First Post
Ok, I'm drawing on the description of the Laughing Knives organization in the Defenders of the Faith supplement for some of the backstory here, but only backstory, not special rules or anything. Anyone feel free to point out any problems. Also, his domains aren't necessarily going to be all that useful; if you want me to change him to a cleric of Pelor or something, I can just change the backstory.

Backstory:
Galen was only a teenager when his parents were executed by the minions of the corrupt cabal of noblemen who lorded over a small network of villages in the regions to the east. His mother was a cleric and head of a cell of mischief makers known as the Laughing Knives, who tried to spread discontent and undermine the despotic ways of those rulers, while his father ran the tavern that served as the group's front. Galen himself narrowly avoided capture, hiding while his mother and father, as well as other members of the group, were dragged outside the tavern one night and slaughtered by the noblemen's mercenary force. Galen fled the area for his life, making due with small time scams of gullible travelers and townspeople to keep himself fed while he grew to age. His mother had taught him much of the worship of Olidammara as a youngster, and he continued his study in a remote temple he discovered on his way westward, which he was introduced into after unsuccessfully attempting to scam one of the clerics into buying some fake holy water. Now come of age, he seeks to gain experience and skill as an adventurer, and hopes one day to return east to exact his revenge against those responsible for his parent's demise. He intends to use more violent means than his mother's group did, though.
