SWF Paladin looking for a companion. Must enjoy defending the weak, slaying evil, long walks across the countryside, and polishing armor and weapons on long cold nights waiting for the next battle.

If interested, please reply to...

Or wait..., this isn't match.com?


No, this site actually gets results ^w^

Sovereign Court

New Quest Idea:
Respond to a dragon's astral dating advertisement, and try to convince it to let you have access to its horde. We'll call the AP Gold-diggers.

It's been fifteen posts or so, I think it's time Dax sets up the next version of the recruitment list to give us something to talk about. Perhaps we can add some genders to it this time around! ;)

Hobbies, horoscopes, favorite colors and food...

The possibilities are endless!

I am a Scorpio born in the year of the rat.

My blood type is delicious.

I like long walks on the beach, fresh eyeball parfaits, Gilbert and Sullivan community theater, and the ultimate dissolution of all things.


I would say that Pollux jests but I know better.

Keep up the laughs Pollux. Still loving it.


Not sure if this is still running or not, but good luck to the hopefuls. I am regretfully dropping out as I've been picked up on another campaign. Good luck, guys and gals!

Corbould Portos, out.

I am hopeful that it is still continuing on as I would like to see where the AP ends if chosen.

The masters of the city sent for Portos in the night. Best to forget him all together. Best to forget he was ever here.

Good luck in your other venture, Mr. Chiroptera.

Character Backstory:

Idont was bred rather than born. As an experiment of cultists he was created by forcibly impregnating a woman by a vampire. He was one of many such experiments breeding monsters and demons with humans. These mad cultists were trying to breed a perfect being, the perfect warrior. However Idont was very strong willed and this caused many problems for him. Raised amongst the cultists with other experiments, Idont was taught to fight at an early age. Every so often he was tested by being made to fight another one of the experiments. This continued for most of his childhood until the age of thirteen.

At the age of thirteen, the demon cultists thought they would advance to stage two of their plans. So they decided to improve on this particular subject by preforming a demon ritual. However the ritual seemed to fail, and he were not visibly altered. Instead he became stronger and faster. The cultists did not realize this, thinking he was a failed experiment the cultist thought to sacrifice you to a demon. Upon realizing this and decided to escape. When they took him out of his cell to be bought the sacrificial chamber he used his newly enhanced speed and strength to knockout your guards and escape.

Idont spent the next few years and the streets, running with a gang of orphans. The leader of the gang, John was a clever boy and a decent fighter. John however was not very intimidating, and was often challenged by other members of the gang. One day Idont came upon John being pummeled by a member challenging him for position. Being used to fights and having no real social skills, he wonders up to the fight and looks. Seeing him watching, The boy pummeling John, looks and says "what are you looking at Dhampir freak." Idont responds with "Watching your attempt to fight, if that is what this is?" The boy angry and perceiving an insult from Idont's response, stood up and swung a him. Idont having excellent reflexes and being an experienced fighter swung back and hit the boy knocking him out in one punch. John got up and thanked him, and invited him to join the gang. John and Idont soon became friends, Idont's first friend. Within the year he assumed the position of John's Enforcer. Still socially awkward and strong willed John remained Idont's only friend for several years.

All of this changed Idont met Mary. Mary was the most beautiful half-elf Idont had ever seen, she was also the most ambition thief the gang had ever known. And Idont fell for her instantly. When she joined the gang at about thirteen she was already a master pickpocket. Using her new found influence with Idont she convinced the gang to go into the thieving trade full-time. Under her guidance the gang was so successful that they kept trying bigger and bigger jobs. Then one day Mary came to them with a job that was the biggest of them all. They were going to rob the . Some in the gang protested saying the job was too high profile. The job was to rob a reclusive noble man dabbling in the occult.

So they cased the noble mans estate noting that he and his cultists always spent new moon performing rituals for 3 hours after midnight. So the gang decided to sneak in and steal some of the valuable magical artifacts collected by the noble man. They made it over the gate, and through the court yard without trouble. In the distance they could hear the cultists chanting. Sneaking into the mansion they opened the secret door, into a room laden with magical artifacts. Reveling in their seeming victory they stuffed their stacks. So full of themselves they were that they did not notice that the chanting had stopped. So as they were leaving with their booty, they were caught by surprise when they ran into one of the cultists. The cultists called forth demons these demons slew everyone but Idont.

Alone in the world all of his friend slain, the only family he had ever known gone. So Idont set out, leaving the city and wandering the world doing the only thing he knew how, fighting. So for he 90 years he wondered from fighting pit to fighting pit, making his living with his fists.


Ok, back from all the video game tourney craziness! I have officially claimed one of the top rankings, so I'm quite happy!

That said, I forgot to inform all of you that I was going to be busy with this, so my apologies.

*TAL, POLLUX, AND THOSE NOT SELECTED WHO DO NOT MIND STARTING AT A LATER POINT, READ AT THE BOTTOM OF THE POST!*

My selections are:

1. Arrius with Hrafen Ulfwyth the Slayer!

2. The Rising Phoenix with Mera Wist-Thrune the Bard!

3. House_Arnaste with Litania Barnes the Witch!

4. Professor Calvinball with Cato Archimboli the Bloodrager!

5. Rysky with Monday (Sorry for the error!) Daud the Spiritualist!

And a surprise guest who will be playing a recurring NPC at certain junctures during the campaign!

I know what some people are wondering 'why no divine casters?'. Well, this is an urban campaign, so potions are hardly scarce. Given that, if each person has a potion and is smart in using them, a healer is not really needed. So, it boiled down more to making the hard decisions between all of the wonderful PCs.

Tal, Pollux, and those not selected, I believe that I may pick up the CoT campaign Tal and Pollux belonged to, but reset the events back a bit. This means that the campaign will be between book 2 and 3, depending on where I choose to pick up in the story. Interested?


"Yay!"


Congrats to the selected and have a great game! :)


"Um, good Sir and or Madam, Mooni is the Spiritualist, I'm just a Phantom..."

Silver Crusade

Thankies for selecting us, and to those who didn't get picked best of luck in your future games! ^w^

Grand Lodge

Thank you. I'm glad I made the cut.

I'm looking forward to joining the rest of my fellow players; here's to a great game.

Finally, I have a question relevant to our character interactions.

Would you like us to introduce ourselves when the AP starts proper, or is it also good to know one another previously? It would seem that Cato and Litania would at least have passing knowledge of one another--given their origin.


Congrats to those selected.


Congrats to those selected.

I would be interested in the other game.


"I am quite pleased and honored that I made the cut. I thank you and I promise I will try not to disappoint."

When do we start again? I've quite forgotten...


Ttake fun you all.

Grand Lodge

Have fun, one and all.

Or the fact that Litania has a bad habit of sneaking off to frequent establishments like Cato now owns... :)


I am fine with backing up a bit. I am assuming before we got our large quantity of wealth?


Huzzah!

I feel honored to have made the cut among all of those great submissions. For whose who didn't get selected, I enjoyed reading all of your characters and I wish you the best of luck in your future games!


Congratulations to those who were chosen. Have fun! :)


Thanks and congrats.

Dark Archive

Good luck to all of you in your endeavors for Westcrown!

I would be interested in joining the second game.

Aye, I would assume that the two are at least acquaintances.


Those who were chosen, check discussion in a few minutes for an announcement!

Those interested in the second table that is a continuation of Tal and Pollux's game, PM me to inform me of your interest and I will get back to you once I have caught up reading on that campaign and begun the interesting task of deciding where to place the group in the AP!

As it turns out, I was part of the counterpart to Tal and Pollux's game. I am interested in getting into the game.

I'd be interested in that second table.

Just sent you a PM about it with a list of ideas I had. Including the possibility of a tweak for this alias.
