[QUOTE="Xorne, post: 6337215, member: 61194"] [COLOR=#000000]I guess heroes are as legendary as you want them to be. I wouldn't call our game epic by any means--but the characters are actual heroes, not just some random group that met in a tavern. Each of them came from somewhere and is going places. The first guy is a ranger ginsu build, and frankly would be pretty boring without the background. The barbarian? King is a self-claimed title, and enslaved implies it wasn't recognized. The rest of his background is in "Escaped Gladiator" actually. :P The high druid is a bastard half-elf son with no interest in being a druid (he's a bard), and a devotion to the Priestess. He has a conflicted relationship to the High Druid, who doesn't want to acknowledge him. The dwarf is a ranger as well (str based) and apparently in my world, he was the first dwarven ranger. The "great orc invasion" could just be what his village called it--it's not necessarily recognized. And the last guy is a sorcerer, though he might change to a chaos mage now. No one knows about his past or the demon. The most legendary of the lot is really the barbarian, and that's just because he's frequently recognized by gladitorial fans in civilized places.[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
