Sea Faring Dwarves - "Tonn Sealgaire" - Based around an island chain. They are a reaver / trader culture, not dissimilar to the Vikings, but with a more Celtic feel to their background, beliefs and naming structure.
The most usual player classes found amongst the "Tonn Laochra", or the adventuring part of the tribe, are Barbarians, Aquatic Druids and Bard. Amongst the island based part of the tribe, or the "Tonn Teaghlaigh", these classes stretch to include Rangers, Summoners and Witches.
The ability to make the Power Wrought weapon was actually that of Neald's, one of the Asha'man, not Perrin. Neald was the one with the skill. The other Asha'man, the Wise One's and the Aes Sedai just provided a circle with which to sustain the amount of power needed to forge it.
(Which, as Neald is on a par to Moiraine (Old un-drained Moiraine) in Power, means that the power needed to forge it, was HUGE! (Moiraine and Siuane were the two strongest Aes Sedai, till Nyanaeve, Egwene and Elayne show up))
A character needs to be able to wield the One Power to make a Power Wrought weapon.
I am always up for a Playtest so if there is a spot (On these boards. Cant really deal with another now, sorry), let me know. I'm thinking a Dwarf Alchemist!
Just said I'd mention it so that you could change it later if you could. Would love to play but sadly do not have the book or a PDF. I wish you well in the gaming!
Apperance: Robert McTavish is a tall man, standing at a height of 6ft 4. He has long, curly red hair and a thick curly beard to match. His eyes are a shade of the deepest blue and often described as mad and unsettling.
Family History:
Robert McTavish, of the Highland McTavish's, is a very eccentric man. Eccentric being code for mad as a bag of ferrets. Robert comes from a very wealthy family. His father, Robert McTavish and his mother Roberta McTavish, were both exremly well liked in the proper circles.
The McTavish fortune was made in Cabers. They had been the number one Caber Suppliers, to the Highland Games, for over 200 years. Robert, upon gaining control of the family buisness made a radical change to the company, a change some claimed was "Absolutely mental!"
After the "Triangluar Caber", flopped and the buisness lost its commision with the Highland games, the family suffered a severe financial upset.
Having wasted thousands of pounds on the development of the "Triangular Caber", Robert proceeded to waste thousands more on Dodo eggs, a delicacy he would use to drown his sorrows.
Having heard of von Ryuko's mad ploy, and with a serious need for more Dodo eggs and money to design a "Flat Caber", the mad Scot intends to win this bet and earn himself some new land.
Just glad you are okay bud. Forget about the absence. We are all adults here and have all suffered something like what you went through, in a way. Chin up and look to the future hey?
I don't think there is one really. If there is I have not seen it. I'd suggest just watching a few in progress Threads on the PbP IC board. You'll pick it up fast. It is not too difficult. It is mainly all about the description. All of the dice are rolled on the boards. To learn all that, just click the "How to format your text" button under the Text box. Other than that... It is all down to the GM.
Hey Ringtail. I'm sure Tar has told you, but I felt I needed to say something too. Im out of contact for a little, till I can fix my laptop or get a new one. Ill be back as soon as I can. Sorry bout this.
As for myself... I am proud to be a small fish. I keep to myself so I do not blind the world with my brilliance... Well that or I am too damn lazy to do anything but RP. ;)
Ah yes but everyone who does not win the Emmy, is atleast aware that they were to be contending for one...
I do not believe anyone should be insulted, by not being on this list, however. I have been thinking about it and I realised that, although I have never said it, nor given it too much indepth thought, I too have a list. I have met both GM and PC alike here, who I would happily play an IRL game with. As I have met both GM and PC, who I would rather not play with at all.
The thing is it all comes down to how self onfident you are as a person. People with low self confidence will see they are not on this and be crushed or angry. People who are very self confident will see this, ponder how they could improve, blow it off as a bad hobby and go back to not giving two f@~!s and doing their own thing! :D
