Thanks for the interest, everyone! I'm glad it's working out. 
The story I have in mind is that there is a secret plot by the main villain to unseal a dark god unto the land. One person saw something that hints to this and that's why they were scheduled for execution.

Charlevoix, Geist, Steel fist, thank you for the interest :3
Gelatinous Cube, I'm sorry to hear you're in a funk, but I understand and thank you! I will design the character sheet soon enough.
User, of course you can play a villain, or maybe even THE Villain. Just as you wish. ^-^
