sure I'll submit :D, but when will we know which of us have been picked? Name: Maxwell Engimas Age: 350 Class/race idea: Dwarf cleric (knowledge) Experience with d&d: 1-2 years Experience with Roll20: sadly none, but willing to learn Character backstory idea: (Thinking Lawful Neutral...want to leave some of his backstory open for DM interpretation and plot hooks :o ) Maxwell has always loved knowledge, and horded whatever he could get his hands upon. He's done so with such vigor that he's forgotten his own name, or least his original one; he's had a few over the years, but never cares to remember them if they take up much-needed space. As a dwarf, he was expected by many in his village to become a warrior, and he does recall faded memories of being made fun of for his thirst for wisdom. While he laughed it off, this did create within him an antagonistic mood toward any who use brawl to solve problems, as opposed to brains. (those whipper-snappers never think about their problems; they just smash their way through.) But, he always looks back and chuckles about it; in the end, he won out; he's lived a long and fulfilled life, while they probably died on the battlefield. Maxwell has spent almost 300 years seeking out libraries, archives and ancient tomes, reading all he could from cover to cover. But, as he enters his twilight years, he realised a horrible truth about his knowledge: he was going to pass on with this information stuck in his mind, and so he sets out to pass on his wisdom to a younger generation.
