What's your fighter's backstory?
>>
He slav squats and intimidates people into giving him money. Lawful Good at its finest.
>>
>>94762843
He was an orphan who was taken on by a group of mercenaries as a dogsbody. Over time, he learned how to fight from them. Eventually one bad campaign led to their breakup, and he went off by himself.
>>
He travels around as a mercenary but never stays in one place too long because he's being pursued by some kind of shape-shifting monsters who kill and replace anyone he gets too close to. He actually developed Capgrass Syndrome after suffering a head injury in battle and the entire thing is a delusion. He's already killed several friends, family members and coworkers and is wanted by the authorities.

>>94762843
Galatea-type warforged who woke up for the first time in her maker's workshop after said maker had been abducted
>>
I was a highwayman for a long time, but i started to have visions urging me to a higher purpose. Since then ive travelled, gained fame and prestiege, and grown phenomenally powerful and i realize now, from atop a mountain of skulls, magic blade in hand and legions scattered to the winds before me, that my higher purpose was ultimately just a bigger highwayman

Straight laced soldier who found his CO abusing PoWs for fun and pleasure, so he murdered him on the spot and ran.

He was a replacement body that a power tripping wizard grew for himself under his fortress' courtyard. Guy got taken out in a siege on his fortress before he could even get past the initial phase of the transfer process and only a small spark of life and knowledge made it in. 30 or so years later that managed to grow just enough to give the body life and he dug his way out of the ground to the surface. He wandered around confused for a while before some Local Lord© patrol found him and eventually let him into their ranks since he was cooperative and had no home or possessions prior

Dragonborn from a weeb clan out doing his samurai-ly duties alongside his paladin friend, a rogue they both caught robbing his manor and gang-pressed into service, and an old one Warlock with a tentacle fetish. Together, they accidentally start international incidents!

Cyberpunk equivalent of a fighter but: grew up in the ghetto and quickly fell in with the gangs until she met somebody who taught her martial arts. Said teacher got killed and she entered an inescapable downward spiral, replacing everything below the neck with metal and landing in prison a few times and is currently hovering at the edge of sanity (with 4 cool robot arms though so it's worth it)
>>
Firstborn of a minor noble (but with a quite quaint land, think Shire) that really sucks, and hates, administration stuff so he left the headship to his brother and left to be a knight errant to avoid any potential political instability (more like noisy gossips).

>What's your fighter's backstory?
Backstory? Well, uh... he's from the... *rolls 1d4* ...North. And he... *looks at the bag of snacks on the table* grew up on a farm. And he became a fighter when... *looks over at family photo on the wall* his dad taught him because... he was also a fighter. But the dad retired to own a farm. And now my guy goes adventuring to... make money for... his family on the farm. Yeah, that's it.
>>
>>94762843
Has survivor's guilt after his unit got destroyed in an orc raid.
>>
>>94764013
Okay, your family farm has a neighbor that's buying up all the properties from the locals and he is harassing your father to sell through blackmail (lies about him fucking livestock). You can pay the man to fuck off but he could possibly come back. Normally you would return home at once under your father's summons, but you have not made nearly enough money to back out of your mercenary contract. Furthermore you took a small loan out for adventuring gear and the first payment is due at the end of the week. What do you do, Farm Boy?

Orcs are inherently evil and cannot be reasoned with.

won the gold medal in pentathlon in his setting's equivalent of the olympics, became very famous in his city state but lost almost all his money in shady investment deals and partying because he's a credulous rube. had to pawn the medal to buy arms and chain mail to become a mercenary as he continues to chase the high of public adoration and physical superiority in service of the god of glory he worships

This one dude I made a while ago was just a shepherd who was good at bonking with a stick. He was so good that a traveling merchant saw him bonking wolves and hired him with the other party members in that large town. He refused to use metals because he didn't think he was worth it, so after a while, he was rewarded a super bat from a Dryid demi-god from a magical tree. He used it to Bonk a evil dragon.

It was fun.

He was essentially the muscle for a salvaging operation. An older Gnome NPC used his network of contacts and experience in the industry to handle the information gathering / bartering portion of the job, while my guy - a big bulky Lizardfolk - acted as an enforcer for him, and more often than not was the one doing the actual salvaging while the Gnome was handling the boat.
To cut it short, one day the boat got sank and his boss died, so while that avenue of work was pretty much cut off, exploring and looting ruins sounded similar enough and profitable enough that he set out that way.

Half-ogre.
Hardly welcome anywhere. Too small and weak for ogres, too big and dumb and short-tempered for humans.
Made sense to team up with other misfits, crazies and weirdoes to go adventuring.

Ya-hah! Avast, yee hooligans! For it is I, Prince Dagomir the Fifth, a 4th level Fighter, the mightiest of classes, with the deadliest of skills! I have tamed the mighty griffon with my steel, subdued the treachorous ogre of Mog-bire swamp, and defeated countless goblins, and even a few orcs along the way in my journeys! I have killed giant rats in old Gertrudes basement, bested highwaymen on my way to Parthoria, and even brought a bard to sing of my accomplishments in thy local tavern of fair maiden wenches! Of course they loved me, as all wench-folk tend to lovest thou, coveting thy mighty Strength rating of 14! Truly no man in the land can bring such coiled muscle to bare! The lord of the local kingdom holds me in highest esteem, even beyond his meager knights and even beyond is closest confidant, the Seer of Grachenspielenbergen. I hold no equals in the realm of mutual combat, you can be sure, for I have traveled the lands and nay come upon such a rapscallion as to tarnish my reputation, each one falling before my blade, or my wit. You stand no chance against my charms, bravado, or training! Give up now, or I shall end you, and make you hope that I end things quickly! What-say-you, brigand?

Latest fighter-type was a barbarian, but close enough.
He was a warrior from a northern tribe who was leading his first warband to raid a rival tribe, but was ambushed defetead and sold into slavery in the far south. He was forced to be a pit fighter and guard for several years until he managed to escape, kill his master, steal a horse and a sack of gold, set fire to his master's manor and ride into the night. He then became a mercenary so that he could return to his homeland with glory and riches until he was killed by an unexpected vampire lord

His name was walter. He was a man at arms for a major city but retired after he got ptsd from participating in a lizardfolk genocide. He was haunted by his actions and coped by having a pet dog. He joined up with a mercenary company to help make ends meet and he hopes to eventually save up enough money to open a tavern.
