D&D 3.5e
Campaign is Descent into Avernus that our gigachad DM converted from 5e to 3.5e
>plot on paper
You go onto an epic quest to save a city that was sucked up into Avernus for a grand sacrifice orchestrated by Zariel. You start some time before that event then you find the culprits in the material world before being going into an expedition to Avernus (Hell) itself to try and save as many citizen as possible.
>meanwhile in practice
You get bamboozled into higher and higher stakes quests. What starts as "find a couple of weird fellas in the woods" culminates in getting scammed with a one-way ticket to Hell.
>Arrianna Luna Gladebottom
Arrianne is a relatively young, cute redneck elf from bumfuck nowhere place near Snakewood (a Forest/swamp renown for absolutely fucking nothing). She is a baker and and runs a small market stall in nearest city of Elturel (guess what happens to it) where she sells raspberries, snake pelts and pastries. She lives like this for 67 years before deciding to have some fun, and one day decide to guide a bunch of unsavory individuals innawood to find some cultists. Arrianne is very friendly, tolerant, open, polite, patient and has an overall positive outlook on people and society (something that will bite her in the ass very hard the moment the story starts)
>Arrianne mechanically/party role
Ranger/Scout combo. Ranged martial with a lot of movement (60ft). Her role in combat is flanking. Using her huge movement speed to circle the battlefield and attack enemies from side/read. Her role outside of combat is a skillmonkey with primary focus on social skills. I took Zen Archery as a feat to completely ignore the usual dex build for ranged play and put all points in WIS and INT so I got tons of skill points per level.

Just ask and I'll tell more.
