I don't need a back story per se. However, if you're tired we can have this talk another time (=
I just want to make sure all the characters are connected somehow. It'll help the story progress.

Well, you're a warrior, and you're a long way from home. You could be a mercenary, fighting for either the Alderian Alliance or the Elvish Resistance. Or you could be out on a specific quest, such as to prove your ability of a warrior in a required quest to become Clan Leader back home. Or perhaps you're a psychotic mass murderer, and you're looking for any excuse to kill something with your massive axe.

[Laggia]

Hmm Hes on the quest to becoem the mightest of orcs to one day take over his tribe by killing his own father ?does that soyund good enough

Then you will require a character. That, or you're playing a dust bunny under the bed of Smelly Joe, a hobo in the great metropolitan center of the Alderian Republic who's badly indebted to the local dictatorial authorities, and must go through a hilarious series of adventures to attempt to get rid of his debt. On the way, he will meet a multitude of quirky characters, and will be drawn into a story that travels far beyond the borders of his alley territory. However, you will experience none of this, because you will be a dust bunny under his bed.

That sounds badass. I'm going to throw in my own addition, and say that the reason he believes he is chosen for this task is because he wields Morgathar, the talking axe of great might. And if he succeeds at performing a feat of strength sufficient to convince all he is worthy of Morgathar, he will be able to unite the various orc tribes under a single rule - his own.

Alrighty then. You now have a snarky axe for a sidekick, an ancient quest, and a horde of other ambitious orcs who would love to kill you and take your axe.

Who will play that axe then ? and quite indeed an ancient quest and other orcs who would gladly kill me hehe

Aw, poor dust bunny me. xD I'll make a charatcer, so don't threat. Although being a dust bunny could mean adventures, but that's another story.

Give me a reason he's in the story. I mean, he's a big, rather generic dragon, and you've cunningly avoided giving him a personality, so I see no reason he should be doing anything besides eating fish on his glacier. One of the main problems is that there is no glacier anywhere even NEAR the area the story is taking place in, which appears to be around the Seven Thrones, and I see no reason this dragon would randomly migrate to elven lands for no obvious reason.Basically, he needs a motivation. And maybe a personality. I'd like a personality.

*she* and i avoided giving her a personality in order to be able to change it as the story progresses, and she'd migrate to expand her hoarde... also, don't talk to me about her being generic. you literally said they were the generic dragons -_-

Of course, it becomes a whole lot less amusing when the orc who wants the axe has twenty orc buddies, and they're about to beat you black and blue to take your lunch money. Also, I'm thinking you get to play the axe mostly. Occasionally, I may PM you with stuff the axe knows that you can incorporate into your posts, but this should be a rare event, and mostly he'll simply be another character, albeit one that lacks limbs.

Well, now you've tempted me to create a race of incredibly small dust bunny demons inspired by Totoro.

The orcs are generic orcs as well, but that doesn't mean they don't have personalities and motivations. The high elves are generic elves, but they don't all look the same. Just because the race is bland and generic does not mean the character must also be bland and generic. In fact, I'm sure a creative mind such as yours would be capable of creating an incredibly interesting and detailed character with many ideas and hooks for dramatic tension.
In any case, if you're expanding your hoard, then that's a bit generic and boring. You'd just fly over a small village and take all their stuff, and keep raiding villages until the generic spiky-haired hero came along and stabbed you in the face repeatedly. In any case, I'm going to, as I've done with the other Bio's, suggest some more ideas to this basic and generic goal, add a little bit more flavor.
So I suggest that your dragon is after a very specific artifact. This could be an artifact of great arcane power, or it could be an incredibly valuable gem. It could even be an item of great political value, depending on how much of an interest your dragon has in the going-ons of the bipedal races. In any case, this artifact is unique, and your dragon wishes to retrieve it. The problem is that you're not entirely sure where it is, and how to acquire it, which has led you to be forced to track it down.
Alternatively, you could be tracking an incredibly dangerous "hero". Dragon slaying is a popular and heroic activity, as the general idea of dragons is that they'd big, scary and dangerous. This person could be a renowned dragon slayer, having killed many of your kin, perhaps even having faced you personally and left some form of scar to remember him by. However, it could also be a figure of political or arcana power who was involved in some form of tragic event involving the slaughter of your people, likely for material gain. This person would be hard to track down and harder to kill, and would force you to face or work with the other characters.

In fact, allow me to do something even better. If you create a race of Dust Bunny creatures, then I will allow your character to play one, assuming they are not ridiculously powerful or in some other way unacceptable within the setting.
