So can I.

I think we need an IC thread or people will start actually having their characters chat OOC.

Good thing I have plans to post the IC tonight

You'd better hurry.

[Twinwolf]

If it's "I don't want to gather sheets" I can go through the thread and find them all, if that makes it come faster.

[Sanure]

If it's "I don't want to gather sheets" I can go through the thread and find them all, if that makes it come faster.

I mean, that certainly would help, but the main stall factor is having to go through the sheets afterwards and approving or vetoing things that don't work or can be OP. It's up to you if you do go and grab sheets.

[Shadestyle]

"Claiming"

[Twinwolf]

I just noticed that Shade's character has two completely beneficial perks, when they're supposed to only have one and the rest have downsides. Both Chemically Addled and Delusions of Grandeur have no downside.

[kj1225]

Oh, since I asked Shade to make this but realized that I can't use it...

[Shadestyle]

Delusions of grandeur does have a downside, he acts like an insufferable Megalomaniac to almost everyone he deems beneath him.

And yes, this is a downside.

You'll see.

It also does not really have an upside either, unless someone tries to mind control him.

"Just wait mortals, once I discover the penultimate elixir, my true form shall be revealed and you all shall see my glorious power!"

[Akroma]

If you ladies leave my island, if you survive recruit training, you will be a weapon. You will be a minister of death praying for war. But until that day you are pukes. You are the lowest form of life on Earth. You are not even human fucking beings. You are nothing but unorganized grabastic pieces of amphibian shit! Because I am hard, you will not like me. But the more you hate me, the more you will learn. I am hard but I am fair. There is no racial bigotry here. I do not look down on niggers, kikes, wops or greasers. Here you are all equally worthless. And my orders are to weed out all non-hackers who do not pack the gear to serve in my beloved Corps. Do you maggots understand that?

Name Syrgan Frostborn
Age: 32
Gender: Male
Appearance:

Personality: Kind, Calm, Tactical, Steadfast. Outgoing. Loves animals.
Background: Syrgan was originally born in the Frostfell Wastes, but as a child he was orphaned and raised in village near the capital far to the south of his native homeland. At a young age he proved proficient with a bow and quickly joined the ranks of rangers in his new village, even proving  his ability by befriending a young wolf and a raven. His true feat of heroism is when a monstrous wolf attacked his village. Syrgan fought the beast after it had killed most of the village guard, luring it back out of town and into the woods where his traps were. Watching the beast get caught, Syrgan experienced his first great hunt. It was deemed on that day that he was born a spirit of the hunt, and was taken to Esbellern to train at the church of St. Esbel to be a member of the Tarn Guard. At age 27, Syrgan proved himself once more, felling one of the roaming Cursed Mournwoods that roamed near the border to the Great Swamp of Kelern. Though the hunt was successful, Syrgan wasn't without injuries. The Cursed Mournwood had severely injured him, leaving its mark upon his chest. He was left weakened, but he instead he was still fit for duty. The church could not say no, and allowed him to continue his work. Several years later, He was brought before the High Priest of St. Esbel, Karagin, to undertake a new mission, one that would take him back to his homeland.

Spoiler: Moe as fug (click to show/hide)

Name: Freyja Frostwind
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Appearance: Picture!
Personality: Slightly shy, but is quite friendly. Easily spooked.
Background: Freyja was born as the sole daughter of the House of Frostwind, a name that dates back hundreds of years. They "rule" from their stronghold-like estate, dubbed 'The Crown of Ice' by the peasantry, out in the wastes. The Frostwinds have been the foothold for those expanding out further into the waste, to hold back the tide of evil. They're a friendly house, always welcoming those to their warm hearth, and fresh mutton. They also often pay adventurers to help the further out settlements (which they often levy taxes from), when the adventurous and warrior house doesn't partake in it themselves. Their thirst for adventure strives from the third house ruler many many generations ago, Holmbjorn II, arguably the most powerful ever of the noble house. Freyja, looks up to her ancestor, and thirsts for adventure as her blood before her, striving for such incredible honor and title... but she's a little off, when it comes to being the greatest warrior in her house. Anyways, Freyja grew up in her estate, opting out of her mother's attempts at grooming her for command more than anything else. She instead, took up the sword and shield to follow in the footsteps of her adventurous ancestors. While her mother (Anna) always disapproved, her father (Ymir) admired the combativeness in her fiery youth. And thus, once Freyja became of age, she was sent out to help out in the Wastes, as a true Frostwind warrior would.

Spoiler: Lillian (click to show/hide)

Name: Lillian Rook. “Real” last name is Steelwood, but she doesn’t know that.
Age: 19, approaching 20
Gender: Female

Appearance: Lillian, clothes aside, does not look like how one would think of a farmgirl. She is about 5 feet, 4 inches tall, with silver-colored eyes and straight brown hair that goes a bit past the shoulders (this is dyed because her father asked her to do so; her natural color is a very light blonde, although it seems closer to white to some people). Features-wise, she seems more on the side of “cute”, but one gets the sense she could be more than that if she bothered to try. She generally wears comfortable and warm clothing in dark colors like brown or black.

Personality: Hard-working, kind, loyal

Background:
When one thinks of the town of Tref Haearn, or “Iron Town”, what one usually thinks of is the vast metal stores that make the town the booming economic center it is. What one does not think of is the rich soil that is in the entire territory and allows Iron Town to grow so quickly without running out of food. Lillian does not forget these lands, as they are her livelihood. Growing up in a small farming village right on the border of the territory, Lillian grew up being told to work hard, be kind, and other such lessons, by her father Arlan Rook. She also learned how to mix potions and salves, in order to cheaply and easily treat the sicknesses of people and animals. She was also told which mixes would be dangerous…

While she is unaware of this, her father’s real name is Arlan Steelwood, brother to the current head of the Steelwood family. The Steelwood family were Tref Haearn’s founders and leaders, known for their familial politics and the inheritance issues that come with having so many children. Arlan himself had sired six children before Lillian, and that’s not even getting into all the children his siblings have had. Needless to say inheritance debates and who becomes the next head arguments get… heated. Arlan himself was part of this world, until he met Lillian’s mother, a simple produce farmer, while on the town. Things happened quickly, and months later Lillian was conceived. Unlike his previous partners, Arlan truly loved this woman; he didn’t want her, or their daughter, to get caught up in his world. They would never let him leave, though; he, and any children he sired, would still be fully eligible for inheritance, and his family would want them where they could see them. So he faked his death with the help of sympathetic servants, changed his name, and ran away with his beloved. Months later, Lillian was born, and it seemed like it was a success. However, some of Arlan’s siblings are unsure of whether he is truly dead, and a different last name does not stop Lillian from having the distinctive features of the Steelwood line, the silver eyes and white-blonde hair and other less obvious features.

Lillian’s family- the Rooks, not the Steelwoods- is in dire straits, which brings us to her reason to go to the Frostfell Wastes; a recent sickness has been afflicting many of the crops of Tref Haearn, causing a famine among the poorer classes as the rich import food from outside. Lillian negotiated to have food and funds sent to her family while she works for the adventurers of the church, and fully intends to leave once crops can be grown again. Besides, perhaps her experiences will make her a better person? Or perhaps she will learn of her heritage?

Background: Beorhtric can be described as a rogue cleric at worst and at best a wandering healer that steals power from the gods from all appearances. He originally set out from his town to become part of the church of Esbel. This soon changed as he was disgusted by the slimy evil of the church, leading to him leaving to the wastes with little more than a pouch of bandages and herbs and his robes, now dyed black on his road to finding his way. On his way up to the northern expanse he's been healing people and collecting spare herbs when possible, most likely leading to how he met the others in the party. He has yet to reveal his secret.

Name: Ishtari Alleron
Age: 263
Gender: Male
Appearance: This.
Personality: Hot-headed and brash, Ishtari is all things one would expect from a Warrior. But, he's not a Warrior. No, he's a Guardian. He is generally very egotistical, and will try to do most things to benefit himself. He just thinks that defending others is the best way to benefit himself.
Background: Ishtari was raised in a den of particularly vicious Naga, which is saying something considering how vicious the average Naga is. He ate most of the brethren he had, and rose to become the most feared general the Naga army had ever had. But, he was defeated in combat by a Naga from a rival territory. This cast much shame upon him, and he was exiled from his den, forced to roam endlessly. This only fueled his endless rage more, and he jumped at the oppurtunity to do something to get himself back to a spot of power.

Spoiler: Brother Robert (click to show/hide)

Name: Brother Robert.
Age: 38
Gender: Male.
Appearance: Basically this.
Personality: There are two Brother Roberts. The Brother Robert who goes to bed every night is a cheery old soul, with a smile for everyone, a playful insult for everyone, and their mother, and a belly-laugh as loud as a lion. But, the Brother Robert who wakes up in the morning is nothing like the Brother Robert of the night before. He's a depressed, exhausted man, his face gaunt with the things that he's seen and done in the service of the Church. He's embarrassed of who he is when he's sober, so he gets drunk as early as possible, and stays that way throughout the rest of the day.
Background: Brother Robert joined the church at a young age, a fifth child of a minor noble, destined for nothing special. He studied at a small monastery in the Icewyn hills, studying the teachings of Saint Esbel. Recruited to be an assistant for one of the monks much higher in the hierarchy, he saw things that he can never forget and can only hope to never see again. He turned to alcohol to escape the visions of death, horror and things much worse than that. He lost himself in drink, abandoning his sacred duty to Saint Esbel. After a few months of living on the road (or, more specifically, the sewer), the monks tracked him down and brought him back to the path of righteousness. Now, he adventures to repay his debt to Saint Esbel.

He just kind of wandered away from the farm and his family, following a small group of individuals headed for a new place.

Spoiler: Caderyn Corraidhin (click to show/hide)

Name: Caderyn Corraidhin
Age: He says he's 23. This is dubious at best.
Gender: Male
Appearance: Roughly cut medium-length blonde hair that extends a bit past his ears, though the length varies somewhat. Bright green eyes and a lean build, if not outright lanky. Taller than average. His appearance is still quite youthful, but he has bold, strong features regardless.
Personality: Bold and headstrong to the point of foolhardiness, and not afraid to bluster and bellow about his strength. He's utterly convinced that he is, or at least will be, one of the most powerful warriors alive or dead. Still, he's actually fairly intelligent if he can manage to calm down long enough to actually think something through. He's honorable and actually quite kind underneath all the shouting and general obnoxiousness, though he has a firm belief in harsh justice.
Background: Caderyn claims to be descended from an ancient lineage of kings that once ruled Valkain and perhaps more, a lost lineage that has survived through centuries until the old blood awoke in him, and has traveled about in order to hone his skills and find a house that would recognize his royal blood and assist him in a claim to the throne. Failing this, he intended to take lands with an archaic custom of winning allegiance in a duel, fighting the champions of each house and defeating them until they were all beholden to him.

Understandably, not many people appreciated this.

His constant rabble rousing, pestering of the nobility, and the small, but significant, thought that he might actually succeed in garnering enough support lead to Caderyn eventually being rounded up by royal guards and told in no uncertain terms that he could either make himself a non-issue by going to the Wastes or face charges of high treason. The choice was fairly obvious, and so he was shipped off. Of course, he doesn't tell his allies that bit. He acts as if it's all part of his quest to garner fortune and fame, and actually believes this himself to an extent.

In reality, he was born and raised in a small village, though whether his family tree is actually intertwined with the royal one is uncertain - it might be lies, it might be truth. His father was a blacksmith, and Caderyn spent much of his time learning the craft before his head was filled with ideas of adventure and glory. He won't outright lie about this fact, though he will do his best to dodge around the topic.

Perks:

Prodigy at Arms: Caderyn is naturally skilled and deft with all manner of weapons. He is proficient with all weapons and can swap between them once per round at no cost.

He gains a point of damage for every four (less or more, up to GM) points of health he's missing underneath 70% of his health. However, by extension, he cannot fight at full power unless wounded, and takes a similar penalty if above 70% health. (Currently -3 damage at full health, +7 if at 1 health.

Wild Movement: Caderyn's base damage resistance is zero, but he gains a chance to dodge all attacks based on his Agility+5. (8% currently.)

Spoiler: bronze mclong, bronzeworker (click to show/hide)

Name: Elidyr Moesen
Age: 38
Gender: Male

Appearance: Elidyr is a veritable tower of a man, standing at the intimidating height of six-and-one-half feet. His hair, a golden brown like the bronze he wears and wields, is most often tied back in a low ponytail despite its relatively short length for such a style. A jagged scar runs across his ever closed left eye, from cheek to forehead, leaving one brown eye in place. His face is grave with a defined nose and framed by a sharp square jaw. He is clean-shaven.

Elidyr is very well-built from years of smithing and learning swordsmanship, with broad shoulders, thick limbs, and large hands and feet, though his bare musculature is seldom visible - you tend to see it in action more often than in person. He wears smallclothes in various shades of brown underneath the golden bronze armor he so prizes.
Personality: Patient, unyielding, possibly seeming not to care at times. Becomes nigh-uncontrollable when truly angered.
Background: In the humble settlement of Tref Haearn, along the Iron Coast in the east of the Wastes, a young boy was born nearly four decades prior. The boy had a bright fire within and would make a fine warrior, as many were certain, but it was not to be. His parents were of the highest order of smiths in the area and once he was of age Elidyr joined the profession happily. He was a natural, forging some of the best arms and protective equipment the town had seen in a long while, and made his family very happy and prosperous. However, such success had made him overconfident, as it tends to do.

Midway through his twenty-fifth year of life, Elidyr was working on a special gift for one of Tref Haearn he had a particular like for, though the bronze was temperamental and would not cooperate. Elidyr had promised the gift before the next sunset, and he became angry as it would not be completed in time if he could not coerce the metal into taking shape. Out of rage, he struck the bronze much too hard, and the metal completely shattered. Elidyr's hubris had blinded him temporarily to the fact that the bronze was cold and brittle, and blinded him permanently as one of the shards put out his eye as a reminder.

Elidyr changed that day. Though he did not give up his profession, he changed his ways, becoming very patient and calm; bottling away what little anger he ever came across as though it was not there. He would not repeat the mistake that cost him an eye, after all. Elidyr developed a desire to do the and for others as well, to keep them from letting their accomplishments or perceived talent get control of them. Forging a set of armor and a weapon of his namesake metal and taking a set of tools with him to keep his craft alive on the journey, Elidyr set off on his task across the Wastes.

Name: Shina Mochimo
Age: 37
Gender: Female
Appearance: Shina is a slender girl with an athletic frame, with olive-toned skin from years of wandering, marked with a few scars from her brushes with death in combat. Her face is small when uncovered, and her eyes are a vivid green. Her brown hair is tied in a ponytail to keep it out of the way of her bow, and two, brown-furred cat ears mark her out as not being human. Her clothing is quite plain, with russet and brown tones and thick leather boots. A reddish scarf is wrapped around her neck to protect it from the heat or cold and held tight with a brooch in the shape of a crane marking her out as a former member of the army of the Grand Duchy of Edo, with her clothing as rugged as possible while remaining light, and a small quiver hangs at the side of her belt, next to several prayer tags.

Personality: Friendly and as helpful as she can be, if somewhat hardened due to her travels. In combat, she tends to let herself loose, her yelling abilities and ferocity only matched by her ability in healing her allies.

Background: In the Grand Duchy of Edo to the west, there is a race of beings called the Burakana, distinguished mainly by their animal-like traits, such as tails, eyes and claws, said to have been descended from a cursed woman who fell in love with a disgraced prince, with the Burakana being their progeny. As a result, they tend to be discriminated against due to this legend, with the few escaping this fate marrying into the families of nobles and hiding their animal traits as best as they can, hoping to fit into society. The rest are banished to far off villages, working as the executioners, the butchers, the embalmers and other undesirable jobs of the Duchy.

Shina was born to two embalmers, who cared for her very much. There wasn't much to her childhood, though she always showed promise with a bow and was rather good with horses- that is, aside from the discrimination against her and her people as pariahs of society.

As soon as she was old enough, she ventured out to join the army in an attempt to leave the village (with her parents' blessing) and see the world; the local earl conscripted her into his armies of Burakana and human levies. Despite some problems and issues attempting to join and then suffering from discrimination, Shina showed promise and was educated as a Companion, a skilled horse archer who also assisted their allies by providing healing through prayers and songs to the goddess Fumikata, mistress of healing, songs and archers. She served for a while with distinction in the earl's army before the armies of all the lords of Edo were reduced in a war with the Holy Principality of Andou, and the resulting onerous peace treaty forced upon Edo. Instead, she attached herself to one of the wandering mercenary bands of masterless Edonian soldiers, their lords slain in the war or otherwise forced to relieve themselves of soldiers, before striking out on her own and wandering around the world, doing favours for money and acting as a freelancer.

The Church of Esbel has paid her along with several others to join the expedition, with Shina's Companion cavalry training a factor in her hiring. She even came with her own horse, reducing the need for the Church to shell out for giving her one.

Gelibete lived with her family out far away from the nearest town but close to several monasteries and unfortunately Gorgon lairs and on her 16th birthday they attacked her home. Gillebete desperately tried to fight them it ended with having her face scarred and an eye blinded as she was forced to watch her parents bloody death's and her brother being ripped in half the Gorgons left her there in pain as she grabbed her brother desperately refusing to believe she couldn't save him she rushed out into the wilds looking for a monastery...she made it halfway before beohtric found her lying in the snow a corpse in her hand herself nearly dead from blood loss and frostbite and beotric brought her back to his holy order saving her life....when she woke up after several months of seemingly being in a coma. She was strange and surreal making up stories left and right covering up her own weaknesses desperately coming up with feats of valor and bravery to comfort herself and she slowly seemed to believe it herself until bandits attacked the holy order she and beohtric were at. Filled with rage Geliebte grabbed a suit of armor and a Lance and she fought and held them back until help arrived. She had nearly died but had shown great potential. In the following years she was trained rigorously to fight, hold the line, and to wear heavy armor determined to never lose anything again and now after all these years she's finished with her training and has come back to visit beohtric her hero she'd never have made it this far without brohtric and she want's nothing more right now then to make her hero beohtric proud of her.
