Jasper was a member of a secretive cult, led by a (>lvl 5) warlock, who hid their identity even to the cultists. One of the requirements to join the cult was that the potential initiates had to fake their deaths, assuming a new persona for outside of cult activities. When Jasper, the baker's son Finn, and a couple other cultists were imprisoned in Fort Yentser, the rest of the cult showed up to break them out, with the leader attempting to summon demons. The cult leader was knocked out as the portal to the Abyss opened, and demons swarmed out.
Fort Yentser was destroyed that day.
NEW Backstory! Enjoy!

Let him who is without sin cast the first stone.
May each word that I speak be backed by each of my teeth.
When you said no on flying races or a permanent flying speed, does that also include mechanical workarounds?
For instance: one concept I'm brainstorming is a goblin skyknight ranger who flies around on his pteradon beast master companion.
Just trying to gauge what kind of tone the campaign will head into.
That is very cool... alright, this is a tough decision. If you can make it sound cool enough, I'll let you have it if you get in. If you don't get in and you make it sound cool enough, I'll guarantee you a spot on the backup players list.

Story: Alys arrived in town a few months ago, looking for a fresh start. Until five years ago, Alys was just a young half-elven woman living with her parents, a human father and an elven mother. She had hopes and dreams for the future, including becoming a traveling bard or musician. That all fell to pieces, however, when her parents were brutally murdered by highwaymen. Alys was left for dead, but a kind stranger found her and nursed her back to health. For months, all Alys could think of was revenge. One night a strange being came to her in a dream. Its flesh was decayed, and its eyes were hollow and black. It promised her great power and the ability to claim her revenge if only she would serve him as her master. Alys barely thought twice. With her newfound powers of the Undead, Alys struck down her parents' killers, but now she feels lost, unsure what to do with her new life. So she has traveled to the town her benefactor is from, on her invitation, to try and start a new life, but will she be able to with the whispers of her dead patron always in her ear?
Ally: Lydia Kettering was born and raised in town. She serves as the town's apothecary. She was the one who found a wounded Alys and nursed her back to health.

Okay, this is awesome. I'll have to change the ally ever-so-slightly, but I love this already.

Backstory: Originally from some random town out east, Ventunox was raised there. The Gensai decided; "Hey, I'm bored" Thus the Gensai left and went adventuring. Finding solace in the army of his village he decided to apply. After a couple years of service he lef- Er went AWOL. This Gensai doesn't appreciate just sitting around and doing nothing and seems to follow his whims.

Lore, Lore, and More! That's what I'm about!
PM me if you wish for some lore on a person or place!
I think it's good. Maybe make it have to target a creature or object? I dunno, just a thought. We can try it out as-is and if it seems unbalanced we can change it later. Sound good to you?

OH MY GOD THIS LOOKS SO COOL I'D KILL TO BE IN THIS CAMPAIGN!
(Now that my excitement rant is over, question on a homebrew)
What are your thoughts on this homebrew?

It seems very strong. I don't think I can allow it, sorry. I'm glad you're excited, though!

PM me the word “Tomato”
Seems good. I like it.

This may be asking too much, but may I change the damage Acid Splash to fire, and reflavor to weaving a wave of fire into the air?

That sounds awesome! Absolutely!
