So i guess a brief explanation of the world of Al-Qarin should preface the nitty -gritty. Firstly, the world was named the day EternalNewbie decided to post his story hour. I hate thinking up names for the following reason - every player i've ever played with has the annoying tendency to invalidate names by finding a similar sounding word or phrase that makes it impossible to think of anything but. For instance, i was contemplating using Akrazaria as a world name until its similarity to "Ass-crack-area" was so helpfully pointed out to me. But i digress. There is a creation myth, so to speak, behind this current campaign world. After having had enough with what was available on the market in the way of published campaign settings, a friend of mine came to me and said, "I want to play D&D now. But i'm sick of FR (our then current game setting). Why don't you make a world while i make my character. Here are my stats, btw." So, with that challenge in mind i set about the task of creating said world. Well, enough about me. Here are the characters!
