    Since I still know nothing about the Witcher I am making stuff up as I go along. What I have so far:
    Character Creation:

    Name: Varrin
    Gender: Male
    Sexual Orientation: Straight*
    As far as Varrin knows futas exist only in certain stories for adults that he has read in books and heard from bards. If he were to encounter an actual futa... he'll figure it out then. In the mean time he is interested only in women.
    Race: Human
    Homeland: Temeria?

    Family and Background:
    Phillip (Father) – a shrewd and ruthless noble from an old but minor house. Over the years he has established quite a few contacts with various other people, making his family quite dangerous despite their minor rank
    Angelica (Mother) – 20 years younger than her husband, a trophy wife who spent the first few years of their marriage giving birth to their children. People say that with age she has grown even more beautiful than she was at the time of her marriage.
    The two married out of convenience – Angelica's family needed the money while Phillip was interested in the few lands her family owned

    Isabella (Eldest sister) – a powerful sorceress who is into femdom. Anyone seeking to bed her better be good at sucking fake cocks and taking it up the ass. Which is why Varrin avoids her as much as possible – a task made easy by the fact she spends most of her time learning magic
    Madeline (Second sister) – unlike her older sister who prefers the power of magic, Madeline prefers the power of deception and manipulation. Varrin describes her like this: She can convince a man to fuck her right in front of his wife, and then convince the wife that the whole thing was her idea all along.
    Both daughters have inherited their mother's looks
    Gabriel (Older brother) – the typical noble heir, raised to inherit the family's unimpressive wealth. Has a few merchants' daughters trying to seduce and marry him so that they can get a noble's title. He doesn't seem particularly interested in any of them

    As the youngest child Varrin has always had the least responsibilities and the most freedom – and he plans to make the most of it.

    Goals:
    Short-term he wants to travel and see the world, and seduce many pretty girls. Long-term he has not decided yet.

    Skills (Five points):
    Sword and Dagger – Varrin's preferred combat style involves using a sword and a dagger, but he is just as comfortable using two swords, or two daggers
    Throwing Weapons – he prefers daggers, but has some experience with pretty much all thrown weapons
    Stealth – skilled at moving around undetected
    Sleight of Hand – skilled at doing stuff with his hands undetected, such as stealing a key from a person's pockets, switching two seemingly-identical items... or groping a woman's ass while making it seem like it was someone else who did it
    Seduction

    Equipment (Five points):
    A Steel sword
    2 Steel daggers
    A set of 4 Steel throwing daggers
    A dark brown cloak
    High-Quality clothes (plus a spare set)

    Money: 1000 crowns

    Spells: None

    Witcher Signs: None

    Forbidden (Any kinks you don't want your character involved with):
    Male-on-male
    Gore
    Vore
    Diapers
    Vomit
    Amputation
    Pregnancy
    Scat

    As far as Watersports go Varrin is not really interested, but might be persuaded to give it a try – depends on the woman and whether he is on the giving or the receiving end...


    Names to be decided later, as well as a few other things, mainly his goals. “Have lots of sex with lots of women” is a start, but is far from enough.

    And yes, I am making a male character for a change. Shocking, I know.

    It's honestly already the biggest plot twist in the whole adventure.

    History:
    Bastard daughter of King Bran Tuirseach and one of his concubines, Signy grew up with her half-brother Svanrige and cousins Hjalmar and Cerys an Craite. Focusing more on becoming a great warrior of the Skellige isles and hunter than a lady of Clan Tuirseach, Signy travelled the island for adventure, joining many expeditions to fight all manner of nasty creatures from harpies to trolls. The exploits of the King's feisty bastard daughter were soon heard in every tavern on the isles.

    Growing bored of her own home land, Signy travelled to the main land to see what adventure she could find there...

    They both look great to me. It'll be up to you if you want to play a warrior, or a mage basically.

    Thanks, I'm unsure who to pick now.
    Nice, I like her.
    Yeah... I think I will start off with the elf and depending on how things go I might want to switch over to the Skelliger girl.

    I'm debating editing her magic before the game starts. I can't think of what all the slots should be or what ones I should have. I don't know.

    Magic:
    2 Points War Dance: Sun(Inspire):
    A war ritual tapping into some old magic to have it flow out onto the battlefield. Can be used to invigorate and buff allies as long as the dancer is capable of maintaining momentum and her party is capable of seeing and hearing her performance.
    1 Point War Dance: Moon(Self): While Danielle hasn't really honed this as much as the Sun School, there are ritualists out there who are capable of using their powers to buff themselves. The benefit of this is that while it only works on themselves is that it's done by movement and feel of the flow and the ritualist doesn't need to see or hear their own performance to buff themselves this way.
    1 Point Lightning Bolt: It does exactly what it says it does.
    1 Point- ?

    In the witcher universum magic is named as Chaos, Art and Science. Most mages and sorceres use for magic source like water, Earth, fire and air. More powerfull source, than more powerfull spell. The easiest source is water, most dangrous is fire, Earth and air are difficult to master. Source have its own will and mage have to own will stronger than will of source or mage will be destroyed. There is possible to transfer some part of magic in special items, like rings, wands, amulets or another aritfacts.

    I'm not hugely knowledgeable about Witcher lore, so there might be inaccuracies and simplifications of the magic system on my part.

    F
    From what I gather Aerokinesis exists that lets you do like electric spells. And mind kind of spell exists. I guess it just a question of what to do for that last slot.

    No, I think you're the last. Someone messaged me to say they were interested, but it looks like they don't have time to join. That said, anyone else would be perfectly welcome to join at any time.
