[QUOTE="Arctic Wolf, post: 5746848, member: 6686199"] True, it does sound like more of a story and I should prolly write it down instead. I will reconsider maybe making some events the characters can affect and add it in there. The backstory I had for this guy is that he was a servent of Vecna who searched for rare items and while looking with 2 of his close friends he came across an old tome for the demon lord ritual and stole it before the others could fully investiage. He accidently uses it and finds out his magic is somewhat different then before and he can combine with it like an elemental. I mean I wasn't going to make him evil because he still isn't sure what happens, prolly at paragon is when I was going to start throwing in the demon form that he can't handle and ending up in an area of dread and learning to control it from a dreadlord who found the same tome but just can't bring himself to fully embrace it. The way I set up the story for when the characters come in is they will meet at the north-most city-state capital accidently from the gangs that will try to attack them. They will then be hired by a mysterious figure (who is the queen) to take out these gangs. For most of heroic they are taking care of local things and then moving south and winding up to that dread area as I said earlier. After that will be paragon and they will end up defending the planet they are on from threats from the east continent. They will come back in epic tier just in time for a war with another city-state who basically can't stand the north city-state because it is basically a melting pot and they are human. So after the war they have to deal with an undead threat from the west and so on from there. Do you think this is still walking a thin line? P.S. I do plan on incorporating the character's background into the story so it doesn't feel like too much focusing on this one character. [/QUOTE]
