About this Gig
I Will Write Immersive Backstories and Lore for Your TTRPG Character
Are you tired of playing a hero who is just a collection of stats? I transform character concepts into real, breathing parts of the world with a past that matters. Let's build that story together. I specialize in Game Writing that inspires your roleplaying and gives your Dungeon Master exciting plot hooks to weave into the campaign.
What I Offer: I collaborate with you to craft a rich and detailed backstory, focusing on core narrative depth:
- Deep Motivations: Why did your character leave their old life?
- Defining Moments: Key events that shaped who they are today.
- Connections: Friends, family, or rivals.
- Flaws & Fears: What makes your character vulnerable.
- Integration: Story details authentic to your Class/Race/World.
Why Choose Me? As a lifelong gamer and storyteller, I've personally designed and written dozens of custom campaign arcs for TTRPG groups, always prioritizing story elements that are easy for a DM to implement. My work transforms passive history into an active narrative engine.
- Please message me before placing an order to discuss your concept!

FAQ
What information do you need from me to get started?
All I need are the basics outlined in the gig requirements: your character's Name, Race, Class, and Background. Beyond that, any small details you have—a general personality trait, an alignment, or a specific vibe you're going for—are incredibly helpful.
What if I have absolutely no ideas for my character's backstory?
No problem at all! That's what I'm here for. If all you have is a concept like "Dwarf Barbarian," I can build a compelling and unique story from scratch that fits the classic themes of that character while adding a unique twist.
Can you write for a specific campaign setting (e.g., Forgotten Realms, Eberron, or my DM's homebrew world)?
Absolutely! I love weaving a character into established lore. Just provide me with a link or a brief document explaining the key details of the world your DM has created or the official setting you're using. If no setting is provided, I will write the story in a standard, generic fantasy world.
What if I'm not happy with the story you write?
My number one goal is to create a story you're excited to play. Each package comes with a set number of revisions. If the first draft isn't quite right, just provide me with clear feedback on what you'd like to change, and we will work together to make it perfect for your character.
Can I see a sample of your writing before I order?
Of course! Please check out my gig's portfolio gallery (above the FAQ). I have uploaded several PDF examples of backstories for different character types to showcase my writing style and range.
What format will the final backstory be delivered in?
You will receive the final, polished backstory as a clean and easy-to-read PDF file. If you require a different format, such as a Google Doc or .txt file, please let me know when you place the order!
How do you personalize each story?
I start with a detailed questionnaire that covers your character's class, race, major world events, and two core motivations. I then iterate directly with you on the first draft to ensure the story feels authentic, unique, and perfectly tailored to integrate with your specific campaign world.
