I’m not dead!
Here’s a straightforward DnD character just to shake off some rust.
Dungeons And Dragons character:
Magpie, Halfling warlord/commander/whatever
The woman who would become Magpie served in the border guard of the kingdom, before she got in the way of a corrupt official who wanted to blame a town’s orcish resident for the town’s troubles. She was deemed a traitor and a thief and was sentenced to hang.
Thankfully, the executioner was unused to hanging tiny halflings, and got the length of the drop wrong. Rather than snapping her neck, she permanently injured her throat and vocal cords, resulting in a nasty cough and a ludicrously raspy voice for someone her size.
Having survived the hanging and played dead, Magpie was saved by her few remaining friends and went to exile under an assumed name.
By adventuring, she hopes to find allies and resources to weed out corruption in the land.
(Yeah, I used the name Magpie for a similar character before. I liked the concept so I played it in a game.)
