Ahoy! I'm over from GitP with a charming young entertainer who found a neat sword in the woods! Just a small town girl!
(I swapped leather armor for Scale Mail because it's the default that medium armor wearers get, and a simple weapon for a martial weapon the same way.)

Okay, I'll go with Pharasma then. He'll be basically low ranking minion of the Psychopomps, at least in fluff terms and can have been sent on a mission to either free some trapped souls to go to their final judgement. But I'm also going to switch to a high elf. Because honestly, at this point to do otherwise is kind of counter-productive. The Necrotic resitance would be nice, but without an int buff he'd be a fairly sub-par wizard. It'll also let him pick up some more traditional elven weaponry. And I can still fluff him the same, minus a teleport. (Which isn't fluffy for Pharasma, or Golarion elves.)
Not done yet, no backstory or any of the usual fluff. But the crunch is basically finished.

So, it's short and kind of contrived. But here's a basic backstory for Shabrek. Everything's on the sheet. I'll happily come up with a post-ending minisheet soon, if he's accepted, to help keep track of current stats and spell usage.
Shabrek has a shadowed past. He will never speak of it though, and it is inconsequential aside from explaining 'how' he came to be a mortal agent of the Psychopomps. The simple truth is he was once mixed up with the wrong people and came to the attention of the arbiters of death. His participation was deemed minor, and his intent at the time was merely misunderstood. So instead of punishing him for his involvement, he was given a chance at redemption in their eyes.
Thus, Shabrek was trained in the arts of stealth, combat and arcane magic. He spent many years hunting down information on various necromancers and their agents. Recently though, the events of Lastwall have become a serious problem and Shabrek has been sent to Nirmathas with instructions to help solve any problems that pop up in hopes of helping the nation be able to free up more resources to defend themselves from the undead menace of the newly re-named Gravelands.

GargoyleKing That sounds good, the only question I have is on your sheet you have resistance at 3rd level, where's that come from, but other than that feel free to join us in the game forum and repost your character there. Akodorokku Sounds interesting, anythoughts on ties to Nirmathas or Phaendar? Other than that I find Ophitihne interesting.

Akodorokku Sounds interesting, anythoughts on ties to Nirmathas or Phaendar? Other than that I find Ophitihne interesting. Ophithne grew up in Phaendar! She was never much good at the handicraft that most of the residents practice, but she could always make people smile. Do a little dance, sing a little song, fall flat on her face - she's basically the local clown. Then one day on a walk in the woods she got kinda turned around and maybe spent a few hours getting progressively more scared that she might never find her way back to the village, until she found a weird old sword stuck into a tree. She gave it an experimental tug and it just popped right out like nothing. Playing-acting with it a bit settled her nerves, and before she knew it she found her way back to Phaendar no problem. She'd barely ever picked up a sword before, but this one seemed to fit her grip like it was made for her. And also maybe give her magic powers? She hasn't talked about it a lot, but she's integrated "Clown's Edge" into her act since she brought it home, as well as a little illusion here and there. It's certainly made things more fun!

Actually, I think that's a lefover from the Shadar-Kai part. At lv 3 their teleport ability gives them a temporary resistance for a round. Will remove it as he's a High Elf now.

Well if what I seen from gitp is correct on who is already playing then I think we need some support. I'd like to play a mark of making human who is part of a guild of crafting. I'd like to play an artificer going battlesmith
