Here's a short backstory of an Aasimar Fathomless Warlock that I'm looking forward to playing.
"After running away from her abusive Zakharan family at the age of ten, Ijemma signed on with a merchant ship and sailed the seas for the following twelve years. She eventually captained her own brig, the Dashing Dalu.
One year ago, on her last voyage to the Sword Coast, an unexpected storm struck the Dalu in the strait between the Moonshae and Nelanther Isles.
When she washed ashore the next day, she remembered little of her crew's demise, only vestiges of the night's horrid events: cracking wood, anguished cries, water everywhere. Then wooden remnants sinking to the seabed, a giant tentacle, a pact made in mortal fear.
As dreams of being dragged into eldritch depths intensified (angelic guide), Ijemma decided to stay ashore for the time being."
I'm a complete newby to Dungeons and Dragons and especially the Forgotten Realms so any tips, notes and pieces of general advice are highly welcome. Any thoughts?
