Decided to submit this anyway. Worth a shot! This is NeoEvaX (DM Nex)'s submittion.

Assumed role in party: Melee, and a bit of a "foil" to keep momentum.

General Concept: Without mocking or being a character, a smaller raced melee fighter. A raging halfing.

Player Experience I have not been playing for too long. About 3 years now. I have played, and completed, in a Skull and Shackles game.
I have GMed a few long going games. A few that went to very high level.
I discovered PbP and am currently GMing a Pathfinder and a Starfinder game. I did a small Playtest one, but ended it because things kept changing on me, and it was just 1 too many systems for my brain at the time.

Background:

A child of slavery. Halflings are never treated well in Cheliax. She was purchased by a wanna be Alchemist with dreams of grandeur. He experimented on lots of Halflings. Thinking no one would miss them. He wanted to find ways to power. Jealous of people with innate magic abilites. During one of these experiments he injected a young halfling girl with a strange substance he purchased from a dark market.

The substance, Black Blood, originated from deep underground. From Orv, one of the deeper layers of the Darklands. It mixed with Kiera's blood and changed her. Turning her body into a dangerous object. The "alchemist" was pleased and continued to experiment on her. Pushing her to her limits. Forcing her to do terrible acts. Keeping her as angry as possible. She would find herself in a room filed with gas that caused her to get furious and then they would release animals, or even other children into the room. He would find pleasure in Kiera's chemically induced rage.

At some point the Bellflower network found out about these slaves, and attacked the alchemist's warehouse. Releasing the halfings held captive. Kiera was free, but first order or business was to go back and get revenge. With a bit of help from the Network she returned and killed the alchemist. Never even knowing his name or what he his real purpose was, just knowing he did terrible things and finding joy in taking him out.

With no remaining goal in life, she was free. She thanked the Bellflowers, who gave her supplies and she traveled north. She realized she had a pull down. Something in the earth was calling to her, ever faintly. The desire to head deeper tickling her mind. She traveled north to Nidal. Helping people where she could, while also looking for a chance to learn more about herself.

Description/Personality:

A small brown haired Halfling girl. She is likely in, halfling equivalent, of early 20s. A few strange scars on her body. From being tested on. With a few being from battle. Really pushes for freedom. Slavery or anyone being taken advantage of really gets under her skin.

Character roadmap:
Kiera would love to learn more about herself, maybe a bit of this black blood, or at least more about the Darklands as a whole. She is looking for a cause. Something bigger than herself. At the same time, she is not going to be able to really stop herself from helping others.
