## Step 1: talk to your DM Ask your DM what you have asked here but a little differently, along with the other player who is concerned, so that the DM knows that this is a concern for you both: *How do our back stories fit into this campaign? We so far have only learned how the barbarian's back story fits into the campaign.* When that question is answered, it will hopefully generate a discussion with the DM about where you are going with the campaign, or aren't.
