I will write a dnd character backstory with hooks your dm can use
DnD writer and veteran DM for backstories NPCs and one shot adventures
About this Gig
A backstory should do two jobs: make the character feel real to you, and hand your DM threads to pull on. Most backstories only do the first. Mine do both.
Send me what your table already knows (name, ancestry, class, setting, the tone you want) and I write a story that fits it: an origin, the event that set them on the road, how they act at the table, and the people they left behind who could walk back in. Every package ends with hooks for your DM: named people, places and unfinished business, ready for next session.
WHAT YOU GET
Basic: about 800 words, personality in play, 2 DM hooks
Standard: about 1,500 words, 3 people from their past, ideals, bonds and flaws for your sheet, 5 DM hooks
Premium: about 2,500 words, DM secrets sheet, 2 optional future arcs, formatted PDF
HOW IT WORKS
Answer a few questions, I write, you review. Revisions are included in every package. Rough notes are fine; I will ask if I need more.
I run a long homebrew campaign and published it as a fantasy series. Your character gets that level of care.
D&D 5e (2014 and 2024), Pathfinder 2e, or system-agnostic.

FAQ
What do you need from me?
Name, ancestry and class, your setting, the tone, and anything already established at the table. If you have no name yet, that is fine.
Will it fit my DM's campaign?
Yes. Tell me the setting and any facts in play and I build on them. Your DM gets a hooks section written for them.
Can you write for a character who already has some history?
Yes. Send what exists and I will keep it intact and fill the gaps.
How many revisions do I get?
Basic 1, Standard 2, Premium 3. Small fixes after that are usually free; large rewrites are a gig extra.
Can it be dark or tragic?
Yes, at a fantasy-novel level. Tell me the content level you want. No sexual content, no real people.
