Alright, I think I know what I want to do for my char. I'm pretty happy with what I've got, but there's bits I'd like to clean up.

Race: Half-Elf. I like being a half-elf.
Racial Power: Sorcerer AoE Burning Hands effect. my pact blade works with it, and it gives me a Cha-based "melee' range useable AoE.

Abilities: Str 8, Con 14+2, Dex 13, Int 14, Wis 10, Cha 16+2. I think that works out. I don't need wisdom or strength, and dex gets me access to mobility feats, which are important.

Feats: Bardic Dilettante. Gets me Diplomacy as a trained skill, and a minor-action heal once per day.
Future Feats: I'll likely take improved star pact at second level, and the Half-Elf, Elf, and Human feats all look nice for future picks.

Skills: Diplomacy; Arcane, Bluff, Intimidate, and Insight. Insight would be my weakest at 7, which is still respectable. I like how the creepy, soul-sucking warlock is the party face.

Equipment: Pact Blade +1, Leather Armor, Adventuring Gear, Grappling Hook, however much gold I have left. (750 + starting - equipment)

XP: 805, same as everybody.

Alignment: Good. I just cant bring myself to play a bastard long-term. They are LOADS OF FUN in short bursts, but they get boring after a short while.

Background: Merchant, i guess? It doesn't really matter. I need to type up a meaningful back story, and writing short fiction is not something I am particularly good at.

A short outline with some ideas for what kinds of things your character was shaped by would be fine.  For example, for John's background this would be something like

"John sold himself into slavery to save his sister, and his master trained him and made him a bodyguard after seeing him fight some wild animals.  His master later freed him to avoid having to deal with his brother.  John uses a hammer because that's what his job was as a slave.  He would much rather just interpose himself between his friends and danger than try to talk."
