I'm on U.S. Pacific Time, normally. I'm a grad student, so I should be able to post at least a few times during the day, and probably a few times on the weekend.
Also, I have part of Jaerric's background posted on the profile. Should be able to finish that in a bit, and then (depending on if my family wants to go anywhere or what) hopefully get the rest in tonight or tomorrow.
Edit: Blarg, almost forgot--if we need an arcanist, I can turn Jaerric into a sorcerer or witch with nearly the same background (don't think a Wizard would really fit how things are going). I can stat him up as such once I have this stuff finished.
