[QUOTE="Shiroiken, post: 7869595, member: 6775477"] The best of mine was a Gold Elf from Evermeet (in the Forgotten Realms) who's family was disgraced. His father was a powerful high mage who helped power the defenses and my mother was a druid who tended to the land. My elder brother and sister, however, sided with a renegade elf to attack Evermeet, distracting my parents to bypass the defenses. The attack was eventually repelled, but my mother was killed and my father became withdrawn. I vowed to redeem my family name, and sailed to the mainland with my friend and bodyguard (another PC). Over the course of the campaign, we found that my brother had allied with the Fayrie (demon elves, possibly misspelled). They attempted to seduce me as well, and almost succeeded, since they had the rest of the party captured and were torturing them until I agreed. We managed to escape, but I never forgave myself for leading the party into that trap. Eventually when we faced them again, much later in the campaign (they'd allied with the Shadowvar, the other major threat in the campaign), I was forced to face my brother's daughter, deciding if I could kill her. I couldn't, almost dying, but my bodyguard was able to finish her off instead. [/QUOTE]
