| You grew up the son of a bard, but decided such a profession was lacking in excitement. After much hard training, (if you never ride my bike again, it'll be too soon) you finally became a mighty Fighter. As luck would have it, as you were passing through the land of Glameroth, you stopped at the inn in the quiet hamlet of Bobcat, and heard the local cook talking about the ancient ruin that the town had (perhaps ill-advisedly) been built next to, and the fantastic Amber Idol of Grimtooth that was purported to be hidden there. Without bothering to ask why nobody had managed to recover it already, you set out on your very first quest. At first it was a real breeze, but then you wandered into a room totally full of kobolds, plus a shoggoth, which is weird because you would have figured they'd have killed each other. They made a pretty good attempt at killing you, though. But, unwilling to let that keep you from glory, you gritted your teeth and wielded your entrenching tool, and cut your way through the hordes of skeletons that stood between you and your goal. At last you found the lair of Devil Barbarian Goldthwait, who quite unexpectedly turned out to be your long-lost roommate, but you killed the jerk anyway. And thus was the land freed from tyranny, and you earned yourself a fat reward!
