You have been warned that it might not pass if the other players do not want to engage with your story. By the way, I did recognize Thorin, I just did not cared enough to mention the obvious lack of originality.  So, again, you seem to believe that having people creating characters together is inferior to have people creating a team formed of unshared and individual origins. There are many advantages to building such a team (the first one), the least of these is cohesion. Your way is not the only way just as our way is not the only way nor is my way creating empty shells of bland tasteless characters. If you agree with such a statement you are very misguided indeed. There is a difference with backstory and a story that develop from play. We much prefer to start with a basic story and have the character evolve and enrich the story from the actions, decisions and interactions of the charater than to have a character with a mile long back story that may not fit with anyone at the table or the campaign at hand.Edit:" added a few words missing, damn the autocorrector ".</blockquote>
