@DreanKhan, please for the love of every god tell me Gaz'Edo possesses what I think he possesses.
Gaz'Ebo possesses many things, both animate and not. A favourite tactic of his is to possess a point of congregation in a public space. He uses this to get a feel for he local inhabitants, who is most receptive to his advances. During his imprisonment, he gained both a great appreciation for manicured plant life, and the value of knowledge gained from being in an otherwise innocuous building. Ideally, to hear the best secrets, the building should be open as possible, allowing those within plenty of warning should anyone approach, and in a public area, so as to not attract undue attention to a clandestine meeting.
@DreadKhan Do you think it would be possible for Gaz'Ebo to possess a developer by any chance? Lets use @Cuv as an example. Would Gaz'Ebo be able to possess Cuv?

Almost certainly! If the initial attempts to possess him failed, Gaz'Ebo typically will possess an important possession, and use that as a stepping stone. Only the most stalwart of mortal hearts could fend off Gaz'Ebo the Abhorrent!
I decided to re-do this post below since when I first posed this in 2015 (now 2017) these characters were just starting out.
1. Name: Piro Faeren 2. Alignment: CG, sometimes leaning towards CN. 3. Species: Fey-blooded female Gnome 4. Class: Sylvan Sorceress (Tome and Blood mod/Pathfinder), Bard (3.5), or Illusionist/Thief (Icewind Dale/BG vanilla)
5. One line that describes their personality that they would say: "The best path between two points is upside-down, between, then inside-out and round again."
6. One line from another person that describes them: "She's absolutely, delightfully, adorable! She may act a but um . . .derpy, but she's actually quite intelligent and always has her heart in the right place!. . . sometimes." - Val'myr Zaur, Piro's romantic partner.
Also, totally stole that line from Lulu from league of legends (also my profile picture). I suck at being original sometimes. If I think of something more creative I'll edit it
and then my main character for most games.
1. Name: Val'myr Zaur 2. Alignment: TN 3. Species: Male Drow 4. Class: Necromancer, Cleric (necromancy inclined of, course, or White Necromancer.
5. One line that describes their personality that they would say: "Necromancy IS NOT EVIL! Neither are all Drow! Why do people assume I'm evil! I'm a gentlemen and a knight! Well, not a knight. But I'm NOT EVIL!"
6. One line from another person that describes them: "Valy is a fun person! He's really weird and talks to the dead a lot, but hey! We're all different! He just likes dead things!" - Piro Faeren, Val'myr's romantic partner.
1. Brian O'Brian 2. CG 3. Human 4. Berzerker 5. The latest incarnation of the legendary hero, Brianheart shall deliver a heavy boot to the gonads of evil! YOU HEAR THAT, EVIL! YOU HAD BETTER WATCH YOUR NUTS! 6. Ronan: I can't believe we allowed this idiot to join our group...
Name: Tresset Alignment: Chaotic Good Race: Half-Elf (male) Class: Berserker/Shadowdancer (multi-class) Self Quote: "I have the blood of a god in my veins. Countless beings have tried to manipulate me and use me to accomplish their own desires. Countless more have tried to kill me. Yet I have triumphed over all of them! I have turned down the path to divinity of my own free will! I have earned my place with my prowess and the blood of my enemies and shall continue to do so for as long as I live!" Quote from C: "One of the best friends I have ever had. He thrives on the adventure, excitement, and chaos that seems to follow him wherever he goes. The two of us are truly kindred spirits."
I will have to do C next since I used him in this one, but that will be tricky. C comes from outside the Forgotten Realms setting that I use.
2. Depends who you ask 3. Human 4. Blackguard 5. Self Quote: The heavens are as corrupt as the abyss. There is justice in this world, but everyone is too cowardly to pursue it. All evil must be cleansed, no matter the cost. Yes, I have given my soul to a 'fallen' solar. And why not? She only fell because she knew what had to be done to put an end to all that is evil, once and for all. She has given me the power to make this world not just a better place, but to be what it should be. Mercy only allows the wicked to prosper and harms the righteous. Fear me not, for if you are of pure heart then you have nothing to fear. 6. Quote from other: A nutter! A complete nutter! He was a good lad! He didn't need to die! Stealing is wrong and all, but his mother was dying. What was he supposed to do? Killed like a dog he was. We're terrified, you know? The lord's men, they bring us in for any infraction. And there is only one punishment, death. The only thing you can hope for is that he won't make an example out of you. What's the point of living in a world with no crime if you're afraid to even talk to your neighbor? Why can't he just find a dragon to kill and leave us to our lives?

Glad you like it! I did a BG1 run with a character like that. He was at Rep 20 until the fight before Sarevok, where the villain's mentor is lying on the ground. Took the man's head off and then strolled in like a boss. Reputation penalty? More like a fear bonus.
Even the slightest sign of evil meant death, regardless of who it was. He fought Xzar and Montarion after having them join the party (their bios say that you talked to them). He killed Kagain after the dwarf admitted that he didn't care about the people he was payed to protect. He killed Edwin because of his conversation, cut down Viconia, eviscerated Baeloth...brought vengeance down upon Shandalar. In the cloakwoods he did his utmost to kill both the druids and the hunters, because they were both guilty in his eyes. In Baldur's Gate he made sure to hunt down both of the feuding necromancers. Even in Beregost he killed the unarmed man in the bar rather than talk him down.
If he even goes through the full campaign, then when a new god is born, both heaven and hell will shudder. Well, that is until the other gods tear him to pieces because he'd be a threat to everyone and everything.
Aligment: Chaotic Neutral Race: Human Class: Fighter
Self Quote: I will need more swords, and arrows , maybe a catapult ... and where is Morgan, the Enchantress? Since the last time I died, she is the only one I trust.
Quote from other: Galahad is cursed. He claims to be the reincarnation of Duke Dragonheart, a wicked noble who made a fortune pillaging enemy lands. I am Morgan, a wizardress, the only one who could balance his accursed state. He serves me , and in exchange I try to keep the Duke from dominating his spirit.
(I'll eventually post my own illustration of the character)
1. Vidarr ( At least that is what is written on a piece of paper he hands you)
Str: 19 Dex: 16 Con: 19 Int: 15 Wis: 10 Cha: 12
2. True Neutral 3. Half Dwarf/ Half Duergar 4. Shadow Dancer 5. ... ( Vidarr just stares at you, he looks slightly annoyed. He then hands you another piece of paper that says " Help me kill mind eaters, then I answer any stupid questions.") 6. Don't take it personally, he doesn't talk to anyone. They say he has lived alone for many years in the Underdark ever since he was a child. His parents were hunted down by both the Dwarves and the Duergar for their forbidden affair. Hard to say who found them or how the child escaped and even managed to survive on his own. He won't say that's for sure.
His cha should be much lower. He's a mute who isn't that polite, has no social background as he grew up alone, and by any society has the 'wrong' blood.
I'd also reduce his strength to the high 18s to make him legal.

Shadow Dancers need a minimum of 12 Charisma. Charisma is measured by someones persuasiveness, personal magnetism and ability to lead. Because of his unique appearance he gets peoples attention, although he is still a Dwarf. Also he grew up in the Underdark alone.. One of the most dangerous places ever. So 19 strength reflects this accomplishment. He is of the thief class so the only other option was a flat 18 which just didn't seem to reflect this achievement in a role play manner in my opinion.
I think a strong argument could be made that an uncommunicative, surly jerks are not very good leaders, but ymmv.
Name: Danberl the Revolting Alignment: Chaotic Evil Race: Human Class: Cancer Mage (Barbarian Rogue for PreReqs) Str 15 Dex 16 Con 18 Int 13 Wis 16 Cha 16
Personal Quote/Villainous Soliloquy: Shove me aside to dwell in filthy rags, to scrounge the dirt, but I found things... things beneath the old sewers... You will learn fear, oh wretches, when the Great Plague returns! *cackle*
Quote from the Captain of the Guard: From our records, we know Danberl committed multiple homicides, and abducted many innocents, all while a child. His motivations are a mystery: no ransoms, no known thefts despite many opportunities, and not even any crazed demands. Don't let his rags fool you, he cultivates a pitiful appearance to avoid notice, but is extremely capable. He is to be killed on sight, if possible, but his trickery has killed more guards than I care to admit. The Guard is as helpless as children against this beast, if only we knew where his lair is, perhaps we could burn him out, or bury the wretch alive!
Danberl is a stock villain, one that prefers guerilla style tactics that allow the festering wounds he inflicts to decimate enemies, and he obviously seeks to use a plague to wipe out the city that 'wronged' him. He wears rag armour, and only uses weapons he has constructed. Not a true magic user, he dealt with horrible entities to enchant his scrounged, mskeshift weapons, trading many sacrifices for his power. His rags offer significant protection, and he has a massive tumor in his abdomen that offers him companionship (it is intelligent) and is his only true ally. He secretly infects city dwellers with mild diseases, using them to spy.
Background: A solitary cambion obsessed with vengeance, his favourite tool is his cleverness. His cutting remarks incite chaos and violence, and despite his rigidly lawful habits, he is an outlaw. He especially dislikes nobility that are exploitive.
Quote: You, a Princess? You dress like a buffoon and whine more than a drunk, I thought Princesses were classy! *dodges flying mug*
Quote From Another: If he wasn't so capable he'd have died long ago... Heck, I hear he started a revolution or two in neighbouring kingdoms!
1. Gorif 2. Chaotic Good 3. Halfling 4. Cleric/Thief 5. "Yeah, it's not exactly lawful, but I'm not exactly interested in justice, either. I'd rather just know truth." 6. "Most of the clergy from that new cult hates him, yeah. Something about how they're really worshiping an alien or something?"
@DreadKhan By Torm it's been ages since someone posted in this thread. Did you scour my posts to find it? It would have served you better to post in this threads sequel (which got significantly less traffic and I eventually gave up on)
But that sequel is pointless now since this thread is reborn, so thank you Khan!
Name: Paul McOrdinaryGuy Alignment: Cannot be detected. Race: Definately Human Class: Commoner
Quote: Why of course my name is a traditional and inconspicuous human male name, and I am obviously a simple, humble merchant. I even sell mundane goods! Nothing suspicious, mammal!
Quote From Another: I can't put my finger on it, but I think there might be something odd about Mr. McOrdinaryGuy... but don't tell him I said that!
Background: Mr. McOrdinaryGuy is actually a doppelganger casing a small town. He is quite inexperienced however, so he's not very believable.
One line that describes their personality that they would say: "Wow! You are ugly; I mean, not to say that is a bad thing or anything, I'm just saying your appearance is grotesque and disturbing! . . . This isn't helping, is it?"
One line from another person that describes them: "She is both the most clever and most foolish person I've ever met, though I am glad to call her friend." - Her best friend and fellow Bard, Cu Sidhe.
