Tonight our normal DM was away from the table, so another of the group ran a Pathfinder one-shot that shocking took on session!
I ended up making a Chapion for it. In the course of trying to figure out what magic items he should have I came up with a long backstory for him, with mini adventures along the way. One included a roll in the hay with a sea witch that she was so pleased with she gifted him a necromancied horse. Wonderful.
Not a stitch of the backstory came up.
What a game!
