The New Adventures in Dungeon and Dragons


Richards is playing a yet unnamed half-fiend drow. Sean is Rosco and Zach is Xachioplli. So who are these characters and what are their origins? Well dear reader let us find out.

Richards origins are shrouded in mystery; fore Richard's character himself does not know his true heritage. Sometime when Richards was a small child; his mother fled society because her son was starting to develop fiendish characteristics. For the most part of Richards childhood his mother raised him in the caves of the Underdark.

Richards mother would teach him things like laungaue and how to use his drow abilities. Richards mother would hunt and gather food in the Underdark and teach her child how to survive. This would go on until Richard's character was a young adolescent when his mother was slay by good-aligned adventures.

From this point on Richards was by himself in the Underdark. Richards would harvest his hate for surface dwellers and would grow into an adult utterly alone in the Underdark. During this time Richards would develop the skills that would translate into him becoming a rogue. Richards at some point came across and tricked a group of good-aligned adventures too their doom; during which Richards would acquire his magic sword. Richards interest in the arcane arts and developing his weapon style would lead him to the path of a hex blade.

Eventually Richards became confident in his abilities and would challenge more adventures; usually trying to lure individuals off and defeating them in personal combat. In one of these episodes Richards would defeat a young sorcerer who's familiar would turn out to more than it appeared. The dead sorcerer's familiar revealed itself to be a quasit imp and was angry that Richards had defeated the sorcerer in some manor that did not allow the quasit imp to steal the dead sorcerer's soul.

The quasit sees a way to gain some favor and talks Richards into traveling to the Abyss to meet his master Graz'zt. Richards never meets Garz'zt. Instead the quasit tries to trick Richards into being sold into slavery but Richards reacts quickly enough to save his skin and show his physical might. Agents of Graz'zt are impressed and Richards is invited to join the Knights of Graz'zt as an apprentice.

Richards works hard to prove himself a valuable recruit and starts to worship the demonic might of Graz'zt. Eventually Richards would be given a task that would send him out of the Abyss and into other outer realms. And that is where Richards is going to meet up with our other adventures dear reader.

Roscoe the daring halfling grew up in the Outlands traveling around dealing with demons and devils. Roscoe has become a near mater of craft and just needs targets to prove his skill. Xachipolli is a human who grew up knowing something was different about him. Once Xachipollil dwelled on the prime material plane but has since left and began traveling the outer realms studying dragon magic. During these studies Xachipolli has unlocked something hidden inside himself and is slowing developing dragonic traits.

So dear reader where our adventure will start is with Richards recruiting Roscoe and Xachipolli into joining him on his mission for experience and rewards.
