Name: Rahza Greysail Race & Class: V. Human Cleric (Tempest) Background: Pirate (variant Sailor) Brief Backstory or Personality Blurb:
The name Greysail was feared for many years in coastal Eldoria. Legends abounded of how the feared pirate came to be: born of a storm, raised by sea witches, a rebellious naval officer. But Rahza never answered questions of his origin. He just plundered and looted and burned his way across the sea for unknown reasons. What was abundantly clear was his gift for channeling the storm. Even Rahza acknowledged he was blessed by Aerithal, the Sky Weaver.
However, Rahza's years long campaign of terror on the seas was cut short by the betrayal of one of his lieutenants, and the pirate was taken captive by the military of Eldoria. Expecting an execution, Rahza was surprised by an offer: serve in the military against Eldoria's foreign attackers and either serve well and only be imprisoned after the end of the war or die gloriously in battle. Rahza gave a rakish grin and simply asked who he would get to kill first.
Name: Karkuhm Brangrim Race & Class: Human Bard Background: Soldier Brief Backstory: Karkuhm just wants to play music. He didn't want to be a soldier. He didn't want to harm anyone, although the thought of others from another nation trying to take this country certainly angered him. Enough so that he wrote more than a few songs about it. But to take up arms? Sure, he had been taught thee basics of fighting, and certainly new how to use his bow to hunt. For food. But alas, the other nations come, and as a young man of age, he did his duty and signed up to fight. As it turns out, there was a lot of material for new songs to be had during a war, and he tried to keep his chin up, eyes alert, and look out for his other brothers and sisters in arms.
But now his tour was coming to an end, and he has to wrestle with the idea of signing up again.

Glad I got here in time! This looks like SO MUCH FUN!!!
I'm usually a DM, but when I play, I'm usually a silly-fun-good-time player. But I've been looking for a more serious group too, so this looks like a lot of fun.
This looks like a really exciting campaign, and I hope I can be a part of it!
Name: Harley Kein
Race: Wood Elf
Classes: Lv2 Ranger/Lv1 Sorcerer
Ability Scores: Ability scores: 81711131112
Background: Folk Hero
Backstory Short Version: Harley Kein had a twin whose primal rage took over him. He burst into a flaming rage, which Harley could only stop by ending his life. In the process, Harley discovered her own flame within her, and had to leave her clan to protect the forest from those flames. These flames may one day consume her, but not before she peruses her dreams of fighting the strongest on the battlefield but joining the army of Eldoria. To protect herself from prejudices against women in war, she cut her hair and traded her dress for armor and is attempting to enter the army as a man... but she's not fooling anyone.
Backstory Long Version:
In the midst of a war between two forest elf clans, a man and woman, though fighting for opposite sides, fell in love. The man, Head Elder of one clan, married the sister of the warring clan's Head Elder. 9 months later, just a week after the clans had merged and peace had come upon the forest, Gzeld and Harley Kein were born. Gzeld and Harley were twins, Gzeld a boy and Harley a girl. Throughout her childhood, she looked up to her father, a man of the sword. But due to prejudices against female warriors in the tribe, he never taught her the ways of fighting. She would study Gzeld training with their father for years, only daring to mimic the motions in the comfort of her room.
Tragedy struck on the twins' coming-of-age-ceremony. These ceremonies are special to royalty, as they mark the anointment of the next Head Elder. Gzeld had always assumed that, as he was the only male next in line to be Head Elder, he was guaranteed the privilege. But the clan was shocked to hear the Head Elder proclaim that the next Head Elder, and first female Elder in the history of the clan, would be Harley, as she had been the first of the twins born. This enraged Gzeld. Something dark and draconic boiled up from deep inside his blood, and he burst into a rage of flames the likes of which no Wood Elf had ever before. He began razing the thriving forest to the ground, but before he could take a life, Harley took matters into her own hands. She expertly used the techniques she had been practicing from watching Gzeld train and beheaded him before he could descend more into his madness. But this came at a cost. Upon releasing a roar victory, she exhaled a torrent of flames up into the sky.
Harley had broken two of the clan's sacred rules. Women don't fight, and fire is forbidden. Because of this, she was banished from the world she had loved, but she had gained a flaring desire to fight. Upon speaking to some traveling merchants, she learned of a call to arms in the kingdom of Eldoria. Thinking she wouldn't be allowed into their army, she disguised herself as a man, cutting off her beautiful locks of hair, abandoning her flowing robes for armor, and marched forth, towards the threat of the veil.
But she feared she only had so much time to fight her way, because the primal fire inside of her was growing, and it wouldn't stop until it has consumed her, and everyone on the battlefield.
