Yes, I'll allow feats. In 5E, feats are a choice whenever you get an Ability Score Improvement (ASI). You can either take the ASI (+2 to one stat or +1 to two stats) or take a feat that you qualify for. You do not get both. As a pure level 12 fighter, you have four ASIs (lvl. 4, 6, 8, 12) to determine what you want to do with.

Okay I'll probably take two feats and two ASIs then. Thank you for letting me know, I'm still a bit new at this.
It's cool. Making characters is a great way of figuring out the ins and outs of the system. When you're looking at Eldritch Knight, notice that you are restricted in your spell schools. You may want to consider looking up some of the class guides floating around to help you narrow down spell choices. I found the class guides really helpful in teaching me the ins and outs of how this edition worked.

Story:
The tribe of the Cave Bear to which Ursus belonged, was wiped out by slavers looking for fresh meat for the arenas. Young Ursus was one of many children taken and trained in the brutal arts of gladitorial combat. Even though he learnt the martial skills he still clove to his tribal spirits and prayed for the day he could make his escape.
The day came six years after his capture, Ursus and three other gladiators made a run for it. Only Ursus managed to get away. Returning to his tribal lands he found the clan had been rebuilt and found welcome. He through himself back into his barbarian roots with a passion and spent a further seven years living the life of his ancestors.
But his lust for glory had been awakened and the thrill of the hunt was not enough, he left his people seeking adventure and glory.
I still need to look into the magic items.

[sblock="Background"]
Not one for formalities, Ignis, though of goodly nature, tends to burn every bridge he crosses, hopefully after helping any allies over first. It's get the job done, all business. He does not believe in the passive approach. He's fueled by knowing his power helps to cleanse the world of darkness.
Made of fiery stuff, inside and out, caring not for the trivialities of day to day, nor holding on to the past, his time is of the essence, and his hunger for knowledge arcane, specifically pyromancy, spurns his inner thoughts. The flames of his existence fanned with the rumors on the wind of a great wyrm, and where there is a great wyrm, there are secrets waiting to be liberated unto the light of day. Flame on!
Feature: Researcher
When you attempt to learn or recall a piece of lore, if you do not know that information, you often know where and from whom you can obtain it. Usually, this information comes from a library, scriptorium, university, or a sage or other learned person or creature.
Background Traits:
I use polysyllabic words that convey the impression of great erudition.I’m convinced that people are always trying to steal my secrets. I believe nothing should fetter the infinite possibility inherent in all existence. My life’s work is a series of tomes related to pyromancy. Most people scream and run when they see a demon. I stop and take notes on its anatomy..

While holding it, you gain a +2 bonus to Armor Class saving throws, and spell attack rolls. The staff has 20 charges for the following properties. The staff regains 2d8 + 4 expended charges daily at dawn.
If you expend the last charge, roll a d20. On a 1, the staff retains its +2 bonus to attack and damage roll but loses all other properties. On a 20, the staff regain 1d8 + 2 charges.
Power Strike. When you hit with a melee attack using the staff, you can expend 1 charge to deal an extra 1d6 force damage to the target.
Spells. While holding this staff, you can use an action to expend 1 or more of its charges to cast one of the following spells from it, using your spell save DC and spell attack bonus: cone of cold (5 charges), fireball (5th-level version, 5 charges), globe of invulnerability (6 charges), hold monster (5 charges), levitate (2 charges). lightning bolt (5th-level version, 5 charges), magic missile (1 charge), ray of enfeeblement (1 charge), or wall of force (5 charges).Retributive Strike.

The staff is destroyed and releases its remaining magic in an explosion that expands to fill a 30-foot-radius sphere centered on it. You have a 50 percent chance to instantly travel to a random plane of existence, avoiding the explosion. If you fail to avoid the effect, you take force damage equal to 16 x the number of charge in the staff. Every other creature in the area must make a DC 17 Dexterity saving throw.

On a successful save, a creature takes half as much damage.[/sblock]

[sblock=Elemental Gem(red)]This gem contains a mote of elemental (fire) energy. When you use an action to break the gem, an elemental is summoned as if you had cast the conjure elemental spell, and the gem's magic is lost.

Sage
Not one for formalities, Ignis, though of goodly nature, tends to burn every bridge he crosses, hopefully after helping any allies over first. It's get the job done, all business. He does not believe in the passive approach. He's fueled by knowing his power helps to cleanse the world of darkness.
Made of fiery stuff, inside and out, caring not for the trivialities of day to day, nor holding on to the past, his time is of the essence, and his hunger for knowledge arcane, specifically pyromancy, spurns his inner thoughts. The flames of his existence fanned with the rumors on the wind of a great wyrm, and where there is a great wyrm, there are secrets waiting to be liberated unto the light of day. Flame on!
Feature: Researcher
When you attempt to learn or recall a piece of lore, if you do not know that information, you often know where and from whom you can obtain it. Usually, this information comes from a library, scriptorium, university, or a sage or other learned person or creature.
Background Traits:
I use polysyllabic words that convey the impression of great erudition.I’m convinced that people are always trying to steal my secrets. I believe nothing should fetter the infinite possibility inherent in all existence. My life’s work is a series of tomes related to pyromancy. Most people scream and run when they see a demon. I stop and take notes on its anatomy..

All finished, Background short to the point, seeing as only a one shot
(I also ran out of flame references
)
item charges:
Necklace of Fireballs has [roll0] Beads
Keoghtom's Ointment has [roll1] Doses
I enjoyed making this guy, I might use him as a bad guy and have my players come up against him soon ( they are level 6-7 in my 5e Homebrew)

[sblock=Background]She liked to swim. The water was a balm. The morning she saw him, she swam in a narrow cove of cold clear water off the coast of the Korinn Archipelago, frolicked in the green waves, delighted in the play of sea foam along the water's edge.
The man rounded the rocky shore and came upon her before she could dart beneath the waves. He walked along the shore, the horsehair of his helm and his epaulets glinting in the sun. Something in the set of his shoulders spoke of a secret that bore like a stone upon him.
Thelxiope, lost in a well of love, watched the soldier for long moments. She could leave the sea, but that would mean a half-life. A life confined to legs that walked, to the indignity of feet, to breathing air. As she considered the man, the sun moved from behind a cloud, lighting his hair on fire. Thelxiope's heart swelled. She left the sea forever.
The tryst was worth it. For three weeks, Thelxiope and the soldier languished in one another's companionship along the shores of the archipelago. She woke the last morning of the third week to find him gone. Trouble brewed in the world of men, she knew. Even a siren hears snippets of rumor. Her solider was on his way to war.
Thelxiope slept fitfully the first six nights after her lover's absence. The morning of the seventh day, she woke from a dream rife with death. She would wait no more. Nay, she would hunt. For love. For life. For ruin, if need be. She would find him.[/sblock]
