No one picked a race this week so I decided to pick one
of my own. I want to see what I could do with the most basic most common race,
Humans. To that end I added an extra challenge and let it pick a home region,
alignment and religion for me. So join me as I try and see what I can do with
these stats.

else’s property.

Looks at stats thought Bard.
ReplyDeleteLooked at background thought court bard. Kidnapped by a band of thieves disguised as a circus for Ranson and fell in Stockholm syndrome love with the music and flair. Especially with their leader, an aasimar Oracle of Sheyln who knows not of the crimes his performers commit. This brief stint with them leads to a life of an adventurer realizing how much he dislikes the life tied to a court, eventually publicly renouncing it after being returned in exchange for ransom, smashing the same sculpture in the center as he storms out.
