This week we return to our regular
schedule and the first character of 2018. We rolled half-elf follower of Abadar
from a poor background. He is of Kellid stock on his human sized and resides in
the fledgling democracy of Andoran. A mid-range dexterity and constitution
could mean some kind of ranged combatant. A high charisma opens the door to
many social classes. The question as always is what do we create from these
building blocks.
