Fydillian (A lupin priest played by Matt)

Fydillian the brave is a lupin of the guardian class of shar-pei. Not much is known about his past, as his first memory is waking up on a beach with a no memory beyond that. Fortunately there was a note left with him explaining his name and race. The note vaguely mentioned a higher purpose and that he would know it when it arrived. The note also left directions to a specific location that was conveniently located nearby. Also mentioned in the note was how good of a boy fydillian was and that he was such a brave boy yes such a brave brave doggo. The location proved to be a church of celestian. Fydillian proved to be a natural at navigation and spent alot of time in the library learning about astronomy and history of this strange place. He also discovered the culinary arts and spent as much time in the kitchen. In his studies he learned of the great meteor brought by Celestian and set out on an adventure to wander his way to finding it.

Gunnar (Human fighter played by Coby)

Gunnar joined the party when they rescued him from a life of servitude and watery home improvement beneath the evil sahuagin. His past, for the moment, remains a mystery, though his travels with the party gained him experience enough to become a formidable fighter.

“Leisure Suit” Lenny (Elven Mortician and Insurance Claims Adjustor played by Matt)

The party first met Lenny as he was assisting the Adventure Capitalists with preparing Malag’s body for a return to the living following a tragic workplace accident involving hungry zombies. Given the frequency of the party’s claims on their insurance, Lenny was assigned to shadow the party and write a report on their adherence to applicable adventure guidelines and safety regulations.

Malag (A half-orc fighter played by Chris)

Abandoned as a child, Malag was raised on the streets of Rookroost by local gangs. First unarmed, and then with the sword, Malag rose to be a top enforcer for a group of petty criminals. When the gang was found after pulling a job, Malag escaped alone into the night.

With his cruel nature, and quick fists, he learned quickly that a lot of coin can be made as a bounty hunter. While exploring an abandoned temple near Restenford, Malag was killed by a horde of ghouls. When the Adventure Capitalist’s Guild resurrected him, they unknowingly left a curse, condemning Malag to live a pseudo-life of undeath, craving living (or dead) brains. After learning of their error, the Adventure Capitalist’s Guild were able to successfully remove the curse, which included weeks of isolation.

Seb (A halfling thief played by Chris)

Seb hails from Rookroost, where he’s lived all of his life. When he was very young, Seb’s mother became bedridden, growing more sick daily. After she passed, his father, Pimzin, began to take seriously his thieves guild duties. Those duties changed him, however. The once good-natured, calm halfling became cold, methodical, and distant. When Seb was 13, his father left their small apartment, and never returned. Seb’s heard that Pimzin has risen high within the guild, but recent upheaval among the thieves guild of Rookroost has caused some doubt.

$$ Norsk (A half-orc life force repossessor played by Brian)

Orphaned at a young age, Norsk never really knew his parents and grew up on the streets of Rookroost, learning life’s lessons the hard way – the strong take what they want, and the ruthless get what they need. Norsk did a favor for a merchant by removing a rival merchant, and got enough coin from this job to set out on his own.

Elmond (A Fighter/Cleric/Magic-User played by Dean)

I am the true-born son of Elister Brooks and Nora Brooks (formerly Alden). Unlike my bastard older brother I was grudgingly accepted by my mother’s family. Upon coming of age, I was instructed to find my brother and prevent him from besmirching the reputation of the family. I found I enjoyed travelling. In my travels I have not encountered any signs of my brother. I guess this is good for me since I’m technically achieving the assigned goal. I guess I will just enjoy my travels and keep my slightly pointed ears open.

How do I create a character?

Creating a character can be a daunting process, especially in 1st edition AD&D, and doubly so if you don’t have the books as a reference. I will outline the basics here to help you at least begin to understand what you need to know. If you don’t have your own copy of the Player’s Handbook, The OSRIC rules are close enough to get you started. (Warning, very large PDF at that link). You should also read the house rules.

Amathar (Gray elf magic-user played by Jeff)

Amathar the Grey is in exile from the Grey Elves (He does not elaborate on this point, though.). He wants to continue his research among the mammals of Oerth, though, so he has wandered to Rookroost with little coin, but made friends with several associates. (Rumble and Skean). They have a relationship to seek out spell components for Amathar and in return, Amathar will help them when he can. Rumble focuses on herbs and rare plants and Skean focuses on small trinkets for Amathar.
