((My character doesn't really care about whatever is currently going on behind him, and will feel no regret if you stay behind. There's three other people there too.))

((Who's Hedric and why did I boot him? ??? ?))
((borno's character. When he tried to run in front of the boy, he crit failed and ran into the three of you; you overshot your dodge roll and kicked him as he fell.  :P))

>That is horrible and disgusting. It will no doubt set you apart and create fear in your team mates. So of course.

((But hey, he should be glad that he took Leaps and Bounds; if he hadn't, I probably would have rolled to see if he took damage from him running facefirst/being kicked into/being pushed into a cobblestone street.))

He runs in front of the kid, cutting him off.
((No need to run in front of the kid and cut him off when he was already held in place. You usually run in front and cut someone off when they are moving. :P))
((But... But you were running! That's how you managed to shove my character into the gutter. :P ))

((Nope. My character was immobile and holding the boy's ankle. Hedric ran into both him and Mina.

...Do you want to develop Hedric into Ratherio V2? Spinal_Taper is here as the birdman so you can hug each other again.))

((derm is the most tame of your problems if you have already read Roll to Explore the Dungeon and read about borno's necromancer.

And dysfunctional parties are better. Without troublesome morons, the group is just a party of boring, bland and faceless generic adventurers.))

((You keep thinking that.

In RTRTD I was restrained by the elements of what I knew, and the whole reverse Summoning thing. In here I have free reign and chose a build that actively rewards me for creativity and more power within a shorter timeframe for doing so.

Fear mortals, the end is nigh.))

((And that is why I say borno is actually a bigger problem than you. You keep your characters attached to the "Derm Hellbinder" thing, while borno seriously tries to develop his character. But then in the process he fails terribly and the end result is incredibly amusing.

What I meant is that we already know what to expect from your character: acting megalomaniac, power-hungry and trying to cause damage to the party etc.

On the other hand, borno is unpredictable.

@borno: Yeah, this is actually a compliment, borno, take it. I like when your characters act in bizarre ways. Just remember to do it away from my characters.))

((I don't keep it attached! I improve upon the design! Each iteration shall reach greater heights than the last!

Actually yeah I kinda am attached, but I like spell casters and doing it any other way just feels weird.

Even if I didn't stick to the whole Derm thing, I wouldn't know what else to do. I am absolutely terrible at coming up with a backstory. It took fifteen minutes just to come up with what I had now even though I had a clear goal from the get go, and regardless of character I probably would have started slipping back into something similar anyway. At heart I will always try to find a way to use my skills in unexpected and destructive ways. It's the core of what I like to do. Attaching it to Derm was just a side effect. It's not a character, it's an archetype.

Plus, you know, it's fun, and who says I can't develop him in new ways? I wouldn't know how to do it, but it's possible.))

((I kinda know how it works. Making reasonably normal characters for me never works, they have to be problematic in some area. Although I do have comic-relief characters, which are actually fun to play.

And I'm not criticizing your affection and attachment to Derm Hellbinder, I'm just pointing out borno is hilarious and causes a very large amount of trouble without necessarily causing property damage or blowing things up. :P))
