Include as much or as little backstory as you wish. *However, the more you give me, the more I can work with you to bring your story into the world we create.* There are a lot of examples of great questions to answer when coming up with your back story, and I’ve linked many videos with help on this topic in the [this channel](https://discord.com/channels/1204631753449275392/1204632697859874888) on our Discord. Write a story, or a bulleted list - whatever works best for you. Here’s a list of items that I would prefer you include to help me. Please feel free to expand on this list as much as your storytelling heart desires! - Character Name/Pronouns - Race/Class/Expected Sub-Class/Any planned multi-class (*don’t worry, we can change these plans later if you change your mind as you level up and learn more about your character*) - Chosen bonus non-combat feat and how it fits into your story - available list on the [[Character Creation]] page - Home Town/Region - is there anything about this place that stands out to you? - 2-3 NPCs from your past with a brief description of who they are and why they are important to you/your story (*doesn’t have to be positive*) - Answers to the Session Zero questions (*see below*) - Your biggest regret/Something that has defined you - Answers to the Solar Eclipse questions. - Why did you leave home? - Why have you decided to become an adventurer? - What is your current goal? - How have all of these things lead to you being a part of this caravan? - What personal item/totem do you carry with you and why/what does it represent? Have fun! ___ #### Solar Eclipse Questions: - How would your character feel about the solar eclipse? - How would they react? - Would they know about it in advance? If so, where would they have gotten that knowledge? ___ #### Feast of the Moon Questions: - Does your PC have any traditions or rituals for the Feast of the Moon (Moonfest) that they would want to observe? - [Feast of the Moon](https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Feast_of_the_Moon)
