> _Hey, let's make a character together! Copy this template to your character's Notion page, or fill it out in Google Docs and send it to your DM. They'll love you, I promise. I know because that's me. I'm the DM._ # Ideals, Bonds, and Flaws _Provide, at_ **_minimum_**_, four of each of the following:_ [[Character Flaws]] • [[Character Ideals]] **Bonds** 1. Bond 2. Bond 3. Bond 4. Bond **Flaws** 1. Flaw 2. Flaw 3. Flaw 4. Flaw **Ideals** 1. Ideal 2. Ideal 3. Ideal 4. Ideal # Basics ## Why is your character adventuring? Alternatively, why do they seek money, fame, or treasure? _Do they want to see the world? Are they searching for something? Do they wish to acquire power to use against those that may have wronged them?_ ## Give your DM one or more hooks they can use against you: _Did they anger a local merchant by sabotaging their operation? Are they being hunted by a tribe of Orcs? Do they owe money to a ruthless loan shark?_ ## If your character were to hit level 20, where do you see them? What is their influence on the world? _Did their inventions become the catalyst that sparked an entire industry? Are they the head of the most prestigious university in the realm? Maybe even a god?_ ## Does your character have a secret? (optional) _Are they the forgotten heir of a king? Secretly a vampire? Forced to adventure against their will?_ # Backstory _Spill the beans here. Make it as long or as short as it needs to be, but it should do a good job covering all of the above_
