Not appropriate
Is there a place on the site to read people’s backstories? I was thinking of looking through everybody else’s for inspiration.
What are the rules for trinket selection? Should I just choose a handful of trinkets for my character to be carrying?
Was it against the rules to carry as many items as I have selected? Can’t I include it in the RP that my character was a hoarder of sorts?
you can roll on the trinket table once for building a character
he/she could be a hoarder and have things in a home but need to start with the same kinda items everyone else does on their character.
OK, so I can have one trinket, randomly selected.
Can I manually select a trinket that fits my character’s lore?
if you want to pick one from the table instead of rolling thats fine. There is a table in the PHB and an optional one in the PDF above for this campaign.
They have a spot for description. I’m the only one who’s put my backstory in there though
Let me know if there are other things I’m supposed to do for this
I know I still have to put up a backstory but other than that I’m under the impression that I’m good
Oh and a trinket i guess
I’ll take a look at every sheet again sometime tomorrow.
Sheets don’t need to be 100% , I just want people to start getting a feel for their character and he/she’s personality. Likes dislikes etc. Any backstory that drives their motivation or reasons for adventuring.
I have a very good feel for my character - It’s me.
Mine as well. I am a method roleplayer. During the time we are playing the game I will also be posting on the outside forum as my character in order to maintain the proper in-character mindsets.
That’s lame and you should feel lame
(no offense I love you)
My character:
He is a High Elf, born into one of the wealthiest families in Sildëyuir. He had a very privileged childhood and was being groomed as the successor, as the only child - of his Father's forestry company. It was not until puberty hit that he found out about his Changeling ability, and when he confronted his father about it, it was revealed that he was the product of his father, and a changeling replicating his mother during birth, as his mother was sterile. He eventually came to terms with this and continued his privileged life, and during his education, he learned to play instruments. He was eventually regarded as a child prodigy when it came to his ability to play nearly every instrument to perfection.
Fast forward 4 years.
He was now 17 years old, and started to grow tired of the monotone life of school, musical practice and sleep. As such, he started to practice his changeling ability, and at first, he used it to prank his friends and relatives. But as time went on, he used it for increasingly more malicious means.such as framing people he disliked for petty crimes they didn't commit, increasing gradually in severity, eventually turning into full-blown murder and rape.
Fast Forward 2 years
He had now perfected his changeling ability, and used it routinely to slander his father's business competitors, and had been visiting brothels in disguise, framing them of child-labor, underpaying their workers, and so on. This eventually led to a private investigation on him, and during a visit to a brothel, where he was too drugged-up to be careful of his surroundings as per usual, he was found out as the culprit. A day later he had no choice but to hide, and it was only due to the huge walls and personal guards that the villa hadn't already been raided. His father then led him into the basement, where he had a portal, one which he originally used to acquire the Changeling used to birth him, and in the nick of time, he escaped.
How is this?
What’s that emote supposed to mean? If it’s shitty/unfitting let me know and I’ll try to rewrite and improve it.
Nah you’re so good you’re bad keep it
