Checking in. Thanks all for the kind words ;)

Here is my submission of an Asmodean Cleric with the fire and deception domains.
I am working on his backstory and will have it done by tomorrow evening (if that's not too late).
For now, I know that he is a quiet man always willing to help out - while keeping a running tally , of course. He curates secrets and favors, but he gets great pleasure when he can let loose the fires of hell on the unlawful and unbelieving.
Cesare believes that information is power, and while he has no desire to be the face of an Asmodean regime, he will certainly do his best to pull the strings behind the scenes.

Cesare's Backstory
Cesare Mallato has been a loyal servant of Cardinal Thorn since his birth.
Given to the Asmodean Priest two weeks after his birth by his uncle who had murdered his parents, Cesare was given enough food to keep alive and hunger was his constant companion.
Stunted from malnutrition, Cesare never got very big. In fact, he’s much shorter than others of his kind with whipcord muscles like knotted rope under tightly stretched, sickly pale skin.
Cardinal Thorn was a cunning and ruthless mentor. He constantly set up situations with extreme outcomes, and Cesare was continually forced to choose in the face of impossible odds.
You can continue to sleep outside on the kitchen stoop and I’ll give you 1/3 more food or you can frame the kitchen boy for stealing, he’ll get thrown out, and you’ll get his spot by the hearth to sleep. In return though, you’ll have to do his chores, but you will have access to more food in the long run. If you choose the latter and get caught? I’ll throw you in the hole for a month.
In this way, Cesare learned to lie, steal, and manipulate. He’s learned the value of a good disguise and a juicy secret.
As he’s aged, Cesare decided that he is content to serve those he can’t beat for as long as he can’t beat them. He’s decided that life’s hierarchies are necessary, and he will never miss an opportunity to make those below him feel his power, and prove his worth to those above.
I may not ever wear a crown, but I will be the one who hands them out.
Here is the crunch for Frankis. Sorry for the delay.
I changed one of his Domains from Law to Evil and used the Contracts Variant Channeling Option.

I think I'll leave the branding irons out, a hot dagger will have to suffice.
Here is Vahela again, including the info from my earlier post.
I've received votes from two party members; waiting for either all of them to come back to me, or a 4/7 majority if that occurs, since it'd be foregone at that point. Will come with more when it happens.
Sounds good. Thanks for the update!
Looking forward to seeing who makes it in! Hope it is me :)
Happy Friday guys! I hope everyone has a great weekend! ~Jules1
Sorry it took so long, guys; people had to find the team to read through everything, and that wasn't exactly work they all signed up for. Votes are, save for one person, in, and the winner is already in. Tatiana, report to the thread. Sorry everyone else, but good luck in getting your characters into future WotW games.
Thanks Spooky. Posting now.
