Pokemon nut since 1999, I have at least one game/generation. Picked up D&D in 2005 via 3.5, have played several of it's iterations, a retroclone, a few White Wolf ges, Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay, Call of Cthulhu, and a few others until just recently, when its been just Pathfinder Society.
Lasted longer than last night, though I'm afraid that I can't go on much longer...

I know it's Kingmaker. Skull said we'd probably see the results this weekend. As for the Shalelu comment...
Gotta love them ears man
Spoiler:
Yeah, the Shalelu comment was for Jade Regent... I was looking in that thread mere seconds before posting, and was still sort of thinking about it, lol
What he probably means is don't roll any dice, don't choose feats and buy equipment until he announces the people who will be in the game officially, or if you are chosen as a possible backup. Crunch is a catch-all term for stats and info about a character or encounter.
Since Skull doesn't want us to roll any dice, I'm rescinding my rolls from earlier, and will discuss actual character creation beyond my chosen traits after the selection has been made and if I am chosen.
And i sent it in ^^ Here's hoping. It was fun just putting this together ^^ not to mention the sound of kingmaker. The group i play with in person tossed it around as an idea before we went a different direction.
If chosen, this will actually be my first play by post for roleplay. I've done it before, only that was a "pick a nation, roleplay what happens, change alliance, whatever," about 5 years ago now...
Being able to take the bad with the good is what good roleplay is all about! Sure, it's fun to play abnormally powerful characters (such as the ones you can make from Mythic Adventures), but playing a character who is almost dead-average or even below average and make them viable is still fun. Imagine a young man who is dead average but wants to be a great hero. Slowly over the course of his career, with the assistance of his allies, he achieves greatness from his own two hands. Isn't that just as cool as a guy who has maxed out strength and health, and seemingly has all the glory right at the start?
