>OC Development Questions:
>Does your OC have/want children?
Mary would love to have kids one day
>What was your OCs first fling like?
Fling?
>Did your OC train in combat, or learn it some other way?
She doesn't like hitting things all too much, but she will help out the people who are hitting the things for her!
>Why do they wear the armor style that they do?
Because her mother said it looked cute on her, and all her part memebrs armor recommendations for her where far too skimpy
>>47710659
Opening with a new OC of my own from last thread.
Name: Paar'tol, the Elderplague
Role: Ward against spirits, black magic, and all forms of supernatural predators.
Goals: Use his education of the inner workings of the sides of Light and Dark as a benefit to mankind, casting out those who would victimize innocent lives.
Traits: Has a mentor-like mindset, loves a listening ear and to teach others ways to protect themselves through clever application of charms, trinkets, and rituals.
Flaws: When encountering an adversary he's unfamiliar with, Paar'tol is on edge to a fault, often becoming blocked mentally as he tries to formulate a plan of action. This can slow down his reflexes and clog his mind.
Enemies: Hidden witch covens pepper the lands Paar'tol resides in, and it's his duty to flush them out into the light.
He got his name of "Elderplague" after taking a local mercenary band that was hired to clear out a coven preying on a small farmtown and assisting them in victory.He didn't do anything to 'earn' the nickname, it was just something this contractor group did for fun, and it stuck. I mean, they gave the other guy the name Wardbreaker, which Paar'tol is pretty jealous of.
• Name: Antonio de Torres, son of Felipe de Torres, proud son of Magritta!
• Role(s): Whatever strikes his fancy. Technically a duelist by training.
• Goals: None! Or rather, ever-changing. On any given day he'll tell you that he wants to invent a new dueling style, start his own academy, seduce the Countess of Nuln, fight the hordes of the north...mostly he just wants to drink, carouse, and wake up somewhere interesting every day.
• Traits: Friendly, honorable, generous, brave, loyal, fearless
• Flaws: Extremely credulous, unfaithful to women, easily bored and distracted, easily diverted by fashion and pageantry, easily angered, jumps to conclusions
• Allies: Tends to vary based on who he's traveling with. Previous comrades included an eternally-pessimistic Kislevite who he endlessly annoyed with his credulity, a vengeful Norscan mercenary, a barmy adventuress from Bilbali, a sour-tempered dwarfen miner, and others.
• Enemies: A fellow Estalian, one Ramon de Robledo, with whom he had a long quarrel while still enrolled in a military academy. A duel between the two saw Antonio nearly killed and ultimately expelled. Antonio has vowed to kill him if they ever cross paths again.
• Other Relations: Antonio has two brothers and a mother and father. He also had an uncle who was a sea captain for his father's shipping company, but vanished and is presumed dead. Antonio is closest to his middle brother, Esteban, who resembles him in appearance but is a much cooler-tempered, more cynical man, crippled in his youth by polio. Antonio's father Felipe was molding his oldest son to take over the family shipping business, but Antonio's reckless behavior spoiled these plans. As a result, mercurial Antonio and his staid, analytical father are not on speaking terms.
• Physical Description: Tall, handsome, with a clean-shaven face, blue eyes, and jet-black hair. Perpetually wears a smile and the latest fashions his quickly-spent coin can buy.
>>47710705
Rashad shall start this off!
>Does your OC have/want children?
Heros have big families! everyone knows that! Thats why when he finds the perfect lady(ies) he'll want to have no less than seven children (Per). Seven is a lucky number afterall.
>What was your OCs first fling like?
Back in his previous life as Tomas Morrisant, His mother set him up with one of the other noble family's daughter. She was a decent girl to be sure. But they both lost interest in each other. Mainly because of Tomas's NEETness and his unwillingness to discuss anything but heroic literature.
>Did your OC train in combat, or learn it some other way?
Once again When Rashad was known at Tomas. His mother insisted that he do something physical so he didn't waste away nose deep in a tome.
Cleverly, His mother impressed upon him that he'd have a greater apperication of the heroes in his books if he knew something about swordplay. Sadly all the more regal fencing instructors were booked solid with the other families. So they settled for a former mercenary from the Desert.
Teaching him the ways of the saber and scimitar. Plus wrestling, boxing, and other forms of combat.
>Why do they wear the armor style that they do?
while deciding to reinvent himself, he took the basis of his training as a stepping stone for his image. He took a half imagined look modeled off his tutor and some art he saw in some foreign novels.
He made the outfit himself.
>>47710916
>Does your OC have/want children?
He has no children that he knows of, but it's conceivable that he has a bastard or two. The idea does sometimes trouble him, on the rare occasions that he's thoughtful. He does want children, but has no clear plans.
>What was your OCs first fling like?
His first serious relationship was with an older Imperial noblewoman in Nuln who he was infatuated with. Unfortunately she was rather taken with him as well, and became intolerably controlling. Antonio escaped and admitted the affair to her husband, who was quite angry...because he already knew, and Antonio's "secret" tryst actually gave him time away from his annoying wife.
>Did your OC train in combat, or learn it some other way?
Antonio was trained in combat at a military academy (which he was expelled from) and at an Estalian dueling school (which he got bored and left). The rest of his combat prowess has been through practical experience.
>Why do they wear the armor style that they do?
Estalian diestros rarely wear armor at all, so it took some hard knocks for Antonio to concede to wearing anything heavier than well-cut fabrics. Today he dons leathers and a breastplate, which give protection but allow for free movement. He still won't deign to set aside his cavalier's hat for a more practical helmet.
>>47710992
Dude I wanna play in your game so bad I love when you're here.

When your OC was growing up, did theydo their chores? What were they and did they contribute to your character?
>>47711165
>When your OC was growing up, did they do their chores? What were they and did they contribute to your character?
>>47710999
>>47710916
Antonio is technically the son of a nobleman, so 'chores' were the purview of maids and manservants. His father was strict on the matter of his studies, and a young Antonio frequently found new and creative ways to shirk, often encouraging Esteban to do likewise (and generally failing).
In the academy, Antonio would often perform assigned chores in ways that were deliberately a misinterpretation of what the instructors wanted, resulting in additional chores but a good laugh. When punishments became a group affair for Antonio's monkeyshines, he kicked the habit of shirking.

Reposting on a proper goddamn computer.
Name: Coram of House Agather.
•Role(s): wizard slayer by circumstance, templar by trade, healer by choice, lord protector of a small kingdom due to love.
•Goals: Toss all of this goddamn clusterfuck and retire somewhere quiet, as unlikely as that is. Failing that whip the realm into shape, and bring back the woman that died for him. Curing the goddamn vampirism would help.
•Traits: Generous, hospitable and friendly to strangers and allies, sharp-tongued and grumpy at friends, lethally disappointed in enemies.
• Flaws: Perpetually disappointed at himself and the world, can't handle people outside of a military or official settings all that well, can't make heads or tails of his byzantine hodgepodge of a religion despite being an ordained templar. A spiteful, easily provoked, and violent serial duelist. Showoff when permitted. Dislikes indirect solutions, even if they're demonstrably more effective.
• Allies:The party, by now more than a dozen adventurers, mercenaries, thieves, and reavers recently turned respectable. The family, excluding the two surviving brothers. A huge panoply of unsavoury contacts overseas. A handful of mercenary captains from the bad old days.
• Enemies: the entire cult of Dagon. The sea and everything in it. Meddling clerics, particularly of Mitra, that romance novelist of a god. A long list of cultists, warlocks, and sorcerers. Dad. Two brothers.
• Other Relations: He's very fond of (to the point of infatuation) of his confessor/lie detector/magistrate/swiss army cleric, as well as his fencing master. Wife, former party thief and assassin, now stolen away due to sorcery.
• Physical Description: Shaven-headed, tattooed brute with the poise and grace of a brick shithouse. Recently suffering from cosmetic defects typical of his new state of being: bits of missing skin and curved fangs. Thankfully, his sect is big on masks.

>Does your OC have/want children?
Nope.

Gruelingly trained for blood sport

>Name:
Georgiana "Georgie" Presch
>Role:
Team mom and cheerleader, party face
>Goals:
Do right by her dad, who passed away from injuries sustained saving Georgie, her sister, and her mother from a housefire.Fire resistance doesn't save you from smoke inhalation!
Her father had been a local hero, known for his dedication to the church and pushing back a horde of fiends that had tried to take the town. She carries his hammer and conviction in memory of him.
>Traits:
Charming, sweet, and kind-hearted. Lives to see the world and be loved. Adorkable!
>Flaws:
Forgetful, sometimes needs to be reminded to send letters home and let her family know she is out there and kicking ass.
>Other Relations:
Georgie's twin sister, Sarialle
Her mother, Chianna
Georgie sends money given to her from rewards to her family back home to help pay for their boarding while the house is rebuilt.
>>47710705
1. Yes!
2. Romantic, yet forgettable.
3. Her dad taught her basic self-defense, she's had to make a bit up along the way.
4. It's practical but still stylish.
>>47711236
>>47711165
>When your OC was growing up, did they do their chores? What were they and did they contribute to your character?
Yes, he was send to a military order at a young age to wait out a feud his family was involved in at the time. The novitiate involved doing all the things that novices and recruits do in those kinds of organizations: cleaning, kitchen duty, armour and weapon maintenance, squiring for knights, and so on. After that it was a tour of duty in the militia, and the same things again as he learned his military skills.
As a result he's a grunt's grunt who happens to wear the plate of a knight rather than the typical noble twit, and he generally thinks of the 'western' knight (as in 'typical of the lands to the west of his homeland') with disdain.
>>47710705
>Does your OC have/want children?
No and yes, though they'd be half-elven under the circumstances, which makes him mildly uneasy.
>What was your OCs first fling like?
Puppy love between a military order initiate and a priestess at the barracks chapel. Has had a thing for nuns and priestesses ever since.
>Did your OC train in combat, or learn it some other way?
In two styles: the typical knightly arts of battle and joust in his order, and a more brutish, quicker street style of fencing for self defense and the duel from a private instructor. He's still friends with that instructor.
>Why do they wear the armor style that they do?
Because that's the type of armour a knight of his order wears into battle. He's particualry fond of the traditional faceplate, and commissioned an exaggerated, sneering demoniac variant for himself. It's better to run the enemy off the field with the first charge than to have to kill them in pitched battle, and an assault by what appears to be demons made of iron is a good psychological tool. He uses smoke, alchemical grenades, and firearms (which are uncommon in the setting) to enhance the effect.
>>47711417
top fucking image use lol
>>47710992
Thought you guys might be interested in Rashad's Sheet.
I've basically statted him as an Aldori Swordlord, with crane Style to bolster his defense. He'll actually be nearly untouchable once he hits level 11.
>>47710705
>Does your OC have/want children?
Back while acting as a priestess for the cult of Shub-Niggurath Lo had three children with various cult members. She left them behind when she took her oath as a paladiness but still writes to them now and then.
>What was your OCs first fling like?
Lo's first relationship was with the father of her first child, the high priest of the cult. Relationships within her coven were fairly casual and open, not all too different from close friendships. The high priest doesn't particularly approve of Lo's views on the Black Goat and they have not been in contact.
>Did your OC train in combat, or learn it some other way?
Studying to be a warrior of the cult was how Lo began training in combat. However after she struck out on her own she honed her abilities as a paladin through practice and adventure.
>Why do they wear the armor style that they do?
The followers of Shub-Niggurath have similar practices for armor as many druids, Lo's armor is made of leather and hide, no metal materials aside from her weaponry. It's decorated in the holy stylings of the followers of Shub-Niggurath, and is pretty much a more protective and less revealing modification on the robes worn by priestesses.
>>47710705
>Does your OC have/want children?
Yeah, he has a daughter, Cordelia, she's six months old. He didn't want children for a while, because he had no intention to stop adventuring, although his wife has since convinced him otherwise.
>What was your OCs first doing like?
Short and fast with a nymph. He didn't know it was a fling, though.
>Did your OC train in combat, or learn it some other way?
No, he was training to be a healer at the local church. He's still awful with a weapon, and uses his spear as a walking stick more often.
>Why do they wear the style of armor they do?
He goes armorless for two reasons. One, flight is more difficult in heavy armors, so he keeps a low equip load. Second, he has a vow of poverty, and has forsaken most material wealth. He needs no armor when he is defended by his faith.
>>47710659
• Name: Axel Highblaze
• Role(s): Firstborn of the House Highblaze, the Dragon, Disgraced Exile, Lancer, Paladin of Bahamut
• Goals: To return to Sossal, kill his traitorous half-uncle and cousin, and reunite with his betrothed.
• Traits: Honorable, brave, and loyal to a fault.
• Flaws: Lecherous, has an extremely short temper, especially when someone violates Sossal's taboos, of which nobody knows. Also doesn't seem to understand what is personal space.
• Allies: His retinue of Knights and Squires sworn to House Highblaze. Also, other Paladins of Bahamut.
• Enemies: His half-uncle, who orchestrated the death of Axel's father and accused Axel of cowardice in face of the enemy and desertion. His cousin and former best friend helped corroborate the charges.
• Other Relations: Axel's mother and twin sisters are still back in Sossal. His mother secluded herself after the twin shock of having her husband dead and her son charged and exiled for the crime. His sisters, Eva and Maya, are the strongest mages Sossal seen in centuries and are therefore prevented from leaving their studies to look for their brother.
• Physical Description: Well-built, tall, a long braid in platinum white with shaved sides, gray-blue eyes. Appears mostly silent but that's only because he still doesn't grasp Commons well enough for an articulate conversation
>Name:
Pietro Lorath
>Roles:
Privateer captain, musician, duelist.
>Goals:
Fame, fortune, and an undying legacy.
>Traits:
Charming, generally open to new things, non-judgmental, sharp wit, good swordsman & bard.
>Flaws:
Selfish, manipulative, thrill-seeking, and sometimes short-sighted, alcoholic.
>Other Relations
A whorehouse where he spent most of his childhood.
His crew; First mate "Jumbo" Zonzaro
His father, a House Lyrandar member, who is partly responsible for Pietro's station as a way of keeping him quiet.
>Does your OC have/want children.
He wants to have a child across every nation, his name spread across the world. This is of course a childish and irresponsible notion.
>What was your OC's first fling like?
Drunken and clumsy, and maybe a little patronizing.
>Did your OC train in combat or learn it some other way?
He received rudimentary training to serve on a ship, and received better training after accumulating some wealth of his own to find a teacher.
>Why does your OC wear the armor they do?
Half for practical reasons (hides the wine stains), half because it's ostentatious as hell.
>>47712765

>>47712715
>Does your OC have/want children?
Sossal nobility emphasize the importance of bloodlines. He knows as part of his duties as the Firstborn of the House, he needs an heir as soon as possible in order to prevent his House from dying out or folded into other Houses.
>What was your OCs first doing like?
With his sisters' governess. He spent most of his childhood among his household knights and soldiers, who were more like rowdy uncles and willing to teach him on being a man.
>Did your OC train in combat, or learn it some other way?
As one of the Knight Houses of Sossal, House Highblaze has held the role of Grand Marshall of Sossal since the founding of Sossal. From age 8, Axel has been schooled in the Art of War and combat. Proficient from longswords, to polearms and warhammers, Axel prefers to wield the Glaive in most situations, switching over to his longsword in tight spaces.
>Why do they wear the style of armor they do?
His armor is Dragonscaled Plate Armor, relics from an age when Sossals were warrior-servants for the Dragon-Lords. Only the Drakenguard and sons of House Highblaze have access of this armor. Of course, being exiled, Axel's personal armor was confiscated and placed into his family's armory, awaiting it's owner's return.
>>47710659
Name: Rodrick Durand
Role(s): First man into battle, last man out of battle, group dad, foxy grandpa
Goals: To die a warrior's death a thousand times in order to finally rest eternally
Traits: Overly fatherly and protective of his teammates, has a pet kitten that he carries around with him that he's nursed back to health. He named the kitten "Melina" after his daughter, who he had to watch grow old and die.
Flaws: His casualness about death causes him to not think before he acts at times, tends to be overprotective of the people he calls his teammates
Allies: Melina the Kitten
Enemies: Witches. He doesn't trust 'em. Or anyone else who fiddles with dark magic for that matter.
Other Relations: Many friends he's made over the centuries who he's seen die
Physical Description: A gaunt pale face with an eye patch and a scarf to cover the lower half with a chaimail hood. In towns he wears a full helmet and tells anyone who asks about his pale skin that it's just a skin condition.
Rodrick was a soldier of an ancient civilization who abandoned the battlefield in a war that ultimately caused the destruction of his entire kingdom. While on the run, a powerful witch loyal to the king of their country caught him and damned him for his cowardice, telling him he should have died with honor defending his kingdom then being a worm who lives another day. The witch placed a terrible curse on Rodrick that day, a curse of undeath. Rodrick was doomed to never rest until he would achieve a warrior's death. Not just his own though, but for every man who died on the battlefield that day protecting their nation and ruler. He must die a thousand warrior's deaths before he may know peace, and so far he's only up to 417
Is this primarily for fantasy characters? Trying to get more structure for my /qst/ character I'm trying to create.
>>47714165
I'd say in general quest thread character should belong in quest threads.These are all characters made for roleplaying, as in a system, sure some of them might not found a group but are made and discussed here to improve before actually playing them.
Oh and don't mind my beyond retarded capability to write any language that comes naturally to someone who sucks cock everyday.
My point is, keep /qst/ in /qst/. But if you are talking of other stuff than fantasy characters for in roleplaying use, I'd love to see more shadowrun characters or anything beyond dnd/pathfinder fantasy!
>>47714165
It's not fantasy only at all. We've had Shadowrun, Cyberpunk, Modern, World of Darkness, and everything in between. So long as it is an OC and you put thought into it/want to improve the concept it fits the threads goal.

Name: Diederick “Pilgrim Wander” Khonrovich Wanderwaste
•Role(s): Peasant by birth, Crusader by duty, Pilgrim by excommunication. And the best damn tank I’ve ever rolled up.
•Goals: Since one healed his mother when he was a child, he has aspired to being a paladin eventually taking him down the path of a crusader.
•Traits: superstitious, zealous, bold, resolute in the face of danger. And a level 10 Crusader
• Flaws: he doesn’t actually know what it takes to be a paladin, and will never achieve his goal. He is blindingly faithful to the point where he is close minded and racist against monstrous races. He cannot swim and has a fear of water deeper than a foot. He’s also a manlet.
• Allies: our adventuring party of which only one other person has drawn up characters so far… so uh an unnamed wizard of dubious origins and two others.
• Enemies: he was excommunicated by the church of northern orthodoxy after he attempted to rise above his station in the fall of the crusade. While he is still loyal to them he is a damn dirty peasant in their eyes who has stolen items from the late lord commander. He despise all orcs as the crusade was against and destroyed by a horde of them. and during our upcoming campaign legions of undead and their dark master.
• Other Relations: his mother and numerous siblings live with his aunt and uncle on a peasant wheat farm in his homeland to the north. Like everyone they live in squalor. He carries a vial of salt with him taken from the salt mine his father died in. and he has a huge crush on the paladin who saved his mother despite the fact he never saw her again.
• Physical Description: 5’7” of pretty solid muscle, thanks to his encounter with the paladin he has had remarkable good health his entire 19 years. His hair, thin beard and eyes are brown. He speaks in a vaguely eastern European accent.
>Sue score

>>47716583
>Does your OC have/want children?
Pilgrim Wander grew up in a family of twenty plus people, if he finds a wife they would be swamped with children.
>What was your OCs first fling like?
Does dreaming about a woman you’ve met once for the next eleven years of your life count as a fling? Well he’s spent the rest of his life trying to follow her example and has traveled south to find her.
>Did your OC train in combat, or learn it some other way?
He received training in the Pelor’s Militant Militia of the People, two years before he joined the 4th Crusade of Northern Orthodoxy where he saw his first taste of true combat.
>Why do they wear the armor style that they do?
When the Crusade was annihilated by the Orcs, Pilgrim Wander took up the arms and armor of the slain Lord Commander to rally the remaining troops resulting ultimately in the survivors repelling the orcs, as the cost of his excommunication by the church of Northern Orthodoxy and his Pilgrimage south. He refuses to return the Commander’s armor, sash, shield, and signet ring and claims that as long as he lives the crusade continues.
>>47716583
>cannot swim & is afraid of water
I love this little quirk. Honestly that's a rational fear for someone in 60+ lbs of armor.
Lads, I need a motivation to leave your home and go out on adventure.
I'm keeping it vague because I am in a massive brainfart, and could be swayed by something as simple as "he's vying for the love of a lady."He is either going to be a majestically maned lion bro or a tough badass woof-man. I know you guys get a kick out of non-human husbandos, so now's your chance to help me build something.

• Name: Jeremiah “Jerry” Tiller, the Patchwork Paladin.
• Role(s): The Party tank, Healer and Smiter of Evil.
• Goals: Kill the dudes trying to unseal the bigass world-ending demon into the world. Said people killed one of his older sisters, the first to try and stop them. She failed in her quest and was slain.
• Traits: Friendly, Brave, Loyal, and Kind.
• Flaws: Jerry isn’t the brightest kid. And he gets seasick, airsick, is afraid of giant spiders, and knows absolutely nothing outside his farming village. He was also bullied, and is the youngest, so he tends to shy away from confrontation, especially party confrontation.
• Allies: His True Companions Party. A disturbed undine Druid, An angry Oni sorcerer, an apathetic Oni summoner, and the snarky, sarcastic Kineticist from Not!Austrailia. All of them are women. He thought he was through being bossed around.
• Enemies: These assholes trying to destroy the world. And the butcher’s boy. That guy is an asshole.
• Other Relations: His family. Dad fought in the war, mom is the town cleric. And he has 8 older sisters and 2 older brothers. All of whom were more accomplished than he before this shitshow started off. Also his village is proud of him, commanding the powers of the Goddess of protection like that, and helping to save the town when the normal heroes were away.
• Physical Description: Tall, and well muscled from a lifetime of farm work. Blonde hair, blue eyes, good looking in that farm boy way. He wears his dad’s old armour, and uses his old sword and shield. His mom knitted him his tabard, and one of his sisters painted the symbol of the Goddess of protection on his shield. Has patches all over his clothes from general clumsiness, and getting the shit kicked out of him on a regular basis.

Kaiger learned the basics of self-defense(how to throw a proper punch) from his mother,He learned how to wield weapons when elders took him on hunts but he learned to harness his strength and rage from an Ogrillon girl that he would hunt with.
>Why do they wear the armor style that they do?
He originally only wore plain clothes because he thought armor would slow him down. After an encounter with some zombies and a near death experience, the Dragon Bard told him that he needs to invest in armor because Kaiger's not as tough as he thinks he is. So he started wearing and chainmail. One dead dragon later, he has dragon scale armor.

Jasper would like to have children so carry his lineage into the future. His first fling was with a nice girl from the village he grew up in. Jasper was originally self taught but he and his brothers scientific experiments caught the attention of an order of warrior scholars who trained him from adolescence. He wears a suit of red plate mail of his own design that has been altered to allow for more streamlined movement.

As a child his chores were to gather bait for his father to fish and help his mom to cook

Keth helped around the shop when he was younger, but started volunteering at the church while he was very young. Volunteering at the church instilled a sense of responsibility and a care for others.
Which OCs would make the most interesting party?

>Goals
To remain on the forefront of knowledge, exploration, and change. Luvos is in the process of writing a series of encyclopedias of planar knowledge. To inspire awe and terror in his wizarding peers.

Luvos has little respect for conventions. He enjoys the fleeting nature of comprehension and knowledge and more enjoys the hunt for knowledge itself.
>Flaws
In addition to having little respect for tradition, Luvos is known to overlook most moral stipulations of his comrades. He has picked up the habit of introducing himself in fancier and fancier nonsensical titles. He believes he is the smartest person in any room but that everyone seems to know something he doesn't.

Describe the routine of a normal day for your character. How does he/she feel when this routine is disrupted?
>>47720757
Get up, put in some fencing practice, wash, get dressed, curse at having to wear anything other than field clothes, blame elves, go through the castle kitchen on the way to the war room, learn what the elves and dwarves and kobolds and men fucked up today, fix it, pine for simpler days.

Wake up, study spells that will see some use later, feed the stool, banish any demons still lingering in the study, brew tea, catch up on current events in scrying orb, walk the stool through the library, spend the rest of the morning gathering ingredients for the different summoning rituals he'll perform that day, have lunch, spend the afternoon to evening interviewing demons, elementals, and angels and taking notes, try to pound out a chapter of one encyclopedia, spend the whole night making succubi whisper into his ears instead, get nothing done, curse his peers for driving him away, fall asleep at desk

Wakes up, makes sure that the warlock didn't burn down the camp while he was smoking,bathe if possible, goes hunting with his hellhound for breakfeast,have one of the party members cook his food, and go over the current plan the party has. The only part of the routine that he feels is necessary is bathing and going over what the party's doing. Someone will be bound to forget something important if they don't.

The Vest of the Archmagi and robes of the Mad Archmage provide some of the best protection in the land, along with the utmost utilities. Also they look pretty cool.
>>47721164
Sick character, would totally try to turn into an apprentice but ultimately get wrecked by in a poetic fashion.
What game is this character for?
>>47721195
D&D 3.5 we started at level 1 and have just made it to level 19. I also party with >>47712676.
>>47721248
That's pretty righteous, dude. I imagine there's a lot of time for a character to develop a voice with a campaign that long.
>>47721271
Despite having the power to alter the cosmos itself. My wizard still sound a young and pathetic as the day he started.
>>47721310
All wizards should be at least a bit pathetic it's part of the appeal.
How do I make character names that don't sound totally stupid, and how do I make flawed but believeable characters that aren't copies of existing characters?
>>47721325
Names are tough, things that sound dumb for some people sound cool to others.
>>47721325
For characters, think of something you want to play and then just think of how did he become the way he is. This helps me alot for fleshing my characters: http://www.miniworld.com/adnd/100ThingsAboutUrPCBackGround.html
>>47721322
He just sound pathetic...and has the social back bone of a chocolate elcair. Ok so hes a bit pathetic.
>>47721325
Imagine how their native language sounds like. Find a list of names from a similar rl one. Pick a name, alter it a bit, play the damn game.
>>47721358
Well thats looks very helpful.
>>47721364
Well at least he can rest easy knowing he has the powers of a god.
>>47721393
That's hardly helped him, he has literally died more times then the entire party combined. Almost all of them are from failed fort savesm
>>47721358
As characters outlines go, how is one who has a constant attraction to children that he's horrified by and constantly practices at fighting and trying to become the best (whatever class I make him) to distract himself from his inner urges?
I am new at this and has never done tg rpgs before so the following character is a character i want to make as my first. Please r8
Name: Sir Robert Bridge
Role: Fighter, I guess. Someone who wears heavy-ish armor with a sword and shield
Goal: To realize his childhood dream to become an adventurer
Traits: Robert is a middle aged man with plenty of experiences during his time as a cop. Does what he thinks is right, but in an old fashioned sort of way, willing to do what is necessary. From his time as a cop, Robert distrusts bureaucracy and red tape, and criminal activity. Has very light tan, dark hair with streaks of gray, and clean shaven but with rough stubbles.
Robert spent his childhood as an impoverished street urchin in an orphanage. At the age of 17, a year after his best friend Zaid left the city out of wanderlust and a desire from freedom against poverty, war broke out. Robert joined the military, and served 5 years. During that time, by circumstance he was able to rescue the king's son life from a burning bridge. As a reward, the prince knighted him and granted a very small handful of acres of land outside the city he lived in. At the age of 23, shortly after the war, Robert joined the City Guard and was a cop a little over 20 years, the last four of those years as the Captain of the Guard. He spent some months in contemplation after his retirement, and because of his regret for never following Zaid, Robert decided to become an adventurer. At the age of 45, it has been almost a year since he left, doing mostly caravan mercenary work and running errands.
Around the time he joined the Guard, Robert got married, and from that marriage were three children, Samuel(who manages the family inn after Robert left and is engaged to one of the daughters to the lord of the city), Elizabeth(currently 19 apprenticed to a wizard in a tower at 17), and Axelrod(currently 15 became a squire to a knight errant at 14). Robert regularly exchanges letters with his family.
>>47721415
Well you don't become a master of the arcane without dying a few times.
>>47721428
I'd go on adventures with him, anon
>>47721428
I second this guys notion >>47721438. Your character sound very throughout better rush job I did for my characters back story.
>>47721429
True very true. But despite his death toll Zaniel is my favorite character to play hands down. Even if I'm the only lawful player of chaotic fucks.
>>47721493
Better then the rush job.
>>47721493
Well my wizard is technically chaotic evil so I can't complain in that department.
>>47721503
Aren't most? God hood is a hell of a drug.
>>47721534
Godhood, a decade of isolation in a giant library, and countless hours spent consorting with demons doesn't do the soul any favors. That's okay though because that soul is going in a phylactery eventually anyways.
>>47721556
A yes immortality a classic goal for wizards everywhere. Funny enough my character actually started out with eternal life.
Im playing a arcane verson of the Elan race. All because my DM didn't want me to play a Faerûn race.
>>47721425
Well?
>>47721425
I would make sure the DM is cool with that concept first since it border lines magical realm and can come off as creepy.
>>47721600
Its good motivation at least. Defiantly a great source of conflict if your group is up for it. Just make sure every is comfortable with it
>>47721593
I used to not like playing really magic based characters but I've had a blast with Luvos.
>>47721425
So he's like fighting against his inner pedo demons? Could make for a neat character definitely not something you see often.
>Name:
Kolskeg “Chainer” Visothirth
>Role(s):
Monster Hunter/Mercenary, Tracker, Survivalist
>Goals:
-To keep his ex-slave Tiefling SO (Emara’lua “Burden” Zosega) safe from racist government troopers who hate “outer” races.
-Providing income and sustenance for a settlement called Sanctuary, which belongs to an Order of organised Hunters of a TN nature/life/repose deity called Araloro
-To get paid by taking on contracts for hunting monsters.
>Traits:
Caring, fierce, brave, considerate, and dutiful.
>Flaws:
Narrow-Focused, Overly Attached (Heavily due to Emara’lua and Sanctuary), Brooding and has had swings of depression.
>Allies:
The Residents of Sanctuary, Stalkers of Aralaro (Order of Hunters), Leshys that were grown inside of Sanctuary, Emara’lua and his current party.
>Enemies:
Fagerske Empire, Monsters (?)
>Other Relations:
Multiple Townspeople and other people who had put marks on monsters to be hunted.
Jorrorlum “Uncle” Duskbraid – The head of Sanctuary, and mentor to all hunters that trained there, a Father figure to Chainer.
Scariosa, a young female Dryad that was brought to Sanctuary after her swamp was overrun by the Fagerske Empires soldiers
>Physical Description:
mid 20’s, Dark Blonde Hair, Blue Eyes, roughly shaven, “Bear” Build and 6’3
Pic provided is the one I use on his character sheet.
Rate-my-Sue.
>>47722599
>OC Development Questions:
>Does your OC have/want children?
I imagine Chainer would want children once things with Fagerske had been resolved. He and Emara’lua have only had slept together a few times on the chances they could, I’m pretty sure they would have more than a handful of children though. Emara’lua is a very motherlike figure as well, so I think it would only make sense. Not too sure how that would work though, Human/Tiefling children that is.
>What was your OCs first fling like?
Was a virgin until he met Emara’lua (celibate as fuck) as he became closer with her, I wouldn’t describe it as fireworks or wild-lust desires, but rather awkward virgin lovers trying something for the first time.
>Did your OC train in combat, or learn it some other way?
Yes, trained since he was about 12 under the guidance of Uncle, preferred to use chain based weaponry (hence the name “Chainer”) and became quite fond of using a butcher’s hook-esque weapon whilst on hunts.
>Why do they wear the armor style that they do?
A mix between leather with some reinforcement to be as light as possible while still being reasonably armored, being scratched by a lion is one thing, but being mauled by a Ghawwas is a completely different story. It’s better for your health to be quicker than what you’re hunting, than to be its prey.
>>47710659
Name: Danielle Hayn
Role: Thrall master and illusionist
Goals: Danielle was raised from death by an as-of-yet unknown force that left her with instructions describing how to locate her young great-great-grand-daughter who had been taken by a slave trade ring.
Danielle has set out to find and rescue her family, as well as shut down the slavers.
Traits: Her body is in a state of half-decay, but as long as she continually uses some of the power she was imbued with by her benefactor, she can hide this grotesque appearance.
She's quick to sass-mouth, and loves to form complicated plans unnecessarily that show off her necromantic prowess.
Flaws: Mostly the last half of the prior answer. Additionally, she is a bit "out of time", having died a few generations ago and having to get used to new things she was largely unfamiliar with in life.
>>47723127
Why is my dick hard all of a sudden?
>>47723462
An unintentional side effect, anon.
>>47723462
Rigor Mortis, my friend. All the ladies love a good stiff, don't you know.
>>47723462
>>47723531
Yes, but what do you guys think of the character, please?
>>47714027
Very cool, I love his curse.Will he ever findlove?
>>47714027
alt costume
>>47723717
His pursuit of an honorable death leaves him with very little time to deal with matters of love.He does get very lonely sometimes, though.
>>47723788
Neat.
>Name:
Charna of Pyne / 'Thrice-Hanged'
>Role:
Shieldmaiden; Damage, Scouting, Intimidation, Smacktalk.
>Goals:
Primarily concerned with immediate rewards; coin, drink, comfort, whoring. When the coin runs dry she simply gets more. She has no long term plans or desires, at least none that she makes any real commitment toward.
>Traits:
Charna is swift witted and quick on her feet. She rarely hesitates, and does not falter once she has decided upon of course of action. She is an accomplished fighter, scout and duellist.
>Flaws:
Charna is vain, selfish and entirely motivated by self interest. She is ruthless, with little regard for the softer concepts of honour or mercy unless it suits her. Whilst she takes no particular pleasure in killing, she does not hesitate to do so. Any perceived or imagined wrong against her is often pursued with ruthless and singular intent, with little thought to the consequences or circumstances.
>Allies:
Whilst Charna's loyalities are forever in question, she appreciates those who have shown themselves to be consistently 'decent' in their dealing with her, which is likely as close to trust as she will ever feel.
>Enemies:
Various grudges aside, Charna does harbour an innate dislike for folk from Sedor, a settlement with whom Pyne have been feuding for years.
>Other Relations:
Her parents, perhaps a sibling or two. Not that she particularly cares.
>Physical Description:
Vaguely pretty, rather tall, boyish frame. Very particular about her hair.
>>47723846
>Thrice-Hanged
And you're not going to tell us the story?
>>47723815
He needs an immortal waifu.
>>47723815
+1 for tactical feline pouch
>tfw no one comments on your OC
Oh well.
>>47723908
Which one is it? I only just got here and was thumbing through the thread.
>>47720757
Make sure all his stuff is where he keeps it, simple clean-up unless awesome facilities are provided, all the stretchesit's an elf's job to be limber,get a food, walk in a direction until he either hits a wall, he comes up with an idea, or the party wants to do something.
>>47721428
I like this character, but is his motivation to be an adventurer, orfind Zaid and have the childhood friend become a party contact to bro out with/rival for adventuring bragging rights?
>>47723930
>>47722599Thanks :3
>>47722599
He seems like a cool dude, I get a very "The Revenant" vibe though. Movie version, not irl version.
>>47723846
>Does your OC have/want children?
The thought likely hasn't even crossed her mind, she would likely shudder at the idea.
>What was your OCs first fling like?
A few fumbling hours in a cozy hay loft with the pedlar's daughter. Shit was cash money.
>Did your OC train in combat, or learn it some other way?
She trained with her settlement, as raiding and skirmishing against their neighbours is part of their culture. Since leaving, she has been many things; sellsword, bodyguard, enforcer, thief, assassin.
>Why do they wear the armour style that they do?
Whilst her armour is reasonably practical, a plated jack, some chain beneath leather, her vanity demands some level of decoration. Curiously, she is actually one of the only folk in her party who wears a helmet into combat.
>>47723857
At one point in our campaign, things went very sideways. Charna slew a lower noble in a duel over literally spilled milk. Due to her commoner status the law perceived it as murder. I believe the DMs intent was to teach me a lesson.
Since the DM wasn't too keen on having her die after a series of awful diplomacy roles, he let me roll -against- the hanging, with increasing difficulty after each attempt. After the third attempt to execute her, and my third save, the Alderman decreed that the gods had favoured her and she was found innocent, as was the local custom.
Her voice was never the same, and she had a gnarly rope burn scar, but it just made her cockier than ever.
>>47724029
That's badass, and I love the lasting effect of the incident.
>>47723127
I like her, and not because she's a QT.

What was your OCs first fling like?
First meaningful was with a captive princess and that ended horribly. As she tricked him into escaping with her and then let him suffer the wrath of the charges of Kidnapper, Traitor, Murderer, and Rapist. Which are branded to his head along with the recent self-addition of HERETIC.
Did your OC train in combat, or learn it some other way?
Yes, a noble and then more as a mercenary.
Why do they wear the armor style that they do?
The style of his nation with a few modifications to fit climate. A kettle helm with a full suit of plate up till his neck.
Marysue Score: -5, AW SNAP

Isn't that bad? I thought the green zone was like 6-16
>>47724521
Also what is the discord?
I really want to run this character.
So want to be the strange man amongst strange people.
>>47724590
We don't run games in Discord, just more in-depth characterization, building, and circle-jerking.
>>47724553
Not really, the test is skewed toward MCs of fiction rather than rpg characters. Even those questions that directly pertain to rpgs have a freeform bent to them.
• Name: Paisa Demonslayer
• Role(s): Paladin/Demon Hunter/Bard
• Goals: Hunting demons and singing about his victories in every tavern he could find
• Traits: Ambidextrous, religious, brave, fearless

• Allies: Su Conjunto (low ranked demon hunters), Paisita (veteran old demon hunter, tired of fighting but wise and plays the accordion)
• Enemies: every demon in existence

>Make neat character idea
>Basically a neurotic genderbent fighter trying to get his dick back
>Can't get into any games on Roll20
Am I just bad at writing or should I scrap the character idea?
>>47725078
Post the deets and we'll be the judge of that.
>>47725078
I can see why people wouldn't take this seriously.
>neurotic
Neurosis is toughy to deal with because it basically means you can act out of character and get away with it quite easily.
>genderbent
You can have a character that's transgender/sexual/whatever that doesn't have the "lol he's a ladyboy" stigma attached to it if you give it good enough reasoning. Look at "Alesha, Who Smiles at Death" from mtg and his/her lore as a reference.
>trying to get his dick back
I don't need to tell you why this won't fly.
I'd give it an 8/10 on the Mary-Sue scale though.

• Name: Celia/Caitlin Sidhe
• Role(s): Familiar, fortune teller, housepet, adventurer, spellcasting instructor (in that order)
• Goals: To find and serve a powerful wizard and pass on the lessons her old master had
• Traits: Friendly and light-hearted. Has good insight and intuition. Knowledgeable about teas.
• Flaws: Sort of flaky and forgetful. Lazy when not adventuring and prone to melancholy when it comes to her old master.
• Allies: The Black-river adventurer's guild, Alvex the Apprentice (friend, wizard)
• Enemies: Gnolls in general, necromancers, and anyone that tries to hide or otherwise destroy knowledge.
• Other Relations: Baensidhe the Archmage (former master), Gaelgnarl (legendary hero, and "uncle")
• Physical Description: Usually takes the form of a black cat with a white spot on the chest. This was also the form she had when she was a familiar to Baensidhe. After learning to shapeshift, she later took the form of a dusky-skinned mystic and traveled with a group of nomads. During combat, she mixes these two forms together, giving her mobility as well as casting.
• Backstory: After his sacrifice in order to save a legendary hero during his quest to stop a dread necromancer, she found herself alone in the world with no master. She traveled around, searching for him in vain. She couldn't bring him back since it'd involve the necromancy (counting holy resurrection) he'd died to stop. Now searching for a new master to work with.

I was going for a Cait Sith+Gypsy thing originally
>>47723573
Personally? She strikes me very much as an ancestral spirit or "revenant" type character that rises from the grave to exact justice and revenge on those who wrong her bloodline. She's not a particularly grim character, which is odd for the character archetype but can make sense if you made her from a culture that supports more benign undead.
If she doesn't crumble into dust the day after getting her family to safety and kills the slavers, I'd be deeply disappointed.
>>47725592
The CoC comparison came about due to her character art, which is of an extremely voluptuous anthro cat-girl that isn't afraid to show off some skin. Sure, in and of itself that isn't necessarily bad, but it's easy to trigger thoughts of porn when the cat really *is* fine, too.
>>47725620
That's the plan for a one-off short campaign, but depending on how I like playing her we'll see what happens.
>>47720859
Always been a fan of your Roman-style work. Great stuff.
>>47723127
More undead characters! I like the concept and I have to admit I am curious about the mysterious benefactor of her undeath.https://youtu.be/BvsMPOfblfg
>>47725664
Ah. Yeah hypfoo really nailed it. I mean curvy was the goal, since catfolk are usually portrayed a slender. Though big fat cat tats is fun to say.
>>47725697What happened is the Raven Queen is answering the desperate prayers of the descendant who is begging for rescue. RQ's answer is a blood relative imbued with powers of the grave, hence Danielle.
Though, once you get past the "everything can and will violate your asshole" part this is pretty neat.
>>47725287

great taste

>>47725989
Naw it's cool. I'm just writing a campaign setting where the bad guys have already won. Tentacle monsters 2strong4me.
>>47726009
If you want a setting where the evil aready won, just make sure you do better than CoC and actually finish the game
Made these two, back to make another. First come first serve for a character portrait.
>>47726406
Nevermind that request if you saw it, I want to let someone else try to get some art.
Is it alright to post any kind of character, or do they have to be player characters? I want to post the MC I have been working on for my personal setting, I've considered writing stories about the world, and have been working on this guy for a while now and want any kind of input people might have.
>>47726447
Post it, fool. Let's see them.
>>47726457
Nah, see >>47726444 please.
>>47723127
>out of time
that's such a fun mindset to play, have fun with it. marvel at new magics that have been created, weaponry, customs, everything.
>>47725911
Not as good asthe tongue.
>>47726471
Okay, keep in mind these stories, if they are done, take place in the past of the setting, during this characters journey to become a legendary hero in setting.
• Name: Dorland Arwile
• Role(s): Farmer, Hero of the Highfield Kingdom
• Goals: Protecting Highfield Kingdom from any threat, general protection of those in need and combating evil
• Traits: Dorland is headstrong and stubborn, and will rush into a situation if he believes it requires intervention He is a kind fellow as well, and will often ignore any attempts to pick a fight with him or insults to himself, but at the same time will jump in if he sees the same happening to someone else. He is however uneducated, due to his upbringing, he has little to no real schooling, and can barely read or write. He is a quick learner for practical skills though.
• Flaws: Being uneducated is his major flaw, and in any situation that would require a much more educated view or input, he is lost. His headstrong personality can often lead him into trouble, or throw him into a situation he hasn't considered all the options for. Though 'flaw' is subjective, due to his upbringing, and where he grew up, his perspective on other countries, other peoples, and even other races can sometimes cause problems.
• Allies: The Kingdom of Highfield, The Kingdom of Hashar (An eastern, desert kingdom) Multiple smaller groups and individuals (still hashing all that out)
• Enemies: (So far) Warlord Baska (Orc warlord), Draconis Ryke (Powerful necromancer) Vann Bruud (Blood thirsty knight) Dragons in general
• Other Relations: His family, a simple farming family on the very edge of the Highfield countryside
• Physical Description: 5'7", solid, muscular body from years of farm work and battle. Late 20s but looks slightly older from his experiences. Hazel hair, dark green eyes, freckles.
>>47726936
not him but did you make him generic on purpose?
His name is Aaron Hunter. His role is that of Vanguard. His goals in life is to exterminate all undead and necromancers from the world he lives in. He is loyal to a fault to those he cares about and has a difficult time letting others in. He has some difficulties with controlling his anger when it comes to the life of his loved ones, and he has taken in part of the thing he dedicates his life to hunting. His allies are those that remain of his guild, The Bloodhunters. And his main enemy is the necromancer that killed his beloved, and the undead beasts that he hunts. He is attempting to gain allies in the Ortana Defense force to raise money for his guild. His family and friends from his childhood are either dead or on a different continent after he had to run from his home city. He works from day to day and tries to keep from getting close to others so he won't feel the same pain when he looses someone as he did when he lost the love of his life,Yllphira.
>>47726936
A very brief summary of Dorland's past and events
>Dorland grew up on his family's farm, but desired to join the kingdoms army, so he ran away to enroll, but ended up discovering a growing Orc army, getting embroiled in facing them after he was captured, ended up defeating the leader, Baska, by a mix of sheer luck and his talent for throwing pitchforks (well spears in this situation). Continues traveling to enroll, once again becomes involved in a situation with bandits tormenting a local town, this is where he begins to lean away from being a soldier and becoming a protector instead. At some point he meets an alchemist who helps him build his equipment, which includes a suit of green armor, a spear tipped with green metal (both the armor and spear made from the same metal) and even producing a spear that can kill anything it pierces (using a unique material that was gifted to Dorland), a spear Dorland uses to kill a dragon for the first time in history. Eventually Dorland becomes well known in his kingdom and the king himself gives Dorland a quest, to reunite the broken kingdom, through this Dorland would become known across the land as the Emerald Knight.
Thats about all I got for him so far, in terms of major story bits. I do worry a bit because I did the Mary Sue test and it came out at 45, but that might be because a number of questions I answered were vague in that they could be either pointless traits, or major mary sue things. I dunno, I'm not very experienced as a writer.
>>47726984
I admit he is a bit generic, I hope to try and work on that, but his idea came about as just a regular human who becomes a legendary hero without being a prophesied hero, having a blood line of something fantastic or unique, or being a super talented fighter or the usual products of a legendary hero, just some farm kid who develops into a hero.
>>47723908
I know that feel anon
>>47725592
You should probably give the game a full playthrough when you have the alone time. It's a classic, despite its flaws and you will cum so hard your balls hurt.
• Name: Valaane Moongaze
• Role(s): Soothespeaker, Cabalist, Necromancer, and Party Face.
• Goals: A long undead life of excitement (coming after mortal years of constant illness). Also, to prove to the DM that undead aren't all evil.
• Traits: A little on the spoony side with her spiritual insights, but well-meaning for a dread necromancer. Enjoys romance novels.
• Flaws: Puts too much trust into people to do the right thing. A tad standoffish and alien. Easily gets preachy over people calling undead evil.
• Allies: Her myriad party, consisting of another undead wizard, a lizard wizard, a Mystran cleric pretending to be an old man, and a gnome.
• Enemies:A lot of NPCs because the DM is a faggot and I haven't actually raised any undead yet he's screaming evil every goddamned moment.
• Other Relations: Her parents in Djerad Thymar, who are gemcutters by trade. She is also a member of the Cabal that raised her.
• Physical Description: Thin as a rail, but somehow looks "healthier" than in life (likely due to magic). Dresses well, and seems, physically, to be around 16, and stands at about 5'1".
• Backstory: After living a long 70 elven years of illness, her parents paid to have her turned per rules of Necropolitans with the aid of a shady Cabal. While she would have likely been a sorceress if alive, the process warped her magicks to something more death oriented. Doesn't help she was always attracting spirits to begin with, what with her foot in the grave for many years.
>>47727383
Will do.stupid sexy cows...
The OC above,or below, your character must work together ? How well does that turn out ?
>>47727533
>>47710878 here and yeah, I could work with >>47710916 alright, provided he were a good listener.
>>47723127 would love to work with a fellow undead >>47723815, especially one of such vigor..!
>>47727533
For >>47727422, I'm not sure which of the two above to use due to the split posts, but...
>>47727042
>exterminate all undead and necromancers
That would either go horribly or hilariously depending on bluff/disguise nonsense.
>>47726936
Sounds like it would go smoothly enough, though she'd probably awkwardly fawn over him because she adores the rough-hewn working type.
>>47727533
>>47719540
Kaiger would probably want to be friends/adventure with >>47717942 since he seems like a fine lad and he can kinda get where Jerry's coming from.
>>47719796
I'm not sure how well Kaiger would work with Jasper but I'd imagine at the very least he'd respect his skills as a warrior.
>>47727625
That is all too true.
>>47725928
>>47710705
>Does your OC have/want children?
wants kids to keep the house alive
>What was your OCs first fling like?
short and sweet with his tutor's sister. they're still friends to this day. except she's a deamon host now.
>Did your OC train in combat, or learn it some other way?
his father taught him the sword and after he disgraced himself he learned to fire a weapon in the penal legions.
>Why do they wear the armor style that they do?
power armour because its scares his enemies and he can hang his family's banner on it.
>>47727533
I think >>47727042 would work well with >>47726936
Repostin'! I've never played a seaworthy character before, so any advice is welcome!
• Name: Yllastine
• Role(s): Buff Dispenser, Morale Maintenance
• Goals: She wants to recover her father's mastercraft lute that was fenced through the Thieves' Guild.
• Traits: Bubbly, attentive, and a giver. She enjoys nothing more than having an audience and entertaining, be it through song, dance, or action.
• Flaws: A bit too trusting, oftentimes will let her guard down (or not raise it at all) in an effort to be liked.
Sailed with the "Coralcutter". The sailors didn't want her aboard, but as a bard/rogue mix she was able to convince them that they had the outdated superstitions, and she had the current ones (which she made up on the spot most times)Really earned her place when they tasted her stew, which was hearty enough to bed their appetites, and spicy enough to get them through the harsh winds and cold.
>>47727533
Zaniel (>>47721164) if having to work with Siyakhir (>>47720874) would be amazed by the wonders of space starships and technology advancements.
But would quickly be annoyed by Siyakhir ego and would attempt to stay a quite as possible around him.
>>47727422
>>47710705
• Does your OC have/want children?
Actually a yes on wanting - though it's either die in childbirth as a mortal, or be undead and not have it. She does plan to spend some of her time possibly setting up an orphanage.
•What was your OCs first fling like?Hasn't happened.
•Did your OC train in combat, or learn it some other way?
After being raised, the cabal's constant use of skeletons lead her to work on learning the lucerne - a weapon to avoid close combat, but also deal some good damage with her newly gained strength.
•Why do they wear the armor style that they do?
She wears a mithril chain shirt under her blouse and a fair bit of leather armor alongside it, partially due to wanting to have fashion with her utility, and generally being unused to armor.
>>47727533
Never let>>47712715 hang out with >>47712765 without adult supervision. If both get drunk at the same time, half of the town would get wreck in the mayhem and the other half pregnant.
• Name: Sergeant Dornan
• Role(s): Administrating Camp Navarro
• Goals: Kill any and all raiders around, destroy all of the remaining Vaults
• Traits: Loud, Disciplinarian, Leader
• Flaws: Bad at recognizing strangers
• Allies: The Enclave
• Enemies: Everyone not the Enclave
• Other Relations: None
• Physical Description: 7' Power Armor hulk
>>47728136
I kinda want them to hangout without adult supervision.
>>47728280
He needs more depth. For example, what is his major malfunction?
>>47728451
He can't tell a soldier out of uniform from a random wanderer
One time he actually gave a priceless suit of power armor to a vault dweller
>>47728489
And he kept his job? How Sue.
>>47727533
>>47711236
>>47711417
"We're not mad, but she's disappointed and I'll be taking your sword until you stop being stupid with it."
>>47710992
End up in a fight, make up, drink half the town... wait, hold up. Half the booze in town. Yes. Then possibly go on a series of ludicrous adventures while exchanging fencing techniques.
Your OC must pick a person to marry in this thread? Who is it and for what reasons?
>>47722599
Was digging it until brooding. Still dig it, but does he practice his brooding in front of a mirror? How does he get his brood on?
>>47726406
Could I get a portrait for my character?
>>47725287
Big. Fat. Cat. Tats.
>>47726406
Can you do this guy? Note that his hair is white feathers.
>>47712676
>>47729060
>>47727422
Due to good potential for long-term (LONG term) partnership, the romance novels reminding him of someone he got killed over, and having a necromancer on hand being very, very handy under the circumstances. Also he could keep blaming elves for everything, which is an imporant thing to do.
>>47729347
Now I'm busy wondering who this is talking about her.
>>47729337
>>47729140
>guy offers drawings FOR FREE
>make it harder on him by literally not giving any detail on what you want your drawing to be other than another picture
are people in this thread retarded? like legit
>>47729759
That's a drawing of the actual character, and he just said portrait. So I mentioned the only detail that would really come into play.
>>47729820
a blurry picture of a middle schooler's anime character doesn't help explain the skin tone, eye color, or actual facial features of a character
>>47729337
As loath as I am to admit it, >>47729925 is right about skin tone and eye color. Note that his hair is white feathers. He has pale skin, pointed ears, and softer facial features. I've honestly never thought of his eye color, so blue?
>>47729759
Seeing as how all my posts have the same name as an character earlier in the thread I assumed that when I asked for a portrait of my character the kind artist would look at the corresponding character picture to do the portrait. Sorry if I was unclear. :(
>>47729925
"Middle schoolers anime character" seems a tad, well, cuntish, don't you think?
>>47730122
Sorry, I was out getting some medicine. I'm going to start on your portrait now until that other guy gets back and gives me a description. of his character.
>>47730139
Eye color, hair color, skin color, facial features, defining features. I'm going to just copy the original picture to a point if there's nothing given to me in terms of changes and I'm trying to improve artistically, not copy other pictures.
• Name: Rhyfe
• Role(s): Mercenary, Fixer, Witcher(esque)
• Goals: Support his family by making the most money possible
• Traits: Unloyal, Money-focused, Buyable, Unfunny, Straight Man, Cold Shell/Warm Heart, Basically Mike Ehrmantraut
• Flaws: See Traits
• Allies: Family, Hirers, Job Associates
• Enemies: Anyone he's paid to kill, anyone who he's betrayed
• Other Relations: Mother, Older Brother and Younger Sister
• Physical Description: 6'1" tanned man, short wild brown hair with a scraggly beard. Very muscular, but very hairy and not very pleasant to look at.
I know its pretty cliche, but giving the GM the chance to not only kidnap his family AND the chance for the BBEG to turn him against the party would be fucking amazing
Pic not representstive of actual character
>>47729584
>>47711236
Well, just as long as he doesn't have to wage another war because of that. Bloody elves.
>>47730122
>>47730210
What color are his robes? The top draping one and the one below it on the left shoulder.
>>47729347
Probably her >>47723846 because he likes his women strong.
>>47730355
The shaded are dark blue, the non shaded white. Thanks a ton.
>>47730210
I was hoping to get a portfolio of that character but a bit younger. He is supposed to be 17 and at the beginning of his time in the defense force. Could you draw him without the scruff, the scar above his eye a bit more prominent and looking like he hates the world? I would be very grateful.
Random Question:
Has your OC ever named an inanimate object such as a favorite weapon, shield, or vehicle?
>>47731842
Does it count if the object was just created and has no name beyond what kind of object it is, or do you mean something like, naming their favorite sword Delora?
>>47731911
Both work. Naming inventions/creations and such would count.
>>47730422
How's this?
>>47729132
Probably in a quiet secluded place, like a lakeside or somewhere with a mountainous view. He was never one for Libraries as he preferred practical challenges and learning from experience.
>>47723936
>find Zaid and have the childhood friend become a party contact to bro out with/rival for adventuring bragging rights?
I want the DM to choose what Zaid is on the most part and how we meet, but I want it to be a surprise to my character. But personally, I'd like for Zaid to bea foil, like an Evil or Chaotic rogue or crimelord.Someone with lots of experience and memories from being an adventurer but who's getting old, and is almost semi-retired (Zaid is two years older than Robert)
>>47731842
He named the sword he created Moon's Terror and views it as his baby
>>47732323
>>47723936
Oh and Robert hasn't seen or heard from Zaid since he left, which is part of why he regrets never joining him.
The character motivation is from a trope from some movies where you have some older father figure tell the mc to follow his dreams because he never did when he was young and has always regretted doing so, but at the end of the movie the older guy decides to follow his childhood dream after all. (prime example would be from the 2005 Robot movie).
Now the real problem I have is for whether or not Robert's wife would be still alive (Robert's wife was older then he was). I think in that case, Robert's wife should have died several months before he retired. But I also really like the idea of Robert's wife encouraging him to fulfill his dream, but I'm also conflicted about Robert leaving his wife behind. I can't tell what's better, Robert feeling guilty for leaving her even though she supports him or Robert feeling bad that his wife is dead but still wants to continue her memory because she always supported the idea of him doing what he always wanted to do.
I just don't know what would be better when Robert returns home during Samuel's wedding.
>>47731959
Then >>47726936 named the suit of armor his alchemist friend constructed for him Greenwall, due to it's dark emerald color, it becomes his iconic appearance and practically always wears it since it's really fucking good armor.
>>47731842
Arallios named his shortsword whatever-the-elven-word-for-trainee-is, given it was one of the weapons he trained with as an elfling. He gave it to a ranger-in-training since he thought dealing with a town half-filled with what was effectively zombie plague would be harder to fix than "party strolls around town, have the zombies bunch together to follow us, then drop all the fire on them". He hasn't returned to the town to reclaim it sincethe place now brings back less-than-pleasant memories.
>>47732323
>>47732504
>spoiler
That's an angle I could get behind. Would explain why he hadn't contacted him because getting him involved would be less-than-desirable. As far as your little wife dilemma, perhaps a middle-ground whereshe passes away after he leaves with her insistence, returning home to the news that she's passed away and feeling guilty at not being there for her in her last days.
>>47730272
Anyone have any feedback? I'm not fully sure if it's as good as it could be
• Name: Magnus Vargson
• Role(s): Barbarian, sailor, "The Muscle"
• Goals: Redeem himself for killing a high ranking chief in the High King's employ.
• Traits: hueg, brave, irrepressible, superstitious.
• Flaws: Overzealous, prone to rages, bad at first impressions.
• Allies: Crew of the real Captain Cutlass Connors.
• Enemies: Yngvarson Clan.
• Other Relations: Former Yngvarson Clan Member. Monster Hunter's Guild
• Physical Description: Huge, pale, bearded bear of a man. Scars and tattoos of many varieties adorn his body
>Does your OC have/want children?
Probably already has bastard children scattered around, wants to return from exile to his homeland first.
What was your OCs first fling like?
In a Jarl's longhouse after his first combat with a serving girl.
>Did your OC train in combat, or learn it some other way?
Trained by his father, and later by Huscarls and Monster Hunters.
>Why do they wear the armor style that they do?
Barbarians get a CON bonus in 5E for not wearing armour.
>>47732746
>after his first combat with a serving girl
What a tough barbarian he is.
>>47732776
I meant after he had his first combat, he spent the night with a serving girl. But I was running out of text and didn't want to drag it out to a 2nd post but here we are anyways.
>>47732645
>she passes away after he leaves with her insistence, returning home to the news that she's passed away and feeling guilty at not being there for her in her last days
I thought of that too, but the only problem is that I don't know if a funeral or a wedding is better for introducing the other PCs to Robert's family. A marriage after a funeral is just a bit macabre.
The catalyst of personal tragedy after lots of stress from his job is easy motivation for Robert's retirement. And Elinore's encouragement alongside her death, with Robert's realizing his children have grown up, alongside Robert's regret for never following Zaid, after a few months of contemplation all make a good foundation for a 'call to adventure'. I just have this scene in my head whereRobert in formal wear visits his wife's grave before the wedding.
>>47732684
He's extremely generic and has absolutely nothing compelling for a DM to sink their teeth into.
Remember, that is what a background should do; provide the DM with plot hooks. A backstory without plot hooks is a backstory without purpose.
>>47732861
Thanks, I'll develop it later
Plot hooks should be like, run-ins with an adversary or having a personal quest, right?
• Name: Ingrad Breitpfann
• Role(s): Merchant, Explorer and kind of Diplomat.
• Goals: Pay his debts, receive recognition from his Mother for his work and finally become the new head of his trading company
• Traits: He is really hard to kill. It's some kind of running gag that he always survives Situations of certain death. He's a brillant merchant, a great crossbow Archer and a skilled Diplomat.
• Flaws: whiny, neurotic, timid. Tends to freak out in dangerous situations.Very superstitious. He always carries a shitload of holy symbols and trinkets with him. Mistrusts Elves.
• Allies: He is the heir of a huge trading Company which opens most doors for the Party, also some local nobles.
• Enemies: Caravan Leaders, a few merchants.
• Physical Description: He's slim even for the not-halflings in this setting. Red Hair, green eyes, dresses well.
His Mother sends him from one dangerous Tradingroute to another. Besides his sucessful adventurer career he's a walking disaster
>>47733012
Personal desires and maybe some dark secrets too.
>>47733072
>Does your OC have/want children?
Maybe.
>What was your OCs first fling like?
Probably some poor, drunken peasentgirl.
>Did your OC train in combat, or learn it some other way?
His instructors taught him a thing or two, but he developt a rather unusual Combatstyle..
>>47710705
>children?
Yes, though given her F/F arrangement, they'll have to figure something out.
>first fling
Awkward for her, not knowing what she was doing, but it developed into a strong bond that is ongoing.
>train in combat
At the Throneguard Paladin Apprenticeship she was taught swordplay of different varieties.
>armor style

• Allies: The other bodygard of the princess, an old man who guided her into paladinhood.
• Enemies: Solar, a Paladin of another religion who love even more than her to smite evil. More of an inquisitor, really.
• Physical Description: Female Half-Orc with lot of scars with braided black hair. Well built and tall.
>OC Development Questions:
>Does your OC have/want children?
She'd say that she's not the type who could be a good parent either that or she'll say that she has too many responsability to have children. In truth, She'd love to have one.
>What was your OCs first fling like?
With nebulous consent on the other party
>Did your OC train in combat, or learn it some other way?
She first learned to fight by herself in the street.
>Why do they wear the armor style that they do?
It's the armor of her order.
>>47732280
This is fantastic, thanks!
Everyone ignored my OC twice now, so instead I shall post my OC's brother!
>Name:
Vrana Stirbei, Vrana was a name chosen by his mother because it meant "little crow". This was because the day he was born, while his mother held him in her arms, a crow rapped it's beak against the stone window until it eventually flew off.
>Role(s):
Fighter, skirmisher, willing to do the dirty work of the party with or without their consent.
>Goals:
To follow in his mother's footsteps as a witch hunter and fulfill his family's knight-sworn duty to eliminate evil and chaos. Secondary and prioritized goal is to try and take the burden so his sister can live a life of peace as a normal fair lady, not as a hunter too.
>Traits:
Protective, observant and dutiful. Stalwart and dignified at all times.
>Flaws:
Keeps to himself rather than to socialize, sometimes tries to rush things
>Allies:
Aunt who is the Lady of his house, is on somewhat decent terms with her. Since she bares no children if she were to die he would become the lord of his house.
Sister who he regrets ever bringing into the business, he adores her and wishes to try and force her to retire. Sometimes tracks and stalks her during her solo hunts to make sure she's safe.
>Physical Description:
Dark medium length hair and tannish skin, both inherited from his father.
>Does your OC have/want children?
Does not care, but will do his part if he would to become the Lord of his house.
>What was your OCs first fling like?
N/A.
>Did your OC train in combat, or learn it some other way?
Both trained and learned from his mother who became a witch hunter before him. Wields his grandfather's kriegsmesser which was given to him by his aunt when he was knighted.
>Why do they wear the armor style that they do?
Metal to soak damage, but light enough to try and dodge blows. His helmet has a tuft of white hair adorned along the back of it to offer a slight comfort to his sister who was bullied for her hair color when she was younger.

He's the bloody crow of Cainhurst?
>>47735648
Pretty much, I based him heavily off of the bloody crow of Cainhurst.

Zaniel (>>47721164) would take any consequence for refusing the marriage. For he swore a oath to Willow that he would neven have a Girlfriend, fiance, or wife. And braking his word is inconceivable to him.

Lawful neutral, people. Had to, wizard. Had to.
>>47735884
Had to?
I don't understand why would you work against Law and the of protection of citizens?
D do you serve Chaos?

So... if your other character was as much of an "homage" as this one is, are you surprised it got skipped over?
>>47736105
To be fair, a lot of the "homage" I'm paying was actually rolled for in the system I'm playing in(noble/aunt is clanhead/etc). I just picked something to gain inspiration from and made a story around him. Isn't that the point of OC? To make something from scratch? Bloody Crow of Cainhurst has absolutely nothing fleshed out for him aside from being from Cainhurst.
>>47736308you don't read the game lore on items, do you?
>>47736352I do read the items for lore, the only thing I could denote was Crow was from Cainhurst and is suggested to be related to Annalise. Did I miss some items and 100% remake Bloody Crow?
>>47731842
No. You don't name your bloody tools. Or horses. They pass away so quickly when you keep rolling snake eyes on the charge.
Who's his/her best friend?
What does your character do for fun(that isn't adventuring) ?
What's the perfect day for your character?

Bigmsaxon once again proves himself a hero to these threads.
>>47736807
The one we want, but don't deserve.
>>47736076
Absolutely. Chaos for the win, law is for schmucks and paladins. And the question, was "if your OC had to marry... ".
>Had to.
>>47736633
>Who's his best friend?
Beyond his wife? Keth's best friend would have to be the neutral good Illithid turned dire polar bear that has a hero complex. He's starting to rub off on his daughter, too.
>What does you character do for fun?
When he's not adventuring or helping the needy, Keth likes to perform for people. Whether it's telling stories, singing, or dancing.
>What's the perfect day for your character?
Either a day with his family, or a day righting wrongs and serving his goddess. He doesn't adventure for profit, he does it because he feels joy in helping those who can't help themselves.
I have a question /oc/. Is it autistic to conceive characters before actually participating in a game in which you use them? I've heard of stories where people do that and it seems to me like it's a warning light for having a bad/uncreative/autistic player.I have a google doc with a few hypothetical characters described at length on it, but not for any particular version of DnD.
>>47736886
Less 'autistic' and more 'dick move'.
>>47736886
I have one character that I've used for three different games but I adjust him as the DM needs. But for the most part I try to make characters that the party needs.
