Yo. Yeah, it's a new quest. So sue me.

Choose A Background-

[] Your earliest memories are of shadow and death- Twisted, slender forms darting through broken walls and the slow drip of blood in your ears. You were only a child when your family's farmstead was taken back by the jungle, but you still carry the memory with you every night- and it haunts your dreams.

[] Your family has served your lord as retainers for as long as anyone can remember- Some say since the time of the Shattering. As the seventh son of a seventh son, you are merely one vassal among a crowd of others- But among all of them, you were the one given the honor of being the playmate of your lord's child.

[] Your early life was one of spoiled indulgence. As your lord father's youngest daughter, you were the apple of his eye- And he constantly bowed to your every whim and desire. While growing up, you wanted for nothing- Until the day your father died, and your eldest brother took his place as Hold-Lord.

Choose a mentor-

[] You were sent to the great academy as a conscript, another body to throw between your people and those who threaten them.

[] You caught the eye of a landless lord in his travels- And for reasons you aren't sure you understand, he decided to take you with him.

[] You were sent to a small holding where the jungles meet the mountain, intended as a gift for the new lord of that place.

So anyway, what was the winning vote?
Better that than another Nerd quest.

Kind of upset that people threw away the chance to be the seventh son of a seventh son because they wanted to be a spoiled little girl.

Well I wanted spoiled little rich girl tossed out into the wilderness straight into the life of a wild beast... Can't have that by being picked out by random noble now...

Bah...

Bah...
Being "intended as a gift for the new lord of that place", while certainly not present, doesn't sound to me like being thrown into the wilderness.
Besides, if you wanted our char to suffer from his circumstances, you could have picked the one with the constant nightmares.
That would have lead to bad stuff no matter which other option won.
 
Suffering isn't the point... I wanted a wilderness connected martial art. Something where the master would use the hellish wilderness as the anvil to his hammer. And a spoiled little rich girl as the steel being forged between them.

Okay.

I'll update this in a bit. Assuming, of course, my sister does not jack the computer while I'm helping my neighbor from his armchair to his bed.

... On the one hand, being a CNA objectively kind of sucks. OTOH, MONEY.

You are Cuilan, the daughter of Astorei- The great dragon of the south, who had in years past single-handedly slew a thousand of the dark ones in their great surges. He was a great general, and a doting father who despaired your general lack of interest and talent in the fighting art and encouraged your love of the more cerebral persuits you were fond of- The arts, and the skill of medicine.

Unfortunately, even the greatest of men grew old with time- And so it was that a mere few weeks before your fourteenth birthday your father passed away in bed- Surrounded by his old friends, and his beloved family.

It was barely two months before you found yourself given in apprenticeship to a new lord. Your eldest brother, whether from lack of caring or jealousy you are not sure, had decided that the best use he could make of you was to trade you for favor with another family. You begged and pleaded with him not to send you, but he did not relent- And soon enough your caravan was travelling the jungle, headed towards the distant keep your new master had recently founded.
____________________

The caravan comes to a sudden and halting stop at a cry from the path ahead of you. You sit up, alert, as the guards on either side ready their weapons.

A man stumbles around a curve in the path, bleeding profusely from several wounds. "Help," You hear him shout, "The trees, they are-" His cry is cut off by a suddenly raising root tripping him up and wrapping around his ankle.

[] What do?
 
[x] Help him, find something to cut him down and tend his wounds, but be on guard for additional threats.
