Seriously this opens up so much creativity for the DM.

"This person seems familiar to you, but you're not sure why."

"You think you've been here before, but you're not sure when."

"Being on a ship feels like home, but you have no memories of ever being on a ship."

"Upon seeing the ruins of the village you find yourself overcome with sorrow, you feel like you've lost something important but you don't know what."

Part of the adventure can be a quest to reunite them with their lost memories.

DM: "Alright. Everyone else, please make up and write down two things about this player's backstory and let me know. Do not tell each other what you wrote. I'll choose which ones I'll use plus may throw in a couple myself" evil laugh

Jokes on you, I’m into that shit!

Right? I’d love a group assisted backstory for a character, it would be like having them with me whenever I play that role.

I like the sound of that

I'm going to have to keep that idea in my back pocket for later for sure
