The common background is: You have just raided the tomb of Khi Osque, and prevented some zombies from killing a nearby village. You have found some treasure and have decided to come to Amanad, famous for its healing baths, to recover, spend your gold, and plan some new adventure.
This is a remote part of Golarion.

Name: Merisiel
Ancestry: Elf
Gender: Female

Background: Merisiel’s parents were exiled from the elven kingdom of Kyonin. To survive in exile, they took up the trade of smuggling, though they always felt it was beneath them. In a deal gone wrong, they were murdered while Merisiel was still young. Human friends of her parents took the child in, but, though she grew to physical adulthood at almost the same rate as her human peers, her emotional maturation was much slower. Feeling out of place, she ran away from home, looking for an elven family who would take her in—but never found one. Instead, she eventually found herself taking up her parents’ trade. Her experience has left her emotionally distant and stand-offish.

Name: Carver the Butcher
Ancestry: Orc, with Human Blood (Half-Orc)
Gender: Male

Background: A hunter, butcher, and one fine cook. Carver was the chief butcher and cook for several well known Orc Generals, until those generals eventually died in some war or battle. He took his savings and opened a small deli for a while, until it was attacked and burned down by zombies. He helped stop the zombies from murdering and burning down the rest of the town, and then joined in with some others that helped out to find the source and kill all the zombies. He's come to the baths to heal up, and figure out what to do. He didn't get insurance on his deli, and now all he owns he's carrying with him, not enough to reopen the shop, but he's not keen on being a bum or being homeless, so he's considering taking up the adventurer's life, until he can make enough money to open up his own restaurant someplace nice, with less zombies.
