You don't have to rush and state after every char sheet for acceptance, though I do understand the enthusiasm  :P

While we languish in timespace, could you explain {Inventory} and {Traits} more?

Rawr,I don't feel well right now but I will.

Traits are any and all special talents you may have,such as biotics in your system that allow you to use telekinesis,or anything else. It may be mutations,they may be natural,etc.

Inventory isn't that much to explain,just anything you start off owning.

Another note:

Set a limit.

People may be tempted (though not much on Bay12, as far as I see) to go all Mary Sue with their characters.

You really can both sig it.
But... That would break the laws of sigging! We can't have everyone running around with the same quotes. IT MAKES THEM UNFUNNY FASTER!

Name: Himius the Brown
Age: 41
Height: 5' 9"
Appearance: A bearded man in brown robes and a pointed hat. His left arm appears to be made of stone, and he is a bit more muscular than you would expect a wizard to be.
Inventory: Robes, Wizard hat, Steel plated staff (enchanted so the holder can count it as part of their arm for touch-range magical abilities)
Dimension: B
Anything else you can think of:
Traits:
- Earth Magic: Himius can summon, feel through, or reshape stone/dirt/metal, though he can only effect an item he did not summon himself if he is touching a part of that item (and the range of this effect is limited to nearby parts of very large items). Tougher material such as metal takes more time and effort to make or manipulate, and he can only summon items to reletively close-by places he can see.
- Elemental Arm: Himius has replaced his left arm with an earth elemental familiar. It is tougher than normal stone and can change shape, but does not count for making physical contact with items.

...You almost sound like you are joking. Getting a few super abilities at the cost of several mostly unrelated flaws is almost the definition of min-maxing (which is not the same thing as being a Mary Sue, but can have similar effects).
I am not saying your character is bad, but I am saying that miscellaneous flaws (like the acid vulnerability) tend to do relatively little for balance unless they are things you can reasonably expect to come up often (like the clumsiness).

It is on the GM's volition on whether to start his game at his own time. All of us are separated by timezones, and thus, are ready at our own time.  :P

Hit is up, bro.

I was joking, I was just seeing if that character was actually going to be accepted. :P Sorry for being curious.
