"\r\nBefore stepping into Athas, share a bit of your character's background.\r\n"
"Guideline: aim for at least four lines that hint at where they came from,\r\n"
"who shaped them, and why they now walk the Tyr region. Touch on things like:\r\n"
" - The city-state, tribe, or caravan that claimed them.\r\n"
" - Mentors, slavers, or patrons who left a mark.\r\n"
" - A defining hardship, triumph, oath, or secret.\r\n"
" - The goal, vengeance, or hope that drives them back into the wastes.\r\n"
"\r\nExample 1:\r\n"
" Raised beneath the ziggurat of Tyr, I learned to barter gossip between\r\n"
" templars and gladiators just to stay alive. Freedom came when Kalak fell,\r\n"
" but the slave-scar on my shoulder still aches. I now search the desert\r\n"
" for the relic my clutch mates died protecting, hoping to buy their kin peace.\r\n"
"\r\nExample 2:\r\n"
" I rode caravan outrider routes from Balic until giants shattered our train.\r\n"
" Two nights buried in silt taught me to whisper with the wind and trust only\r\n"
" my erdlu. I hunt the warlord who sold us out, yet coin and company on the\r\n"
" road must come first.\r\n"
"\r\nExample 3:\r\n"
" Born outside Raam, I was tempered by obsidian shards and psionic murmurs.\r\n"
" A defiler ruined our oasis, so I swore to hound such spell-scars wherever\r\n"
" they bloom. Rumor of a hidden well near Tyr is the lone hope that guides me.\r\n"
"\r\nType your background now. Use '/s' on a blank line when you finish.\r\n"
"If you'd rather keep it secret, just save immediately and we'll note the mystery.\r\n\r\n");
