[QUOTE="Lazlow, post: 3260686, member: 24242"] [b]Party background ideas[/b] Well, after reading over the bits of everyone's background, it looks like there's a natural "in" for most of us who've submitted characters so far: The military. Padraig is a grizzled veteran who left to become an adventurer, Gwennath was a one-time army mage, and Little Gil served some time in an archer's regiment. Rorom could easily have served at some time as well. Maybe we veterans could have all served together, at least at some point in the past, before leaving the military and banding together. As for the others, Alton and Gwennath already seem to have some history behind them. Both Zagnak and Little Gil are half-orc, so maybe they could've grown up together in the same tribe before they went their separate ways, and were later reunited as adventurers. Ruathen is the tough nut here, although he's already established himself as a bit of a loner and an outsider. Perhaps after a few years of solo adventuring he's decided to study the ways of the group dynamic? That's seven submitted characters so far: 3 fighty types (Padraig, Alton, and Rorom) 1 magicky types (Gwennath) 1 fighty-magicky type (Ruathon) 1 magicky-fighty-healy type (Zagnak) 1 sneaky type (Little Gil) A little light on the spellcasting (divine, especially) and heavy on the combat (our Druid's got a 22 STR (!), and even my Rogue is half Fighter), but that's not too bad considering the DM's already made it known that the combat will be vicious :] . Maybe he won't have to drop anyone...? <hint hint> [/QUOTE]
