Sounds good to me, I would say we are likely rivals. I would say that after you came to town, you were kind of the top tier investigator... causing Omen to drop to a close second. Omen is in the job for the coin and isn't looking to be lawful exactly.
Omen (Wreckzors) and Kit (me) have a recent joint history in Baldur's Gate (or a similar analog if the DM prefers) but both of our characters traveled (separately) before that, if anyone wants to collaborate with either or both of us on some additional backstory.
We'll go with Baldur's Gate since that's likely what most are accustomed to. This game can be set pretty much anywhere.
Secondly, If you are collaborating with another applicant, please PM me with any info not listed in this thread (And so I can keep track of who's teaming with who). You can include everyone you are working with in the PM.
Everyone has great characters so far! Still aiming for Saturday but since things have started slowing down I may close Friday depending on how busy I am.
After I choose participants I will give you all a chance to talk amongst each other and get to know everyone's characters before starting the game.
Character info: Name: Draugr (pronounced Drow-gr) Race: Dark Elf (Drow) Class: Rogue 3, subclassed to assassin, and multiclass into sorcerer 2 Backstory: Draugr comes from a military background and has sever trust issues due to him being wanted for turning his back on leadership, his family was killed when he left and had returned only 2 days later and found them. He took his fathers cloak and weaponry and swore never to return to the town of Thronvale. Greatest fear: abandonment, death, and spiders Darkest desire: assassinate the king of his home town

So do most characters here defaulted to an investigator background when presented with a missing people scenario? XD
Josef's background is specific at the beginning but totally vague in the timeline leading up to the adventure, so I can work with you on that.
Was rereading the submissions and now I'm picturing Omen leading a party of characters that owe him because he tracked them down and recruited them instead of turning them in.

Nah, it's only like 20%😂
What I don't get is the high percentage of aquatic/water based characters. Did I miss something about the village being on an island?🤣

>Investigators >Missing people >Aquatic >Fey connection
It's kelpies. *takes long drag from cigarette and tosses it in the water* Damn menaces. Right, I'm gonna need about 7 pounds of cold iron, 3 packs of cigarettes and zero ****s to give. If I'm not back by daybreak, tell Two-Tons Mc'Gee he can stuff it. No worries, he'll know what to do. Walks off into the credits of a film noir pastiche

my first thought for the character submission was a straight pit fighter brawler type that was an unarmed spec fighter. He would been very out out of his element in solving a missing person's case... but wouldnhave just punched holes in s and threatened people until they pretended to give him a clue
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Ok let's see how this turn out:
Ability scores: 14151217812
Name: Thar the Tower.
Race: Bugbear
Class: Fighter 4 Warlock 1
Backstory: Shar's tribe had problems in the past. They were hunted down and nearly killed by a rival tribe of orcs. They were pushed up to the mountains and finally enter the land of a storm giant who took pity of them and they stroke a deal. He helped them, defend them against the orc but he asked for one of their childs to be left with him for him to raise. Shar was chosen. He grew up learning from the giant but the gentle titan allowed him to keep contact with his former family. But time came for Shar to leave the safety of the mountain top and he started to roam the world mostly running errands for his guardian, teacher and friend. It was in one of those errands, in the southern regions, in the center of the Great Desert, that he found a ring, a magical ring that was more than it appeared and he struck a deal with the entity trapped inside it. When he returned from this trip and he contected his parents, his mother told him that his father had been missing in the city of Whitermore. He then went there trying to locate his missing father.
Greatest Fear: To fail his master by not being up to his expectations ( see what I did there? not being up... and his master is a giant... I'll see myself out ;) )
Darkest Desire: To be a great warrior and lead his tribe into a new golden era when no one dare to attack them.

Alright ya'll I've given it some thought and I think I'd better close this now.
Haha, You've made it hard enough for me to pick already! I must stop your conspiring amongst each other before you all weave your backstories together forcing me to choose everyone. :'D
You all have great characters, but alas not everyone can be chosen.
I'll make my final choices soon!

Awesome! If you want, you can make a PM with the three of us so I can see what you both work out! :)

Just and update!
