One Sentence Backstory- "Strongman" in a traveling show that disbanded.
That works, Coenan and Oren will likely meet with the rest of the companions at Baron Aldreds manor/keep and can currently be employed as lower level members of his household in some capacity.
We'll see if we get any more takers in the next few days and go from there.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
This sounds wonderful! Not familiar with Dragon Warriors but I LOVED playing Ars Magica which was an old school RPG that had basically a similar premise of being set essentially in medieval Europe with the actual folklore of that place and time made real ... very similar feel to what you describe.*
I'll drop in a placeholder set of abilities and get busy with character design for my actual application to join

" Race"- half "elven" (her mother was widely believed to have been a changeling left as punishment when HER mother failed to properly acknowledge a brownie nurse's help soothing her human babe)
Class- Sorceror (wild magic)
Background- Outlander
One Sentence Backstory- My mother was driven from her village shortly after I was born; and though my fae features are less obvious people sense the strangeness in me anyhow, so my fate has been no less lonely
(EDIT: not sure if you wanted the backstory to account for how the character came to their profession and/or came to be wherever they meet the rest of the group; if you do here's the "1 and 1/2 sentence backstory" addon:
... until the Wild Ones spoke to me in my soul, and taught me enough of the Old Ways to weave a mask of glamour to hide behind and to follow the threads of Diachbha (fate) to where I am destined to be ... which is apparently here.
That works, Coenan and Oren will likely meet with the rest of the companions at Baron Aldreds manor/keep and can currently be employed as lower level members of his household in some capacity.
Coenen should probably be doing some low skill or unskilled manual labor. If she did find work as a smith she'd really lose her main motivation to become an adventurer. I'm thinking working in the stables mucking stalls might be right up her alley.
Whilst a Sage/Scribe would fit in well and an ' Elf' is an easy reskin to make human we'd need to do some workshopping to maybe fit her into the mileau a little better. Are you amenable to that?
Pretty much what I said to QRTZ above, we'd need to workshop names and theres not really any towns nearby large enough to have a shady part but I think theres nothing about both concepts that I can't work with.
The more the merrier.
