Just missed James Heard's contribution...I'll add yours later today, James, I'm already late for work!). Lots of good ideas already, I can tell that it's going to be a challenge to narrow the field after Friday passes. But, that's a good thing! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> I wanted to address a couple of other points, also...There's no such thing as too many submissions! The way the process works is that I will accept character concepts from as many people as wish to submit them until Friday June 22nd. After that deadline passes, I will choose the five players, and we'll go from there.Great question! It's actually a new weapon, although stats for it have not yet been released. Here is its description from the blog on Paizo's website.Star of Desna: An ancient weapon favored by Varisian wanderers, this weapon has been adopted by the church of Desna as a second holy weapon. From a central metal ring, four tapering metal blades extend like points on a compass rose. Wielders can slash with the star or throw it like a less-aerodynamic chakram.The blog also has a sketch of the weapon. The fact is, I highly recommend that everyone who is interested in this game head over to the blog there, and check it out. There are all kinds of neat things there regarding the module line, and Pathfinder mag...campaign world tidbits, maps, new monsters, excellent artwork...very good stuff. I'd start at the bottom and work your way up. Here is a link:<a href="http://paizo.com/paizo/blog" target="_blank">Paizo's Blog!</a> A map of the nation of Varisia has been posted on the afore-mentioned blog. However, I think this is the setting for the Rise of the Runelords adventure path from the Pathfinder magazines. I believe I read somewhere that Falcon's Hollow is not located in Varisia...or, I may be misremembering, I'm not 100% sure. Anyhow, you are right in saying that, for now, it is best to hold off on geographical details for character backgrounds.Thanks, and keep the great character ideas coming! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /></blockquote>
