[G-Flex]

I am desperately confused here. Why did you post this if you don't have anything to post yet?

[IronyOwl]

Yeah, I don't really understand what's going on here. Good communication is pretty vital to making a custom rpg thingy, and doubly so when you need suggestions. :x

[Cheesoburgor]

the idea is that you make yourself a character and then if i like it i start the story with your super awesome character

i hope i made myself clear here
Edit:i changed the description a bit

Name: Skrackle The Trumpet Gunner
Race: Golem/construct
Backstory: Skrackle was made by a mad golemancer who decided that she needed a bodyguard. Taking the skull of a fallen giant from the nearby battlegrounds and having recently invented a sort of musical gun powered by notes, she combined those two pieces and made Skrackle. The skull golem served the mad golemancer for many years, but the wars soon came to her doorstep and the golem was not fast enough to save her. Distraught about its existence, it started to wander the plains in search of purpose. Skrackle is great with its trumpet gun, being able to fire devestating tones towards its foes. It might not be the best at hitting the target, but if the foe gets close Skrackle can still pack a mean punch.
Inventory: The Trumpet Gun. Nothing else.

Let's see here. For convenience I'm copying the above format.

Name: Ayn Rand
Race: Human

Spoiler: Backstory (click to show/hide)

Rand was born Alisa Zinov'yevna Rosenbaum (Russian: Алиса Зиновьевна Розенбаум) on February 2, 1905, to a bourgeois family living in Saint Petersburg. She was the eldest of the three daughters of Zinovy Zakharovich Rosenbaum and Anna Borisovna Rosenbaum, largely non-observant Jews. Rand's father was a successful pharmacist, eventually owning a pharmacy and the building in which it was located. Rand was twelve at the time of the Russian Revolution of 1917, during which her sympathies were with Alexander Kerensky. Rand's family life was disrupted by the rise of the Bolshevik party under Vladimir Lenin. Her father's pharmacy was confiscated by the Bolsheviks, and the family fled to the Crimea, which was initially under the control of the White Army during the Russian Civil War. She later recalled that while in high school she determined that she was an atheist and that she valued reason above any other human attribute. After graduating from high school in the Crimea, at 16 Rand returned with her family to Petrograd (the new name for Saint Petersburg), where they faced desperate conditions, on occasion nearly starving.

After the Russian Revolution, universities were opened to women, allowing Rand to be in the first group of women to enroll at Petrograd State University, where she studied in the department of social pedagogy, majoring in history. At the university she was introduced to the writings of Aristotle and Plato, who would be her greatest influence and counter-influence, respectively. A third figure whose philosophical works she studied heavily was Friedrich Nietzsche. Able to read French, German and Russian, Rand also discovered the writers Fyodor Dostoevsky, Victor Hugo, Edmond Rostand, and Friedrich Schiller, who became her perennial favorites.

Along with many other "bourgeois" students, Rand was purged from the university shortly before graduating. However, after complaints from a group of visiting foreign scientists, many of the purged students were allowed to complete their work and graduate, which Rand did in October 1924. She subsequently studied for a year at the State Technicum for Screen Arts in Leningrad. For one of her assignments, she wrote an essay about the actress Pola Negri, which became her first published work.

By this time she had decided her professional surname for writing would be Rand, possibly as a Cyrillic contraction of her birth surname, and she adopted the first name Ayn, either from a Finnish name or from the Hebrew word עין (ayin, meaning "eye").

In the fall of 1925, Rand was granted a visa to visit American relatives. Rand was so impressed with the skyline of Manhattan upon her arrival in New York Harbor that she cried what she later called "tears of splendor". Intent on staying in the United States to become a screenwriter, she lived for a few months with relatives in Chicago, one of whom owned a movie theater and allowed her to watch dozens of films for free. She then set out for Hollywood, California.

Initially, Rand struggled in Hollywood and took odd jobs to pay her basic living expenses. A chance meeting with famed director Cecil B. DeMille led to a job as an extra in his film, The King of Kings, and to subsequent work as a junior screenwriter. While working on The King of Kings, she met an aspiring young actor, Frank O'Connor; the two were married on April 15, 1929. Rand became an American citizen in 1931. Taking various jobs during the 1930s to support her writing, Rand worked for a time as the head of the costume department at RKO Studios. She made several attempts to bring her parents and sisters to the United States, but they were unable to acquire permission to emigrate.

Inventory: Head full of ideas, like in the OP.

I second the choice of Ayn Rand, although I do debate your choice of race there.

Name: St. Gertrude of Nivelles
Race: Human/Catholic

Spoiler: Backstory (click to show/hide)

One day, when she was about ten years of age, her father invited Dagobert I and some noblemen to a banquet. When on this occasion she was asked to marry the son of the Duke of Austrasia she indignantly replied that she would marry neither him nor any other man, but that Jesus Christ alone would be her bridegroom.

After the death of her father in 640, her mother Itta, following the advice of Saint Amand, Bishop of Maestricht, erected a double monastery at Nivelles. She appointed her daughter Gertrude as its first abbess, while she herself lived there as a nun, assisting the young abbess by her advice. Among the numerous pilgrims that visited the monastery of Nivelles, there were the two brothers St. Foillan and St. Ultan, both of whom were Irish monks who had lived c.633-651 in East Anglia, and were now on their way from Rome to Peronne, where their brother St. Furseus, lay buried. Gertrude and her mother gave them a tract of land called Fosse on which they built a monastery. Ultan was made superior of the new house, while Follian remained at Nivelles, instructing the monks and nuns in Holy Scripture, and was later murdered there by bandits.

After the death of Itta in 652, Gertrude entrusted the interior management of her monastery to a few pious nuns, and appointed some capable monks to attend to the outer affairs, in order that she might gain more time for the study of Holy Scripture, which she almost knew by heart. The large property left by her mother she used for building churches, monasteries and hospices. At the age of thirty-two she became so weak through her continuous abstinence from food and sleep that she found it necessary to resign her office.

If you want something more fictional than somebody from the real world...

Spoiler: Portrait (click to show/hide)

Name: Thognar
Race: Human

Spoiler: Background (click to show/hide)

Naturally it's impossible that a regular caveman could co-exist with a dinosaur. The times they lived simply don't match up.
Thognar was so disappointed by the fact that he built a pre-historic time machine out of rocks and bits of reed, hurling himself through time to the Cretaceous period.
Needless to say, Gary the Dinosaur was very surprised to have a mammal from 65 million years in the future appear so suddenly, and he had to fight the instinctive urge to immediately eat him.
When Thognar told him there were no dinosaurs in the future, Gary became very upset, and agreed to help find out what happened to his brave people. Now they travel through time together, with every jump bringing a new adventure.

Inventory: Gary the Dinosaur. Time-machine. Loin cloth.
