PS- This is my 2nd campaign and I have ended the first one due to a lack of information I gave to the players. In this one, I wish to take into consideration the mistakes I have made and improve my Dungeon Mastering skills to make a Campaign about space travel.
Story- You are apart of the INTER-GALACTIC POLICE known as the GALACTIC PATROL and you have graduated to PHENIX level meaning you have to go out and capture wanted space criminals. Fictions of Flow is the name of the first mission you have to go to. This focuses on a Planet called DX-55527 and all fiction is considered the most dangerous crime, you have to go there find out why fiction is banned and imprison the culprit. But first, you must give the Graduation speech on who you are. What race you are. Your gender and On your backstory so, please introduce yourselves the best couple will become PHIONEXES.
Ps- Just say the name, race and backstory of your characters also state if it is a he or she.
Name: Conner DX-4 Race: Warforged Envoy Backstory: I was created by a goblin scientist to make a android that acted fully like a human. though the project failed I was still made with free will. still keeping a few protocols in line. Due to my high intelligence and skills I enrolled in the force to become a working member of my planet. my creator has died in recent years but I am ready to learn and contribute. Identification: Male: Him, He, They, Them.
For years, my herd (The Thunderhooves) had felt that our homeworld (Chiron II) was all we needed. However, recent developments have shown that it may not be provide for us any for very much longer. I, as our cheiftain's eldest daughter, volunteered to be the first leave the bounds our ancestral home in order to try and find a suitable alternative. If that means going to where I am needed in order to bring law to a chaotic universe, so be it!
This sounds interesting and I'd like to join. I have a few questions though: Is there any specific age range for the characters and how much could happen to them in their backstory?
Backstory - I was born in a small town called Satan's edge. It was believed that this town was where demons from hell crossed over into the real world, so not many people trust the people from there. Since I was an orphan, I lived in the orphanage home in the town. There I learned to not trust people and to take what was mine. I also learned there some fighting styles there from the other boys in the home. once i turned 18, I got out of that town as soon as possible and I have been adventuring ever since.
"Many want to know why I am called spark, I believe it is my personality or maybe because I love shocking spells or love to get greasy and work on a good engine who knows! Here is how I grew up! I never spent to much time on planetside as my father was the first mate and only human on the elven trade ship Lhoris. My elven mother having died during childbirth is what caused my father to become indebted to the Lhoris, my elven family claiming his recklessness in sleeping with an elven woman caused the "half bread" to kill her in birth. My father an honorable man did the right thing and took up the position stepping down from his own ship of which he was captain, taking me to be raised among her mothers family and him. During the long voyages, I learned spellcasting from my uncle, mechanical dealings from my cousin, and how to not be uptight from my father. I grew up hearing stories of my father's brother (Uncle John) who is a Pheonix, so when I turned 25 she left the ship and started working trying to become a Pheonix, five years of hard work have paid off! I am proud to be moving up to this honor, to being a Pheonix."
((Now for me I have been playing dnd since the late 90's mostly as a dm, if you want to know anything else just ask lol)
Backstory - Aurora’s parents were in the wine-making business on Navi-4. Aurora was made to manage the bookkeeping.
Aurora thought little of her father as she grew up, and possibly out of a need for revenge, began to steal and resell his wine at cost.
One day her father found out about her bootlegging and criminal activity and hired a group of monks from the Scarlet Reserve to "abduct" Aurora, believing that they would reform her. As her father thought that the monks were strictly librarians, however they were also martial artists and attempted to teach Aurora the discipline her father wanted while also training her in hand-to-hand combat.
At the age of 20 she left the monks with all they had taught her and joined the galactic patrol Academy...
Class- Ranger: Will multiclass later into Rogue and Fighter
Gender - Male
Backstory: Harmond was the son of a soldier so he grew up wanting to be like his old man. From when he was able to read, he would read his father's old military books. During playtime, he would pretend to be a soldier and fight demons while also training himself to become an actual soldier. When he grew up, he finally joined the local militia and that's when things began going south. His superiors gave him a lot of shit and he spent many a day scrubbing floors. He was finally promoted to a member of the one of the King's special unit that would camp in a cave and keep the kingdom safe from fiends that might come out of the cave. At one point Harmond's entire party with the exception of the commander and himself was wiped out by a powerful fiend. The whole thing was blamed on Harmond and he was exiled. He needed a job real bad and figured that the Intergalactic Police was right up his alley with him being a former soldier and all.
Harmond's speech (Since he won't tell anyone his backstory): He reads from a sheet of paper. "Hello all. I am Harmond Ivanov. I look forward to working with you." After getting off the stage, he crumbles the paper up and throws it in a nearby trashcan.
Okay so a d8 instead of a roll that would be for hit dice (barbarians would otherwise use d12 and fighters use d10, for example)? Just asking for clarification

Elrikk was born into a wood elf family who honored the glory of battle. His father was the general for the high council, his mother a sword fighting instructor for the knight academy, his brother a war hero that died in battle before Elrikk was born and his sister became the best archer known to the wood elves by the age of 60. Elrikk being the youngest, sought out a different path then his glorified family. He was fascinated with alchemy and dreamed of one day creating a potion that would cure every known illness, but a senile old wizard stopped by his village and recognized his true potential; magic. He gave the young elf of 80 years old, a spell book and told him to never stop chasing his dreams. His father looked down on him for his interest in magic and alchemy. He eventually kicked him out of the family when he found the spell book. Before Elrikk even reached adulthood, he left his village to explore the world of magic the wizard suddenly appeared again, feeling that it was his fault Elrikk was disowned, he gave him a parting gift so he would not be alone on his journey. He placed Yojen on his head and told him to take good care of him, Yojen is a pet wizard hat that has a mind of its own (kinda like a dog, but can sheath his staff and he can’t cast spells if the staff is sheathed). It’s been 8 years since he and Yojen left his village determined to study magic and alchemy becoming an all powerful Mage that even his dad would be proud of... or so he thinks

What are the guidelines of character creation (point buy, standard array, rolls)? And what about HP increase on level-up (Maximum, average, roll)
Extended Signature
hp increase will be based on how much you roll with a d8 and I would prefer you using rolls for stats
Okay so a d8 instead of a roll that would be for hit dice (barbarians would otherwise use d12 and fighters use d10, for example)? Just asking for clarification
