And now for something completly different, Fluff:
Anakasta stands a staggering...normal height height of five eight, has strikingly...bland blue eyes and horrifyingly bad white hair that falls to her ankles. Seriously, her hair is a mess, the tips drag on the ground if she forgets to braid them, small twigs constantly catch it and, by Desnas starry eyes THE SPLIT ENDS!!! A nose broken more times than she cares to remember, a mouth missing half her teeth, about two dozen knife scars on her face and a body covered with burn marks from being burned at the stake last year, Anakasta looks like a terrifying monster. The kind children run from and parents shield the eyes of babies from.
It was no small wonder she was driven form her home as a vile monster, but, she was alive and that was not a bad thing nor a small thing. A short time later, she had taken in with others like her,driven from their homes. With so very little, her small group turned to banditry and with her leadership, they became surprisingly good at it. Their brief period of good fortune only lasted a summer and fall, the cold winter brought a roundness to her belly and hunger. The following spring Anakasta and only her son set out to the River Kingdoms for a new life, the prospect of wealth and a new babysitter. The rest of her gang, well, they could not accompany her...on account of death and all. :) Anakasta is ruthless, brutal and savage when necessary. She presents a facade of the caring, loving mommy and truly is to her son. Her world is very much a me and mine are the only one that matter and has no qualms about ending anything that threatens that. Her love and loyalty are hard won and once gained, you may wish you never had them. Anakasta:

Little bit risky, but i like the character idea. If I am fortuitous enough to be picked, I will create an online character.
Dame
Revenge is all well and good, however, perhaps the better word should be Justice? Revenge is petty word, over used and burdened with emotion to often turning a good seed to bad apple. With a light fed by the righteous wrath of the city, one can have the same effect. With the bonuses of providing oneself with many allies, a possible legal backing and the lessened chance of another seeking...revenge on oneself. Be wary of battling a Thrune, they are hard to kill and quite...tenacious. Sips from her cup of coffee, staring intently at the small group.
With the whirlwind of posts and activities, I can see The Dame constantly standing with her mouth open in shock and awe at the audacity of the youth these days. As well as face palms and variations of "I'm to old for this sh@t."
I GM 99% of the time, so when faced with the prospect of creating character I suffer from WHAT DO I PLAY SYNDROME! I will have a character for consideration shortly. We seem to have a lack of arcane...
Dotting for interest.
I apoligise for the sparseness of my posts,I left my previous company of 16 years and am still adapting to my new...everything, the 12- 16 hour days 5 days a week and 1/2 day on Saturday along with 330starts have been trying. I will create an online character if chosen, but I believe Dame Jarvis would have the following to chime in with I do not wish to see my Opera House blown to smithereens, the consuming of coffee and pastry of good quality is a pleasure not a a chore, and there shall be mint within this city. I want my julips to taste proper!
Mmmmmm, mint tea....
Intro:
The redaction’s of the many years have allowed the House of Thrune to edit history as they see fit. History is swept under the rug, deeds thrown out with the rubbish, and people written out of existence.
Now, a reckoning has come from one thrown away, namely, myself. I am known as Dame Resadona Jarvis. I married into the family many decades ago, before my name became synonymous with devil worship and wickedness. My maiden name is Thrune, but , I find it laughable if you try and find mention of me after so many years of purges. I doubt any even know of me. Now, this lout with my blood in his veins sickens my city and my home. I will no long stand for it, I will no long tell myself I am to old to be of use. I cannot battle a country, but, for this city, my home of the many decades, I will rise and stand with what heroes I can find and take back our home. Personal Info:
Dame Thrune stands just over six feet four in height with waist length silver grey hair, purple eyes and a plump figure. A steel gaze and stern look greet all before her, giving way to a kinder smile when in private with friends and family. Her Garb matches the occasion, but her sword stays strapped to her side unless common sense dictates otherwise. The Dame is a serious person, dedicated to her cause and her allies, but not strictly bound to the notions of absolute law and order. She has no compulsions of voicing her unfiltered opinions and cutting holes in thin, poorly thought out ideas and plans, bu twill also make sure everyone is allowed to speak and voice their ideas. Resadona's party role is firepower, party support, and knowledge skills.

Dotting for interest. I am a Charter Subscriber and have read and prepped for to run this game for my table top crew. I can separate character and player knowledge, but, please let me know if this is a concern for you. Thank you!
Surprise round: The Black Thorn and Canacha Bais can take actions!
Grimples! Arani and Canacha: As you move around and investigate, you both hear tiny voices chuckling....
Spoiler:
The Abrasax The Black Thorn Canacha Bais Lensar Major Mirais Talon Skyfall
Initiative: The Abrasax The Black Thorn Canacha Bais Lensar Major Mirais Talon Skyfall Grimples!
A large mallet slips from the hook it hangs upon, slamming into the floor loudly. Next to it, a meat cleaver swings on its hook to sharpen its rusted edge against a large knife sharpener. Small colored lights drift down from the ceiling and your feet feel a bit colder.
1st round:
Definitively magical auras here. 2nd Round:
There are six separate auras the most powerful is only faint. 3rd round: All of the auras are faint, a Knowledge Arcane DC 15 can identify the schools of them
More likely, Jinkies! Ghosts!
This old workroom houses numerous old slaughterhouse tools, veterinary equipment, and woodworking tools, all of which are covered with a thick layer of dust through which strange tracks and patterns have been traced. Heavy mallets, crumbling ropes, and tools for restraining animals hang from pegs in the walls or rest atop leaning tables. To the southwest, a trap door sits ajar, propped open by a block of wood. The second Mirais opens the door, blood starts weeping up from the floor, some of the tools rock in place and the floor starts creaking like step are coming to her! DC 20 Knowledge (arcana):
The effects are being generated by the cantrips mage hand and prestidigitation, but by what? DC 15 Knowledge (nature): The strange tracks look like Grimple footprints.
The iron gate blocking the entrance to this hallway is locked (hardness 10, hp 60, break DC 25, Disable Device DC 20), but the lock can be opened with the key Abby found. The middle of the gate has a wide opening in the bars through which a Small creature could wriggle with a DC 15 Escape Artist check. Just inside on Mirais's left hangs the mangled remains of a door, once painted like the surrounding wall, now hanging open.
*Grabs stick, beats thread, throws stick back into yard* Lack of reliable internets is making me an unhappy fish..
This isn't an "Anniversary Edition." It's just a hardcover edition. neither nor denies any other may or may not; it exists outside of and apart from that. So very much! And to a gamer like me! Woot!
This isn't an "Anniversary Edition." It's just a hardcover edition. neither nor denies any other may or may not; it exists outside of and apart from that. Selective reading is always fun! I will misinterpret that statement to my own amusement and look forward to the big Tenth Anniversary plan.
Both of the rooms in front of Shark Maw are mostly debris free and contain a desk, chair and cupboards. Perception DC 15: One of the desks contains a large sturdy key.
The trio of hounds snarl and bark for a moment more, then dart out the door. The largest keeps its head down and it tail between its legs as it flees, whimpering pitifully.
Updates soon, I've not forgotten my little band of misfits!
No worries to everyone life it seems to be difficult for a lot of us right now
Sos. Was a good pay out, only a little knife work, nothing nasty. Today was a good day. Wonder if Lavender is around. Na, my second best set of clothing dissipated last time she was over. Sos strides thru the door, his average frame, standard looks and unarmored figure at odds with the looks of respect and polite words given him by the local patrons. Sturdy boots, a matching belt, standard clothing identical to most in Riddleport did little set him apart from the other men. The finely crafted blade at his side, however, screamed a different tale. It's hilt was worn, well used, but cared for. The metal blade, clean, sharp and dull in color, brought looks of fear and unease to some. Old Thunder, neat, double please. What's Marny cooking today and does she have anything to go? Uncle Fritz's leg isn't feeling well, and he wants some dinner.
Bluff: Sending a secret message asking about "work".
With their attention focused on the terrifying female in front of them, the animals mostly ignore Canacha.
The largest dog lays on its belly and whimpers, while the other dogs continue to bark at Mirais furiously. None of them look willing to advance currently.

"There are dogs here...sleeping, hopefully through this all."
Spoiler:
With a several snorts and snarls, two mangy mutts and massive hound poke their heads out of the tangled debris. Sniffing the air they whine and bark loudly at Mirais.
Tinkering with the lock for a minute or so, Arani poss the stubborn lock open.
Broken desks, scuffed tables, and torn chairs crowd the thirteen horse stalls, all of which are covered with a healthy layer of dust. A grated-off alcove along the southeast wall seems to house the only relatively intact wares. Gm Fish Stuff:
Perception 10:
There is a strong oder of urine, feces and canine here Perception 20: You can hear the distinctive sound of snoring and whimpers from the location marked on the map. They sound like dogs or such.
Barbarian, the character will be going for the melee slot with a secondary focus on arcane and skills. This is a sample of my character at second level, it needs to be updated to your guidelines, but provides an outline of my intent. I plan on an even level progression until about 8th level.
Party of all grapples, unarmed strikes and natural attacks...hmmm.
Currently leaning toward a tiefling bloodrager, pit born. Or Priestess of the Sacred Sting...
Excellent! I will have a character prepared for submission in the next day or so. I hope you will allow background skills, they are nice way to round out characters.
Any objections to someone that owns this Path? Many people dislike that, but I will be honest about it. I would like to find out before creating a character, if possible. Thank you!
Before I make a submission for you, I must tell you I am currently running this for my tabletop group. I do keep meta knowledge out of the game, but some are uncomfortable with it. My current front runner for a submission would be a barbarian/Alchemist with Technologist and going for exotic weapon Chain Saw. Let me know if any of this is not to your taste!
Sailor Moon? ...sweeet! I've got to finish Iron Gods and return to Shattered Star, finish that one before I'm allowed to be a player again. One of my players ran Dragons Demand with an all dwarf party. Ended with a TPK...IT WAS FRAKKEN AWESOME!!!! He still has PTSD from it, but I believe he will run King Maker for us.
That will cover most of the routine issues. SO, if you are trying to pick the lock or squeeze between the door, Roll them Dice! I will roll dice for you in secret, if needed for some actions, but I try to make it rare. We are all gamers, even if it's the message board roller, no one likes to let someone else roll for them!
History 20:
The Fair Fortune was a slaughterhouse in Redroof’s earliest days, but it was remade into a thriving stable under the direction of the now-dead Juliac family, who insisted their fortunes come from the care of creatures rather than their deaths. This aged stable leans slightly to one side, its roof precariously propped up by aged wooden walls. The air reeks of stale urine. Checking Doors: The livery’s front and back doors are locked shut and chained (hardness 5, hp 30, break DC 18, Disable Device DC 20), but so loosely that a Medium creature can squeeze through with a DC 15 Escape Artist check (Small creatures just treat the doors as difficult terrain). The livery’s back door is not locked but is tenaciously stuck (hardness 5, hp 30, break DC 22).
Excellent! Map is at the top of the page under campaign info as Current Battle Map.
That looks to be the plan, just need a final conformation and we can move on. Net looks better today and the website seems more stable...
