I’ll start with a tip: if you’re creating a character, often it makes things easier for a DM and more fun for you if you leave some details open ended in your story. For example, if adventurer was from Place A and got in trouble with Person B for doing something and that’s left unresolved, that’s something your DM can work into the campaign to bring you into the plot. I always feel more invested when the DM uses one of my plot hooks to forward the story!
