You and Nightflier can probably have fun thinking up jokes on who has the worst ISP and repair teams.
"The ISP in <blank> is so bad..."

Yup. In another thread he posted that the European bad weather (where he lives) was causing problems and he didn't expect things to improve until the new year (repair people are poor during the holidays).
I am ready to break out the fireworks.
Sounds good to me.
Right now we could use you Eric as all the people on the list have not joined the Out of Character thread to get the game started.
I put a request for others in the DM thread to come forward but haven't found a response. :<
Just a reminder to the others that were thinking of participating, we have four characters checked in but could really use one of the others that said they were preparing a character to check into the OCC post forum; so, we can get the game rolling.
Thanks Nightflier!
Checking in and setting up my Explosives Factory. Strictly for 'testing' purposes.
Is there a pointer to the PbP Discussion thread?
One idea might be to play with the dimensional nature of Planescapes with Sigil and being a mercenary company. I looked through some security company names and then made up an Acronym name. Guardian Operations and Divine Solutions aka GODS of Sigil. If that idea offends people's religious nature, my apologies and we can think of something else. Might also go with; Freebooter Investigations and Sorcererous Tactics aka FIST of Sigil
My character knows the extract Cure Light Wounds which means that I can make it up in potion form. Just pay me the material cost and I'll brew the poison, uhh, I mean potion, yeah, potion. No poison here Miss Paladin. I'll just be over here if you need anything.
Go-Boom is ready to go. I like the Mouse Guard and Burning Empires system for 'Alignment' (Name your personal Goal, Friends, Enemies, and Beliefs). I am also fond of Dread Questionnaire (answer 5 questions on topics that relate to your character and past). Fate system is good, too, with the Aspect system where you get 'rewarded' for following your Aspects and need to 'pay' to ignore them.
How are other people coming with their characters? Will people be ready to start this week? Go-Boom aka Smerg
Background Go-Boom was like many goblins. He was born one of the most odious creatures that you will likely meet. This made him pretty much normal as goblins go. He was like many of his kind for he was lacking in many qualities like strength and constitution but blessed with great ingenuity and agility. If anything, he was more to the extremes of his kind which made him even more despised by some as he was even more bookish than many goblin youth. If there was a real difference in Go-Boom it was his his embracing of the new 'science' of Alchemy. He took to the imbibing of dangerous concoctions like a goblin dog to fresh meat. Go-Boom knew that he wasn't blessed with a brilliant body but he was certain that he could make one. He even felt that if time allowed that he might conquer death itself. Go-Boom believes a few key things. He believes that he is destined to live long enough to find his formula that will have him live for eternity. He believes that any problem can be solved by the copious application of dangerous chemicals and explosives. He believes that Co-Go-Co Kisune the Fox Queen of the Goblins is the most beautiful goblin in the planes. If Go-Boom has something he dislikes it is wizards and their claim to be the most powerful workers of magic. He is determined to show that Alchemy is the stronger magic. In the pursuit of these goals he has joined the Mercykillers as they aren't particular in how a job gets done as long as justice prevails. Lock the berks up or blow'em up and anyone that might be standing too close when the bomb drops. That is Go-Boom's philosophy.
Okay, got skills and most equipment added. I need to work up a background.
This is Smerg. With Eric changing to a rogue or bard it looks like we have a lighter front line. I've decided to go for a heavier damage arcane with the following Alchemist: Go-Boom. I need to do some more to finish the character. He has brew potion with the spells of; Cure Light Wounds
I'll charge the group 25gp for any of these potions that you want brewed. I can also do some alchemical substances. --------------------- I was wondering if as a Goblin that I could get a racial bonus like the Gnome Pyromaniac (treated as +1 level for determining effectiveness of bombs that do fire damage). I was wondering if I could something like the Gnomes or Half-Orcs for the level bonus (Gnomes add +1/2 /lvl to number of bombs and Half-Orcs adds +1/2 to bomb damage) |
