I lol'd, then I repeated my post, then I realised I couldn't delete this one after I'd posted after it, then I realised that the source of the chaos had been relegated to the previous page...

Egad.

He has a rhohypnol dart gun which he uses to incapacitate people, and then extracts their sex organs to make a fluid that boosts his intellect. My character speaks Neo English, but is also a master debator, having won the World Series Master Debating Championship (his speech was titled "Pseudo Capitalist Zeitgeist"). I should also add that he has had 5D6 lovers in the past year, and there is +5 chance he will seduce a member of the opposite sex (he finds German women appealing).

Get that rhohypnol away from me, you damned dirty ape!

This is good. It will give me an opportunity to introduce myself to my fellow "adventurers".

Gah sadly I was distracted tonight (it pains me to admit that I was distracted by reading and mocking conspiracy theories, amongst other things) and have not got the writing and stuff I had planned, nor completed the remaining character sheets. I will make sure I get them done over the next few days

Oh, Wikipedia! Great confounder, and destroyer of afternoons! Because of you, I now know of the Vampire Squid from Hell, as well as Pumice Rafts, and that Depleted Uranium will kill you faster because it's poisonous than because it's radioactive. And, as awesome as those things are, somehow I feel like I came out behind in the bargain.

Have edited the first post in the Alinia thread with details on the continent. Have also done the character sheets I said i would do on sunday. Just waiting on one more.

Also, those of you who i havnt already spoken too in depth, could you please send me a quick backstory, motivations etc, your ideas for why you would be on the venture. I intend to come up with some motives for each player, kinda like quests, to help make sure the players dont get stagnant

Sorry, but I am stuck on my character concept. I have no idea what to play.

Post by **Dorian** » Tue Oct 27, 2009 11:11 am

Oh good. I have my concept down, and the idea for the backstory. Just haven't had a lot of steady time to put it all down in story form, yet.

Post by **Dorian** » Tue Oct 27, 2009 11:32 pm

yeah all good.

The introductory part of the game will start at the end of next week.

I will be leaving town this saturday and not returning till next thursday so if anyone requires assistance or has any questions they want answers to fast now is the time to ask

Damn, so no Chrono Chimp?

Leaf through the WFRP career section of my book and I'm sure you could find something. Otherwise, why not play a variant of Heinrich Distesse (only, without being a Dwarf)?

Post by **Loredoctor** » Wed Oct 28, 2009 11:23 am

I will be playing Heinrich Ditesse - only not as a dwarf. Similar concept, however (not meaning the trader).

Post by **Dorian** » Wed Oct 28, 2009 3:49 pm

I think it would fit nicely

Can you at least be a midget? I'm feeling the need for some seriously non-PC behavior.

Post by **Dorian** » Thu Oct 29, 2009 12:58 am

Funnily enough, Lore, whilst trying to think of characters who would suit you I had come up with one vaguely resembling Heinrich, but I think your idea is the better of the two

Sounds fine to me.

Owing to time constraints, I may only get to do one more Background Post. But there is no need to discuss everything that has happened, or even to discuss the basics - I always feel that these posts should merely convey a character's 'atmosphere' more than anything.
