The Dog of War |

Welcome to the discussion, players!
As you work on your characters, please do create an alias and choose a suitable avatar to represent your PC. When characters are 100% done and ready for review, just let me know.
Also, please let me know if you have any questions at all. I'm here to help. Looking forward to getting started.

Vanyc |

It is with great anticipation that I, Vanyc present myself before you and hope that you will find it to your liking to include me in the brave and intrepid party that will explore these beautiful lands that many would consider Stolen. I would call myself a dabbler in the arcane arts, and one who would like to expand his currently not particularly formidable skills

Halungalom born in Rostland, in a wealthy family. He lived all his live in the city and never had any problem thanks to the wealth of his family. From all the curses of the world, hunger was his most unknown. Until he went to the slums with his cousin, in search of new places to sell his remedies and ointments. What he saw broke his very soul. Childrens from all races starvating in the middle of the streets, without any chance of survival in this city. He returned to his home, packed all his pertenences, and sold it in the market. Then he distributed the money in the slums to get this children feed. But the money lasted only a week, and they remained hungry. Halungalom asked his father for more money. He told them that he wanted to feed the children in the slums. And his father taught him a lesson. He told him that, if he feed those kids, they will need him during all his life. But, if he taught them to get food, to commerce, to work for his money, they will be self suficient and never will get hungry again. That was an eye opener lesson for Halungalom. He has a determination: he will teach those kids to be self suficient and he will lend them the money to begin his business. And for the money gathering, he would be an adventurer for some time. So, when the calling for heroes to explore the "stolen" lands was made, he packed his alchemical material and promised his family to return someday.

Jestem, don't forget an avatar for Vanyc. I will need a pic so I can make nice looking battle maps. :)
Yeah I am struggling for nice gnome images that I like. Am still looking though.
Main thing is though whether the character is ok?
EDIT: Can't seem to add an avatar to my character, it keeps on adding it to my original username rather than having it as an alias specific thing sorry. Any help would be appreciated.

Svalk Freyrsson |

Character sheet is complete, history is still in the works. I'm toying with the traits to put him there without error, and working on using actual names and such from Golarion, since immersion = win.
It's hard to find good barbarian avatars without them screaming at something.

Vanyc |

"Wow, a lot of short, stocky people coming along on this charter," says a slim human as he rests against a wall, a longbow gripped in his dexterous hands.
OOC: Still working out the final changes like gear and what not and then he should be ready.
Perhaps we are short, but at the end of the day, the tree that grows the tallest has the hardest fall
A gnome steps out of the shadows, simple robes covering his frame. A pony follows him at the end of a rope, full saddlebags evident.
My name is Vanyc, I do believe that I am to be a companion of yours whilst we explore the Stolen Lands. What do you believe our chances to be of survival? I hear that many other groups such as ours have succumbed to those Lands

True, there aren't too many gnome avatar pics available. Nonetheless, hopefully you can find something suitable.
I'm not sure why the difficulty in getting things to work right. You should be able to go under your account, look at your alias list, choose 'edit' on the right, and then choose/change the avatar pic associated with the alias. Other than that, I'm not sure how to help.

Okay everybody, I'd like to go over the sheets carefully this weekend, so if possible, please try to get everything 100% completed (including backgrounds and full equipment lists please).
Assuming everybody gets his sheet done today or tomorrow, we should be able to kick off the IC thread early next week. :)

Alright, as far as I can tell my sheet is done. Avatar is finally up and everything. Sorry about asking about it, must have been having a bad day or something

The Dog of War |

Jestem, I looked over Vanyc, here are my comments so far. I have not yet looked at his gear or spells.
1. It looks like his ability score totals come to a 21 point buy.
2. Some of the combat numbers don't quite add up. For one thing, his weapon damage looks like they are for medium size weapons, but his would be small. Also, please double check attack bonuses, they don't look right.
3. Looks like traits are missing.
4. I can't find hit points. Maybe I overlooked them.
Thanks!

** spoiler omitted **
Thanks!
The middle aged template takes 1 point from all physical scores and adds one to each mental score. I created him using a basic 20 point buy and then added the template at the end of it. Will look at the rest soon
EDIT: Looked over other areas you asked me to look at, I believe he is properly made now.

Joffrey |

Sorry to keep you waiting.
Joffrey has been a priest of Torag now for ten years, and was educated and trained to be one for a further twenty years before that. He was born and raised in a mining village in Rostland to parents who worshipped Torag, but were never particularly devout. He had always thought that he would likely end up working in the mine.
He was in his mid teens when he felt the calling to priesthood. It didn't come to him in a dream or from a visitation from Torag or any of that nonsense; he simply had a nagging feeling that that was what he should do. After a few years of this nagging feeling, he finally gave in and persuaded his parents to let him go to the nearby seminary.
The training was long and arduous, as one might expect of a Dwarven religious institution, and while he made friends, he did so knowing that he would probably never see them after completing his education. Funnily enough, he was right. During his fortieth summer, he finally finished his training, and was made a priest of Torag. He was sent to his home village to take over from the priest who had previously been sent there; a dwarf now reaching the end of his life.
Joffrey has now lived for ten years in this village serving as its priest. He hasn't been needed for more than basic healing and for running services for the local dwarves, so much of his free time was spent in study; studying politics, engineering and the faiths of others. This is the main reason he was asked by the elders of Torag's priests; they felt that his knowledge would be useful in setting up this new kingdom and in making sure that his faith was well represented.

I'm sorry that I haven't gotten around to posting his entire background this weekend, but I've had UNIX studies for my final this week, and I found I was missing an assignment. I'll make sure it's up and running by tomorrow night, I promise. No more delays.

Vanyc |

It's okay, guys. My weekend wound up busier than expected anyway. I would like to get everything finalized in today or tomorrow, though. I'm hoping to get the game started soon. :)
Any movement on the game? Am rather eager to start is all, and not knowing what is happening is making Vanyc nervous.

Same.

Vanyc |

Ok. A whole week without news from the GM. If this continues until friday, we will post a GM recruitment post again. Alright?
Dog of War: We truly want you back!
Aye, Dog of War we would like you back, but the fact you have disappeared on us is slightly disheartening

Davor Mason |

Agreed; I want Dog of War back, but I also want to play some time this year ;). I mean, I enjoy reading the adventure paths that I plan to run, but this is one I really want to play first and have deliberately avoided spoilers for...
Lucky, I personally got too impatient and set one up in hopes to attract placers who didn't have games anywhere else.
