The common folk love me for my kindness and generosity.
Ideals
Noble Obligation. It is my duty to protect and care for the people beneath me. (Good)
Bonds
The common folk must see me as a hero of the people.
Flaws
I too often hear veiled insults and threats in every word addressed to me, and I’m quick to anger.
At a very young age Jackie Nailo Was abandoned by elves. Townsfolk say she is an abomination. She took up being a bard to Prove people wrong, and to find a Half elf Bard. . .

Hi, your campaign sounds really interesting :) Just recently getting into PbP, having only played in person before but thoroughly enjoying it. I'll pop some character info here but depending on what kind of cleric is already part of the party and what you think, happy to also apply with a different character too.
Name - Erin
Race - Water Genasi
Class - Cleric, Peace Domain/Druid (4 and 1 levels respectively)
Background - Acolyte
Backstory - Erin was born in small forest community of cosy springside cottages, on the edge of a beautiful glade and temple to Eldath. She and her mother are followers of Eldath and, like her mother, Erin has also pledged to look after this unspoiled area and practise the peaceful ways of The Green Goddess.
From a young age Erin showed a natural capability with healing magic, a gift that has been treasured amongst her fellow clergy. As she's grown, so have her gifts. Her ability to channel powerful magic and harness the abilities it grants, as if direct from the Mother Guardian of Groves herself, is a source of wonder to her and those around her and something she strives to not take for granted.
Erin is a peaceful soul with an easy smile and makes a loyal friend. She has a great love for nature and feels most comfortable outdoors, near water. Curious about the world around her but cautious also, she's usually of a quieter disposition and somewhat shy. Understanding that peace cannot be forced, she'd prefer to avoid conflict rather than pacify it. But should the mistake be made to underestimate her or push her to defend herself, her friends, loved ones or sacred places, she has every faith that Eldath will guide and protect her against enemies.
Traits - I am tolerant of other faiths and respect the worship of other Gods. I can find common ground between the fiercest enemies, empathizing with them and always working towards peace.
Ideals - Aspiration. I seek to prove myself worthy of my God's favour by matching my actions against her teachings.
Bonds - I will do almost anything to protect the temple where I serve.
Flaws - I put too much trust in those who weild power within my temples hierarchy.

Ability scores: 151411111217
Vinnicar of Greyhawk, human Eldritch Knight of the Order of the Sun
Personality Traits: I’m always polite and respectful. It is a tenant of the Order of the Sun I lost too many friends in the last Pomarj Invasion and I’m slow to make new ones. It is painful to lose friends
Ideals:The Order of the Sun is dedicated to the greater good. Our sworn duty is to lay down our lives in defense of others. (Good)
Bonds: I would still lay down my life for the people I served with.
Flaws:I made a terrible mistake in in the Battle of Waldron Keep that cost many lives, and I would do anything to keep that mistake secret.
Vinnicar took his position in the inverted V. To his right, at the tip, was Lady Marribel, last captain of this Sunburst, and its best. To his left was Sir Godric, as solid a dwarf as any man could wish at his side. The other side of the V was Lady Thera and Sir Remmy, fine knight and amiable enough elves. Behind them an opening in the cavern wall lead to a chamber where their wounded and the remaining refugees sheltered. They were last able bodied fighters and would die before even one orc got into that cavern. At that moment, a large group of orcs, at least thirty, emerged on the far side of the cavern, sized them up, then charged, their bestial roars filling the cavern. Thankfully, they had no arrows left. In their center, the wizard Quigg moved with them, carrying the crystal contraption he'd used to decimate the other Sunburts. It glowed a virulent purple, but much less brightly than before. Marribel believed it's power had been exhausted for the day.
As they closed to 10 feet, Marribel charged the hoard with a shout of defiance and Vinnicar moved with her as planned. Behind him, the V closed up, Lady Thera now the point. They're sudden counter-charge caught the orcs by surprise and the two knights carved deeply into them before numbers slowed them, still many feet short of the evil Quigg. "Now, Vinnicar!" shouted his Captain and, with a deft move she slipped into the group between them and the wizard, killing another orc while taking several more wounds herself. Calling out high words, she expended the last of her eldritch power, blowing the group away and clearing a path to wizard.
He smiled, pointed a finger at her, and blasted her off her feet with some spell. His smile faltered for Vinnicar was already moving past his fallen Captain, his great axed raised to strike. At the last instant, Quigg razed the crystal thing and the axe smashed into and through it, burying its head in the wizard's. There was a great flash of light and Vinnicar was flung away, the fleeting impression of a tunnel of light imprinting on his mind. Then darkness.
When next the Knight of the Sun opened his eyes, he lay in forest, aching in every bone and muscle, his axe a few feet away. Getting to his feet, Vinnicar of Greyhawk wondered where he was for this valley was surely nowhere near his city. Summoning his axe to his hand, he muttered, "Where by the Sun am I?"
"Stag's Valley, stranger," said a melodious voice behind him. Vinnicar spun, his axe coming out. He found himself facing a shepherd, a small herd of goats behind him. "More to the point, though, is, where ye be from, for it surely not be the Valley?"
The axe slipped from nerveless fingers as Vinnicar found himself answering, "Greyhaw...the Free City of Greyhawk..." his voice trailed off for he knew this land was far, far from his home.
Like everyone else, I only applied because I just wanted to try out a pbp on the forums. I'm not going to do this if it means joining a Discord server; Besides I don't regularly check Discord either. I'm withdrawing as well.
