I will write your dnd character backstory, lore, and origin story
DM and Story Teller
About this Gig
Hi, I'm Cuban Santa. I've spent years both behind the DM screen and rolling dice as a player, so I know the difference between a backstory that's fun to read and one that's actually fun to play. Too many character backstories get written once and never referenced again after session one. Mine are built to survive contact with a real campaign.
What you get:
Every backstory is built around your character concept, your campaign setting, and the tone you want. I ask the right questions up front so what comes back sounds like your character, not a generic template.
Depending on your package, you can get:
- A custom backstory sized to fit your needs
- Ideals, bonds, and flaws written in proper 5e format
- Plot hooks your DM can actually use
- NPC connections tied into your character's past
- A family tree or timeline for deeper lore
- Full commercial use rights if you need them
Why work with me:
I'm not a generic freelance writer guessing at fantasy tropes. I know what makes a backstory land at the table: motivation your DM can build around, flaws that create roleplay moments, and a voice that fits how you actually want to play the character.
Language:

Delivery style preference
Please inform the freelancer of any preferences or concerns regarding the use of AI tools in the completion and/or delivery of your order.
FAQ
Do I need to already have a character built?
No. If you've got a full concept, great, I'll work with it. If you've only picked a class and race, that's enough to start too. Just fill out the questionnaire with whatever you know, and I'll fill in the gaps.
Is the Basic package written by AI?
Basic is AI-assisted. I take your intake answers and use an AI model to generate a first draft, then I review and tighten it before delivery. Standard and Premium are written by me directly, with AI used minimally, if at all, for a more personal and polished result.
Can you match my campaign's existing lore?
Yes. If you give me details about your world, your DM's homebrew rules, or NPCs I should tie into, I'll build the backstory to fit seamlessly. This is included at no extra cost on Standard and Premium.
Do I own the backstory once it's delivered?
You can use it freely for personal tabletop play at no extra cost. If you need it for a commercial project, such as a paid podcast, published module, or monetized content, grab the Commercial Use add-on so you have full rights.
How many revisions do I get?
Basic includes 1 revision, Standard includes 2, and Premium includes 3. Need more? Additional revisions are available as an add-on.
What if I need it fast?
Extra Fast Delivery is available for every package if you need your backstory sooner than the standard turnaround time.
What information do you need from me?
Race, class, and subclass; your campaign setting; the tone you're going for (heroic, comedic, grimdark, etc.); and anything you want tied in or avoided. The more detail you give me, the better the fit.
Can I request changes to the tone or direction partway through?
Minor adjustments are covered under your included revisions. A full change in direction or concept may count as a new order, so it helps to nail down the concept before we start.
