Cast Appearing[]
Setting[]
- Sky Castle
Script[]
| Red Mage | I think everyone should work up a unique back-ground story before the adventure starts. |
| Muffin | I kind of hoped this conversation died. |
| Red Mage | They have a million uses! |
| Red Mage | Or at least several. |
| Red Mage | You background can justify unrealistic equipment load outs. |
| Red Mage | "Where'd you get that masterwork sword?" Dad was the greatest swordsmith of his age! "Okay, why's your melee skill so high?" I trained my whole life to avenge his murder! |
| Red Mage | Quicktip: Tragedy equals depth. |
| Red Mage | You can even use your background to justify crazy stuff that completely contradicts it. |
| Red Mage | "Where did you get that ancestral Dwarven full plate you can't even wear because you're goddamn human?" My dead master swordsmith dad was an armorer. Also a dwarf. |
| Red Mage | Secrets equals depth too. Quicktip:Lies Disguised as secrets also equal depth. |
| Muffin | Yeah, I guess I've got one of those backgrounds too. |
| Muffin | Ten thousands years ago I established the Dragoonish order to kill of the other dragons so I could tak all their power, treasure, and knowledge. Then I systematically killed the Dragoons so they'd never find out thier generations of work to save humanity from evil dragons benefited the most evil dragon in the world. |
| Red Mage | Secrets, lies, and tragedy. The Trifecta. |
