Adventure Log

Description: Coming in at about 5'6 and 134 Jin is a generally healthy looking teenage half elf who looks like he does well in whatever work or job he does. He keeps his appearance and clothes generally clean and neat but doesn't go out of his way to make himself look perfect. You might catch him chilling out playing his Lute, humming a tune or maybe even making some musicial notations. He's not royalty but he's not poor either.

Personality: Jin is a free spirited but kind young man. You need someone to help you out, he's there often pulling his fair share. You need a shoulder to cry on, he'll sing you a gentle tune to try and make you happy again. He does have his temperamental side however, you mess with him or his friends and he'll make sure things happens then play a taunting tune. He can forgive you for a minor mess with but do mind your jokes and pranks on him because he's believes in fair play. Jin loves to perform with an upbeat style and overall just wants people to get up and enjoy what life has for them but he's not one to take shit for long and while he'll only kill someone in self-defense he'll do his best to just to knock them out or let them run away with their tails between their legs but if it either the life of him and his friends versus them and there's no way to avoid it sorry player they and he come first.

Backstory: A local teenage musician of Waterdeep, Jin was born and raised in the Southern Ward and is a rather decently known Flute and Lute player in the Southern Ward but is also known to travel between the wards playing music for whatever tavern/hall will allow him to play. He tends to avoid the rougher parts of town and make's sure not to bother the elites or become a nuisance to the city guard.

Updated Story - Winter's Splendor:

Jin's musical knowledge managed to net him a ticket into an upcoming party at the Cassalanter Villa being hired as a backup instrumentalist for Aria Cavatina, the Angel of The Sword Coast, a very popular aasimar soprano. At the party Jin was enraptured by Aria but just as the singer was about to start a second song, something attacked her and caused her to fall forward. Jin being quick, rushed to catch the singer and managed to do so. However what he didn't realize was that attacking Aria was an imp and he was in range for an attack himself fortunately for him a swordswoman named Maltrise managed to bat the imp away from Aria and after Jin doused the imp with a sleeping spell. After binding the imp and checking Aria, the city guard rushed in to secure the scene. They deputized Jin, Maltrise and a wizard girl named Aldara to help him figure out where the imp came from. Upon finding a clue in the form of a page of the child's book, Jin managed to lock onto the Cassalanter's youngest daughter Elzerina and note that the girl seemed extremely fidgety. Jin being very polite and soothing suggested that the little girl had let the imp in out of the cold and played with it only for things to get out of hand and trouble to be made. Elzerina couldn't even hold Jin's gentle gaze before she bawled her little heart out admitting to what had happened saying that the book had been a gift and that imps had appeared and although one was nice, the other was a troublemaker and had scared her. Lady Cassalanter immediately comforted her daughter while Lord Cassalanter became angry at the imp and attempted to squeeze information out of it only for the imp to cut him and try to take off by turning into a spider, fortunately it got smashed by a foot before it got away. Jin asked Lady Cassalanter if he and the others could get access to the children's room to see if there were more imps to deal with and was given permission and escorted there. In the children's room they didn't find anything suspicious until Aldara familiar started yowing at the toy trunk, Jin went over figuring that the imp had hid in there, tapped it and commanded the imp to come out. The imp dressed up as a soldier revealed that it was on a mission to figure out a puzzle that was drawn in the children book and in the story itself. Taking several minutes, the group managed to figure out the puzzle was a ritual circle and using the children's toys made the small circle causing more imps to appear. However there was one problem, the ritual had to be done somewhere else, namely an altar in the City of the Dead, the local cemetery, where a statue of a winged female was. Updating the captain of the guard of this development and taking the imps and toys over there, Jin solved the puzzle properly however the bigger fiend that popped out killed all the imps after saying that they were supposed to bring the young girl and instead would take the group's souls. Not one to accept that, the group fought the bigger fiend and managed to defeat it almost losing Aldara due to Jin running out of magic during the fight and being unable to heal her. Fortunately, the commotion managed to attract someone who helped destroy the ritual circle using holy water and get aid for Aldara and help her recover. Back at the party, the captain of the city guard rewards Jin and the others for their assistance, Aria brings the party back to full swing and the Cassalanter also thank them for their aid and the tiefling butler slips them all a large pouch of gold coins for their work. Now marked as a hero of Midwinter and inspired by Aria, Jin continues playing in Waterdeep wondering what his next verse will be about.

Adventure League Log

I am a shadow, the true self, I will expose you for the evil that you are and make you confess it

Background: No one quite knows where Shadow came from or what he is, His appearance makes him seem like he's a dark elf or at least has dark elf blood in him however something about his smug attitude and confidence plus the fact he doesn't flinch in bright light says that his body is used to being out in the daylight however Shadow loves the nighttime and the darkness that comes with it which allows him to sneak around and do things. A born rebel Shadow lurks in the night to fight against those who do evil and expose them for the crimes they commit.

People first started becoming aware of him after he left behind a message telling a noble family that he was intending on exposing them for what they are and that by the next morning all would know who they truly are. During that night an attack occurred and by morning light, the noble wounded by some sort of mental magic came out and confessed to anyone who was listening that he had done various crimes including having a hand in several deaths and begging to be taken away and locked up if only to keep him safe from his shadow. When asked what he meant by his shadow, he claimed that during the night a shadowy figure who looked like him appeared to him and stated it was a shadow of himself then proceeded to order him to do things that would expose his crimes and when he resisted the being attacked him using dark weapons and powers that upon being knocked down made him so afraid that he begged to be spared only for the being to demand that the noble confesses the next morning or face the same torture the next night and the noble agreed. The shadow then stated the noble better follow through or he will be tortured then vanished with a warning that all is seen by those smiling within the shadows. The man kept claiming he was seeing smiles in the shadows but no one else saw them and the nobleman was deemed sick and taken away.

Not many knew who this shadow was but then a bard of the golden grin sang the story and stated that Shadow was one of theirs and that as long as you didn't have crimes that you wanted to hide, you didn't have to fear the shadow coming to you and making you confess. When asked what Shadow was, the bard would sing this tale, born when those of shadows touched the love of light, the being known as Shadow was born when a warrior of the raven queen fell in love with a maiden of light, although a warning of when light and darkness unite was told this warning was ignored by those in love and the result was the shadow touched being who would take the name Shadow. Shunned by most who could not understand the power he was touched by and the young man quickly learned the art of not being seen and lurked in the shadows. When his magical capabilities scared those who feared darkness and sought to get rid of him and his family. The family blessed by the Raven Queen and other divine forces managed to escape death with the aid of a Mage ally who had been tutoring the young shadowblood in magic (Fateful moment,) but the young man seeking to destroy the tyrant who tried to kill his family called upon the Raven Queen and asked to be her warrior and bring those who do evil to justice. The Raven Queen gave the young shadowblood a weapon to eat the hearts of those who do evil and the grin that crossed the shadowblood face was the same grin that hides in shadows. When asked where the shadow was now, the bard would hum in thought and then sing a song pondering this question and then singing that the shadow followed the instructions of the Raven Queen who pointed him in directions to go, and last the bard knew Shadow was heading for the deep wilds of Eastern Wynandir to face one maybe two who is evil when asked who this evil was the bard just pondered as he had yet to receive that chapter of Shadow's story and hoped to meet up with him again.

Shiro Hakuryu, Human Life Cleric | Sheet | Adventure League Log

---

Backstory: Shiro Hakuryu was born to a Joydancer a priestess of Lliira, The lady of Joy. It is not known who Shiro's father is nor did anyone want to claim that his conception occurred during a party set up by the cry of joy temple in Hill's Edge. Despite having no father in his life, Shiro was raised right. His mother was a good woman and a strong faith-driven priestess who thought the best way to enjoy life was to celebrate it. However, the celebration would be cut short when Shiro was about 10, a tragic 'accident' caused Shiro's mother to 'fall' from a high window to the ground below and die upon impact. The heads of the temple were horrified at this and instantly took charge of Shiro's care and upbringing telling him good things saying that his mother was now dancing with Lliira. Shiro despite being sad that his mother was no longer with him continued to do what he could to help out the temple and lived there for the rest of his childhood mastering skills in healing and became an official acolyte at 16 and started a journey to explore the world and helping common people wherever he could (mostly being an errand boy with various messages) and actually helped save a town called Goldenfield from a hill giant attack. But after delivering a message to a nutty wizard in Waterdeep who released his pet dragon at them out of spite for a 'lack of respect' Shiro decided he was done being treated like an errand boy and went off trying to find his way back home.

Continued Story:

Shiro doesn't remember much after that, but from what he gathered is that he was recruited and magically encouraged/charmed/brainwashed into helping some Red Wizards of Thay and their undead armies but broken free from their ongoing charm spell and during a particular battle at Myth Nantar managed to get out of their clutches and join up with Captain Zehira Deryan Turmish Merchant, and a bunch of others who had fought against the Wizards of Thay. During his time with the wizard however he seemed to gain some training in combat and learn a few wizard style tricks including being able to summon a weapon to his hand and cast the Shield Spell, the Magic Missile Spell and the Feather Fall spell along with being able to charge thunder magic into his weapons. He hopes to eventually make it back home but for the time being he's paying off his 'debt' to the captain by being a cleric for her ship and crew. (really it's not a debt but he feels like he owes her for giving him the chance to get out from under the Red Wizards)
