Your Player's Backstory
Does your character(s) have a backstory not covered by OutSpark? Mine does:
Edward Warlock comes from a wealthy fighter bloodline. Even at a young age, he was always been disgusted with how brash his father and brother's bloody and brutal their battle tactics were, so he swayed away from the harsh techniques of his family to learn magic from a disgruntled old bum of a wizard who shall remain nameless.
One day his brother challenged him to battle (after noticing a huge lack in Edward not showing up for planned training), and in a last ditch effort to dodge a fatal strike from his overzealous sibling, Edward charred his brother's hand with magical fire. This action revealed to his father that he had indeed studied magic, and he was cast out of his family's home and the wealth that came along with it.
Still a youth (and now broke), Edward began to live in the streets and the alleyways with the bum wizard that trained him earlier. Eventually the bum died from sickness and hunger, but not before giving Mr. Warlock more teachings of magic. Edward became severely depressed, and he turned to drinking to curb his feelings and emotions.
Eventually he returned home, where his father again challenged him to battle his brother. In a drunken rage, Warlock froze his brother to death, prompting his father to attack him as well. Edward was barely able to stave off his father's attacks, but he was severely scarred on his back and his palms are permanently marked with sword cuts. He now wears gloves to cover up the ordeal and full mage garb to hide the markings on his backside.
He still continues to drink, and he now travels Isya as a drunk teacher and killer for hire. He has been known to attack his students and steal money and items whenever possible, and is currently banned from entering Roumen and the Scaffold Execution Ground for a long stem of petty crimes that he has not answered to. He has been known to fart in battle to throw off opponents and urinate and take number 2's on defeated rivals, or the current map for that matter. He never let's anyone touch his hands, and is never seen without full mage gear on, unless he's at a whore house having sex. He seems to have large collection of rare and powerful artifacts and weapons, although no one really knows how he got them. It is rumored that he returns to family's estate (in secret) when they are away on campaigns to pillage the home....
