Advice


I recently joined a homegame and have a bunch of people from PFS who joined. Since I haven't done a mele-beasty type character in 8 years, I decided to do a bloodrager. The build doesn't so much matter (mostly since I have almost no build set in stone at this point) but I could use help with a background. The setting is around Belkzen, and my character is a Qlippoth Tiefling with Maw alternate racial trait and his first feat is Armor of the Pit. He is a Aberrant/Abyssal Xbloodrager who will be serving as the tank/mele DPS of the party.

I've looked through some books (Inner Sea World Guide, Blood of Fiends) and haven't found really what I'm looking for. The current idea is being an enslaved Qlippoth from the Abyss who killed his masters during a surface raid just outside the Worldwound. He has hated his demonic slavers since childhood and wants his Abyss (swamp hehe) back. He heard in the Abyss from his Qlippoth "family" that the mortals sin and sin feeds the demons who occupy their world. He also heard that there are different races of mortals who tend to sin more, and has heard a bit about Belkzen. After his escape, he plans to go to Belkzen and quench his thirst for sinful Orc blood.

Ideas?

If you are from Cheliax then you could be anything from popular to worshiped due to the "gifts" bestowed upon you by the great fiends. But then that would give you reason to appreciate your heritage rather than seek to destroy it. You could still play it off as liking Qlippoth-kin but hating Demon, Devils, etc. I guess. Either way it is probably a good idea to establish early in your character background that you have a reason to hunt the things crawling out of the Worldwound. Maybe even have a nickname granted by a small local community if you want to be known for it.
