My first time using the system, normally I don’t bother with such things because I don’t really need them to flesh out a character and their history.
i ran out of time however to make it neat and pretty.
If you are waiting on a rogue. I’d like to submit Tallen for your consideration.

Tallan was raised by his older sister and her husband on a small farm in the south western flanaess in the Sheldomar Valley. He grew tired of his sisters constant nagging, his brother-in-laws heavy handedness, and the never ending drudgery of life on the farm. So with great hope and an equal measure of naivety he ran away to find his fortune.
Tallen, Tal to his friends, is a fun loving free spirit quick of tongue and wit which often lands him in trouble. Tal is a fair hand at woodcraft as well as with a blade and a bow and is not shy about letting people know about it. He works hard at getting out of work and would rather be sitting in the shade smoking his pipe or around a camp fire with friends drinking and singing loud and off key.
Tallen is tall and lanky, standing a bit over six feet tall, with a lithe but well-muscled build. His fair skin and curly blond hair plainly mark his suloise heritage. The willowy rogue has a wry grin and a wink for his friends.
Sooo...looking for investors Elton???? :-)
I'm flattered. :) But, no.
Alright, I’m back to writing a sentence or two while I wait on a delivery here and there. Will flesh things out more today. If anyone has questions, ask.
Also, if anyone wants to tie BGs together, pipe up.

The one above is better for lower powered devices or local storage and viewing
I believe this one shows more detail, including some boundaries.
Though this one is more intensive on devices, and seemed to have issues viewing the file after downloading it.
Keoland, Sheldomar Valley. West of the Axe Wood.Where is your character from?
I don't see a Sheldomar Valley on the map, though I do see a Sheldomar River

Earlier the GM asked me if I was from the valley, or the wood elves.
Additional detail
1. Orc
2. Bard/arcanist
3. 2b) No archetypes planned
4. No splats currently expected.
5. LN alignment, she acts on reason and belief over emotions, and leans towards good in general but places goals first.
Background
A) Grew up in a forest.
B) Both adoptive elven parents alive, both orc parents dead, though orc uncle is alive. Selious and Feana Galastacia, elven parents, Thrask Whitetusk is orc uncle.
C) Two brothers, much older, Feanis and Aelinor
D) adopted outside my race
E) adopted by elves
F) parents are nobles, soldiers is closest profession on the table.
G) Noble rank, Baron (really odd list I think). Chose this because it is low enough any history won’t conflict with setting lore yet high enough that Selious would command others and be able to make agreements
H) Magical Gift
I) (Went with the wizard backgrounds, seemed closest to arcanist, and bard is more her noble education rather than minstrelsy) Mortality’s Mirror, she lives with a bunch of elves that are far longer lived than orcs. That hurts a bit.
J) Liege lord, her adoptive father being one of the few that truly supported from early on, is her closest relationship by far.
Conflict
Minor failure, motivated by pressure, involving a fellow noble, resolved with regret and penance. Her first trip into town on her own led to disaster as another noble that never agreed with making peace with the orcs basically sent her packing. At the time she was still very young and had not really found that balance of exercising authority while avoiding a fight. Turned into a very important lesson on that front as her task from her father outranked the noble. The task was to summon the blacksmith, but Lord Ternath was there speaking with the blacksmith about his armor and didn’t want to be interrupted.
No specific deity, proper respects to the pantheon at appropriate times.
No experience with romance.
Personalty flaw is safety and security, but I don’t plan on taking a drawback. She is an orc living with elves, many of whom think very little of orcs. And her visits to the orcs, well, safety is always a concern there. The deceptions abound in a noble’s life. Therefore, trust is quite difficult.
I updated Vesica's character sheet a bit more. She still needs to pick 1st-level spells; I want to see if we need a secondary healer first and, if not, I'll take cure light wounds.Her total Encumbrance is 34 lbs. GM: Can I have her carry half the number of sling stones (5 instead of 10) and assume that her waterskin's only half full at most at any time (reducing weight from 4 lbs. to 2 lbs.)?
I finally saw this in detail. Yes you can have her carry half the number of sling stones, and her waterskin can be half full.
There's a bit of a workaround for weakling PCs: the masterwork backpack (Ultimate Equipment, p. 58), which allows you to treat your Strength score as if it were 1 point higher for encumbrance only.
The mwk backpack weighs 4 lbs. and costs 50 gp. Since my PC rolled only 60 gp to start, if she bought one she wouldn't be able to afford anything to put inside it!
Also, since it's in a sourcebook outside of what was listed, we'd need to get GM approval.
I think I have that book. Nope, I don't. Link to it on AoN or PFd20SRD so I can take a look at it.
Masterwork Backpack on Archives of Nethys: Masterwork Backpack
It doesn't really apply to Vesica as she didn't have enough gold to afford one, plus I dropped her Wisdom to 13 to pump up her Strength to 12.

Okay. Manual of Gainful Exercise would be in her future, I think.
The Sheldomar Valley is the entire strip of land that makes up Bissel, Gran March, Keoland, the Uleks, and even the western marches fingering out of the Valley, Sterich, Geoff, & Yeomanry.
And for real -- the Anna Meyer map is Google Earth for Greyhawk.
That helps explain why I didn't see it on the maps, Thanks Ray.
Does anyone else want to apply? This is the last call before I pick.
Updating Ayla's Background a bit more.
Also aiming to work on Ayla's 3D render (it'll be much later as the computer is converting some 3D assets to another format),
Thinking of adding an item that was sold off that was Ayla's while she was taken as a slave.
Also Anyone up for connecting their Background to Ayla, and vis versa?
Kurazi is wanderer from the Bright Lands, and lead by visions, perhaps she found you, or was guided to locate you.
She herself left behind an evil land and a terrible tribe in her journey so helping another lost soul is right up her ally
Edit: just found the Bright Lands, they are near the Duchy of Urnst.
Ayla would likely be neutral to Kurazi initially.
So then how did you end up in Newbridge (it is near Hochoch in the map above, it is directly west of the Bright lands and over the first mountain range), and still be level 1?
All the mechanical choices arr made and in my sheet, save equipment, though I’m still filling out the sheet with all the derivative numbers and details.
