Dungeons & Dragons 2024 (D&D) Background: Forsaken Mercenary

Mud, blood, and coin have been your entire life since joining the Forsaken. You may have been recruited from the fighting pit in the Sanctified District, joined as a fugitive to escape justice, or been found as a babe in the mud and raised as a Forsaken. Your history before joining the group doesn’t matter now. Your comrades are your family. Violence is your trade.

The ranks of the Forsaken live by the unspoken rule of Ruby District—it’s a place where only the strong survive. Your ambitions may stretch only as far as your payment for enduring the next battle. Few expect anything more from you. Yet a hidden ideal may truly drive your actions, or you may hope to lead your own company one day.
