So, at the beginning of the campaign I had the idea to set aside a quest or challenge of some sort for each individual member of our group.
The players:
The leader is a cleric of Kord, and one of the two front liners in the group. He's human, chaotic good. My idea for him was that he would have some sort of contest of strength with a mysterious stranger(who's actually an aspect of Kord himself). I'm not sure what form this contest will take, but I have it planned out for later levels(suggestions on what level would be appropriate for an encounter with one's own deity would be awesome).
The magus, a sylph woman(pathfinder sylph, air elemental plane touched), has a bit more than a few screws loose, despite being a genius spellcaster and swordsman. Her broken mind has at times helped her out of difficult places, and other times just exacerbated problematic situations. I'm not sure what to do for her yet, but she's the other front liner. She has two personalities, one chaotic neutral, and one lawful evil. She's also being stalked by a vampire bard who is even crazier than she is- The vampire is in love, but has been expressing that love by delivering "gifts"... small dead animals.
The druid of the group is a hill dwarf who so far has just been tagging along; he's a worshipper of obaddhai . Lately he's been having dreams about finding a giant white stag in a forest he's never been in. The stag runs away just as he tries to approach it. It's a quest hook, but as yet no quest to accompany it. Ideas here would be most welcome.
Ranger... I've asked him what motivates his character, but as a new player(and a fairly young one at that), he has put very little thought into this. I plan to be more persistent in the future. Since he has not given me much to work with, anything that might attract rangers in general would be helpful.
The human rogue in the group is another extremely new role player, and I really wanna bait him. The first time he had the opportunity to fight one on one was with a clone of himself, picked from a mirror. My idea is that the clone represents his opposite. Since the rogue currently tends toward evil, his clone tends more towards good.
Newest addition: One of our players has just rolled a new character. Now he is playing a tiefling alchemist from a slave trading and fiercely capitalistic magocracy to the east. He left his home city-state because the culture there was particularly hostile to him(the tails and vestigial wings might have something to do with that). Since this is a new character, any ideas at all? :)
