So, now we just need HHD to finish up his and SMEX to submit his background for my approval and then do his character sheet and we'll be set.

Okay, everyone will roll their own rolls, but I will decide a success or failure. If I suspect any fudging of rolls, then I may enact some form of punishment of a reasonable degree.

That works.

I just made an account on invisible castle so there can be more disclosure.

Yeah, it hasn't sent to me yet either.

I've searched high and-...... well I've searched for more info on Bards, Half-Elves and the Entertainer's background, but I can't find much, so how does this work for a backstory:

Yet to be named was not born of a union of love, but of a passing fancy between an Elvish noblewoman and a traveling priest of Olidammara whom adventured as a Bard, not that either of them new this about each other. At the time she was visiting the royal court he was playing in. He piqued her interest with a mythical tale of Bravado, amused her with his rendition of an Elven melody and enchanted her with a hauntingly beautiful song. He left two days later continuing his aimless journey. Yet to be named's mother soon went back home with her retainer's as she felt ill. After yet to be named's birth, his mother decided to keep him in secrecy as his pure elven blooded half brother was already the official heir to the house's title. A nursemaid claimed him as hers for official records, but he was raised in the palace and taught in the elven arts and magic. When he was 25, he set ought on his own adventure taking only two outfits, enough gold for travel fair and a red silk hat with a golden feather in the trim made for him by the nursemaid. He wound up spending all his money in the first two towns he visited. As it turns out his taste in wines were a tad too expensive, and he didn't know how to budget his gold. Quick to adapt, he began playing music and performing tricks to pay his way through his endeavor. Recently in his campaign to explore more of the world he has seen a few plays credited to his father's name. He yearns to make music wondrous enough to swoon even elven woman, but now he also aspires to be a renowned playwright, along with his original goal to sample life in all regions of the world. He journeys to find the inspiration that will spark his magnum opus and thus follows traveling parties he deems interesting.

The reason he has a half-brother is because his mom used to be married, but her husband was assassinated by Drow when his half-brother was very young. Though none of that affects him. That's all the pure blood's baggage.

It seems our party will end up being composed of-
Golurk the Vigilant, Most Knowledgeable of Twinkers and Eagerest of Host
Cheese the Audacious, Bossest of Dudes, Grower of Magnificent Beards
AlmostDoug the Rambunctious, Almoest of Dougs, Giver of the D and taker of the V
HHDeception the Truthful, Deliverer of Humble, Haughty Deception, Bearer of Fezzes, Bow ties and Sci-Fi
And Me.

That works.

Submit any alterations you'd like for your background bonuses, be they items, skills, or anything else.

Start: Waiting in a line of refugees to enter a heavily guarded town? Travelling on the same wagon that gets attacked? Forced to row for a slaver ship but given their possessions back when pirates board? Contestants or spectators of a combat tournament?

Regardless, my preferred low level enemies are humanoid NPC classes or maybe a slightly higher level creature that we have to work together to defeat.

I thought I get 10 HP + Constitution modifier. I have 14 Con so that's +2?

STR: 9 +1
DEX: 11 +1
CON: 13 +1
INT: 13 +1
WIS: 15 +1
CHA: 12 +1

Sorry for the slow uptake on this, busy busy
