ok @Heartbroken @Klavier this is my dnd char so far!
Placeholder name is Anastasia, will probably be that if she ends up a girl hh
She grew up in a small village in a loving infernis (tiefling) family. They're kind of estranged from the rest of the village because racism, parents are hardworking but kind of poor, basic peasant life. Ana notices from a pretty young age that other kids aren't allowed to play with her often, that her parents often get the short end of the stick in the village, yada yada. She also notices that when she does 'good', people treat her a little better. This becomes the main pattern in her life; always doing good for others, forgetting herself in the process, to prove that infernis can be good and aren't devilspawn hhh
When she gets a little older it becomes clear that she's smart and curious, wanting to learn more and more. Her parents know they can't give her what she needs and decide when she's 11 to sign her up for convent life, where she will be able to learn to read and write and study to her hearts' content. Ana is very hyped to go, it's not at all a 'we hate our daughter so we're sending her away' thing
Sooo from age 11 up to two months before the campaign starts she lives in the convent. The convent is built in an old small fortress & called the Convent of Reclaimed Vigil, the Vigil for short. It's a convent dedicated to the whole pantheon of gods in our world (Ellerion) and it functions largely as a normal convent would, but with a bit less Christian-strictness and a bit more monster hunting hhh. There's like a special branch of sisters in the convent, the Warden Sisters, and it's their holy mission to slay monsters, keep up wards, etc etc.
Ana is not very interested in becoming a Warden Sister, it's too much gore for her, she faints at the sight of blood. But the convent also has a reliquary tower where they archive / keep (dangerous) artifacts away from society. This is something she's super interested in, so over the course of ten years she works towards a position as an archivist in the convent! She tries being a nurse first because of her conviction about doing good and helping others, but with her being so squeamish it doesn't work out.
In her time in the convent she grows super close with two peers, and they form a friendgroup of three; Yselle, Leonie and Ana. I've also written out personalities for the friends but this is getting super long already so I'll leave it out hh, but important to know; Leonie and Ana get in a relationship as they grow older.
Ok ok that's most of the backstory, then the events leading up to the start of the campaign:
A new artifact arrives for safekeeping. It's locked away in the reliquary tower, but strange things start happening after it's arrival. The sick don't heal well, there's more monster/undead sightings, wards fall apart when they shouldn't, etc. Just weird stuff all around. Ana feels like its her responsibility to do something about it, so she does what she does best; starts digging into books, trying to find out whatever is going on. But she doesn't know too much about the artefact, has only seen it for a brief second, so she tries asking the prioress for access to it. She gets denied and for a while she accepts it. But misfortune keeps striking the convent and Ana is sure it's because of the artefact, so she decides one day to be rebellious (which she never is) and go look at the artefact to figure out what's up.
She steals keys, gains access to it and tries to take a look at it. But when she does, the artefact / amulet almost seems to reach out to hear and she's enthralled by it. She touches it, which is obviously the worst thing she could've done, and it forms a mouth and bites her. It hurts a lot, so she staggers away towards the infirmary and blacks out.
As she wakes up she feels there's something wrong for sure. Her throat hurts super bad o: So she goes to the kitchen for water. No matter how much water she drinks, the thirst doesn't get better, u can see where this is going...
Leonie works in the kitchens and is the first one to find her. Without knowing what is going on Ana bites her and kills her ): uh oh, she's a vampire and the lesbian relationship is doomed, who would've thought!! hhh
She runs away from the convent and lives alone for a while. Two months after transforming the campaign starts!!
