Precious

Just a couple of weeks ago, I heard about a new D&D 5E campaign starting. I hadn’t played D&D since 3.5, as I thought 4E was a terrible step backward in roleplaying, and didn’t have time for 5E when it first came out. Now I had enough time to commit to a game, so I went and rolled up a character and started working on the character background, etc.

Then the GM announced that due to increased work commitments he was cancelling the game before it actually started.

Still, any creative work is worthy of recording, so this is my first 5E D&D character, who may yet find a campaign.

Appearance

Precious’ appearance is largely based on a piece of artwork I discovered on DeviantArt when I was searching for visual references for this character, with some personal modifications. She can pass for human in most conditions with only minor effort, particularly hiding her horns, which is why she favors clothing with hoods.
