Welcome, fellow adventurers, to the first installment of The Forgotten Story, a tale of heroes and monsters set in the land of Faerun. (Please note; text in bold red are links to sources which present additional information regarding the locations, cultures, and characters you will encounter in this adventure)
Premise and Adventure Hook It is a fell time for the dragonborn clans of Tymantherand the varied races and cultures in the area surrounding the Crippled Mountain. An empire of undead fire giants has risen from beneath the Crippled Mountain to wage war on the dragonborn and their allies, and red ruin and death stalk the land. Anala, the desperate matriarch ofClan Verthisathurgiesh, has requested resources and warriors to combat the fire giant threat, and you have answered her call.
1) Cleft was born into a tribe living in the Methwood 2) Cleft loves to run and explore. After the destruction of a part of Methwood where his tribe lived, he had no reason not to set out to make a name for himself as a mercenary. 3) A large section of his forest was burned to the ground by the undead fire giant horde and would like nothing more than to destroy them all... especially if he can get paid to do it.
Backstory: Bastard son of a slave and a nobleman. Joined military in order to earn father's recognition, improve mother's lifestyle and better his own skills. During one mission, came into contact with an ancient sealed beast, The Dread Wolf, Fenrir. Using his power, he completed his mission, but gained the fear and jealousy of his superiors, who conspired with his father to chain him up, trow him in a hole, then throw away the hole. During his imprisonment, he discovered that his mother had long since died. Fenrir offered him a pact, so that they could free each other, which Garrus agreed. Now he seeks to increase his own power to one day free his benefactor and friend.
Questions:
1. His prison/cage was in The High Ice. 2. increasing his own power, freeing his patron and revenge against those who wronged him. In that order. 3. To test himself and increase his power.
Where is your character from? Daggerford What drives your character to adventure? He seeks to find the one that murdered his father. What are your character's motives for joining the alliance to combat the undead fire giant threat? Rumors that his father's murderer was in the area, but also to help the Dragonborn settlement.

Had to look into Faerun a bit to get some ideas together
Half-orc, rogue, named Ogged
https://www.dndbeyond.com/profile/Benismyusername/characters/7479693
no worries, it's an easy change
Nice characters btw guys. Never seen how a centaur works. Gonna be fun. Also I love rping.
Oops also
1) Ogged is from one of the offset islands that's not very big. Theres not much money here so you must follow the wealth.
2) money drives everyone.
3) fire giants take what they want, much like thieves. They must have a great haul of loot... Right?
BIG UPDATE: Starting level has changed to 5th to better combat giant threats.
3 positions taken, 1-3 remaining!

HOLY CRAP LVL 5
That was the idea all along I just made an error and said 1st level by mistake. :P

Question... so my starting equipment give me 2 shortswords... can I swap them out for 2 battle axes instead? They cost the same amount of gold
Go for it.

I am unable to view the character sheet.
Flayr Flameseeker | Genasi/Fire | Wizard/School of Evocation | Level 2 | Custom Campaign: Cold Cash
Sorry about that! Should be working now
Edit: The link was acting up. I have no idea why, had to change it several times.
DM - GA's Baldur's Gate
Afraid not. Alternatively you can just post your name, race, class, and ability score modifiers.

I have no idea what is going on with the link, it's throwing mad hate at me. But, it works now. I double checked. So sorry for all that.
DM - GA's Baldur's Gate
Still not working. :P There are two possible explanations that I can think of.
1. The link leads to Edit Character, which only the creator can view, rather than View Character.
2. Character status is set to private instead of public.
