WhY hElLo fOlkS!

This isn’t smart, considering I’m packed with work— but to hell with that! Or, shall I say, to the Nine Circles with that!
I discovered a website a whole long time ago called http://whothefuckismydndcharacter.com/ and I wanted a challenge in writing one of these characters. This whole rp is gonna be sorta a writing exercise with practicing different characters. What I want you to do, in order to join, is go to this website and refresh the page, then use that character for this rp. We will be filling out templates as well, but just use that character as a base. Even though this is technically a ‘dnd character generator,’ this will not be a dnd roleplay. Although, it will keep decently the same themes (like fantasy, magic, creatures, etc).
I do have a storyline in mind, but I would like to see the characters before I post it, because I might want to alter it.

Ask to join please, and then go get your character, and I’ll provide the template! (Make sure to include the website’s passage about the character before the template, please.)

Rules:

• Be relatively active pls :3
• Rated whatever is fine (for language, actions, etc) / whatever you’re comfortable with. (This rp will probably lean more toward mature)
• 3+ sentences, pls
• GrAMmaR
• No controlling someone else’s character
• We can chill in pm’s if we need to
• No OP pls. Or maybe yes OP. Depends

This looks interesting, may I?

Absolutely! Welcome aboard.

Thanks! Alright!

I'll have to find a character sometime tomorrow, I'm about to head to bed

(Alright, well in the meantime, I’ll get the temp up here. Fill it out whenever!)

Passage overview from the website: SUSPICIOUS ELF SORCERER FROM A CAVERN WITHOUT ECHOES WHO IS JUST TRYING TO GET BY (THAT DOESN'T MAKE ANY FUCKING SENSE)

Full Name: Rosemary Spire
Nicknames/Aliases: "What's a nickname?"
Age: "22. Wait, 23? Or 24? I don't know, the years pass by so slowly and yet so quickly and I'm all by myself so I don't know." … She's 25.
Gender: Female
Occupation: Sorcerer, specialises in healing and in the elements

Personality: Rosemary is quite quiet, and she isn't very good at talking to people. She is a little bit shy because she doesn't know how to talk to real humans. She finds it hard to speak her mind because she will get nervous and then freak out a little bit, so she just doesn't.
She is extremely kind and caring, willing to help anyone in need. She can be a little bit naive sometimes because she's been alone for so long, so she doesn't know that a man offering to buy her a drink could end in something very not good.
Mannerisms: Rosemary is prone to fidgeting, especially when she gets nervous. She'll put her hood over her head during the day because she's not used to the light, so having a way to block the sun helps her.
Hobbies: Cooking, reading spell books, advancing her magic

Physical Appearance: https://d.wattpad.com/story_parts/862544612/images/1603d27b1b819d39108875395866.jpg. She's very short, around 150cm tall.
Normal Attire / Gear: I can imagine her wearing either of these (couldn't find a clear of either (also both of them have really long urls so im sorry but you might have to like quote and then look at them i googled searched them to find a clearer version and all of the urls are this long im sorry)) - one or two, but with hooded cloaks as well.

Backstory: Rosemary has always lived in the same cavern, with her parents settling there a few months before she was born. It somehow didn't echo voices, so whenever baby Rosemary cried she wasn't heard by beings outside the cavern. When she was about 8, her parents left for some reason. She was left alone. She never really needed to leave the cavern because she could just grow stuff in the rocks and have clean water at all times.
The only time she leaves is to 'steal' books from a local wizard's shop. As in: she goes in, takes a book and hides it in her clothes, then leaves. The owner knew her parents. He knows that she is a sorcerer. He knows she takes them and he doesn't stop her. He is a good man.
Family: Parents disappeared when she was 8. Haven't come back. She thinks that they are dead.

Passage overview from the website:

STOIC TIEFLING CLERIC FROM A CITY IN THE SHIFTING SANDS WHO HAS A BAD GAMBLING PROBLEM

Full Name: Tollik Ilteagvas
Nicknames/Aliases: Toll / Tollie
Age: 27
Gender: Male h/h
Occupation: Cleric, sworn to the goddess Kusgan.

Personality: A little bit shifty, a little bit shady, and a little bit sharp. Tollik is a smart one, his mind piecing together different pieces of information always so he can see the full picture. He’s fascinated by all kinds of puzzles, and sees gambling as a “sport” he can master. He loves the thrill of the luck of the cards, never missing a day without betting it all. He has more money from it than one would think, considering his stoical appearance leaves the other players with even less than a read. He can be blatantly flirtatious, using that infernal drawl and charm of his to get what he wants— a bit of a smooth-talker with a silken tongue. He’s very emotionally stable and cares for himself, not really giving a damn about those who despise him. He’s decently calm when he’s not being a seductive nuisance, and can seem quite profound.
Mannerisms: Holds himself tall, unlike most gamblers / Speaks with his hands often, and gives exaggerated gestures / flicks his tail when he’s bored or stationary / otherwise, he has no mannerisms for other emotions. He knows how to keep a poker face.
Hobbies: Gambling, of course / playing the pipe flute / looking at the stars / dancing

Physical Appearance: Looks akin to this but not entirely. Tollik’s skin is a traditional darker red, and his hair is almost black. His horns are uneven, one even cracked slightly, and wrap around from the top of his forehead to his jaw, like a ram’s. They’re ridged and spiked as well. His eyes are a gleaming gold, the pupils a clear white, and his smile is somewhat teasing. His hair is much straighter than the picture, falling into and just above his eyes. His body is relatively toned, and he’s quite tan with many freckles, considering he worked out in the sands. His freckles are gold as well, speckling his body like little constellations. He stands at about 5’10”, his tail wrapping roughly 5’ behind him.
Normal Attire / Gear: Much like the image, he likes to wear many clothes and layers that reflect his time living in the Shifting Sands. They normally have eccentric designs, and the armor is never metal, considering that would conduct heat on an even grander scale. Toll also always has cards on hand.

Backstory: Left as a child due to his uneven composition, Tollik soon found heart in Kusgan. The goddess reached out to him, asking him if he were to grow as her disciple. Tollik agreed, and although he never saw the goddess again, he knows she’s there, watching over his every move.
Family: Unknown
Other: He never cheats at gambling. Never. It’s just simply his demeanor that helps him win, and the luck of the draw.

Passage overview from the website: discerning Human Sorcerer from the royal court who has a regular sleepwalking issue

Full Name: Kazimir Josef West
Nicknames/Aliases: Kaz, Kazi (only by his sister; he will probably curse anyone else who calls him that)
Age: 24
Gender: Male
Occupation: Sorcerer (I know legit nothing about DnD, so uh)

Personality: Kaz is very smart, with good judgement. He is not hot-headed at all, and will often think something through before doing it. This does not, however, always apply to his words, and he tends to be a little, well…not always cautious about what he says, which has often led to some difficulties at court, where your words can be turned against you and used as weapons. His judgement, however, does not always apply when there is someone he is interested in romantically, and he has been known to get tangled up with people who will hurt him, or who are only after him for money or power. He has grown more cautious about this, but this has led to a general distrust of everyone, not just those he is interested in.
Mannerisms: Goes very still when he is anxious about something. / Tends to stick his tongue out just a little bit when he is concentrating / tilts his head to the side sometimes in an effort to make up for his missing eye
Hobbies: Practicing his magic. Reading. Drawing. Swordplay.

Physical Appearance: Kaz is slightly less than average height, at 5'8", with a slim, lightly muscled body. He has reddish brown hair, that hangs just past his chin in length. It is wavy, not straight, but not quite curly either. He occasionally has light stubble on his jawline when he forgets to shave, which isn't often. He has an angular, slim face. His eyes are a light green, though one is just slightly lighter than the other. The reason? The lighter colored eye isn't real. He lost his left eye in an accident when he was younger, and it was replaced with a glass eye. It is difficult to tell that this eye isn't real, and he doesn't often reveal that it isn't. He has light freckles scattered around his body, along with assorted scars. There is a small tattoo on his left hip of a black rose. He has piercings in both ears.
Normal Attire / Gear: Loose, comfortable clothing, though he does have a good sense of style, when he chooses to exercise it. Typically has small gold earrings in his ears, and a necklace around his neck. That is usually the extent of his jewelry.

Backstory: Kaz is the younger of the two princes; his older brother is the crown prince. For this reason, he is often overlooked and allowed to do his own thing, without too much supervision by their parents. When he was eight, he and his brother were sparring with fencing swords, without protective gear, and his brother took out his eye. After that, they started to drift apart, even though before then they had been best friends as well as brothers. But his brother blamed himself for ruining Kaz's eye, and there was nothing Kaz could say that would change his mind. Kaz has always had a sleepwalking problem, and takes drugs to help himself sleep better, though the drugs don't always work the way he wishes they would.
Family: King Inan West, father. Queen Tamara Sintar-West, mother. Crown Prince Maximilian West, older brother. Princess Layla West, younger sister.

(I hope his status as a prince is okay? If not I can change it, let me know)

• When our “heroes” are out for a night on the town, they are all mysteriously brought together by a little goblin thief, who steals each of their most beloved possessions. Upon chasing the goblin down to an alley without an exit, the goblin just smiles and says
  “Tollik, Kazimir, Rosemary— such beautiful heroes. Such a pleasure it is to bring you all together! Truly your adventure is going to be marvelous. Ta-ta!”
  With that, the goblin vanishes, but not before you catch a mysterious glimmer in his eyes. Instantly after, the sky turns a crimson red for a split moment, before returning to its normal navy hue. It continues to do this, adding one more flash each day. Almost as if it were counting.
  To what number? We don’t know.
  Yet.

I do actually have an explanation for it all, but it’s up to you guys if you want me to explain it, or if it would be more real to just go in blind.

Ooh I like it! I'm not sure if I want the explanation or not
