MEDITATIONS ON THE PARTY
Torban Pruitt. Human braggadocio of the first class. I approve.
Willow. If I can't make her laugh, I'll only feel the guilt of what I unleashed on her clan all the moreso.
Vintar Dardelion.
Lal Qalandar.
Dynan. Beware a stylish drow. He's likely to upstage me with the ladies.
Niimyr. Seems like the kind of drow I'd enjoy sharing an ale with (after checking the ale for poison first).
Ka'Lysh "Harb" Lorreak.
Dandin Applesbane. We are two peas in a pod.
Thorn. I wonder how many jokes about her horns I can safely get away with?

BACKGROUND
Born to the heathen Shiasee wild elves of the Deep Wilds, Quickleaf spent his youth absorbing his people’s superstitions and traditions. Like all Shiasee, he knew that humans built roofed houses because they were afraid of the rain gods, orcs were descended from lustful gluttonous swine, and drow had chalky skin because they didn’t have enough elfwine in their diet. Raised among the “Deep Wilds Seekers”, rangers guarding the borders of the forest, he helped perpetuate the myth of wild elven savagery to deter human fools. When he was tasked with protecting the Emerald Eye, a sacred totem of the clan said to be a gateway to the elven ancestors, Quickleaf instead opted to demonstrate his bow tricks to some passing “generous” human merchants. The arboreal shrine where the Emerald Eye was kept was attacked by unknown assailants who stole the totem. For dereliction of his duty, Quickleaf was exiled from his clan until he could make ammends to the elven ancestors. He traveled to the north, in search of the Forbidden Barrows where it was believed the ancestors of his clan were buried…

Torban Pruitt
Human Fighter 1
Folk Hero AL CG
Str 18 Dex 14 Con 16 Int 7 Wis 16 Cha 12
[sblock=Background]
Eldest son of the Pruitt clan, Torban is a big deal in his village, something he knows all too well, as he believes he is a much bigger fish than he is. From fighting of deadly wolves at 6 years old, to hunting the legendary Black Stag, he is the closest the village has to a hero. There are even some songs about him. He considers himself to be above all of the rest of the village, deserving the best, and always talking about how the village isn’t enough, and he needs more action.
He’s Brave and strong, yes, but he is not really bright enough to use his gifts to their fullest. He’s a big deal in his village, sure, but he’s also the richest and handsomest eligible male for miles around.
When the rumors about the undead started up, he was gravely insulted by the barber’s sending a request for help from the sovereign. He thinks that he, with his local friends could take this on. He eventually got used to the idea of strangers coming in, but he is insistent he go on the mission to show these outsiders what the village can do.
[/sblock]
[sblock=”Appearance & Personality”]
Traits: Torban is filled with bravado, and often loves to hear himself speak.
He is very unaware of his limitations
Ideal: The greatest good is to Protect the weak and unfortunate.
Bond: Torban is a loyal and devoted member of his family.
Flaw: He is a big fish in a little pond who thinks he'd be a bigger fish in a bigger pond.

Willow, Wood Elf Druid
[SBLOCK=Backstory]
"Willow's stringy black hair hangs down over her ghostly white face, obscuring what most would call her best feature: her pale blue eyes. She is quite healthy, though those concerned may think she looks underweight, even for an elf. Her clothes are unkempt and often dusty from the road. A small snake appears at home wrapped around the crooked quarterstaff she holds in her wiry fingers.
Those who once knew Willow would say she was beautiful, vibrant, and full of life. She learned the ways of the druid while acting as a scout for the druid circle. At any time should cound be found travelling through the treetops, her raven hair flowing easily behind her, and the sparkle in her pale blue eyes a shining glimmer of hope that all is right in the world.
But those days are gone now, and Willow lives a lone drifter, unkempt and dusty from the road. Her once beautiful hair now hangs in a tangled mass, covering her gaunt face. Her eyes still shine the purest blue beneath the miserable creature she has become, but the sparkle of hope for which they were known has long since faded.
As a scout, she should have seen it. She should have been able to warn them, but the necromancer's magic was too strong, too vile. His hoards of undead stormed the grove, destroying everything--and everyone. Those few that survived fled, leaving the others to their fate. She will never forgive herself that she ran.
She returned to the grove some days later, her and a few others. Together they collected what was left of the fallen and destroyed the lingering undead, both old and newly created from the bodies of her friends and family. Ritual after ritual was performed, sending their orphaned souls home, and then Willow left without a word."

BACKGROUND
Born into Meviiran, Vintar was a fat lazy child. He hated exertion and like to read so shirked as much as he could to get the time to study that he really craved. Despite the thrashings from his father he kept finding ways to get to the books in the church and spend hours studying history and anything else that came to mind. He eventually hatched his cunning plan of becoming an understudy to the drunken priest and writing his sermons for him and ensuring that his perpetual state of inebriation guaranteed the priest NEVER realised he had never agrees to take Vintar on. Life was great now for the young man, until his God called his bluff.

[Sblock=Background] Lal Qalandar is from a far away land, across the sea from the Sovereign Lands. Following harsh disappointments in early life, Lal retreated from the day to day world and entered a long period of meditation and fasting with a group of ascetics, leaving everything behind, even his name (Lal Qalandar means "Ruby-colored wandering holy man" - a title he eventually acquired after his red robes and lifestyle).
One day, Lal, following an intense session of meditation, suddenly perceived his deep connection to the Universe. All was interconnected. Himself, that ant roaming on his meager piece of bread, his dead relatives and long lost love, his fellow monks, that rock over there, were all one with the universe. Individuality was but an illusion.
Lal Qalander suddenly felt that the austere practices of his fellows were stifling. He was meant to live in the Universe, to fully embrace it. He wanted to preach. He wanted to help others - was that not the Universe healing itself? He also wanted to fight injustice - was that not the Universe purifying itself? Lal abandoned the group of monk and started a life of wandering - sustaining himself through petty jobs, preaching, helping the less fortunate, protecting travelers from brigands and living on the road. He took upon himself the mantle of the Dervishe - the mendicant wanderer. Through his trials and tribulation he found that his connection to the Universe deepened, and that in times of great danger he could reach a sort of spiritual ecstasy, able to wade in battle without fear, easily warding off blows and dealing terrible ones in return.
On a sea voyage, a freak storm blew the ship he was on far away, and he and a few survivors reached the Sovereign Lands, to the astonishment of everyone. Lal Qalandar's lifestyle and teaching soon became problematic however, upsetting some of the local clergy. When word came of troubles far north, he was sent as part of the "rescue" party as a way to get rid of him. Lal cheerfully accepted the order. [/sblock]

Lal Qalandar is somewhat short but wide shouldered and barrel chested and moves confidently. He has an easy smile and friendly disposition. His skin is a dark brown, tanned by his homeland's fierce sun. He has long, dark luxurious hair that is barely tamed by a peculiar hat, and his face is bearded. He wears crimson robes, old but sturdy boots, and the pelt of some large animal to keep himself warm. He also wears a long necklace of wooden prayer beads. Beside his long hafted axe (which he calls a "tabar"), he always caries with him an ornate wooden begging bowl, which he uses to collect alms.
Life of Seclusion: Lal retreated from society following a plague that killed most of his village
Personality trait: Lal believes that the universe is one, and that all that happens is interconected
Ideal: Self knowledge: if you know yourself, you know the universe

[sblock=Dynan]
For Dynan, life was very different than for his brother. His mother, the matron of his house, wanted him to go to the Warrior Academy, as his older brother was already training to be a wizard. When he was tested, he was found above average in every subject. Strength, dexterity, intelligence, charisma. Not the best in any one, but well above average in all. In fact, it seemed there was little he could not do if he put his mind to it.
It was found out that his mother's consort, the house weapon master at the time, was having an affair with one of her sisters. She, of course, had the two executed, and forbade everyone in the house from ever speaking her consort's name, or having anything to do with them. When Dynan brought up the fact that he would have to train at the Warrior's academy, where her consort had been one of the top students, she flew into a rage and refused to allow him to go, forcing him, apparently against his will, into the wizarding academy.
And of course he excelled. He learned quickly, barely needing to work hard to memorize complex spells and understanding the complexities of the Weave. He proved very quickly to be the top of his class, and his elders even wondered if, in a few centuries, this boy would one day become the archmage of the city.
And through his entire first century of life, though his entire time at the Academy, one thing remained constant.
Dynan was bored.
The reality was that it was not his mother's idea to get him to go to the wizard academy, but his. He not only subtly revealed the affair between his mother's consort and her sister, but was actually the one, through more subtle manipulations, encouraged his mother's consort to start the affair in the first place. All so he could go to the wizarding academy instead. Not because he really wanted to, but he had learned a long time ago that, because of his natural ability with just about everything, the only real challenge was getting other people to do things for you, and he wanted to see if he could manipulate his own mother.
He thought that in the Academy, he'd finally be challenged, but that wasn't the case. Too many of the other drow were boring, stupid idiots compared to him. His teachers were old fashioned and lacked creativity. Drow culture was stagnating.
So while at the Academy, he would go out, in disguise, and prowl the city, finding entertainment, which usually meant conning some poor sap out of his inheritance, and then slipping away, changing disguise, and walking off, no one the wiser.
When he graduated from the Academy, he had grown tired of life in the Drow city. It was just so...boring. And there really wasn't much profit to be made as a Drow male. No, he would be much better served somewhere else. Another Drow city? No, surely not. And the other denizens of the Underdark were just so...boring. Perhaps he could find his brother, who had recently reappeared after a long hiatus from the city. Maybe he would have an idea of where to find some fun.[/sblock]

PHYSICAL APPEARANCE
[sblock]This, but paler.
[/sblock]
Like most of his kin, Niimyr has a slender and graceful physique and his flawless face is hauntingly beautiful. Apart from four long braids, his white hair is clipped short, revealing his pointed ears and giving the dark elf a distinct appearance.
Nymiir usually dresses in black and silver hues, highlighting his complexion and the silvery gleam in his hair. The smile on his face has been described as devilishly alluring or insanely scary, depending on the onlooker and the situation.
PERSONALITY
Personality Traits: Lies and flattery are my preferred tricks for getting what I want. I always have a plan for what to do when things go wrong.
Ideal: Chains are meant to be broken, as are those who would forge them. Down with the drow matriarchy!
Bond: A powerful fey creature holds my fate in its hands, granting me power but surely asking a steep price eventually.
Flaw: I'm convinced that no one could ever fool me the way I fool others. Also, I have an irrational fear of rats and butterflies.
BIO
Born into a typical drow noble family, Niimyr grew up in a ruthless, dangerous world of betrayal and murder. Being a mere male and thus never able to reach any truly important positions of power, the best way to achieve some influence was magic, and thus, like so many before him, Niimyr went to wizardry academy.
But he enjoyed the prestige of his heritage and being an aspiring mage too much. Many were the days that Niimyr got away with minor offenses in the local taverns or bragged to a group of commonborn friends about his prowess on the fields of magic, dueling and romance, while avoiding any hard work. For quite a while, his family and teacher indulged him, until eventually a miscast spell cost two fellow students their life; students who came from a noble family with far more power and influence.
Niimyr was thrown out of the academy, the thieving and fencing venture he had started in school and had been tolerated thus far was forcefully disbanded, many of its common members incarcerated. But worse, Niimyr would have to face his tyranical mother for being a failure, reflecting poorly on the family and causing embarressment and diplomatic disaster; in contrast, his brother Dynan excelled as an apprentice wizard!
Staying would certainly mean the death of Niimyr, so the roguish young drow fled the city with two friends. Into the dangerous underground world they went, at first seeking a path to another drow city but eventually getting lost and hoping just to find any sort of civilisation.
Perhaps they passed a circle of ancient monoliths, or unknowingly stepped through a portal created by subterranean fungi once every full moon; how they ended up in the Feywild, none of them knew, but nonetheless they found themselves in a place where colors were painfully brighter, darkness was infinitely deeper, and creatures were strange and very deadly. And a haunting melody followed their steps for days.
It was only when one of his companions was ripped apart, exploding in a bloody mess of various body parts across the cavern, that they noticed they were followed by... something. A smiling, horned figure with hooves for feet, his hands bloody and his eyes feral, looked upon the dark elves as if watching ants dance in circles.
Hyrsam the Savage, Prince of Fools, had come.
Instead of killing them, Hyrsam led the drow to a place where his followers were feasting, dancing and making merry music. Confused, Niimyr and his companion followed their instructions, eager to avert being murdered by the powerful fey. They ate, they drank, they danced, they sung, and somewhere along the line, they started dreaming, for there was no other way they could explain the memories. They dreamed of blood, screams, sex, pain; killing, loving, drinking, laughing, hurting, and killing.
When Niimyr woke up, his head hurt. He opened his eyes and found himself alone in a dark alley just outside his family's estate. He reeked of sweat and garbage, and his naked arms and torso were covered in blood red tattoos of odd vines and creatures never seen before. Under his head, he found a curious book, elegant and with a small flower on the cover whose petals seemed to move and change color as if triggered by some event or atmosphere. Inside, pages upon pages with mystical markings, indecipherable but seeming to make words or images when looking past them.
And most significantly, Niimyr discovered he had magical power at his fingertips, without having to study any dusty tomes. A familiar melody resounded in his head, with the echo of Hyrsam's laughter, quickly followed by a soft little laugh from the young dark elf.
With his newfound power, Niimyr would rebuild his criminal organization, bigger and more importantly, with him too far away for any drow to find. He had heard about the naive and helpless peoples on the surface world, whose riches were invaluable down here.
If only he could find an excuse to lure his wizard brother into his plan....

Thin and muscular Harbs face looks more like someone who forgot to shave for a week than one that has grown a beard. His blue eyes show a troubled man who has seen the horrors of war and his expression is most often plain but when he does show emotion he seems to do so with his whole body. His left cheek is slightly larger than the other, and his left eye stays slightly more closed, the reminder of an injury he suffered in battle that didn't properly heal.

[sblock]
Darkvision: Thanks to your elf blood, you have superior vision in dark and dim Conditions. You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in Darkness as if it were dim light. You can’t discern color in Darkness, only shades of gray.
Fey Ancestry: You have advantage on saving throws against being Charmed, and magic can’t put you to sleep.
[/sblock]
Background: Soldier
Feature: Rank
[sblock] You have a military rank from your career as a soldier. Soldiers loyal to your former military organization still recognize your authority and influence, and they defer to you if they are of a lower rank. You can invoke your rank to exert influence over other soldiers and requisition simple equipment or horses for temporary use. You can also usually gain access to friendly military encampments and fortresses where your rank is recognized. [/sblock]
Class: Paladin
[sblock]
Divine Sense
The presence of strong evil registers on your senses like a noxious odor, and powerful good rings like heavenly music in your ears. As an action, you can open your awareness to detect such forces. Until the end of your next turn, you know the location of any celestial, fiend, or Undead within 60 feet of you that is not behind total cover. You know the type (celestial, fiend, or undead) of any being whose presence you sense, but not its identity
You can use this feature a number of times equal to 1 + your Charisma modifier. When you finish a Long Rest, you regain all expended uses.
Lay on Hands
Your blessed touch can heal wounds. You have a pool of Healing power that replenishes when you take a Long Rest. With that pool, you can restore a total number of hit points equal to your paladin level x 5.
As an action, you can touch a creature and draw power from the pool to restore a number of hit points to that creature, up to the maximum amount remaining in your pool.
Alternatively, you can expend 5 hit points from your pool of Healing to cure the target of one disease or neutralize one poison affecting it. You can cure multiple Diseases and neutralize multiple Poisons with a single use of Lay on Hands, expending hit points separately for each one.

BACKGROUND
[sblock]
A promising young captain in the Dukes army {name} was expected by superiors to raise quickly through the commoner’s ranks. One of 3 favorites for a promotion he was to lead a small force to a border town that was under attack. They arrived and were greatly outmatched. The unit routed and he lost most of his men. Wounded, laying there bleeding out as the enemy razed the village, unspeakable things done to women and children, old men put to the sword. He awoke in a church being tended to with the few other survivors.
He later heard rumors that command felt the village was of no importance and that it needed to be lost in order to have just cause for war with a neighbor in order that the Duke could take some valuable lands from a rival.
When he was well he was given removed from the army and his sacrifice was complete. He stayed at the church and prayed, studied, tried to forget his anger, his shame, to hide from his failure to save those people despite the odds. In his effort to hide he started going by the simple name "Harb".
One day screams came from outside the church. His new home was being attacked. It seems the war they had wanted had found him in his new home. He had not removed his sword from it’s scabbard since that crushing defeat, but he did then, he would not stand by while these people died pawns of some noble. And fight he did, and as he struck his enemies down his sword began to glow and the words of Pelor filled his mind as he protected the people.

Lightfoot Halfling / 1st-level Bard / CN
BACKGROUND
Dandin grew up on the streets. He got caught stealing once. Once. After that he was far more careful and learned to rely more on his wits and his natural charisma. Eventually, he caught the eye of one of the local merchants who brought him in as an apprentice. Over the ensuing 5 years he learned much of the business world and more importantly, how to wheel and deal with the best of them. Eventually he earned enough to set himself up with a cart, a mule and a small load of supplies. Bidding his mentor goodbye he set off towards his destiny.
