I write to you with an opportunity most dire—and most rewarding. The ruins of Emberhold, once a bastion of power and ambition, now lie in silence, its halls haunted by the folly of its last masters. Deep within, beneath stone and sorrow, rests the Heart of Cinders—an artifact of immense power, pulsing yet with the embers of long-dead magic.
I require this heart. And I am willing to pay handsomely—10,000 gold pieces for its safe retrieval. But be warned: you will not be the only ones seeking it. A faction calling themselves the Ashen Pact scours the ruins, desperate to claim the Heart for themselves. Do not let them.
The spirits of Emberhold do not rest easy, and neither will you should you choose to walk its forsaken halls. Shadows cling to the stones, and the past is never truly buried. Trust nothing. And should you hear whispers in the dark… listen, but never answer.
Meet me at the Broken Spire Outpost, two nights hence, if you would claim this task. Time is against us, and hesitation will cost you more than gold.

Use the following:
Lvl 8!
Milestone
Fixed Hit Points
Variant Encumbrance
Ignore Coin Weight
Use 2014 for spells, races, background, and classes.
Use Point buy for ABS
Choose Gold not Equipment and use the average for the roll. (1d4=2.5, 1d6=3.5, 1d8=4.5, 1d10=5.5, 1d12=6.5, so 5d4=12 round down at the end, 3d4=7 not 8 or 7.5)
Can you clarify the bit about starting gold? If my character has a 5d4, that results in 100 gold, correct? Am I allowed to spend that on starting equipment?
Backstory: Grew up on a farm but tired of the life and when he was old enough He headed to the city. He found an apprenticeship under a wizard there and learned much. He also learned how strong the years of farming had made him. He is anxious to entertain the Tyrant.

When I have more time, I will reach out to those still interested in this. I'm running a lot of things right now, and this needs more time than I have right now.
