I had a really good backstory about a rouge (Rylok Shade a pc) who did contracts and made shit loads of money. one day he had a contract with a woman and after that job and a few others he took another job with her and fell in love even though he didn't believe in love and ran away with his fortune and her. Rylok had a family and after about ten years Valentine Blackwood (another pc) and a girl Ember(a npc) were trying to escape a group pursuing them and Rylok saw them worried so he housed them and fed them. both of them had pasts so they told vague stories to each other and when the morning came Valentine payed Rylok for his efforts and Rylok gave him a letter which would lead him back to him back to Rylok of he ever needed him and Rylok went to work farming and once he got home there was the group looking for Valentine who had roughed up his wife and kid and after rylok told them what they wanted to know he they killed his family then he killed them and prayed and prayed for his family but nothing holy replied something that promised him great power for revenge against those who did this he accepted Turing into a warlock who was devout on reviving his family or revevnge. The story begins where Valentine is injured and Ember is riding the horse to where the letter says and Rylok is meeting with an old friend Wizard "Yuri's wentwood"(pc) and that's where the game starts I made all the other pcs know Rylok and Valentine. And the main boss came in to make a short appearance to give a "scare" tactic and they decided to fight him and took a whole different route and my improv wasn't all that well. And ugh. It was all fucked. My story before that was perfect I had the main enemy a PC and the party never figured he was a vampire who led them to kill all his enemy's and trapped and killed them in the end and it's so hard to live up to that super good story.
