Basically, good old inventory-based democrabrain adventure in the vein of Man of SCIENCE! and You Are Wizard!, but set in a steampunk-esque world with light fantasy elements.

To start it off: Known civilization lives in caves: the air above ground drives most sentients mad, making simple things like geniuine oak wood worth a fortune. Some places don't even believe in the surface, a la TTGL.  The world is full of tunnels and really big freaking caverns, normally perfect for generic dark elves, but in this case mostly the home of plain old humans. As for this mythical steampunk, it's steam engines and electric motors: internal combustion is not a thing, except in humans of course. Science is also fairly applicable to magic, which mostly applies to certain magical creatures: magic is not a thing that most can learn, discover, or even be born with. Basically, wizards are not  a thing, and magic items are unlikely to be a thing.

Spoiler: useless intro (click to show/hide)

Anyways, as said, you are a (gender) (race) (material) miner, mining stuff near the small town of Starta. It's lonely, but you have comfortable housing in your little mine shaft, and it makes pretty good money. You even get to have some fancyness!~

So CHOOSE YOUR (PARENTHESES OBJECTS)!

Gender: Duh!

Race: Human is self explanatory. Dwarf is self-explanatory. Dark elves are like drow, only less bastardly and more independent. You can also be an elemental, of... pick up to three: Water, Earth, Fire,  Metal. Sub-types are also applicable. Elementals can take apparently human form and do apparently human things in addition to being  made of element and all. They're very hard to kill, but rather limited if they run into opposing elements. (No, you can't pick both Water and Fire. Steam is part of Water! )

Material: Feel free to make stuff up.

Bonus points for name and appearance.

I am Male Space-Lizard Adamantine Miner!

Name: Ar-lo Ad'heim
Description: Has a medium length tail, no hair or horns, a dark green tone to his scales, and is quite small in size.

Starting Clothing: Toga, Sandals, and some sort of Leaf Crown.

Name: Skarmy
Gender: Robot Female ish?
Race: Elemental Shaped Like A Skarmory
Material: Despite most common misknowings, is actually titanium, with a tungsten internal storage unit and perhaps a teensy bit of polonium in the cores of my eyes maybe?  Also, some kind of redstone infused into the wings, for, well, redstone stuff. And fast movement, let's not forget that.
Appearance:
Except underground. About 6 feet tall at full extension.
Likes: Ripping the beards off of people sometimes. Smashing stone apart with my face. Making phosphourous rating sparks by clicking my beak. And uh. Oh yeah. Flying (gliding?) whenever there's a cave just barely big enough to do so without crashing. And making the most adorable chicken sounding squawk ever. Sitting on stuff. Cats. Nice people. Waaaater.
Dislikes: People who are wielding 3 handed spoon maces. Lava. Consuming Ethanol. Cubic Zirconium Mustard.
Starting 10 units: Redstone!

Quick question, doesn't being a lizard imply not having any hair unless stated otherwise? X3

Not necessarily!

[Aklyon]

Isn't that the same kind of reasoning that Argonians do (or do not) have breasts because of?

[Projeck37]

Waha~ Aklyon~

[iceball3]

Isn't that the same kind of reasoning that Argonians do (or do not) have breasts because of?

Well, they WERE explicitly stated otherwise though, at least, in the fact that they do have them.

[Twi]

I'm not sure if I should be angry right now.

*Throws Aklyon at Iceball*

[Aklyon]

Are we playing Tacticus now, or just using the silly command?

[Twi]

*Twi considers arbitrary thread lock*

But seriously guys. Less derail, plox?
