Marasatra Vae’lyn resides in Baldur’s Gate by choice and by calling, having returned to her birthplace to delve deeper into the arcane and divine secrets buried in the city’s forbidden archives and blood-soaked history. Drawn to the convergence of power, politics, and old magic that pulses beneath the city’s surface, she serves as a healer and scholar in the Lower City while quietly researching obscure rites that blend bloodletting, divine will, and ancient wizardry. For Marasatra, Baldur’s Gate is both a crucible and a library—dangerous, alive, and brimming with truths no temple or tower would dare preserve.
(What is the starting equipment? Same as 1st level or anything in addition to that? The submission assumes that it is allowed to use homebrewed versions of official (DndBeyond-published) subclasses, Blood domain and school of blood magic. The homebrew only adapts to the needs of the 2024 rules and does not change any of the actual features.)
Ooh! Definitely interested! I meant to apply to this game when it started, but I missed the deadline, so I’ll gladly throw my hat in the ring!

Okay, here goes nothing!
Name: Bryleth Alderspark, She/Her
Race: Heavenly Aasimar, elvish descent
Class: Magician Druid, Circle of Stars
Background: Wayfarer. Bryleth grew up on the streets of Baldur's Gate, an orphan with nothing to her name but a locket, containing her name and a picture of two mysterious elves she assumes are her parents. Bryleth grew up rough, her physical weakness and fragile frame making her an easy target. So, she got smart. And fast. And cunning. Before long, she ruled the streets, her name spoken in whispers. She became hard, and cruel, a vicious crime boss only out for herself. That is, until one day, her luck ran out. A plague swept through the city and due to her weakness, she almost succumbed. Her gang members took her to a temple, where the sick were being treated. At that temple, lying in the pile of groaning victims, she cried out, renouncing her cold and callous ways, viewing her torment as a punishment from the gods. She vowed to help others, and be a light in the darkness. Miraculously, it worked. She saw a mysterious vision: a star, descending from the sky, before crumbling, the grains of star dust falling on her, causing runic, glowing constellations to appear upon her body. She found herself cured of disease, and with the ability to heal the sick. That night, she healed those who were still afflicted with the plague. In the aftermath of the outbreak, Bryleth left the city, going on a journey of discovery that took her across the land, searching for the meaning of this mysterious astral blessing.
Reason for being in Baldur's Gate: After 100 years of searching, Bryleth received another vision, one of disaster in Baldur's Gate and Elturel, so she journeyed back to where it all began, intent on helping those she could and finding out the source of her power.

Name: Barrie Lionni Race: High Elf Class: Bard, College of Glamour Background: Merchant Baldur's Gate: Her family calls it accounting, she calls it boring. At least they leave her alone when she is doing the accounting, allowing her time to practice her instruments and singing. But being here in Baldur's gate, she realizes she can not continue wandering from town to town with her family, hocking their wares. It is time for her to find a stage, time for her to perform! Or at least, stop writing rows and columns of numbers.

Reason for being in Baldur's Gate - Derya hails from a diaspora of nomadic traders scattered far and wide Forgotten Realms. Rumor has it that a notorious criminal in Baldur's Gate has managed to get his hands on a bag of Fireheart Flower seeds, and that he is prepared to sell them to the highest bidder... Derya is keen to get in on the action.
