peaceful Tiefling Bard from the forest of sadness who is a recovering cannibal.

Now that's interesting.

nosy Half-orc Wizard from an underground city who always alliterates their anecdotes.

That will probably get annoying.

METICULOUS DRAGONBORN BARBARIAN FROM A SMALL FAMILY FARM WHO FAILED OUT OF EVERY GUILD GOING

DECISIVE DRAGONBORN CLERIC FROM THE PETRIFIED WOOD WHO HAS NO OTHER FAMILY BUT THE TEAM

CRABBY DRAGONBORN SORCERER FROM A SMALL TOWN TAVERN WHO ALWAYS NEEDS TO BE THE CENTRE OF ATTENTION

INCONSIDERATE HALFLING RANGER FROM A LOCAL STREET GANG WHO HAS SERIOUS DADDY ISSUES

This thing tickles my funny bone. Thanks for the share, JonB!

The only thing missing is a background. I mean, one can be inferred but if the background were explicit, the only things left to do would be to choose stats and proficiencies.

I'd also add a history function and a seed generator option.

Edit: WARY DRAGONBORN DRUID FROM A BOARDING SCHOOL FOR THE CHILDREN OF MIDDLE-CLASS WIZARDS WHO WAS RAISED BY GHOSTS

Wow.

"Dramatic Elf Wizard from a nocturnal town who doesn't believe in magic, ever"

Sure, I'm up for a challenge.
"Fireball?! Oh my God, I can't believe you! Everybody knows those don't exist, Becky! It's spontaneous minion combustion that HAPPENED to coincide with me pointing angrily at him and reciting one of those swears my Granddad taught me. I swear, either you get your head out of your ass or I am so done with this party."

DECISIVE TIEFLING WARLOCK FROM A RUINED CITY WHO ALWAYS REFERS TO INANIMATE OBJECTS AS 'SHES'

That... sounds like an interesting character flaw. Some sort of upbringing in a matriarchal society, perhaps.

Or even
SWEET HALF-ELF FIGHTER FROM A SMALL FAMILY FARM WHO IS TRYING TO GET OUT OF THE ADVENTURING BUSINESS TO SETTLE DOWN

Its a webcomic waiting to happen.

That character is now officially best character.

My other results seem downright reasonable:

"Driven Dragonborn Druid from a haunted castle who is downright racist towards living skeletons"

Yeah, I'd imagine you'd get sick of skeletons trying to murder you when you spend most of your life in a haunted castle.

"Emotional Elf Monk from a company of sellswords who grew up fat"

Poor thing is an emotional eater. The stress of being a sellsword does that to you.

"cool-headed Half-orc Ranger from the forest of sadness who takes great delight in identifying new beetle species"

Look, if you're from a place called the 'forest of sadness' you need to find those small things that make life worth it if you want to remain sane.

I don't generally have this problem, but what the hey...

cynical Dwarf Sorcerer from an unpure bloodline who is afraid of fire

intolerant Human Fighter from a boarding school for the children of middle-class wizards who is afraid the rest of the party will kill them if they try to leave

pensive Elf Ranger from a local street gang who can't stand the sight of blood

funny Gnome Fighter from a super religious upbringing who believes trees can speak to them and them alone

headstrong Dragonborn Barbarian from a slave owning city who has serious body image problems

GRAVE TIEFLING CLERIC FROM A MID-LEVEL CULT WHO DOESN'T BELIEVE IN MAGIC, EVER
I'd so play this one, it'd probably be funny as hell.
Though it'd probably just end up like Eridan.
"IT'S NOT MAGIC IT'S WHITE SCIENCE"
Bonus points if your deity is whichever one is the Deity of Magic.
BOISTEROUS HALF-ORC BARD FROM A HAUNTED CASTLE WHO IS DOWNRIGHT RACIST TOWARDS LIVING SKELETONS
I suppose one can only stand so many renditions of "Spooky Scary Skeletons" before one has a meltdown.

"RELIABLE DRAGONBORN ROGUE FROM THE WET DESERT WHO HAS A DEBILITATING FEAR OF WIDE OPEN SPACES"
How in the hell can he be "reliable" when he's from a desert and is afraid of wide open spaces.

Fuck some of this shit is funny.

crass Dwarf Paladin from a recently erupted volcano village who believes trees can speak to them and them alone

But all the trees are now burned down so I must be feeling really lonely right now :(

"Driven Dragonborn Druid
Try saying that 5 times fast :)

OT: This thing is great! Just a few funny ones I've saved.
"unpredictable Tiefling Paladin from a pompous wizard school who was brought up to be a librarian"
"fearless Dwarf Paladin from the worst brothel in town who bangs on about their genealogy to everyone"
"flamboyant Tiefling Fighter from a fallen kingdom who has cheated death more times than they deserved"
"gentle Human Sorcerer from a maximum security prison who secretly became an adventurer to impress a love interest"
"flirtatious Half-elf Barbarian from a carnival freak show who can't talk to girls"
"soulless Halfing Bard from a travelling band who hates music"
Personal favorite: "overemotional Tiefling Fighter from a string of terrible places to live who can't silence the voices"

Can we get one for FFG's RPG lines (WH40K and Star Wars)?

brave Human Barbarian from a nocturnal town who is completely colour blind.

Now that would suck.

crabby Dragonborn Paladin from the now dry swamp who is a recovering gambling addict.

inconsiderate Gnome Fighter from a town that only ever bartered for goods who gets nervous speaking in front of crowds.

Ouch.

enthusiastic Elf Druid from an illusory forest who saw their whole family consumed by a gelatinous cube.

One would wonder why he is still enthusiastic after that happened.

gloomy Human Monk from a strict monastery who doesn't understand the concept of politeness.

Sounds fun.

5 tries and every fucking time Half-Orcs. The fuck?
I hate Orcs.
Those useless brutes that only know how to bash someone with something heavy.
Fuck Orcs!
BUT
There is one thing even worse than Orcs.
Argonians [sub][sub]No, those aren't even sentient, they only mimic sentience. So they don't count[/sub][/sub]
HALF-ORCS!
Not only they are scum of the Earth, they are also insult to the part that isn't Orc.
Double fuck Half-Orcs!!!
One day, one glorious day we will feed the soil with blood and flesh of those filthy animals.

P.S. It safe to assume that this random generator isn't for me.

Check this shit out, I'm going to be a fucking Bossy Halfling Barbarian from an isolated monastery who is afraid the rest of the party will kill them if they try to leave.

Short, hairy, bossy, axe wielding? Somehow the website managed to skip a D&D character and rolled me.
