Yeah, I was working on that assumption.

So for Sara's sorte of backstory at this point, she used to be a perfect little noble lady in that she obeyed her parents, listened during her churching and learning, didn't fight with a great sword and morningstar, you know, normal stuff. Then she met Mercutio, a local merchant's son from Verona who started getting away from the perfect little girl stuff. This angered many people and lead to the hiring an assassin to murder him when he went with his father to England. This had the opposite of the wanted effect because she stole some money from her parents, and borrowed some from Mercutio's father, got herself smuggled out to Portugal to learn to fight, and eventually meet the other characters.

Y'all do realize that English =/= Common, right? There isn't a Common in this setting, just count it as a free language.

As far as I remember it was a language shared by all party members, so it's Common in that sense. What would be the linga franca of this time? Latin, or French perhaps?

Ya, probably a mix of both. Except when it comes to Islamic countries. Then it would more likely be Arabic.

Fifth page save! Is this gonna happen, since GilgameshDespair's sheet looks fairly complete.

Gigla, and it's reasonably close. I think the important bits are there. Need to add the soldier background, and that's it, really.

It's okay Werty, no one cares if you get Gillymagsthispairofsocks name wrong. Just type in anything, it doesn't matter.

In fact, I encourage everyone to do this...

Muh, you don't need a lot. Just the framework. You've got a decent framework. All the dramatic staples.

Love! Revenge! Honor!

Isn't Sara a bit tall for a medium creature and/or humanity, excluding the mutant tall people who generally have a genetic disorder?

According to the book humans are always medium sized.

You miss my point, but talking of rulebooks, you do know how to play now, right? Because last time...

Hmm. At least in 3.5, under 8ft is still medium size, but it still seems too large for a human, really. Eh. Feel free to ignore the height comment, then.

Maybe she's got some orc blood in her.
I'll put up the OP tonight or tomorrow.

Just did a quick read through and due to our limited cash we should try to get the most bang for our buck by focusing our money on basic troops, with a few tactical support units. So maybe 100 gold of peasants. But Jesus, the supply caravans are really expensive... That seems unreasonably high to me, it's already gonna be a massive pain to defend them, especially if they take up a quarter of the money we get.

I'll make my rp introduction tomorrow morning, on mobile now.

They are very useful and needed though. And personally, I'm getting those armors at least given their cost. And the dark lord factor of having living armor as a personal guard.
