History Lesson

Hey kids! this morning I have to think up a history project for my very second D&D character EVER! woo! I'm gonna draw a nice little picture of him with my crayons too! I'll make his beard red and his shorts blue! and he can wear a pink-purple poncho too!

Thanks, you've been great! I'll be here all week.....

But seriously fokes, for those of you who care, the premis behind this stought fellow is an intense love of the sky and a need to fly (no no, not a drug-addict). For the first few sessions (up untill he learns 3ed level spells), he will be intensly interested in anything involving flight. Not that this will change after he learns the spell (and eventually keeps an metamagicaly extended version prepared at ALL times), but then he will simply be spending a great portion of his time in the air instead. After he atains his goal of soaring through the clouds, he will begin searching for a new way to fly (again, stop it with the drugs!). Hybrid will become very interested in the plains and travling therein. Eventually, I would like to have him become a planeshifter, but I'll have to talk to Amanda about that one ;)

On to the history!

Hybrid grew up in something of a smallish dwarven clan. In the clan's distant past, they were once a part of a great Dwarven empire that fell in some great war. Hybrid's ancestors were decedent from a small outpost of that empire, and some of the ancient traditions have survived the long years since the downfall. One of these traditions has created something strange among dwarven kind: an acceptance of the practice of magic. Some of the world's very greatest Transmuters, it is said, were also the greatest of the clan's ancestors..... I'll continue it later, as I have to go to class :P
