Grimoire of Characters

This is a collection of characters I have played in various TTRPGs (mainly Dungeons & Dragons). They have all been very fun to play, which is why I wish to chronicle them. Additionally, there will be some characters I am yet to play: I have many ideas, so it is useful to have somewhere to log them.

Tabletop RPGs are really a collaborative effort, so if you had a hand in creating any of the fun times I had with these characters, I thank you deeply. <3

After finding out about suspicious goings-on, they follow a shady character to a hidden basement and discover a dreafdul force controlling the archives from underground. Tricked into a pact, they now act as the mortal hand of The Earl of Bones, a dreadful undead force lurking in the darkness.
