Now that the Background Prompt Generator's been posted, I'll go ahead and set down some basic rules in terms of preparation for starting the campaign and what backstory information to have ready for your characters by our first session.
- We will be starting Wednesday, May 18th. Generally speaking, if Sal's campaign isn't set to go, we will be doing my campaign instead, so long as I've got something ready.
- Make sure that you have your character finalized by the day before we start, so that I can look it over. Currently we have a Tiefling Hexblade (Sal's character), an Elf Warpriest (Traver's character), and a Human Mage (Bibart's character); Andrew does not yet have a character made but will be playing a Defender role. I'll try and update this as things change, and make a post for each character once they're all finalized.
- In terms of character names, you may either have just a first name; a first and a last name; or a nickname. Nicknames should have some sort of relevant backstory.
- For backstory, try to fill in each of the "blanks" presented in the Background Prompt Generator's "questions", at minimum. You can come up with these answers on your own; roll for random selections from the list; or choose from the selections on the list. However you decide to do it, make sure to consult with me on the details - basic information on cities, important people, major organizations and so on. If there's more you'd like to put in your backstory, go ahead!
That about covers it. Looking forward to getting everything rolling!
