Wow, that was a speed round! Thanks for such great participation :D
We’ve made ourselves Thalra, a bi female drow barbarian.
With the race ability score increases, we get these stats: Strength: 17 Dexterity: 13 Constitution: 15 Intelligence: 14 Wisdom: 2 Charisma: 9 She is sour, bitter and rude to most everyone. She’s seen things, done things and taken things all over the world and sharing her story is about as far down on the priority list as it can get, and her list of low priorities is fairly extensive. While her companions drink and make merry, she sits in a corner, ever watchful while whittling little wooden ducks of various designs. It is a strange sight. Nosy strangers are given a sharp glance and an elbow to the gut, on good days. Praise is met with.. Varying responses. It seems she doesn’t really know what to do with genuine compliments.
She grew up poor in a family on the run from prejudice. Early on she learned to simply take what she wanted, didn’t much matter how as long as she got away with all her teeth in her mouth and both eyes in their sockets. It’s grown into a compulsion and she simply can’t help herself, even when she does have coin. Sometimes you just have to take what you want. Give nothing back.
Or maybe give some things back, if it’s friends asking. They’re so fragile and inexperienced, her friends. It’s like watching toddlers waddling about the wilderness; they’d be lost without her. It’s her job to make sure they remain safe. To make sure they don’t go hungry. That they don’t get cold. Fall ill. Die.
Never again will she watch someone she cares for slowly perish.
Never again.
