Kratos, village elder: "So you're leaving? I can foresee that you will have exciting adventures, meet interesting people, and eventually die a violent death."
I am a Stygian, a skeletal humanoid race. I am an expert markstygian and a skilled armor user. My name is Ivan Rithsut. I have set off from my home town in search of adventure and fame. Many a year I have trained, perfecting my skills, preparing for ettins and dragons. I have taken with me my elemental crossbow and bolts. Soon my adventure will begin.
A Few Quick Notes About Stygians
Stygians are a skeletal humanoid race that takes residence in the mountains. Rumors are they are all that remains of the dwarven race but it has been discarded as stygians are much too tall, and the popular theory is that stygians killed the dwarves off. A stygian has veins running through from its head down to the claws at the end of each finger, which inject a paralyzing liquid into a victim when puncturing skin. It is used for self-defense when disarmed. The only way to weaken a stygian is to chop its arms of, which renders it entirely defenseless, and as it is made out of bone, it can be easily disposed of. Getting close enough to disarm (heh, pun) them is hard enough, though, as they have a wide array of magical weapons, including battle axes that freeze an opponent to short swords that seem to be red hot without really being hot at all. Also, another problem is that Stygians don't actually have hands, just animal-like skeletal paws.

At the moment I have not assembled a team, so now is the time to make requests.
