[Kadzar]

Name: Jaun Fernando Manuel de Suárez y Góngora del Castillo

Race: High Elf

Nationality: Spanish

Backstory: He and his family were considered hidalgos, petty nobility who enjoyed very little from the title other than tax exemption and the status of nobility. His father was an army captain of little renown, but as a young boy Juan idolized his father and wished to be just like him. Juan originally started studying anthropology because he believed knowing everything you can about an enemy was the key to defeating them. Eventually he found that he had a great interest and aptitude for the field, going on many expeditions and acquiring much fame, especially for his discoveries during his most recent trips to Egypt. He joined the expedition to Remembrance, not only help reclaim Spain but, also, for the accolade he could receive from his discoveries in this forgotten land.

Jaun is an arrogant and ruthless, yet quite charming and handsome High Elf in his late thirties.

That is everybody right?

Missing Ochita.

[scriver]

Sweden during yhe Napoleonic era should be some sort of barbarian half-men, because of vikings and our recently fallen empire carved out with extreme aggressiveness, but mostly because during this period we desperately tried to catch of with Europe (well, France) culturally. Von Fersen, who were the hggest model of gentleman of the time (the guy who had an affair with Marie-Antoinette), commented that people in Stockholm were so incredibly boring and uncultured it was impossible to hold a conversation with them. I'm thinking some sort of neanderthal/cave-men like types, with their hair and beard tucked into their clothes to hide it, constantly sinking back to their bent-over posture, and having problem with complicated thoughts and expressing themselves.

Shit, I didn't mean for it to turn into a damn essay.

Anyway, lastly - Scandinavians were the elves of WW2, obviously. Danish resistance using non-violence methods, Sweden don't caring about the rest of the world and staying neutral untill the end.. Very elvish.

[Ochita]

Sorry guys..

Name: Ochita
Race: High Elf
Nationality: Spain
Background:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Ochita was born 24 years before the War had started, with a tailor mother and a blacksmith father, the family generally had an easy life, and Ochita was sent to a good school, where he quickly picked up all forms of biology, and social skills. When the war started, his father left to become a soldier, leaving his wife to care for the family. Her health soon deteriorated, and Ochita had to earn money working in the chemists, due to his knowledge of biology, as it was his main interest. One day during his working hours, he found an old leather tome, which contained information of plants and animals, he was facinated, due to these plants and creatures being 'magical'. When spain was invaded, he took what he could from the chemists, and his mother into hiding. Her health deteriorated, until she passed away, with Ochita there to soothe her passing. From that day, he swore vendetta against the soldiers who had plaiged his homeland, and he eventually found his way into the expedition, via multiple turns and twists, chosen for his knowledge of animals and plants.

Alright. I'll get further instructions to you all on the matter of character creation tonight or tomorrow.

Can anybody sugest a good image host for maps? Because I will be using Hexographer or whatever you all it for this game, and it allows you save a snapshot as a .png

[scriver]

I use Imgur nowadays (no direct link as I'm on my phone, sorry). I think it's rather good. It suits my casual needs, at least.

[Weirdsound]

Allright. Character creation time!

Name: You should already have this
Race: You should already have this
Nationality: You should already have this

Background: You should already have this

Hitpoints: Current/Max (Your Max HP is calculated by the following equation: 2 + (Constitution * 3) + (Strength * 2). See the attributes spoiler for more information. When calculating Hitpoints pretend any attribute less than 0 is equal to zero.)
Carrying Capacity: Carrying/Max (Your carrying capacity in pounds is calculated by the following equation: 50 + (Strength * 10) + (Constitution * 7). Multiply the result by .8 if you are a dwarf or 1.3 if you are an Orc. See the attributes and items spoilers for more information. When calculating Carrying capacity pretend any attribute with a negative value is only half of what it really is.)

Attributes:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Attributes are used for any check where no skill is involved. The following are the attributes.

Strength: Outside of checks this determines your carrying capacity and hitpoints. If you are a guardian the sum total of your Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution must be at least three.

Dexterity: Dexterity is used for stunts, acrobatics, and climbing. If you are a guardian the sum total of your Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution must be at least three.

Constitution: Used to determine hitpoints, carrying capacity, and checks to work through pain. If you are a guardian the sum total of your Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution must be at least three. If you are the survivalist the sum total of your Constitution and Wisdom must be at least 2. Constitution may play a role in the learning and casting of some forms of magic.

Intelligence: Used for learning, calculating, and deducing. If you are the Cryptobiologist, Archeologist, or Anthropologist the sum total of your Intelligence and Wisdom must be at least two. Intelligence plays an important role in most forms of magic.

Wisdom: Used primarily for observing.  If you are the Cryptobiologist, Archeologist, or Anthropologist the sum total of your Intelligence and Wisdom must be at least two. Wisdom plays a role in most forms of magic.

Charisma: Used for non-violent interaction with other beings, sentient or otherwise. If you are the leader your Charisma must be at least 2. Charisma plays a key role in interacting with the gods.

All Attributes start at Zero.

If you are an Orc subtract two points from Intelligence and add three points to your Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, and/or Wisdom however you choose.

If you are a High Elf subtract a point from Strength, Constitution, or Wisdom and add two points to Charisma or Intelligence.

If you are a Dwarf subtract a point from either your Wisdom or Intelligence and add a point each to your Strength and Constitution.

If you are a human, add a point to any attribute of your choosing.

After adjusting your attributes for your race, you have 7 to add to your attribute scores as you see fit. You may gain up to two additional points by subtracting a point from a score at 0 or lower. Remember, something terrible will happen if any of your attributes fall under -5.

Skill Points:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

For each attribute at or above zero you gain 3 skill points of the corresponding type. For each point that an attribute sits above 0, gain 5 more skill points in that attribute. You may spend all your skill points during character creation, or save some for later to buy a skill and retcon that your character had it all along. List any spare skill points here

Skills:

You may spend skill points of the correct type to buy skills at a 1:1 ratio. During character you may not raise a skill above three. Most skills can be bought with more than one type of skill point.

The exception are the skills with the word language in their names. A level in a language skill only costs half a skill point.

This is a well funded mission so you may take any item that would exist in the early 1800's. Each character also starts with 100 gold 'flags' a coin specially minted for this mission. I expect you to use research or your best judgement when determining the weight of an object. We will be useing the good old fashioned currency is weightless rule her.

Here is a good place to start for weapons: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Napoleonic_weaponry_and_warfare
I could find a good sight for non-combat tools of the early 1800s, so if somebody finds one, post it here.

Have Fun!

Oh. Yeah. The bonuses to the people who played my Elf Game. How about 3 extra points to spend on your role skills?

[Weirdsound]

(Alright. Lets start the RPing while we wait for the character sheets to trickle in.)

After weeks at sea the British Fleet has finaly reached the lost lands of Remembrance. You and your team of explorers have been waiting aboard for days as the other ships in the fleet scout the shoreline looking for a place to land. Impatience begins to rear it's ugly head, spurred on in part by sightings of fantastic creatures in the water and in the sky.

Sea-serpants have been spotted, rearing up out of the water at a close distance, eying the crew hungrily. Schools of mermaid aproach every couple of hours to get a good look at your Flagship Speedy II. Strange birds made from wood with stiff wings fly overhead every so often, and just this afternoon what appeared to be a green dragon was noticed by an eagle eyed sailor in the crows nest, circling the ship for several hours at the distance of 5 miles.

The explorers are called into Admiral Cochrane's quarters and told to take a seat. Like always the first thing you notice about the officer is his scowl. It is no secret that he was sent to remembrance due to some political disagreements with parliament, and that he would much rather be fighting the French than exploring the new world before him.

"Well." the Admiral declares gruffly. "It is about time to land and set up a port. We have three potential locations to consider, and I would like your input. First off to the Northwest we have spotted a fairly developed coastal town. Likely human or Orcish I'm told told. Just to the west of here is a small desert valley. Sailors have spotted tents on the coast typical of those used by the nomadic tribes of old. Finally there is a forest peninsula to the south. We have seen alot of small fishing boats in the area, so it is safe to assume that there is some forest dwelling civilization nearby, hidden from view by the trees."

The man takes a swig from his flask before continuing. "I've decided to let you lot decide where to land. I could care less. It's not like there will be any French to battle at any of these places..."

Hmm, how's this?

[scriver]

I know exactly how my Lord is going to treat your upstart servant, Serious C

...I'll be writing something for real as soon as I get on the computer.

[SeriousConcentrate]

As a meatshield? Because that's my intention. The role's called guardian for a reason, after all... ^^;

Peter watched the mermaids through one of the portholes as they inspected the ship. He had never seen such things, or the dragon that had circled the ship earlier. He was both nervous and excited about this assignment; he had fought on the front lines of the war for a few months, and while a reprieve to explore a new frontier was intriguing, he wasn't sure he was the best suited for such a task. He thought that was what all explorers must feel like though. Leaving the comforts of one's birthplace, even if it was in a time of war, for the strange and unknown must have been nerve-wracking for, say, Magellan as well.

The Admiral, Cochrane, finished speaking, stating that there were three possible locations to weigh anchor. After thinking over what he had said, Peter saluted. "I believe the area to the northwest is the best, sir. Given that there are buildings there, I mean, sir. Nomads can easily pack up and go and so would be hard to find, and we don't know for sure where the village the boats land at is."

[scriver]

Heh, I think I'm going to need some helpt with this. I'm fairly certain I'm not doing it right, but I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong - I seem to get so many skill points, and there's so few skills to spend them on . Or is it okey to have, for example both Charisma-Teacher and Intelligence-Teacher at 3?

Anyway, this is what I've made so far, is it correct?

(Wow, the inventory was hard, but I think its okay..)


Ochita was amazed at the various animals, and sea fairing creatures that lived in this land of.. Wonder. He could be seen looking in his book of plants and animals, checking its descriptions, and fixing them when he could, also making notes in a Seperate book. After a while though, he decided to relax, and so he leaned against the railings. So these are the lands that keep magic within them.. I do hope that there is a way that I can find something to defeat the french.. His internal monolog was interrupted by a sailor, who directed him to the Admiral's quarters.

Ochita listened intently to the Admirals speech, and he took in the fact that there could be other sentient races here.. He pondered for a moment, and started to speak up, before the human gave his speach.. Taking it in for a moment, he started himself. "Well, Peters. No offence, but nomads wouldn't be the best place to gain information on this land, what if they were a hostile nomadic tribe?  I suggest that we get a smaller boat, and look for the fishing village, if they work with fishing, then it is less likely that they will be hostile, and so we can gain more information about this land sooner, plus also some extra supplys for us."

Name: Kriegaxt Brandt
Race: Orc
Nationality: Prussian

Spoiler: Background (click to show/hide)

Kriegaxt is a young Orc of twenty four years, with a number of competing ideals-he's best known as a mercenary, yet he will also work for no pay if he believes the cause is right. He loves his homeland more than anything, yet he has no hate for the French who took it away from him. His family is come from a long line of pillagers and mercenaries, yet he has not taken a life himself. He's considers himself an chivalrous Orc in an era of cannons and rifle. He's a renowned Archeologist, who has a habit of pillaging tombs for profit.

His family is well known in Prussia, at least, serving as knights and barons going back into antiquity with honor. Recent events have diminished them-fleeing ahead of Napolean, they abandoned their holdings, maintaining only modest wealth. His family has fled to America-and they're not sure if they're ever coming back. Kriegaxt decided to stay in Europe and see if he could find his own way

So when he recieved a invitation for the expedition to the lands of Remembrance, he was all too overjoyed to accept. After all, he had grown up on stories of famous Orc Knights doing battle with dragons, witches and vampires in the old times, before the Elves made the magic go away. He's no knight, yet he finds himself excited. Perhaps, this will be the last chance for true adventure...

Ahhhhh...done...

Intelligence penalty is pretty heavy! Adurrr. Weirdsound, will my high wisdom, and my low intelligence char actually work as an Archeologist character?

If Kriegaxt can't read because he's a doofus, I might have to change my race, but I don't really want to.

I guess it's the difference between say Alan Grant (Intelligence) and Indiana Jones (Wisdom)-I would hope they would both viable, in different ways.

Edit: Also, annoying thing

A level in a language skill only costs half a skill point. You may take up to 4 points in your native language and 3 points in English for three. If English is your native language you may take two free points in any other language of your choosing.

Did you mean free?

Otherwise, Kriegaxt has to spend two of his three bonus points just to speak at all. lol
