The team arrived at a growing town to see a large crowd gathered outside a town hall, they soon learn there is a plage that is spreading throughout the town making people vomit black liquid and crops to whither and die.
The town believe it is the folt of a young girl that lived with her grandmother outside of the town, she says they were herbalist they say she is a witch, the team are escorting her to a Monastery that the priests say will help her.
She says the are Religious nuts that are going to kill her.
This is an ongoing campaign I'm looking for probably two players that can commit to at least a few posts per day I'm from UK but most players are from US i don't see it as a problem, we are currently at level 3 and have been playing a couple of months.
This is the latest town they have visited, please post with your character idea and a small backstory. Not just ADD ME on discord because I won't, this is a dark fantasy campaign so I'm fine with that darker character.
Backstory: Borne into this world from living shadows. Once the puppet and champion of an eternal shadowfell god, he has broken free from his masters control… or has he?…
Backstory: Born on a farm Azothlin left at an early age to join a company of merceneries. Eventually he returned home to find...his family dead, and a dark creature waiting for him. He woke later to find himself cursed with a hunger and craving for blood....A curse he has been fighting and trying to keep hidden.
Backstory: Orphaned as an infant and raised by his parent’s killer, Roach led the life of a slave. His master, an evil necromancer, taught him the ways of death and he excelled as a pupil despite his lack of traditional magical abilities. It was only a matter of time before Roach tired of his life of servitude and murdered his mentor / father in his sleep, capturing the wicked man’s soul, as he had been taught to do, within a tiny trinket that he values above any other material possession.
Name: Kieran Gender: Male Race: Human Class: Spores Druid Background: Outlander Backstory: Haven't solidified anything because I'd want to fit it into the story somehow, but the general idea I'd had for him was somewhat similar to this little girl's situation where his town was suffering a plague and he was sent into the woods as a sort of sacrifice to bring an end to the plague, which is where he met some sort of necromancer or minor death god who began teaching him magic. After his parents allowed him to be "sacrificed" he effectively became an orphan and has traveled around on his own, with animal companions, and with the occasional adventuring party since then. For this story he could be undercover at the monastery waiting to save someone like this little girl from the other priests, could be a priest himself who actually does want to help, could be another individual living in the town who doesn't agree with the rest of the mob who are after the girl and wants to help her instead, etc.
Hi i'm from the UK and run my own discord group at the moment have been going since January, decided i'd like to play as well so not sure if your still full but if you don't ask you don't get so ill pop a PC up and hope for a space cheers.
Name :Wraith
race/class: Changeling Rogue
Backround: Faceless
No one is sure what wraith truely looks like, it has some alter egos that it uses all the time, a Gnome called "Bugby", a human called "Manfred", a kobold called "Scratch" and an elf called "Leyheyam" Wraith switches between these main alter egos depending on its mood and the situation. Although he can be almost anyone, each of these alter egos is special and have their own history, story and goals so it feels comfortable in their "skins" He has been persecuted over his life time as a changeling he finds that most people don't trust him, so he feels why disappoint them. Its end goal is to find it's own demi-plane and leave everyone behind and live with the other selves.
Cheers for taking the time to check it out and i'll keep my fingers crossed.
Hey there! Throwing my hat into the ring for if any one else drops, this seems like a really cool concept for a campaign!
Name: Avarice Race: Dhampir (Tiefling previously) Class: Monk | Pact of the Undead Warlock Background: Haunted One
A small but well-known place for safe rest on the road, the monastery Avarice called home often took in those otherwise unwanted. That's how she ended up there, dropped off at its gates when she was barely old enough to remember. Like the other students, Avarice tried not to be influenced by the travelers seeking refuge behind the monastery's walls. Still, she often found herself shirking nightly duties to listen to their tales of adventure.
One story stood out: recent raids by a band of orcs moving toward the monastery. Despite her warnings, her teachers didn't heed the threat until it was too late. The raiders overwhelmed the monastery, and in the chaos, Avarice fled, leaving her home in ruins. During her wanderings, she caught the eye of a vampire lord. Charmed and then overwhelmed, she became bound by blood to serve him. As his vassal, she lost her connection to the radiant magic that once fueled her Ki. Abandoned by her god and enslaved by the the vampire, Avarice eventually succumbed to the bond and resigned herself to her fate.

Hello! Adding my character to this in case you're looking for another player. I'm in the UK but will be going home to the US in a month.
Name: Z.Z. Carew
Race: Yuan-Ti
Class: Phantom Rogue
Background: Criminal
With the advent of a new plague, the demand for bodies to experiment on and study has grown significantly. Z.Z. Carew, a professional body snatcher, has profited off of this greatly. With his old partner, the two of them would dig up corpses and sell them to clerics, doctors, and the like. After being betrayed by his partner and left to take the fall for their operation, Carew hid in a casket on top of a corpse - one that was just about to be buried. Carew had to claw his way up from the ground and when he surfaced, he found he had acquired strange new powers. With these powers, he was determined to see to it that his old partner and all responsible for his premature burial would meet their doom.
