You got Tunder all wrong Dm. DoctorEvil. He doesn't like dead things, he likes killing things that should already be dead, like goblins, hobgoblins, orcs, ogres, giants, dragons, and any other traditional dwarven enemy.
DPCUs? what does that stands for?
As Barek correctly stated, DPCUs are the Australian military version of BDUs. It stands for Disruptive Pattern Camouflage Uniform, also known to Aussie military types as Auscam, or more humorously as Jelly-bean Pyjamas, due to the bean-shaped color spots.
Sorry to get so off-topic folks. Won't happen again.
The language won't be a barrier for me.
My English comprehension is quite goood. I don't have to translate to understand it. It is helpful, when you had to read roleplaing books in English since you started playing. In those days, most rulebooks where only available in english and today you find lot's of translation errors in the localized versions. This is why I prefer to use the non-localized rulebooks.
My written English seems to be sufficient. But I'm always thankful if someone highlights my mistakes.
I can't serve with Texan, but if it is really needed, my girlfriend ,who lived for 2 years in Austin, could certainly help ;-)
The player
Hi! I'm Marko. I've been on a break from gaming for a while, one that was not by choice, and I am hoping to sink my teeth into a fun story. I am decidedly undecided as far as political parties go, though I don't care why we're fighting, you bloody well support the troops out in the field. I've got some experience with DnD, most of it RL, and I'm pretty good at making some solid characters. If your table is still up to date I think I'm submitting the first fighter to the group. He'll be a fighter from level 1 to end game as well. So, for your reading pleasure, I submit Johnathan 'Steel' Harrington.
Background
The 'Story' of Johnny Steel
"Stop me if you've heard this one. Orphan on the streets is bullied for most of his life. Has to you his smarts to survive bullies and starvation, but swears that one day he'll have a better life. With all those nobles looking down at him, he swore to himself that one day they'd have to bow to him, have to recognize him as someone great..." The man pauses for a moment as he speaks, then gives a rather mocking grin, "Common enough tale now a days, especially in some cities. But let me tell you a story, one you haven't heard before. See, there was this orphan, one who made that very promise. Unlike all the others that made this promise to themselves, the ones who ended up joining the gangs or just getting themselves killed, this orphan did it. He got out of the slums, found himself a swords master, and learned how to take care of himself. Now he's out hunting down monsters to take a name for himself. Of course, round here the bards start talking about how spectacularly the guy dies right? Walks into a dragons cave, a den of giants, or a large ruin filled with nasty little goblins."
The man laughs, though it's not quite clear if he's laughing at the story or at you, "Well, here's where the story is different. See, this guy didn't die, or, at least, not yet. You know why?" The man leans forward, his mocking little grin daring you to ask, "Cause he's going to make it. He's too damned good not too. Never forget this name, cause one day you'll be proud to say you drank Johnny Steel!" The man laughs, knocks back the rest of the contents of his mug, and then starts to make some jokes about being the toughest guy in the bar. From the smell of his breath he's had a few to drink and he's none too careful about what he says or how loud he says it.
Of course, three tough looking men hear him cracking jokes, mostly aimed at them by this point, and don't take to kindly to it. But when they draw their blades you see the man laugh even more and start insulting them each one by one. The short guy with the big axe is obviously compensating for something. The big guy with scars all over his body probably fell down the stairs one too many times. The lean guy with the knife is, of course, ugly. The last ones not the most clever, but it riles them all up well enough. In a rage the trio charge the man.
It isn't until now that you notice one of his hands had been resting on the hilt of his sword. The first to reach him, the big guy, is now wielding a chair. And misses. he goes down in a couple seconds, brought low by the hilt of the mans blade, still in it's sheathe, knocking him int he back of the head. The man with the knife tries his luck next, hoping to be quicker, but his blade bounces of the mans armor and the next thing he knows, he's flying across the room. The drunken man had swung his sheathed blade like a club.
The last, the short guy, looks wary now, but another crack about needing to 'impress the ladies with a big blade' makes him charge, rage renewed. The fighter ducks beneath the axe, grinning all the while. A few of his hairs drift down, showing just how close a swing it had been and just how close he had been to losing his head, but the smile persists unabated. The drunk man looks into the axe wielders eyes as his own blade slides from it's sheathe and levels itself on the mans throat with expert precision, not wavering in the slightest despite the mans drunken state.
"Hi. I'm Johnny Steel. Before sure to let everyone know when you wake up who it was that took you down." With a grin, the man smashes the hilt into the side of the short guys head and the last of the toughs crumbles. The drunk man turns to you, smiling all the way, and says, "Let your sheriff know who it was that took down these crooks. They are crooks, by the way. Got a small bounty on each in the nearby town. Keep whatever bounty they had on em for yourself. They're small fry compared to what I'm after." With a laugh, the drunken man leaves the bar. It is several minutes before the guards do arrive to detain the men and several more before it becomes clear that they are, in fact, wanted. The bounty is actually pretty good, but you're told you'll have to wait till morning to get paid. And you only now realize that 'Johnny Steel' had left you with the bill for his drinks.
Real Background
Johnny Steel, or rather Johnathan Harrington, was born to a poor family that died of illness around his 5th birthday. Left with no money to pay of the families debts, Johnny was forced out of his small home to re-compensate those he owed and forced onto the streets. He was never very large or overly strong as a child either, but his stubborn nature and sharp tongue often got him into trouble. Thankfully the boy was smart enough to get himself out of trouble as well and with no small amount of luck Johnny managed to survive long enough to get off the streets.
Though he tells it differently, Johnny actually found himself working on a farm for a year or two before he ever found a swordsman willing to teach him. By the age of 18, however, he had found someone, a washed out old soldier willing to teach him in return for booze and alcohol. Johnny speaks of him as a wise old man with a few quirks, but there's no hiding the disgust in his tone when he does. In the end, Johnny left the man after he thought he had learned enough and began adventuring, often times taking down petty criminals or thugs for money and practice. Sometime during his travels he took on the last name Steel, thinking it added to his appearance. Over time he began to seek harder game, believing that the path to fame and glory awaits him at a dangerous creatures demise, and his search for magical creatures out of legends to slay and damsels to save would eventually bring him to Sandpoint.
Personality
Johnny 'Steel' Harrington is many things, the most obvious of which is arrogant, brash, annoying and insulting. The man certainly seems to think the world of himself and plans on proving to everyone that they should think even more of him. That said, at the very core of his person, Johnny... can be a bit of an ass. But that's not all he is. There are signs of his humanity through out his over blown story, and signs of something else as well.
If one were to listen to the rumors following the man, one would know that he had taken out enough two-bit thugs and crooks through out his travels to have ten times the amount of coin that he carries on him. Some, of course, went to his weapons. But the rest... well, in an unrelated note, several orphans have found themselves in good homes with enough gold to support them for a years in many of the villages Johnny has visited. A coincidence? Maybe. Or maybe Johnny is more then just the bravado and bluster he presents.
With that said, few people he's fought have claimed to have fond memories of the guy. Though he rarely, if ever, kills anyone with his large blade, his sharp tongue more then makes up for it. Whether as part of some grand strategy to keep his enemies from thinking to much while fighting him or simply because he can't shut his mouth, anyone whose earned Johnny's ire knows it rather quickly.
The fact that he's still alive does have to make one wonder though. Is he really as big a fool as he seems? If so, how has he made it this far?

Ill send you a PM, I have a few good ideas (I think anyways ^-^) and would love to be apart of this!
I am in on similar Mother's Day quest.
My Plan:
Bake her a cake - Check
Travel 200 miles to see her - tonight
Mow her grass - tomorrow, if the rain will hold off
Take her to dinner with my brother and sister - Tomorrow night instead of Sunday because my sister has to work Sunday (ER Nurse)
Try to take her shopping for some clothes (I would never try to by for her as I would get size or color or cut or something wrong) - I bet she will refuse to go... :(
Hi there,
Rogar Stefanssen, Weapon and Shield Ranger, sans weapon (he's looking for his family's ancestral warhammer).
He's a bit unhinged, with a minor dwarven superiority complex, though he doesn't hate half-orcs, elves, humans or little ones (his collective phrase for gnomes and halflings).
I'll have his full stats and profile set up soon in my profile, including a link to his character sheet.
I've made this character 4 times in Paizo's profile page, but I get called away to a meeting and it times out every time. 5th time's a charm!
About me:
Advertising Copywriter
Father of 3
Husband of 1
Libertarian of 15 years (I was voting for Ron Paul before it was cool, yeah, Libertarian hipster)
Born and raised on a southern hog and cattle farm. So don't pull cowboy crap on me unless you've actually got some cattle to go with the hat.
I can post all day, and all night, but not on Sundays, I've got church, family, nursing home church, church again, and home game from 7-10 on Sundays. That's my day of rest after all.
Look forward to playing if I get selected, if not a pox on your house.
Well maybe not a pox. Or maybe a pox, since we're all basically immune to poxes now a days anyways with vaccines and what not, so yes a Pox on your house if I'm not. :D
Okay, so it's about four am here. This, say, six hour window will be the dead zone for me. It's yet to be a problem with any pbp I've played, but actually running the combats (or in my fast paced PFS game) it did slow things down a little, but only by a few hours if that...
I'm a young-feller living in Sydney, Australia. Aside from any camping trips or late nights out, I can pretty much post around the clock with my phone and uni computers. I study Arts/Education and thoroughly enjoy it, and the deadlines only ocassionally kick me in the arse when the entire weighting of my courses are riding on three or four simultaneous essays. But the constant exposure to various poems, playwrights and history, and a library full of roleplay material has been awesome. I work a little as a BMS Electrician on the side, but that all depends on the nature of the site and whether they're in need of the extra pair of hands. So... the long and short of it is my schedule is really forgiving, so aside from some manner of disaster or drop-bear-attack I'd like to think I'm a pretty reliable poster.
I also remain blissfully unaware of American politics.
___
Also I'd love something to help Magnus with his goblin and giant lore, but aside from the Lorekeeper trait from the APG (+2 to history checks reg. dwarves and their enemies) I'm at a bit of a loss. Any suggestions?

You forgot to account for hoop-snakes in the front yard, bunyips attacking from the dunny, and yowies stealing your car keys... oh, and of course, dingoes eating your character sheet.
Just FYI Twigs I'm in Canberra at the moment... yeah, I know, I should be ashamed of myself. Also since it's 4am here I too have insomnia.
Ok some quick responses while I'm a boring conference call.
1) Aziza - thanks for the male stripper idea. I'm sure it would be memorable, anyway.
2) Rhanloi - I knew I'd forget someone. Guess you get snuggles. I'll review and get you on the update list tonight. No slight intended.
3) Tunder - I got what you were going for, I was just trying to be funny. apparently not so much.
4) Robin - a dissenting voice is welcome - as long as you know you're wrong. It's been my role in my marriage for years. Seriously, I like the build concept, will look at it in more detail tonight
5) Rogar - Dude, my house is SOOO pox-proof. Now my car, on the other hand...Heck, I'm getting booster vaccines today just to be safe. YOu are the first player to threaten me with deadly infection (but likely not the last....)
Maybe you can tell I'm having fun aleady. I hope the game goes this way when I have to do all the work instead of just criticizing yours. Off to foil Obamacare again, but promise to read and update the submission list (with Rhanloi this time) tonight.
If you get bored waiting, tell me your favorite movie (and why). That tells alot about a person, I bet. (My wife and I had the same favorite movie, even before she told me what mine was going to be). Also, take a guess at mine, if you dare...
Eh, it's my turn to talk on this call now. I wonder what they said while I wasn;t listening. More later, and thanks!

It's either The Blues Brothers, The Princess Bride or Back to the Future... yes, I have low tastes, but since I can just about quote every line from all three of those movies, I can only plead guilty.
If your wife decided what your favorite movie is, I can only hope she didn't stick you with something like Beaches, Ghost or Titanic... <Blech!>

Jake: [to Sister Mary Stigmata] Five grand? No problem, we'll have it for you in the morning. Let's go, Elwood.
Sister Mary Stigmata: No, no! I will not take your filthy stolen money!
Jake: Well then... I guess you're really up S!&+ Creek.
[Sister Mary Stigmata hits Jake Blues with a ruler for using that kind of language]
Sister Mary Stigmata: I beg your pardon, what did you say?
Jake: I offered to help you... You refused to take our money. Then I said: I guess you're really up S*!# Creek!

Elwood: Christ, Jake. Take it easy man.

Elwood: They're not gonna catch us. We're on a mission from God.

Jake: Book us for tomorrow night.
Maury Sline: Hold it, hold it. Tomorrow night? What are you talking about? A gig like that, you gotta prepare the proper exploitation.
Elwood: I know all about that stuff. I have been exploited all my life.

I do not have just one favourite movie. That probably says something right there. My top five are "Singin' In The Rain", "Casablanca", "His Girl Friday", "The Princess Bride" and "Les Miserables". They are listed in no particular order. I like musicals, comedies, and romance.
As a bonus :), my all time favourite tv series are "Yes Minister"/"Yes Prime Minister", "Top Gear" and "Pride and Prejudice". Yes, I'm an anglophile, from a distance. :)
As for personal information, I'm an older, over-degreed attorney who lives and works in Atlanta, Georgia. I'm married and we have five cats. We also live entirely too close to a Krispy Kreme doughnut shop.
Is the TMI section over now? :D
I'm a 22 year old man proud to say that Kung Fu Panda 2 is my favorite movie. Between it's exploration of deep, dark and sometimes depressing themes mixed with what it is to be yourself and what makes up you, along with some hilarious comedy, I found it to be a movie that made me enjoy every second of it and come out questioning things about my life. And I look forward to Kung Fu 3 becoming my favorite movie when it comes out the way Kung Fu Panda 2 replaced the first one on my list.
Also, when you get the chance, would like your opinion on my character and his build! Please and thank you!
Id have to say my fav movie is Braveheart.. The story is great, lots of action, including cleaving of arms.. An although he gets caught his movement carried on to win.. Its basically a true story as well.. One of them movies i can watch over and over never tiring of it.. A Lot of people mentioned The Princess Bride and while i do agree it is great.. It just can't top Braveheart imho..
Oh, personal info as well? Hmm... I am... a... 22 year old guy whose living on his own for the first time and trying to currently overcome severe phobia's and panic attacks pertaining to, well, living. I am currently using my trusty old labtop, it only tries to kill me every once in a while after all, and despite being a huge geek about different magic systems, their potentials and their implications for a story, I usually end up playing a guy with a big stick of some kind that runs up to the big monster and hits it. I read. I read a lot. I read an abhorrent amount of books.
I really really liked The Fifth Element. Bought it, and I buy very few movies. But I like it less over time. I like lots of movies. Forest Gump might be my current favorite, and its not even Sci-Fi or Fantasy. What is happening to me? As far as settings go, I really like the supernatural religious heaven and hell type movies like The Exorcist and and Constantine. I even liked the Hellraisor movies- in a I can't look away kind of way.
I went to college in Atlanta Varta and still get back there often. Did you play in Living Greyhawk? Wondering if we might know each other.
|
Favorite movie... there are many good ones, but the only one that just keeps standing out in front is Knight's Tale. Good actors, emphasis on actors. LOL. A pinch of comedy and one liner's, good music, and of course the moderated violence.
Action fantasy is what I watch, then everything else. Oh and my favorite TV series is always: Farscape, Frak this ship.
29, living at home with my loving folks, until I get a full time job. Substitute teaching is working but just paying bills, and all those loans. God, family, friends and D&D consume my life. It is actually pretty good and I am not complaining.
My traditional 'Favorite Movie' (ie the answer I've been giving so long I'm no longer sure if it is actually my favorite) is Brazil.
The recent movie which might have taken its place, but I won't know for sure for another few years is Cabin in the Woods.
My favorite movie that is older than I am is Casablanca.
My favorite movie which everyone else tells me is terrible is Sucker Punch.
And the movie which deserves to be up there somewhere, but isn't, is Blade Runner.
Personal info: The places I've called home are the Piney Woods of Northeast Texas (where I grew up) and Seattle, though I currently live in Michigan (this is what happens when you marry a tenured professor). I'm a corporate accountant, aspiring fantasy writer, and married lesbian with kids. I've been playing RPGs since the D&D Basic set and my traditional system of choice is GURPS, though Pathfinder may have finally beaten it out.
PS And my official guess is that the favorite movie of the GMs household is The Princess Bride, though I suspect that's too safe a choice.
@Cadas, I never played in the Living Greyhawk campaigns. At the time it was running we played Traveler, D&D (some), GURPS and many other, lesser known systems. There was also a four year break in there were I didn't play anything. Which is why I no longer have a perfect attendance pin for Dragon*Con. :)
Which school? I have a post-doc from Emory Law, if that helps any.
Favorite Movie: The Fifth Element hands down...everything from the Diva to Chris Tucker to the always awesome Bruce Willis is just fantastic in that movie. I especially love the weird tacky style of the clothes and the guns. A Leeloo, so fine (especially when she shows up at Corbins door, smokin!
Honorable mention goes to Phantom of the Opera / Sweeney Tod and as some have already mentioned, Back to the Future...oh and most of Tarantinos stuff.
Favorite Music: I really have no favorite genre or band. Current favorite numbers would be Totos Africa and most of Ronald Jenkees and Lindsey Sterling (I bought both of Ronalds CDs back in the day)
Favorite book: First Harry Potter as read by me when it just came out (really sparked the DnD imagination)
Many of those listed already would easily make a list of my favorites, chiefly The Princess Bride and Casablanca in my top 10.
But, #1: For me, it's a toss-up. Either Blazing Saddles, or Empire Strikes Back.
I would probably give the slightest of edges to Empire, but I would have to forget about ewoks, midi-chlorians, and Hayden Christianson, and just get nostalgic about a time when Darth Vader was truly the greatest villain of all time...
Favorite Move: Princess Bride, hands down.
First, for the dialogue. I could just listen to the audio track of this movie and I wouldn't lose a moment of enjoyment. The rhyming scene on the way to Gilder. The duel between Inigo and Count Rugen "STOP SAYING THAT!" Anything that comes out of Andre the Giant's mouth.
Secondly, the action. The duels, the wrestling. The clearing fo the Thieves' Forest.
It's the one movie I could watch every week and not get bored by.

The Princess Bride...at first I was concerned because it seemed like a kissing book, but then the main male character is killed early in the movie, and getting murdered by pirates is cool! Besides, how can ANYONE not love this movie?!? That's inconceivable!
I did see Les Miserables the other night and was amazed at the talented voices the actors/actresses had...especially given the fact the singing is real time and not dubbed! (As a musician I'm pretty picky about soundtracks, etc.)
Well apparently I have to go watch Princess Bride now then. Remember hearing the name of the movie before but never saw it...hopefully it will be like the time I realized I hadnt seen Fight Club (also top 10 material)
EDIT: Haha, "Inconceivable!!". Also, "Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die" So thats where that Order of the Stick reference is from!
Have never seen the princess bride, i have 4.5 terabytes out here in the middle east and that movie is apart of it but I never got around to seeing it. Maybe its worth a go.
Anyways, favorite movie, I'm a huge sucker for disney stuff. I remember seeing Treasure Planet opening day as a younger fella. It really spoke to my sense of adventure and opened my perceptions of fantasy. I believe that was my first experience of science fiction. The troubles and tribulations of the main character in ways were the same feelings that I had been feeling at that time and to see him become a great person by the end of the movie and make a life for himself made me go do the same. I still watch the movie now occasionally. Personally, Best Movie Ever.
With only slight info on the DM, and none at all on his wife.... I'm going to pull one out of the hat, here, and say E.T.!
Edit: Then I thought about his name and wondered if it might be Austin Powers?
Man, did I get us off the rails with a flippant comment. The Princess Bride is my families favorite shared movie and I have, many times, just listened on car trips while the rest watch. I thought that would be obscure, but underestimated the good and eclectic taste of gamers.
I do also know most of the script. Many other good choices (and some rather unique ones) mentioned. If you have not seen PB, it may be required viewing to get into this game (jk).
Far fewer apps today, so I am in process of reviewing and updating "The List 2.0." Will have it up soon. A few more PM's sent out.
Will see you again right soon.
Well apparently I have to go watch Princess Bride now then. Remember hearing the name of the movie before but never saw it...hopefully it will be like the time I realized I hadnt seen Fight Club (also top 10 material)
@Thalrik Korun - I don't think you can really be a fantasy roleplayer and NOT have seen The Princess Bride. Mind you I'm in my late thirties, and I do have some friends in their twenties who can't stand the movie, simply because they have older friends like me or parents who made them watch and re-watch the movie because they wanted to MAKE them like it... sad, but true...
"Have fun storming the castle!"
The background sections are complete. This character is basically done and ready for review/feedback.
Hmmm as for movies, I got a few:
Shindler's List - Oscar Shindler is a real man - successful, personable, true, and righteous.
Forrest Gump - This man embodies both effortless action, a central idea of Taoism, and non-clinging, a central idea of Buddhism. Plus a lot of people complain that the movie is too christian/conservative. So I see him as a master of all three traditions and, if I maybe so brazen, very close to the ideal human being - the only improvement I can see is in Intelligence.
Shaolin Soccer - HongKong cinema comedy so not very popular in the states. Its about a group of Shaolin monks trying to make a successful soccer team. Just image that for a moment.
Star Wars movies - always loved scifi and they are the scifi of scifi-es. (Did that even make sense?)
I'm sure there are more but they escape me at the moment. Anyways goodluck to all the candidates and let me know if you have any questions GM.
The List 2.0
Old applicants(maybe I mean applications?) are listed in , new are normal font. Still trying in chronological order, but no promises.
DIVINE
ARCANE
Rhanloi - half-elf Wizard, eminently forgettable apparently
MELEE
Barek Hisdren - fighter/dock enforcer. Fists are registered weapons
Magnus Ironfoot - dwarf fighter - understands dwarfs are superior to all other life forms
Jonathan 'Steel' Harrington - fighter - fights like a hero; acts like a jerk
SKILL
Robin the Jester - Halfling Bard (only one) - escaped court jester, sharp tongued and quick witted
Rogar - dwarf ranger - lost his families sword so only wields the shield until he finds it.
Absolutely has to be Blade Runner. The visualization of LA in 2019, the dystopian future, the detective noir-- it's amazing. The science fiction elements are great.
Then Snatch followed by Fargo. I like crime movies. No Country For Old Men and Unforgiven. Pseudo-westerns.
And The Rundown. It's my guilty pleasure. It has surprise Christopher Walken and Dwayne Johnson and monkies and good lord why do I like this movie so much?
Khelvor De'Mortis - halfling (only one) Paladin Divine Hunter; call him short and he'll shoot an arrow in your eye
I hate myself for this but....not in the knee?
On a related note, the other day I was doing a player made dungeon in the new Neverwinter online. In it, I talked to a bartender, who, when faced with the fact I was an adventurer said:
"I used to be an adventurer like you, but then I took an arrow in the eye"
I laughed pretty hard at that reference...better still his tavern was called The Lucky Arrow.
Ok, so that's 24 people for 6 spots. All are good choices, and selecting them down will be hard indeed.
Tonight I'm gonna look at everyone one more time, and then start making 1st round cuts. If I could I'd take you all, but Sandpoint would never be the same.
I will keep main recruitment open through tomorrow sometime, then close and make final cuts and invitations.
If you have a final case to make, I guess now is the time to start.

Hey now, arrows don't suffer from height disadvantage! :)
And for the quote, that is actually taken as a joke from a line an NPC says out of Elder Scrolls: Oblivion. Its one of those internet viral sayings that will probably never die now. Quite funny.
Thus why I called it a reference.
I am all to aware of that horrible meme, funny as it may have been :)
Foebreaker is a Warhammer, swords are for pinkycommo humans.

Highfive! I spent more time laughing then I did watching when I first saw it.
Favorite movie- Star Wars: A New Hope. It's the first movie I ever remember seeing and the only one I remember seeing at a drive inn. I was 4.
Huh... I was the only fighter. So now why should you take me on? Especially considering the fact that John's kind of a dick? Well... every group needs an ass. Might as well be the guy who can take a couple hits and dish it back to the people who need to be served some humble pie lightly seasoned with sword to the face.
