    Name: Arapegol

    Spoiler: body

    age: 26

    race: Human, mantype mostly, a trace (a quarter at most) elf by descent

    gender: male

    description: tall and slim, with muscular arms and agile legs with strong feet that would never need footwear if they are not available

    racial abilities (limit-4): perceive things in dim light almost twice as well as the usual mantype humans, hides much more easily than the other human people, great agility at climbing beyond normal ability, highly dexterous

    Spoiler: mind

    age: around 25

    skills (anything not general. limit-3): highly proficient at archery, charming easily with skillful songs, knowledge to thrive traveling on water, with devices or vehicles or needing to swim

    Personality: shy at first but bonding with others after exposure to those who are trustworthy

    dislikes: any food not from plants, including fungi like mushrooms, offensive people, and aggressive wild carnivores among the wildlife
    likes: any sweet fruits, nuts of various kinds, salads, vegetable soups, good social times, or solitary time, good music, also gentle animals which he likes to befriend

    backstory: A gang was hired a couple of years ago by a wizard who meant to have the control of one main city continue, in the wake of divisive challengers causing instability to it. Those in the gang had passed tests, that limited their membership to the most agile and athletic in the community. When that was found to not be enough, that wizard selected those most trusted to his cause to carry small powerful artifacts, orbs, or rods, each with defining ability for those using them. And they were trained for supernatural activity. But lately there was more trouble heard of abroad. Some would have to be sent off from that community, for dealing with these things, including Arapegol.

    equipment: Arapegol carries a medallion of exotic metal on him which identifies his order, that appointed gang. He carries a rod, with a glowing tip, freshly acquired and useful for alteration, and an orb, freshly acquired and useful for teleportation. He has his bag of coins on his belt, and carries the bag with the orb, the rod, a few food items, and a blanket adequate for comfort wherever he might stop.

    other: Arapegol is useful for recognizing edibles which grow around the land. He can sing well, skillfully charming others. He can commune with spirits, and know things about places, and things about the past, and have limited ability to know some things yet to come.

    Arapegol left that main city mostly under control with the supervision of that wizard, commissioned by him and accompanied by another of the appointed gang, a slightly younger though large and wider man, in their travel out to where the main road went by the primal forest of deep dark spaces where no people had ever gone. Here there had been disappearances lately, and they were actually the second two sent out from the wizard this way. They would both need the devices they were trusted with, to deal with whatever danger they found in that area.

    "Arapegol, we are close enough. We can stop here and watch for what we would see, if it is anything from the forest."

    "Eyriconer, we are still a couple of dozen lithian feet from the nearest trees. We are not here to confront what comes from the forward when any others come this way from the city and pass by closer. We need to do that ahead of them. We both have devices for dealing with this, which we have been supplied with. Let us have the rods out, to be ready, and draw closer."

    They both had the rods with the glowing tips out, ready for what they might find. They came close by the outer trees of this primal forest. Very suddenly a great tentacle whipped out and around Eyriconer, and he was promptly pulled in to the dark spaces among the closely growing trees before either of them could do anything. Arapegol quickly aimed his rod, waving it just before aiming as he called out, "Etera! Fonalonchar! Everon! Carazaam!" He aimed low right where he had seen the tentacle that held his companion withdraw into the space there. A fiery missile shot out into that space. There was a gasp like a noise. Then he noticed movement in the darkness there within, and there was noticeable smoke.

    @GodlyD&D;

    better, but you just need a better description.
    we have no idea what your character looks like other than tall thin a strong with tough feet doesn't really give much you can visualize.
    we need more meet on that description. we need to fatten that thing up.
    what is your hair color? how long is it? how tall are you really? how is your skin? any scars? would you describe yourself has handsome? what is your eye color? what is your usual outfit? and more.
    these are things that aren't included in your description.

    as I said, looking at other people's characters' might help you understand what people look for.

    Is everyone in the same city/tavern? Do we have to be close to one another for the switch to happen?

    yes, you have to be close
    and I was expecting everyone to be close by.

    we are not gonna do the swap immediately though, so you have some time.
    the plan might change a little.
    everyone make 1-2 random NPCs and we'll see if we'll use them or not

    Will Klara's summons (like the imp) be considered NPC's for the purposes of what we're maybe doing or do they need to be independent characters still following the same rules as the initial characters?

    The latter.
    but you don't need to bother with a backstory or other sections.
    feel free to right them out in a google docs or something before submitting.
