Greetings, everyone! I have to write a backstory for said lizardfolk Artificer, yet I'm REALLY bad at writing backstories. Anyone have any ideas for me?
(Notes: according to my DM, the backstory has to be a paragraph and a half at most, and it has to either reference 'the Shattering' (not sure what the Shattering is supposed to be, but I'll ask my DM about it), or a necromancer.)
I can't really give any ideas but sometimes just writing helps, even if the writing itself is bad you might get a few good ideas to use in the next version, and so on. I wrote an entire backstory, scrapped it, but I had a good idea or two from it to put into the next
(Also not good at writing backstories, but I can kinda make the idea for them)

I'm such a perfectionist though that I have to know what I'm gonna write about to even write like a couple sentences. I'm also just very unimaginative when it comes to certain things, so I like to have a writing prompt for most things.
Hi there! My name's Elk. I'm NoiSilverheart's doppelgänger. I'm a demi/grayromantic, socially awkward Okie who may or may not be a pyromaniac. *random confetti blast*
I'm a warlock of the Archcrone, and my patron is TheFriendlyArchfey. I was nicknamed AchatesCervus8337 by VitusW and given the titles "Swashbuckling Scorcher", "The Unpredictable Jedi", "Burning Fury of the Ancients", and "Combustion Knight" by DrummerBoyDragonSlayer.
That's hard as I tend to just collect songs I like and not think too much about the bands themselves. But If I look at the bands that make the most of my favorite songs, these would be the top ten in no particular order.
AC/DC makes the best rock music ever and you cannot convince me otherwise. I dare you to even try to.
I personally dont think Queen or AC/DC is the best rock band ever, however maybe for like the 70's or 80's, but even then I have a feeling Talking Heads is better overall.
AC/DC is good, I havent done a deep dive into them but they've got some pretty good hits, T.N.T never sat well with me though, the lyrics make him seem like a rapist and the song just isnt the best to me. (Not saying he IS a rapist, but yknow)
If you asked most people (including non rock fans) the best rock band would largely be voted in as Nirvana, Nirvana is a very good band and also has never really left the genre of rock, stuff like Radiohead even though I'm a fan I wouldn't consider the best rock band because they moved on to other genres somewhat. (People might also say The Beatles I also just realized, and The Beatles are amazing stuff on their albums is either great or just ehh, like half of each album is good - masterpieces but some is just like "What?")
I dont know what I would call the best rock band, but its probably not AC/DC.
When reading this take into account my favorite music years are like late late 80's - like 2010's so the 70's and 80's cant really be something I can call the shots on, I'd probably choose Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, or Talking Heads for the best 70s/80s stuff though if I had to.
(This whole post has a good point (imo) but sorry for the terrible structure)
Fair, but TNT is about a man with anger issues and violent tendencies, causing him to be disliked by people around him, insulting him and calling him a danger (hence the “lock up your daughter, lock up your wife line) constantly getting into fights, but always coming out on top. Plus, AC/DC just has the most songs that I enjoy. Some bands might have one or two songs that I like more, but AC/DC is more consistent, making me lean towards them more

No. I'll hear the songs on the radio, or hear a section of a song during a internet clip and seek out the song, or listen to amvs and end up liking the song used.
Libera Boys Choir Celtic Woman Gregorian (they remix pop/rock with elements of Gregorian chant) Clamavi de Profundis (family that makes music, a lot of it being Tolkein-based) U2, Simon and Garfunkel, Styx Vienna Boys Choir (they have some songs that aren't classical I like) Of Monsters and Men The Hu
~Brunuhville (makes fantasy-esque music on YouTube)
And for individual singers Ella Roberts Cormac Thompson Ronan Parke Cai Thomas (though not his classical; it's good but not my style) Joseph McManners

Got some nice ones there. I love Disturbed's Sound of Silence. Linkin Park's What I've Done is also a classic and great for "What if X-MOVIE was made in 2007?" I think I've also like some Evanescence covers. They did My Immortal, right?
