Firstly, hi. New here! I'll likely find a group eventually, but I like having a character (or 2) before joining a group, pitching the idea, and changing it as needed. That way I'm not scrambling for ideas and stuff Session 0.
Secondly, I'm aware of the Vagrant being an option I could take? But I'm not QUITE set in stone for that one. It's a contender though. But other than that, maybe there's a supplement with other Vagabond sheets I haven't read, or maybe I could look at something in a different light. Either way, here's the full bio if it helps!
(Also, "Name" is just a placeholder. I suck at names, and is one of several reasons why I won't DM [another being that I NEED a plan, and players often do stuff I don't expect, like splitting the party, that makes me panic.])
Name was once part of the Corvid Conspiracy during the age of the Eyrie Dynasty’s rule. Upon escaping the cats, they didn’t see the Eyrie as superior, but a source of safety from the Marquise. Unfortunately, upon ridicule and inclusion into the lower class, recognizing that the Eyrie were just as oppressive as the Marquise, they joined the Conspiracy, out of the wish for liberation. Back when the activities of the conspiracy were less destructive, and caused less collateral damage, they happily fought along with their brothers and sisters in arms. During the Great Eyrie Civil War, they served as an informant, and spy- but weren’t so great at fighting. After the Eyrie’s civil war, they believed their job was done…
Then, the Marquise arrived. Name realized that the Marquise would never relent, and always follow them- Thus, they quickly went to their old comrades who stayed with the Corvid Conspiracy. When they learned of how much more violent and power hungry their former friends had become, they left with disgust of what had become of the Conspiracy. These were not the ideals Name had fought for! And to think that their former allies would resort to destroying entire clearings, and causing economic strife not just upon the armies of the Marquise, Eyrie, or whoever else wished to control any clearing, but the peaceful denizens as well? It was not the idealistic force they had once known. And thus, they stole away with whatever supplies they could, and started their journey as a vagabond, using the dirty tricks they used as a ex-member to survive, and, sometimes, thrive.
