No worries! I took the weekend off and pretended like ENWorld didn't exist, and so haven't read anyone's character sheets yet. Once I finish reading through and replying to everyone's weekend questions/concerns, I'm going to start my laundry and then I'll probably sit down to at least read through what's in the character sheet thread (though responding to full-on character sheets usually takes me longer because I like to vet the numbers if at all possible).

I also fleshed out her history. Her low charisma isn't a dump stat, it's character hook! That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Good story--stick to it. Dump stats are a normal part of D&D--the lowest number has to go somewhere, after all. Good for you that you got some mileage out of it.

Also, I worked out a connection for Sandpoint. Elyra travels as widely as possible most of the year, but has wintered in Sandpoint the last two years. She has found a number of good unclaimed hunting grounds within a few days' hike of the town, so she supplements her savings from the year by making several trips to go trapping. The rapidly growing town also offers her good chances for odd jobs.

She has returned early this year because she got a good offer to escort someone (perhaps a PC) to the Swallowtail festival. She is debating leaving to try to pull in a little more work after the festival, or finding local work during the harvest and settling in for the winter.

You could be escorting the lightening sorceror, the cleric, and/or the paladin back to Sandpoint. I haven't read through everyone's completed backstories yet (indeed, does everyone have a backstory posted?), but one of the three or all of the three may have been assigned a trail guide.
