That is a very brilliant Idea might I say. I am in awe and great story it kept me at the edge of my seat even though I make stories up all the time I am a DM. Anyhow that has to be the greatest char story I have ever heard and thank you greatly for I shall use it wisely.
I don't find it to be so amazing. It isn't very detailed, and we cannot infer anything about the character from it.
Why does he travel? For the hell of it?
With CP on this, this is one of my borderline 3s. Nothing wrong with it but just very plain, nothing of the underlying character of this Travelling Wizard really shows through, fine for a legend but otherwise not much use.
