Galiven was born in Cheliax, and was abandoned at birth by her parents. A nymph found her and took her as a child.
As she grew up she became fascinated with animals and the wild. She found snakes and reptiles more interesting than most. She learned nature magic from her adopted mother and became a druid, taking a coral snake as her companion. She joined a small group and found out she enjoyed the thrill of hunting and killing monsters who threatened the land. But the day came when they had to choose, money or the greater good? She refused to take greed over the right, and her older friends turned on her. She escaped with her life, but not without scars, and now is wary of others, and refuses to get close to others (no physical contact). She still follows her heart, knowing who to trust and who not to.

She wanders around the world, searching for hope in good.

Small left out stuff is like she was raped by her former party members, and she was slashed down the back by the same.

well, my schedule just changed, so i wouldn't have fit anyways

Well, my advice, do what's best. Apologize to him and give him a chance later on. Otherwise, if he doesn't fit, just boot him. I'm sure he's had similar problems before, I Have! But if you don't want to truly kill his dreams, ask him to change his character according to what is needed.. And by the way, I do hope you don't kick my character off. :)

But yes, forgotten realms is one of the best champaign settings. Go Drizzt, and the mage of shadowdale! Well... I'm moderately interested in El, he is the most powerful mage in the world, at the lvl of 26 in AD&D. Chosen of mystra, and such... I like both post- and pre- spell plague. But that's mainly just because of Dragonborn and Teifling.

Plus wizards have come up with "the sundering", basically them going oops, sorry, here's our attempt to fix that

....A few months ago in my "Abraxas Gambit" campaign I introduced a couple of Mind Flayers to my group hoping for a dramatic moment for the 5th level PCs. When they entered the room in the dungeon and I showed...

Well the dreaded mind flayer! (Except for Fred, he's a nice illithid)At least it wasn't a beholder, eh? Those things would have melted your fighters while making your mages absolutely useless

And to make it worse, it ends up being a death tyrant! Undead beholder no-no like you

Pathfinder takes away a lot Of the iconic D&D monsters, the eye tyrant deserves a spot on your list paizo!!!!!

I do try to keep player knowledge from character. But obviously I know what a goblin is, and a kobold. Not any history or religion, but definitely what it looks like! That's character knowledge. I don't know dinosaur exist, no turning into T-Rex as soon as I can do that :)

I'm relatively done with fluff... Just needing to get it up.

Paizo keeps eating my backstory, so I'm posting it here

backstory:
Galiven was born in Cheliax, and was abandoned at birth by her parents. A nymph found her and took her as a child.

As she grew up she became fascinated with animals and the wild. She found snakes and reptiles more interesting than most. She learned nature magic from her adopted mother and became a druid, taking a coral snake as her companion. She joined a small group and found out she enjoyed the thrill of hunting and killing. She knew what was right and wrong, she refused to kill innocent, and her older friends turned on her. She escaped and now is wary of others, and refuses to get close to others (no physical contact).

She wanders around the world, searching for hope in good.

Old companions: Dani: a halfling rouge, Trest: a Teifling sorcerer, Falder:a human fighter

I'll get more details, but paizo eats it for breakfast.

I had a backstory, but paizo ate it... Otherwise I have a crunch.
