[QUOTE="Graf, post: 4234982, member: 3087"] @sg Cool. @EvKB I'm really not sure how Dragonborn are going to fit into the setting. If it's OK for now how do you feel about the following: You're a Blackscaled lizardman from Q'barra. The Blackscales are renowned throughout Khorvaire for their savagery and power; rarely seen they dwell deep within the swamps in the eastern continent. When you originally came to Sharn a happenstance encounter between you, ir'Staul and a crazed cultist on a bridge turned into a fast friendship. With his assistance you started off a short career as a mercenary. You were protecting his older daughter during an excavation in the Talenta Plains when he disappeared. You knew Torn, who had a relationship with his younger daughter, vaguely. (what, if anything, you thought about Torn is up to you and WD to work out. You probably know he's a bit of a rake.) [sblock=For EvKB]You aren't really a Blackscaled lizard man; of course. You're dragonborn from Argonnessen who was sent by the Chamber, a group of important wyrms who monitor the lesser races, to Khorvaire. You were specifically instructed to make contact with ir'Staul and prevent his assassination by the cultist. You found him warm and generous, and quickly were able to establish a relationship. You understand that your masters are, or were, interested in him, but don't know why. They were fairly specific that you're suppose to pretend you're a Blackscale, which is honestly, fairly absurd. You've never even been to Q'barra. However your "handler" was very specific. Your handler is, you are sure, a wyrm of some age and a master shapechanger. He appears most frequently to you as a outrageously dressed gnome who calls himself Rowdy (though he showed up once in your cheap motel room as a very attractive female dragonborn in what was probably the most awkward five minutes of your entire life). He seems to love attention, gambling, playing games and acting mysterious and inscrutable. Other than giving your your first instructions to protect ir'Staul he's given you no clear instructions, preferring, when he speaks at all about your mission (as opposed to having you accompany him as a bodyguard around town), to hint portentously and make ominous and contradictory statements. You're sometimes doubt whether the "lizard man" charade is really necessary but Rowdy asserts that it is "of the utmost importance!" and "essential to the successful unfolding of several minor, but key, branches of the prophesy". The problem with working for a dragon, this dragon in particular, is that even if they're telling a little joke the punchline may come a hundred years after you're dead. Your recent mission to Talenta was an attempt to develop a stronger relationship with ir'Staul, possibly demonstrate your worth and become his semi-permanent bodyguard. However upon your return you discovered he'd gone missing. "Rowdy" with great seriousness has asserted that "you simply must find out what happened to him!". [/sblock] Let me know what you think! And I'll put you in the fight now too. [/QUOTE]
