"Ashes to ashes, dust to dust"

## General Overview

Mr. Hunky Dory is a glam rock musician based in Phandelver. He's an ex member of Lt. Bell Pepper's Hearts Club Band.

## Biography

### Early Years

Dory was born into a family living off the streets with his mother Ginger. Unable to support her family, Ginger decided to give Dory up for adoption at *St. Gillian's Ministries*.

He stayed at the orphanage until he turned 14. Eventually, he was adopted by Harrison Cash, an ex guitar player for the band *Chop-Kick*. Under the teachings of his father, Dory learned the basics of playing guitar.

In his teenage years, Dory struggled with his sexual identity and was frequently ridiculed for crossdressing in school.

### Adulthood

Dory started off as a solo artist that mostly played for bars, and at the very most, obscure radio stations. In need of a guitarist, the future lead singer of BP's HCB, Roddy Peppers, recruited Dory into his band, along with drummer Bingo and Bassist Stinger Adams. The band would go on to top charts and eventually land on number 4 on Vinyl Time's Top 100 Most Popular Bands.

Unfortunately behind the scenes, Dory had trouble getting along with his other bandmates. Dory had no trust or respect for Stinger Adams for allegedly being a sex offender. This lead to many offstage fights and slurs being thrown around. Dory and Bingo would argue over creative decisions with each album. Their rivalry has since cooled down, and to this day they remain friends.

The shaky relationship between Dory and Roddy is perhaps the most prolific of the bunch. During the 2015 Stone Angel Tour, Dory developed an addiction to cocaine. Roddy attempted to get Dory out of his addiction, but no matter what, Dory insisted that everything was fine and that he was perfectly healthy. He would go on to have a heart attack on stage.

After the incident, the clash between Dory and Roddy skyrocketed to an all time high. Roddy felt as though he couldn't be allowed to play in the band due to his health. When he informed Dory that he was going to be left out of the band, Dory attempted to strangle him. He was unsuccessful, as Roddy used a pocket knife to slash him on the torso. Shortly after, Dory finally left the band.

## Personality

Hunky Dory is noticeably very strange. He possesses the mannerisms of a refined upper class citizen, but can change to an unhinged personality without notice. He tends to "go too far" whenever "dealing justice." This has caused him to get into disputes, and has fueled his controversial career.
