[D&D-5e] Forgotten Realms: Dales and Daggers

[Xionot]

Name: Omara Bulgar
Race: Mountain Dwarf
Class: Fighter 3 (Champion)
Background: Mercenary Veteran
Age: 25
Gender: Female
Alignment: Lawful Good

Description: Omara is a short and stocky woman who almost never removes her armor. She raves about not caring for her appearance, but she keeps herself and her family crest perpetually clean. Due to the business she's in, she always arranges her hair in such a way as to add an extra foot of height onto her 4'2 body, so people will find her intimidating.



Personality Traits: I idolize my ancestors, and will constantly tell stories of their exploits to impress others and win arguments.

Bonds: I would do anything to defend my family's name... And our Inn of course.

Player Goals: Really, I expect for an open sandboxish campaign like this, we'd be spending plenty of time in abandoned ruins and dungeons. I very much like that pulp-esque storytelling of an episodic nature. The heros walking into town to find something wrong and putting it right while learning about one another and meeting interesting side characters. I added my family's establishment into my backstory in order to give the GM a place to use as an adventure hook if they'd like, but it's completely up to them. My family is also left vague, so as to allow for us to meet any other brothers or sisters who are also out on their adventures.

Character Goals: Really, Omara's goal is the one set out for by everyone in her family, to acquire wealth in order to expand her family's ongoing legacy, The Vulgar Dwarf Inn. She'll acquire this wealth through almost any means, provided they're an honorable way to earn a living. This of course includes killing monsters and taking their treasure. She'll only return to her family for good once she has a husband to return with as well, but she's more focused on the gold for now.

Bio: Omara was born into the sixth generation of the Bulgar clan. From birth she was taught of the utmost rightness of the Bulgar legacy and of her future trials to add onto it. Once she reached the age of sixteen, the family outfitted her with armor, weapons and a little spending money for the road.

Like every member of the Bulgar clan, she went out to seek her fortune and to return it to the Vulgar Dwarf, the inn named in reverence to her great, great, great, great grandfather. Six generations of wealth pouring in has turned the once humble tavern into a veritable fortress complete with a host of hardened adventurers as guards.

For several years, Omara spent her time working in the mercenary business, moving caravans and laying ambushes for bandits who were unfortunate enough to meet her. It was only recently though that she realized that a good number of years had passed and she had made little progress on her mission. Because of this, she has abandoned the soldiering way of life in favor of a more proper adventuring path, hoping it will lead her to a more lucrative, if dangerous way of bringing honor to her family.

(I should mention that I'm pretty experienced with D&D but not with the Forgotten Realms as a setting, aside from playing Baldur's Gate, so I may have things wrong on occasion. You'll have to forgive me for that.)

Still got a bit to go but wondering if the concept of Horace works in what you invision for this campaign?

[Jat]

I'd like to through my hat into the ring, I haven't decided between a sellsword sorcadin tank/healer or a druggie free lance wizard. Both, would be very selfishly inclinded.

Npc: Can you heal my boy?
Him: Got the coin?
Npc: No
Him: I also sell coffins

Escar, The Golden Sellsword Name: Sir Escario, The Golden SpellSword Race: Varient Human Class: Paladin/Sorcerer (Protection Focus) Background: Solider Age: Thirty Two Role: Versatile Frontline Alignment: Neutral Honest Self Personality Traits: I have a joke for every occasion, especially occasions where humor is inappropriate. Ideal: Greed. I will do whatever it takes to become wealthy. I don't Hurt kids. Bond: I owe me life to the arcanist priest who took me in when my parents died. Flaws: Once I start drinking, it's hard for me to stop. I'm a sucker for a pretty face.Description: "About me? Where to start. I don't come cheap. But, my sarcasm and pessimistic attitude are included for free. I'll be frank, I am all about the coin. The more of it the better. If the next guy offers me more maybe you shouldn't be such a cheap ass. But, when you hire me I only got one rule. No kid killing. Hate that sh*t. Not to keen on woman slaying either. Not above it, just ain't that happy when I have to. So what do I DO? The good stuff? I'll protect you, I'll keep you alive, and I will fight for you. I am gonna warn you up front though. I am a heavy drinker, and an overall crap person. When your enemies come for you, you're going to want me given a sh*t about you." Character Goals: Sir Escario wants a tittle. There is a longing within him to rule, he thinks himself the better then any of the noble ruling class. In a way he see's wealth as the primary way to make this happen. However, he spends all of his earnings on liquor, smoke, food, and tail. That's the chief problem he'd probably make a solid commander or a compassionate lord, but he's to sauced for his dreams to become reality. Player Goals: I would love to see Escario return to grace. His struggle is uniquely self imposed. He can't seem to find his footing in the muck as an adventuring healer for hire. Also, him being a martyr could be pretty sweet. As he sucked at life, in his final act he became who he was supposed to be. Description Physical: Standing at a fair five feet eleven inches, his natural build doesn't scream brutish. Instead, there is an uncaring elegance about them man. He's relatively lean, despite the amount of ale he drinks. The beer belly hasn't quite settled in his mid section. Escario keeps his jet black hair long, only cutting it when it starts to get in the way. He wears the steel plate well, there are by far more sturdy knights out their. With massive swords, able to slice through a legion of men. But, our unfriendly hedge knight prefers keeping himself and his charge alive, over killing others. Which is why he prefers a large shield, and his trusty sword to the overbearing alternative. At his core he is still is an arcanist, sometimes sheathing his blade in favor of a freehand to cast potent magical spells. Abilities: Not many can call themselves spellswords for hire, but even that definition is lacking for Escario. Typically, those that dabble in the arcane fundamentally miss the mark of divine execution. However, our Golden Spellsword has not. In part his nickname is due to the holy healing magic he can produce. In the moment his weapon, hands, and silhouette all radiate with golden magical energy. In another life, he would have been a wizard with no equal, or a cleric vanquishing the worst abominations. Yet, in this life he uses his subpar arcane abilities to unlock lackluster healing magic. This all forms a sense of inferiority in Escario. The sense of could be swirls in him, creating a hole only fillable by carnal pleasures. Attitude: Despite his nihilistic outlook, he smiles far to much to keep the facade going. Escar's sense of humor is dry, and less tactful then required. "Got the coin?" Is the closet thing he would have to a catch phrase. "Bandit's have stolen my cattle!" "You got the coin?" My kid is sick, can you heal him? "You got the coin?" But, the truth is that he is far more open to kindness then he lets on. Escario dreams of a day where ever tavern he ventured to would sing drunken songs of admiration.

Posting Interest. Thinking of either Half-Elf Sorcerer or Elven Fighter.

I am debating on retooling a character application that has been chosen once before to only have the campaign burn out. I would have to redo the character sheet from level 9 with your choice of stats so I could just start over again. He was built for a Forgotten Realms game so his backstory won't take too much change.

How do you feel about that, Inuvash?
