Spoiler: Hoskuldr Hedinson (click to show/hide)

Name: Hoskuldr Hedinson
Gender: Male
Class: Ministorum Priest
Handedness: Right
Appearance:
Hoskuldr stands at about 5'8. He has a somewhat lean, muscular build. His head is shaved bald, and his face bears scars on his left eye and on his lip. His eyes burn with divine ferocity, and his face is perpetually set in a grim expression. His arms and backs are covered in cuts from self-mutilation and punishments as a child. His arms have self-carved tattoos of Death World origins, due to his familial respect to his Death World ancestors. They twist and turn, ornately decorated but wrinkled due to the scabbing. A good job considering he did it himself as a child.
Personality:
Hoskuldr has a near suicidal love for the Emperor, like every other Imperial Citizen. Or, so he believes should. His need to praise and glorify the Emperor was self taught when he was but a child, and he believes that he needs to put his knowledge to use. He also has a deep respect for every citizen who praises the Emperor, but it is shattered when these people renounce their loyalty to the Imperium and Emperor of Man. 
Backstory:
Hoskuldr was the son of two Forge Worlders, with roots tracing far back to Fenris. His parents were drunkards who spent their free time from the forge drinking and gambling. They beat him every time they lost money to their gambling. He spent most of his time listening to an old man, who preached everyday of the greatness of the Emperor. He was quickly infatuated with the Emperor and his teachings, and soon he tried to show his parents what he believed. His parents scoffed and berated him. Hoskuldr did the right thing to do.

He brought this to the local Preacher, albeit he fudged the story a bit, who in turn brought this to a Ordo Hereticus Inquisitor. The Inquisitor brought swift judgement to the two "heretics", and Hoskuldr was taken in by the Preacher and his clergy.

Regiment Bonuses decided during Regiment Creation

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Forge World: +3 to any two of the following characteristics. Intelligence, Perception, Toughness.
All forge world characters start with Common Lore (Adeptus Mechanicus), Common Lore (Tech), Linguistics (Low Gothic), Linguistics (Techna Lingua), and Logic.
(Forge World) Blessed of the Omnissiah: The Omnissiah grants many blessings upon his favoured subjects, and many mysteries of technology are revealed to those so blessed. Forge world characters start with the Peer (Adeptus Mechanicus) Talent.
(Forge World) Rites of Rewiring: Forge world characters can choose to start with one of the following Talents: Technical Knock or Weapons Tech.
(Forge World) Isolated by Machines: Forge world characters suffer a –10 penalty to any Interaction Tests made to interact with characters who are not also from a forge world or initiates of the Adeptus Mechanicus.
(Forge World) Starting Wounds: Forge world characters begin play with –1 starting Wounds.

Choleric Commander: Start with the Rapid Reaction talent.

Drop Troops: +3 Agility, -3 Fellowship. Start with Operate (Aeronautica). Starting Talent Catfall.

Infiltrators: Starting Skill Stealth, starting talent Blind Fighting,  When two or more characters from a Squad with this Doctrine are called upon to make a Stealth Test, one of the characters making the Test may choose to make his Test at a –10 penalty. If he succeeds, one other character making the Test may use the first character’s Agility Characteristic for the Test instead of his own. The characters must be
within 10 metres of one another to use this ability.

Sharpshooters: Starting Aptitude Ballistics Skill. Starting Talents Deadeye SHot.

Covert Strike: Members of this regiment gain a +10 bonus to all Logistics Tests made to acquire chameleoline cloaks or armour, clip/ drop harnesses, rebreathers, survival suits, auspex/ scanners, demolitions charges, grav chutes, multi- keys, multicompasses, stummers, static generators, and any other such equipment designed for stealth and infiltration. The Logistics bonus also covers the following stealth weapons: needle rifles, needle pistols, and sniper rifles, as well as the Silencer and Tox Dispenser upgrades.

Honor Bound (Pride Over Life): Members of this regiment must pass a Difficult (–10) Willpower Test to refuse any formal challenge or ignore any other major slight to their honour. If a character from this regiment succeeds on the Test, he sees the bigger picture and ignores the challenge or attempt to goad him into action. If he fails on the Test, however, he must engage the individual in question (either in a duel to settle matters in a formal and stylised fashion or simply in a brawl to express himself with his fists) or suffer a –10 penalty to Willpower Tests for the remainder of the session. This penalty is cumulative should he refuse multiple challenges to his dignity over the course of a single session. The Game Master can modify the difficulty of the Test—and the scale of the effects of failing it—as he deems appropriate to the situation.

Lost Homeworld (Survivors Guilt): Members of this regiment begin play with 2d10 Insanity Points.

Lost Homeworld (Last Survivors): Each time a Squad from this regiment requests replacement members (to replace lost Comrades), the Game Master rolls 1d10 instead of having the recruits come from the original core of the regiment. On a result of 3–4, the recruits come from the original survivors of the regiment, members of other Squads within the regiment who also lost members. On a result of 5–10, they come from another regiment that has recently suffered terrible losses and happens to be near enough for the Departmento Munitorum to group the two regiments together. On a result of 1–2, however, the Squad receives no reinforcements at all, and must soldier on until its
members can put in another request for troop support.

Lose Homeworld (Starting Talent): Choose one race for the Hatred talent to be applied to.

The Few (Limited Numbers): When a Squad from this regiment requests reinforcements (to replace fallen Comrades), it must make a Hard (–20) Logistics Test if most of the regiment is actively deployed or an Ordinary (+10) Logistics Test if a significant portion of the regiment is not currently in the field (these Tests already include situational modifiers except those added at the GM’s discretion). If it fails, the regiment simply has no reinforcements it can spare for the Squad, and its members must soldier on until its members can put in another request for troop support.

Hardened Fighters: +2 Weapons Skill, Starting Talent Street Fighting.

Hatred (Orks): When fighting opponents ofthat group in close combat, the character gains a +10 bonus toall Weapon Skill Tests made against them. The character also finds it difficult to back down from a fight with his hated foe and must make a Willpower Test to retreat or surrender when fighting them, unless massively outnumbered or outclassed.

I've got my description mostly done, and am starting on my history. Could I get a summary of what a Forge World is like, so I'm less likely to make mess the continuity up?

http://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Forge_World

God I'm sooo fucking stupid, why didn't I back up all of my notes. Whhhyyyyyyy.

If you want a quicker response to questions, go to the #Warband IRC channel on the freenode IRC servers.

Experience: 50/600 exp
350 xp spent for +10 Perception
100 xp spent for Awareness
100 xp spent for +5 Intelligence

How much XP do I get?

Specialists get... 300 exp? IIRC.

[Bdthemag]

Yeah, I think priests are considered Specialist roles so they only get 300 XP to spend.

[Caellath]

Am I doing this right?
Can I be a Priest? (I downloaded the pdf of the rulebook)

I suppose so and since the GM didn't manifest against it, I also believe you can be a priest. I could probably help you more if you got to #Warband on the freenode IRC server, though.

[Cheesecake]

Took a while, but I finished my sheet!

[Bdthemag]

Excellent, we have six sheets now. I may just end up starting the game and letting the people who finished their sheets play, and just throw in anyone else who submits their character sheets in later.

Spoiler: Description (click to show/hide)

Aleksandr is a tall, wiry man, standing at a good 1.9 meters, in his forties with a shock of fading wispy brown hair. His chin carries a similar ruff of short, none too delicately trimmed beard. His eyes are a dark shade of green-brown. He wears a thick gray jumpsuit, with fireproof hiking boots and several pockets carrying flaps for closing. He has a thin, tight-lipped mouth, and rough, darkened skin. He moves with confidence, not out of grace, but seemingly out of determination. Aleksandr is generally grim and sardonic in manner. He hates orks unequivocably for destroying his homeworld, and he harbors resentment toward the higher-ups of the Imperium for their inefficiency, blaming their lack of action for the loss of Vniedik. He doesn't show this anger through passion or blind rage, however, but rather holds a grudge and works more quietly to avenge his people. He has no fear of danger, and throws himself at danger without reserve when called upon. He is a fair shot out of necessity. He has a remarkable will, and is difficult to kill. While not slow witted, he has little regard for higher learning, which he feels are ancillary in the recent situation. Similarly, he follows few of the Adeptus Mechanicus customs and rites, leaving the upkeep of the spirits to the more ethereally talented. His combat gear features a heavy set of flak armor, a back-mounted regulation grav-chute with his bag secured to it, the standard las carbine for situations requiring a bit more subtly, and, most prominently, a large tri-barreled behemoth of a las weapon used for situations requiring a bit of stopping power. He also wears a silver amulet under his jumpsuit.

WHAT HAPPENED WHILE I WAS GONE?

I leave for five days and suddenly two people are gone! What the hell? I am so very confused.

Shenanigans. With multiple accounts and fake pregnant people.

[Harbingerjm]

Also Karen Traviss.

[Rolepgeek]

Well then, we need a Sergeant or an Operator. Any preferences?

[Cheesecake]

An operator would be nice.

[Rolepgeek]

Well.

40 Willpower. Guess I'm a psyker.

Actually, that statset looks great for a Priest or Sergeant.
