[Sean Mirrsen]

You don't normally show up inactive unless you're gone for 15 minutes. So it was a tad longer than a short break, but whatever. I'm on to turn ZERO!!

   I shall loot the houses for stuff that will be useful, primarily stuff to sell (e.g. rare trinkets if there are any (which I doubt)) and armour.   

   I pray to Nal Ta and ask for the ability to turn a rock to magma after I throw it, but before it strikes the target.   

   I search around   

   I pray to my god and ask him what I need to do to get some magic skillz.

Cheeetar
Nirur Torir
Org
Errol

----------------      
   While Org and Cheeetar stroll off to plunder the surroundings, Nirur and Errol turn to their deities for help and guidance. Nal Ta is in a good mood today, but tells Nirur that he has not earned godly blessing yet, and cannot hope to receive something on a whim. Errol, on the other hand, receives a very definite and straightforward answer from Bal'Rogga: to gain skills with the help of a god, you have to... ASK. THE. GOD. Some good standing with the god in question will also help.   
   A short while later, Cheeetar returns, having found a small iron casket that is very thoughtfully locked. He could find no key, and the keyhole is rusty and clogged with dirt, anyway. Org appears soon after, hauling a pair of farming tools - a hoe, and a rake, both very rusty but not looking like falling apart just yet. He also says there's practically nothing left around this place, everything was taken. At least three carts left their trails in the ground, heading north.

[Nirur Torir]

I'll train my agility by doing jumping jacks and climbing on the ruined houses. Not at the same time.

[Org]

Ill train too.

[Errol]

I perform a dark ritual (read: set fire to something) to please Bal'Rogga. I make sure to separate the ritual sacrifice from other lightable items as good as I can.

[Cheeetar]

I'll try and work the lock open with my dagger, and if all else fails I'll just try to bash it open.

[SHAD0Wdump]

If there is no waiting list I'm going to be one sad puppy.

Name:Same.
Items:Sling & Vest.
Skill:Agile.
God:Keelat(yeah,I like linking to my own characters)
Alignment:Air & Health.(DF spheres? C'mon?)

[serephe]

Name: Serephe
Items: Screwdriver and hammer
Skill: Mechanics
God: Nameless god of Incest. He who shall not be named (for fear of lawsuit!)
Alignment: Slightly crooked

I don't want to play, I just felt like writing up a character for some reason.

[Sean Mirrsen]

I should point out that the buckler offers no additional protection, it just allows you to use the Shield Use skill, and doesn't take up a hand.

Cheeetar
Nirur Torir
Org
Errol   

----------------      
   Inspired by the kind words of his deity, Errol sets to building a small sacrificial altar. Some dry grass and a few wooden planks make passable firemaking material, so he puts it all next to the wall of a house, and starts working. Seeing this, Cheeetar decides to move to a safe distance, and then tries to inflict lethal stabbing damage on the lock of the casket in an attempt to get it to open. He manages to get the dirt out of the keyhole, but even with all the rust on it, the lock keeps the lid firmly closed.

   Meanwhile, Org and Nirur decide to exercise a little and start climbing the various nearby constructions. But where Nirur almost falls, yet prevails, Org manages to fail spectacularly and land flat on his back. Having completed his round of training, Nirur helps the bruised Org to stand up and offers his help in resuming the exercise.   

   They are interrupted by rather disturbing laughter and the smell of smoke. They see Errol standing nearby, victoriously holding his arms raised to the heavens. A small fire burns merrily at the corner of the nearby house, and begins spreading. The wood burns hesitantly, but it's enough for Errol to rejoice and gaze at his deed with burning passion.

too slow .it happens. but i will still read this RTD, your settings and stories are always good to read.

[zestorum]

Put me on the waiting list.

Equipment: Dagger and vest
Ability: Agile
God of: Moarte (Used "Google Translate" to translate the word Death to romanian.)
Alignment:Puppets and death (I get stronger each time I see or commit a murder!)

Changed

[Errol]

Pray to Lady Bal'Rogga and hope that she rewards me with some magic. Or at least that she gives me some instructions.

[Sean Mirrsen]

Would it be too much to ask any future applicants to NOT choose Fire as their god's domain? I mean, it sure is great for killing and destruction, but try to be a bit more original!

I'm noticing that 3d6 tends to make average numbers fairly often. Which is, so far, exactly how I'd like it to be - high numbers should mostly happen with high bonuses.

[Cheeetar]

I'll use the heat from the fire to screw around with the lock, expanding it and hopefully opening it or something. Combine this with plenty of smashing it against the ground and hopefully it shall open.
