Alright I'll fix my character up. Do you want us to show known languages anywhere?

[Insanegame27]

Name: Zachary Miller
Race: Human (+2 points whatever)
Class: Marksman
Age: 26
Description: Zachary Miller has naturally white hair and, unusual of his race, brilliant white eyes. There is a shallow ripped scar over his larynx from an earlier conflict. His skin is an extremely pale white. His underclothes are made of a black synthetic material and his overclothes are, again, brilliant white, made of polar bear fur.
Backstory: Zachary Miller should be very infamous in many lands. Keyword is should. He has never directly been caught in his nefarious acts, excepting that one time when the King walked in on him and the Queen shaggi- no more elaboration on that shall happen. He is directly responsible for over fifty assassinations of well-known people. Case in point. Zachary is a very sneaky person who loves causing trouble. His arrival in the lands of St Nick cannot bode well.

I see a problem with stat points. The Char sheet says all stats have a minimum of 8, whereas the mechanics spoiler says you distribute 8 points and then add class and race bonuses, please clarify?

[Emma]

But then in the character sheet it says (8 + class + race).

My bad, sorry. You can choose to spend your eight on whatever you like, but your class and race bonus have a set amount that must be added to the stats they're supposed to be added to.

[Lord_lemonpie]

Clarified the stat stuff in the OP, the character sheet now says what it's supposed to say.

Spoiler: Snowman Paladin (click to show/hide)

Name: Morozhenoye Chelovek (Moroz for short)
Race: Snowman
Class: Paladin
Age: ?
Description: Morozhenoye is a well-proportioned snowman, with a well-proportioned lower body:torso:head ratio. He wears a traditional top hat, with a green ribbon above the brim, and wears a red scarf around his neck, embroidered with the symbol of St. Nikolai. His tough arms are made of hardy, tough, oak-like branches, and with them he wields his icy blade with skill. However, one permanent scar lies above his carrot nose; he wears an eyepatch, made of a triple-reinforced bit of cloth from an ugly Christmas sweater, over what was formerly his right coal-lump.

In personality, Morozhenoye is a grimly jovial gentleman. He greatly enjoys a good time, a hearty laugh, and a mug of hot cocoa, and is kind and respectful to all he meets. However, he is a bit of a loner, and is sometimes slow to trust others as a result of experiences he had in the field; however, he has largely recovered from the depression he experienced for months after his first retirement. In battle, Ledyanoy tries to avoid killing when possible, and gives his opponents a respectful and clean death when it is unavoidable.

Backstory: Moroz, who had been devoutly faithful to the god of cheer and the causes he stood for, was once a member of the Order of St. Nicholas. His skills were honed sharp by his friend and mentor, dwarven veteran Gedor Babin. After some time, he became one of the finest knights in the land, and his mentor, having taught him all he could, disappeared from the order. After some time, a great need for his skill arose, and he led a group of fellow snowmen into battle against the servants of Krampuz in a bid to destroy the fiend once and for all. However, as he and his fellow warriors cut down their enemies, Moroz's closest friend, Gedor, appeared on the side of the enemy. Without a word, Gedor smote Moroz's right eye with his blade, crumbling the soft coal to dust, before retreating behind enemy lines, never seen again.

Moroz remains bitter over both the loss of his eye and his friend, and for years his skills rusted and he retreated into drink and sadness. However, in recent times, he has been taken from his depression by one question: Why? What happened on that day? Where had his friend gone, and why did he fight for Krampuz? Moroz, motivated by this curiosity, once again took up his blade and shield, and now looks for any lead he can to find his former friend.

Hey, I wanna play a paladin! 

[Lord_lemonpie]

Some lore has been added. Planning to start the game somewhere this weekend, probably on Sunday.

Also, for everyone's information, I'm not a rule-heavy guy, and I expect you to not be a loophole exploiter too. Rule of cool sometimes wins, and I can allow a lot of customization, but my spells and stuff are probably poorly written and maybe even unbalanced, so I kindly ask you to not be a munchkin.

[My Name is Immaterial]

I'll throw a sheet up on Friday, after finals.

[Lord_lemonpie]

Once Immaterial has posted his sheet, we'll start. Everyone thus far is accepted.

[My Name is Immaterial]

Really sorry about that! I know it really sucks to have to wait on a player!

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Name: Old Man Morozko
Race: Human
Class: Winter Mage (Warmth)
Age: He doesn't rightly remember. Old.
Description: An elderly man, with a stunningly white beard. His face is rosy red from the cold, wrinkled by age and laugh lines. He carries a knobbly staff carved from a spruce tree, and wears a rather ratty and plain animal fur coat.
Backstory: A wandering hermit from the northern forests, Old Man Morozko was born in one of the nomadic tribes many winters ago, its name long forgotten to him. His caring heart and warm smile drew him the attention of the tribe's druid, who singled him out for a possible candidate for succession. Old Man Morozko, of course, wasn't called that when he was a child, didn't take well to druidism, much to the chagrin of his tutor. A few years later, an anthropologist from Navida was touring the northern forest, and passed through Old Man Morozko's village, "adopting" him to present as an example of "Primitive Northern Cultures". In preparation to present him, he needed to be civilized a bit, and gave him a basic education. In Navida, basic education included, nay, focused on magic, and Old Man Morokzo took to it quickly. After being presented to Navida's scientific community, Old Man Morokzo was kept on retainer, and was free to roam the university, and sat in on some magical lectures. After barely beginning to understand the basics, Morokzo decided to slip out, and return home. Since, he's been wandering, searching for his tribe, and slowly learning magic on his own.

[Lord_lemonpie]

The IC is now up! Have fun everyone.

Really sorry about that! I know it really sucks to have to wait on a player!

No problem man, gave me some extra time to think of the setting. How did your exams go?

Insanegame27, you still need to change your stat stuff. You've got 8 to spend in total. Sorry for causing any confusion.

[My Name is Immaterial]

They were kinda rough honestly. One of them had a few surprise questions that weren't covered by the study guide, which was pretty frustrating.

[Lord_lemonpie]

Bumping I guess? My name is immaterial is the only one that has thus far even replied to the IC. Where you guys at?

They were kinda rough honestly. One of them had a few surprise questions that weren't covered by the study guide, which was pretty frustrating.

Sorry to hear that . I hope your results exceed your expectations

[Insanegame27]

I replied to it just then

[Lord_lemonpie]

Next time combat will have a sort of map, but I'm at school now and it's hard to make one. Just assume you can melee/ranged attack everyone, but all creatures can currently only attack Styn unless it's specified they can
