Not really. "Soon" on a scale of days I assume, but otherwise whenever we seem to have everybody we're going to get and I'm up for it.

This is going to be interesting.
Definitely.

So who's the other sane one?

Also, what would you recommend as a primary magical school? I wasn't sure if "Fleshmastery (or mancery or ology" or something like "Monster making" was to narrow/unfit to be considered a school of magic. If it works I'll leave if, it not, I'm open to sugguestions about what would be a better fit.

Spoiler: Character (click to show/hide)

Name: Otto
Race, Gender, and Class: Male Omnibold Alchemist (I assume that Artifice is a subschool of Alchemy. Tell me otherwise if this isn't so)
Academy/Kingdom: Glazedtop
Physical Description: A kobold that has translucent skin and no internal organs. Instead, he has raw elemental power shifting in an eternal malestorm within him that somehow keeps him alive.
Mental Description: Test, experiment with, split, and/or combine EVERYTHING (that would be feasible to do that stuff to), and learn as much as possible
Backstory: Otto used to be an average Kobold Alchemist. He worked at the Dissolving Chamber (it's more like a giant cauldron, but "Dissolving Chamber" sounds cooler), which reduced items to a slurry of raw Alchemical elements. One day, he fell into the Chamber, dissolved, and died. However, a few days later, the slurry began to move. Otto reformed, with a body that had adapted to the slurry- he became the first (and possibly last) omnibold. He no longer needed to eat normal food- his body sustained itself on Alchemical Compounds (used to feed the vortex/malestorm thing). He became much more magical as well- he gained power over certain fields of magic, depending on what was in the vortex within him, although using that power made him hungry.

Primary Skill: Alchemy
Secondary Skill: Magic Related to the Dominant Alchemical Element Type Within Him
Tertiary Skills: Magic Related to the Secondary or Tertiary Element Types Within Him
Signature: The Gauntlets of Construction, a pair of gauntlets that can, over the course of several minutes, deconstruct an item, or combine two items.
Submission: The Gauntlets of Construction (they weren't bad, just not exceptional)
Equipment: The Book of Elements, Basic Alchemy, Advanced Alchemy, Master Alchemy, How to Tap Into Your Inner Power, Alchemical Tools, the Gloves of Construction, and the Eternal Scribing Tools (a tablet that can record and then later display an unlimited amount of data)

I'll settle the Crossroads.

Mental Description: Minor paranoid, Rekolleg lives by the 'refuge in senility' approach.
Backstory: For longer than he cared to remember, Rekolleg helped manage the academy library. Simultaneously fending off enchanted books and eccentric wizards gave him a strange look on Life and a stranger set of skills.

Primary Skill:  Nullifying (canceling out the effects of magic)
Secondary Skill: Binding (Forcibly containing magical artifacts/effects/auras)
Tertiary Skills: Magical study (Examining magic to identify its properties) Organisation (Essential for any Librarian,  magic it mundane)

This is recruiting? Give me a moment, you're apparently very highly recommended by Caellath.

[IronyOwl]

Holly hell,a completely sane magic user

Yes, totally sane.

you're apparently very highly recommended by Caellath.

Well, if you just want a completely boring destination ...

Spoiler: Yawn (click to show/hide)

Isolation: Neighbor

Power: Extravagant

Size:Metropolis: An exceedingly ambitious attempt at colonizing the new world, likely bringing along everything you'd ever need. They're almost certainly aiming to exploit you to the full extent of your abilities.

Features: A fully populated world of estimated 7 billion. Most of the populace live in post-industrial societies. Most of the notable civilizations live in the north, including a large and disorganized power bloc of historical enemies, a wealth-worshiping imperialist society of chaotic leadership, a massive and very cold empire led by one man (as is proper), and a similarly-led, rapidly-developing state with a large portion of the planet's population.

Our invasion force would land in a useless yet highly-contested desert near the disorganized power bloc and the cold empire.

Hazards: The natives have highly trained militaries, a global communication network, immense industrial capacity, and technologies far ahead of our own - Supposedly they can use weaponized sunshine to purge all life from a wide area, from anywhere on the planet.

Boons: Expansive existing infrastructure, and we might be able to use their technologies for ourselves.

... Maybe not.
