Labyrinth of the Lost

Minotaur - Fighter (Rune Knight) - Soldier

Concept: Took part in a war between his people and Frost Giants. Was taken as a prisoner of war and locked in the depths of a labyrinth. After an uncertain number of years he finally managed to find his way through after slowly figuring out the various giant runes in his prison; however when he got out the giants were gone, their settlement in ruin. There was no sign of conflict. It was as though they simply left and never came back. His own people were equally absent upon his return home. Now he searches for answers.

Appearance: 7′2. White fur, blue eyes, black nose. Mane and beard are braided. Has a few strips of leather wrapped around his horns. Blue tabard over chainmail, wears a patchwork fur cloak. Wields polearms.

Preparing to be besieged by an undead horde, a.k.a. doing some renovations!

Shan assists with boarding up doors, Mick gathers caustic slime to set some traps, Cadence and Oceanus confront some nosy neighbors, and Khaspar has some bonding time with a fellow follower of Procan while reinforcing the roof.

Here's a few one-shot and campaign characters I've played over the last few years. We had so many quick online campaigns in the early covid years I didn't have time to draw them all.

And the last one is Julian Redgrave, from @tanukitheater's campaign that wrapped this week

[rooolt]

Actual play characters will be battle masters and I’ll be a little disappointed because there’s so many other fun fighter subclasses and everyone’s always a battle master, but then I’ll see them play and it’s like fine maybe this is a bit cool

Bolverk

Having gotten passed the properly used (or intended to be used) characters, we now trickle down into the “good idea” pile. These are concepts that are largely fleshed out (With room to fiddle dependent on the setting) and just waiting to be used. The first is a character named Bolverk who I thought up a very long time ago.

Fighter (Rune Knight*)/Ranger (Monster Slayer) - Anthropologist - Half-Orc - Backstory Concept: Born in a small farming village on the outskirts of civilization, pressed against the mountains, his birth came about as many half-orcs do, for the sake of politics. Under constant threat by a nearby band of Orcs, the human villagers were able to strike up a deal. Not exactly an alliance, but more of a non-aggression pact; not that the orcs had anything to fear from a village populated mostly my trappers and farmers. The orcs seemed to accept due to being on the tail end of a bad winter, low supplies and disease having impacted their numbers. In order to seal the pact, each side would one of their number to pair off and conceive a child, with that child acting as a diplomat between both sides in the future. The villagers for their part offered up a farmer, a mountain of a man who was the only human among them large enough to look an orc directly in the eye. They had hoped by providing someone physically capable, they'd be able to please the orcs and strengthen the pact. For the orcs part they offered up a woman heavy with scars, only barely shorter than her counterpart in this deal. The act was loveless and quick, but by luck or fate, bore fruit rather quickly. Thus -insert name here- was born. Raised for the first few years of his life amongst the Orcs, though he was made present during all interactions with the humans. Once he was old enough to learn, they began passing him back and forth between sides, expecting him to absorb the culture, language, and politics of both sides. This is not to say however, that he was passed between his mother and father. In fact he had very little interaction with either, excluding a few encounters during his lessons, and a few birthdays. On the humans side, he was instructed by the Village Chief, an aged and slightly tottering man, and the only one particularly capable of tutoring him in any sort of politics. Among the Orcs he was a taught by Drukvar, a scout and hunter with sharp senses, and a brusque personality, who likely would have throttled you for using a word as fancy as brusque.  All seemed to be progressing smoothly with both -insert name here-'s education, as well as the pact, until one night without warning, the Orcs attacked. Nothing and no one were spared from blade and flame, not even -insert name here- himself. Only through the unique nature of his mixed blood, did he survive the massacre of the village, and through it witness the victorious declarations of the the orcs new chieftain, Drukvar. The following morning, once he was certain the orcs had departed, -insert name here- salvaged what very little he could from the ashes of his former home, and set out in search of civilization, for there was none here.

Variant*: Fighter(Echo Knight)/Ranger (Gloom Stalker) - Anthropologist - Half-Orc -

Variant Backstory Concept: The Underdark is of danger, unimaginable horrors, and betrayal. -Insert name here- came about not by the union of human and orc, as do most of his kind, but rather the by drow and orgog. Under normal circumstances, the only thing that Drow share in common with any variation of Orc is the belief that their own race is superior to all others; however both have been known to form alliances in the face of true threats. In this particular case, the threat in question was an illithid hive which had begun to venture beyond it's normal domain. Rather than a proper city, the drow resided in something of a military outpost, meant to protect the city proper from the threats of the lower levels of the Underdark. In the orogs they saw some much needed muscle, as well as disposable meatshields to aid them against the encroaching threat. The orogs for their part had no more love for Illithids than any race, and understood that they presented a threat which couldn't be combated with physical prowess alone. Thus an alliance was forged, and to seal that deal, as well as aid in the future such arrangements, a child was born. They would have one of mixed blood act as an ambassador to both sides. Of course, the Drow are a Matriarchy, and the Orcs a Patriarchy, each treating the opposite gender as little more than trophies, pets, or tools. The situation was thus, rather more like two parties agreeing to breed dogs, with neither bringing their prized hound to the pen. For the Drow's part, they provided a lesser male, neither magically gifted nor particularly talented. He was promised advancement in their society should he perform well, all the more so should he produce a female through this conception. The orogs presented a woman with unblemished skin, and petite frame. Neither a good sign in orc society. From this pair, -insert name here- was born. He spent his first few years among the orogs, though his interaction with his mother ended the moment he was weened. The drow were disappointed both with his gender, and lack of visible magical talent, however he would suit their purposes. Thus from the moment he was old enough to learn, the two races passed him back and forth, instructing him in their language, customs, and culture. While -insert name here- was raised, the combined forces of the orogs and drow made several raids against the encroaching illithids. On the night of what was to be the final raid, the finale of a decade of skirmishes, the orogs attacked. The drow had, of course, always planned to betray the orogs of course, but they had been so utterly convinced in the superiority of their number and their mental superiorirty they never expected the orog to do the same. The outpost was overtaken in a single night, the drow there slaughtered or enslaved, -insert name here- only escaping due to hiding in a mound of corpses, and not intentionally. Once he was clear of the outpost he managed to reach the drow city of which the outpost had been connected, only to learn many harsh truths of the world. Drow had no love for a mixed blood of their race, particularly not a male, and the outpost was not as significant as he had been lead to believe. It was a place to send outcasts and undesirables, those whom could not be killed outright, or simply weren't worthy of the effort. The orog occupation was quite convenient in that sense. So it was that -insert name here- was cast out by both his people, but a Half-Orc does not die easily even in the Underdark. Having no reason to remain, he made his way to the surface, using the same skills he'd learned intending to be an ambassador in order to more easily mingle and mix in with other cultures.

Appearance: Uncertain height and weight, or even eye colour. Probably black hair hair (White for variant). Skin is probably reddish brown if not the traditional green. Variant would be black skinned because orog x drow. Definitely not a slab of meat, but strong enough. Which class I chose and what stats I rolled would be a factor. Definitely has a nice thick beard.
