It seems like you have some backstory for the team already set? Is it written down anywhere that I could take a look at it?
It isn't. We talked it up over the course of a few days, we weren't sure we were going to be allowed to play as "Team Evil" so we wanted a good presentation, with the why & how.
are we choosing chinese-sounding names, by the way? With our Wei inspiration, I thought it might be a thing, but I'm more than happy to chose something fantastic as opposed to historic.
I was thinking something babylonian sounding actually. Our connection to the Wei kingdom was strictly spiritual for game, moreso I was interested in defining the TYPE of evil, that we had going on. I wanted sophisticated, and disciplined, even if violent, but not raving mad men as characters in the group.
However, as you history so far if I'm getting you is something like: I'm of celestial descent, but think diffrerently and have my own tenets of right/wrong and most of all about what is "just/honorable". So much so that on my journey to find myself I've found myself a monster, and amongst monsters, I have purpose and peace. Or what not.
The cool thing about that is in my is in my head a thaumarai, is a gish from the rokugan. So you having an asian sounding name fits the idea in my head already, but if you had an angel sounding name that'd work too.
Hmm, I'd be interested in the answer to this too. My current character concept's current name is "Squeaky" but that can be changed if it's out of theme.
My characters name is
Rek-fel (The Mind Render) and was initially based fully on this guy:
Greel, the mind rakerMy character has a grand scheme in mind and wants these guys to manage armies one day. If your name is "sqeeky" Thats your name. However, he'd end up giving you a title or something to make it sound more Majestic or whatever to the followers.

he offered to teach the bat how to say no so effectively no one could ever push him around again.
Sounds really fucking awesome.
