setting takes place in a feudalistic high to late medieval age.

Put your spoiler here. Jinara Lenamore was originally a soldier of the army at the King's Citadel (de Pelothare) well adversed in the art of war; specifically hand-to-hand combat. JInara was a gift to the king for his lineage. He is the eldest son of the the High Elf King Argen Lenamore of the city of [enter name of city] in the Feywild [assuming you have a multi-verse system]. Jinara never met his father or mother. He does not know anything of the Feywild. He has only known the Citadel.
Jinara is a good soldier. He is one to follow the law as laws have purpose and value to a prosperous society. On assignment with a scouting mission to Leer's peak, our party stumbled upon an adult dragon. Jinara fell first. Before his last breath, he was overtaken by a dream, or vision, of a horrendous sight. A massive 5 headed dragon, standing taller than the mountains themselves. All he remembers is a fear-wrenching growl as all 5 heads lurched upwards before releasing a torrent of dragon's breath on him simultaneously. His eyes came to as breath engulfed him and realized one of his party brought him back.
Now forever scarred, Jinara Lenamore has lingering effects from what he thought was a nightmare. Still a soldier, Jinara's way has become more isolated and chaotic ever fearing the visage that is stuck in his head. Destroying it, or hiding from it, is his purpose now.

Name: Strafe
Race: V Human
Class(es): Bard
Backstory:
Growing up Strafe was always an independent child, preferring to learn things the hard way instead of doing what his parents said. That’s not say he didn’t love them, especially his mother. He adored her voice and the way she would tell tales of their people. He would sit for however long it took for her to finish, ignoring his friends and all other distractions. Then one year she took sick, her voice and breath were the first things to go. Her life shortly followed. This loss devastated Strafe’s father, and what once was a decent father/son relationship soon became strained under the unwanted attention and worry Strafe received from his father. This drove Strafe to spend more and more time on the streets following his friends who were less than honorable. They valued him for his adept hands, and stealth abilities. Another friend Strafe cultivated was an old minstrel in one of the taverns that dotted the city. One day his “friends” approached him for a job, that involved the maiming of someone who was moving in on their territory and Strafe flat refused. They chased him until he hid at the inn where Strafe’s friend and mentor was working. Strafe told him what had happened and asked for help and it was then that his friend told him to sneak out the back under a disguise and look for his friend at the local Bard college, and with a recommendation letter in hand Strafe started his journey

Lia's mother owns a tavern in one of the major cities of the region. She has grown up without knowing who her father is. When asked her mother always gets sad, so Lia has learned to not ask any longer. She has seen countless adventurers go through the doors of the tavern, and wished to follow after them one day.
She got her chance eventually, and has done a few minor adventures over the past few years, even learning the arts of magic.
