OOC INFORMATIVE TEXT

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
OK guys some stuff *cough*broken computer*cough* has come up and I haven't been able to post for a long while. Now that that's out of the way let me explain the concept of the  forum game.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

WHAT IS THIS?

The Idea of the game is that you play as the leader of a small army and that you are trying to fulfill your goals of World Domination, or, failing that, Regional Domination! This is a Suggestion Game, once you've all come to a consensus on the main character and the setting we can start the IC thread, whichever one gets the most votes is canon.

1.)Zombie-Infested Wasteland
2.)Mundane Modern Technology
3.)Low-Fantasy Medieval
4.)High-Fantasy Medieval

Suggestion:

Spoiler:  Proposed Warlord (click to show/hide)

Name: Phyllis Norton
Gender: Girl

Race: Human
Profession: Retired high school art teacher

Setting Choice: 1+4) High Fantasy Medieval-Zombie-Infested Wasteland

Spoiler: Nirble, Cutebold Animist (click to show/hide)

Name: Nirble
Gender: Male
Age: 12 / Young Adult
Appearance: A smallish creature, with eyes of fiercely glowing yellow, ochre fur and floppy, dog-like ears. Nirble has taken to wearing bone-charm-bracelets, and a feather-adorned gemstone-fetish.
Race: Kobold (Cutebold Variant)
Profession: Animist
Personality: Trained in the truths of the mystical influences upon the world since a young age, Nirble is a wilful sort for his people. He has a keen eye, and a good feel for social interactions. Somewhat ambitious, he is prone to overestimating his own abilities, and also sports a scrupulous streak.

Stats
Strength: 1
Toughness: 1
Agility: 1
Willpower: 3
Intelligence: 3
Charisma: 2

Yes, this is actually a serious suggestion.
Think of it, tribes of cutebolds, braving the magical zombie-apocalypse - who else but these lovely scavengers, would be more suited to such a task?
About anyone else, surely, but that just might make it all the more fun~

I am a huge kobold fan and necromancers are awesome, so I'll allow this suggestion. I'll repost in one day, whichever suggestion has the most votes wins.

Also, what do you mean by Animist escaped lurker?

Also, what do you mean by Animist escaped lurker?

Well... an animist? 
Best known archetypes are Shamans and Druids, though there are untold "religions", that basically assume that the world around them, and especially nature, are alive. Or rather, more than alive, possibly and variedly populated with spirits, ghosts, guardians, and magical beasts. Often enough, ancestor worship, is also included in that mix.

This sheet looks good, If somewhat exploity... 

[crazyabe]

it isn't exploity, It's running off the bounds you gave us, Besides what do you think is exploity about it?

A necromancer with a high willpower could control the undead he came across and eventually he'd have an unstoppable army, in theory. With a lot of very high rolls, In theory...
