[QUOTE="Carnifex, post: 14469, member: 227"] Well, in my old Planescape campaign, there was some elements of this kind of thing. The bariaur fighter/Champion of Va'asha didn't have any old family ties, though when he became an important member of the Ragers sect they became a bit akin to a family for him. The half-dragon paladin had a very odd family - after being seduced by a erinyes, she bore a child who she raised as a anti-paladin in hell. This character, his son, came back to haunt the party later on as the right-hand man of a very powerful baatezu mage. Both Palanar (the son) and the erinyes princess survived the entire campaign. The enchantress managed to compliacte things by beginning a sort of love affair with Palanar - they first met in the City of Splinters in Baator, and things developed from there, usually on a battlefield when they were both on opposing sides, She did manage to bring out some of the good streak within him thta came from his fathers heritage, and saved his life from a solar's killing blow once - the rest of the party really weren't very happy about that, though the paladin father was in a bit of a tricky dilemma over it. The drow rogue had no family ties after he had been cut off from his people by arriving in Sigil and realising that frankly he had more opportunity here than he would ever have back in the oppresive drow society. IF anything, the closest he got to a family was the Fated faction. The aasimar cleric had no family, nor any real relations - I'm sad to say that the player just didn't roleplay very well during that campaign, and the character was rather two-dimensional. Finally the Sensate tiefling sorceror/rogue... well, he had lots of liasons and one-night stands, but nothing more serious than that :) In my current campaign, which has only just started, I'm hoping to develop this side of things fairly well since I have some truly excellent roleplayers on hand.
