Bracer |
My profile is now complete. To answer your questions:
Give me a one to two paragraph summary of what your character is about - their personality, background, or whatever detail you feel is important. Express Yourself! I'll be using these one or two paragraphs to get a feel for your character, as well as for your writing style. You can have more than two paragraphs of backstory, but put any further detail in your profile instead of in this thread.
Bracer was originally 'born' on Aballon, where they were raised and educated for several years. After that time, however, they journeyed to Absalom Station, interested by all of the various people they were able to meet there. It was also there that they learned how to fight, and when they returned to Aballon a few years later they found that they no longer quite fit in with their previous group of friends and associates, so they moved on. Having been fascinated with the Pact Worlds sun since they were able to first observe it during one of Aballon's short days, they decided to try and relocate closer to the massive celestial body. They eventually managed to connect with the group, and have been working with them since.
As for Bracer's personality, they are in general friendly to people they meet, unless of course those people are rude or racially insensitive. In particular, he extremely dislikes those who view synthetics (such as Androids or SROs) as less than the biological races. To their friends, they are supportive, and try to draw attention in any combat situations towards themselves.
I will work up a more lengthy and detailed backstory at a later point.
-------------------------------
What's your experience with PbP and/or Starfinder?
* I've played in a number of PbP games, a few of which have lasted for a sizeable length of time (I am in two games that are both over 1000 posts, with one being over 1600 posts). As for my experience with Starfinder, I have been playing and running it since it came out.
If you've played PbP before, link me two gameplay posts you've made that you're proud of or think are you playing at your best. If you haven't played PbP before, find me one or two gameplay posts by someone else here on the forums and tell me what you like about them.
* Link 1. I am Entiren Vraken.
* Link 2 and this. These two I put in together, they are directly next to each other in that characters posting history.
Do you agree to keep up with the 1+ posts per day described above, and acknowledge that if you can't maintain that you'll be replaced?
* Yes, I do agree and acknowledge.
If you have vacation or other reasons to be away for a while, I'll want to bot you. Are you OK with being botted?
* Yes I do. I will strive to keep an updated section on botting information in my profile.
Anything else I should know about you or your character?
* Not that I can think of right now. If you have any questions, just ask!

Recruitment will be open until Sunday 8th September, 9PM EST. That is 10 hours from now, by me DoubleGold.
Let me know if you have any questions!
But of course gameday is coming up and if you are going to be busy with that like me, you could wait for another DM to open up a Dawn of the Flame at a much later time.

Mini Update
I'm partway through selections with a couple of folks locked in and a tough decision on the last couple of slots. To help resolve the dilemma, I've sent some of the people in contention for those slots a PM with an additional question.
Please get your answers to me within the next day if you can.
Thanks!

1 person marked this as a favorite. |
As usual for recruitments, narrowing down a prospective pool of candidates is extremely difficult. You guys delivered quite the assortment of cool concepts and interesting characters - you certainly didn't make it easy for me. So much so that I couldn't quite cut down to only 4 people. So I'll be bringing in 5 players instead!
----
So without further ado, here are the selections:
Flint Conners - Brother_Guiness
Marisol - Losonti
Belmarniss - Archpaladin Zousha
Sammad - TerminalArtiste
Ordyt - CrusaderWolf
Come on over to the discussion thread and say hi.
----
For everyone else, thanks for your characters, and good luck with your future games! Here's to hoping another GM decides to do Dawn of Flame and picks up the group of you :>
