Today's guest is Brad, who came into this episode wanting to create a character who was had a substance dependancy. After rolling for the basics we went through and filled in some details on the Diverse Character Worksheet.

Eventually we had gotten to place where we had a basic understanding of who Toshz was. The Lizardfolk Carpenter works in a large town with a long term committed romantic partner. Toshz has found great success as a carpenter and business person but she grew up in a rural conservative Lizardfolk community somewhat near the town she now lives in. She did not agree with all the beliefs of that community which caused tension along with never going through one of their main rites of passage. She now spends most of her days in charge at work, regularly partaking in the use of a magic substance that gives her a form of escape from her life. And once a year she goes back to the Lizardfolk community to participate in their annual procreation practice where eggs get fertilized and distributed among the community. As she never finished the rite of passage though, she never gets to bring any eggs home.
