Kinda like just a brief, not "How I Met Your Mother" synopsis of our lives (parents, siblings, interests blah blah), until we met, got married, and how we ended up in the sleepy little village of blank?

Oh, we pretty much got my character done except for equipment and the fluff.

Once you come up with our last name and stuff, I can finish my profile and stuff, cuz I need the last name for Emma.

I think I'm getting tired. Lol

Wait, wait, wait. What do you mean by "moving parts"?

Sounds cool, can't wait to see how this all plays out. How are we gonna do our background story? Is it gonna be like, one background for the both of us, like a cooperative collaboration, or are we each going to tell our own story? I was just wondering how it would work in this instance.

Hot damn! Time to go shopping! Lol I'm gonna be straight cleric this time. I don't always have to be the bada$$. Lol I can't remember the last time I played a straight anything.

Ohhhh....okay, I forgive you for dotting me then. *hugs & kisses.

I'm sorry you lost it honey, but I know that whatever you write will be just as great. You are a wonderful story teller, and I know whatever you put down is going to be awesome. I really am sorry you lost it though. That's happened to me before and it's really upsetting.

Emma is the name that both of you like, so I'll go with that as a first name. I have so much trouble with picking a name, sometimes that's the hardest part for me so thanks for helping with that decision.

I love Shadow for the wolf, but your name....that's tougher. I definitely like Aiden and Dane as well, but when I say our names together, "Aiden and Emma",or "Dane and Emma", I think I like how Aiden and Emma sound together the most. Something about how the vowels sound together. :o)

Okay, so it doesn't have to be 3 names since there were only 2 Henry actually liked. Just let me know which ones you like. :o)

I did?

So, coming up with a name has been really difficult for this character, and I need some help. Halflings use simple names, usually only 2 or 3 syllables, and it either ends in a vowel or s sound. Plus since I don't know my married name, that makes it hard too.

I wanted something that would kind of go with her looks overall, as well as her personality. So, I'm going to list the names I found that seemed okay. I would like for you both to pick 3 names you like the most, and then we can pick the one that fits the best.

These are only in alphabetical order as I really have no favorites. I just really really need help picking one.

Okay, here we go.

Cara
Carys
Cate

Emma
Eres

Kady
Kira

Meara
Meera
Myla
Myrna

Let me know what you think whenever you get a chance.

My my, how naughty of you. You're a bad boobear. Lol

I don't remember dotting this. Did you dot me honey? LOL

Yeah, I like the second one better too.

We gets a doggie!!! *claps hands excitedly*

dot

We can do the whole hubby/wifey duo. It will be interesting to see how this goes. Lol I'm playing my polar opposite personality wise, as well as not being the one the gets all up in people's faces. Lmao

That whole look of hers says to me, sweet but sassy. Lol

I really think the whole ranger idea ties in really well with the whole rural village thing, and works in well as a "day job". Plus we get a pet, Yay!!Yaya!!! Lol

Soooo....halfling? I like that picture for her, but I don't even have a name for her yet. Lol

What were you thinking of?

After much deliberation, and considering the types of characters I've played nefore, and how I've played them, I think I'm gonna go with a Dwarven Warpriestess of Torag, and I'm gonna try Nuetral Good, cuz Henry says I play closer to that alignment than Chaotic anyways.

I like that I can offer support, as well as get in someone's face with my trusty warhammer. I've never tried playing a dwarf before, but they get bonuses to fight goblins and stuff, and their line of thinking and temperament seem to kinda go along with my own.

Of course, I don't really know how my character's personality is gonna be until it starts developing through play.

I also decided I would be one of the local Dwarves from the valley, and currently resides in the Dwarven stronghold of Varota.

I just have to make the character now, and come up with backstory and stuff.

I went to sleep with a headache, and even though I slept pretty well, I woke up with the same stupid headache.

We'll work on my character tomorrow. Hopefully it'll be a little quieter.

Man, I don't even know yet. My head is pounding so hard, I'm having a hard time thinking of anything.

You know I'll probably be chaotic good no matter what I am because I don't really know how to be anything else.

Okay, I'm here. Sorry it's taken me so long, I really haven't been doing too good today with it sounding like we're in the middle of a war zone.

It's bringing up a lot of ugly memories. I don't know....I don't really remember when the 4th started to become so awful for me, or why it makes me feel the way it does....it just does and I hate it.

So, I think we're gonna scrap the mouse guard idea for now. It takes way too much time to build the characters, and the system makes it way complicated and better suited to face to face around a table play, than online play. Plus, it would require Henry to have to control way too many NPC's, and since that was one of the things that was bogging everything down and making him tired, we're trying to keep that from happening again.

Henry found this book that's like a science fiction type setting and it seems pretty interesting. You wake up on a space station with no memory of who you are or anything really for that matter....so, it's kind of like an investigative type game where you have to figure out how to solve problems without killing everything in sight. I forget what it's called though. I've been too busy seeing doctors and getting stuck with needles to have much time for reading, and the constant killer headaches hasn't made it easy when I do have the time to read.

Just wanted to put that out there. I was gonna try to make a character once Henry had a chance to read over it. THat way we can see how easy or complicated it will be to use it online. If I can understand it, it should be easy for everyone else. Lol

So....not sure how much time the rest of us have had to look at this stuff, but I was just wanting to try and get everyone's thoughts on this whole Mouse Guard idea and see if y'all were still interested.

I know Bubba said his computer went blue screen on him, so I don't know if he's been able to get it fixed or not, or anything like that.

I'm trying to figure out just exactly what my mouse would do? I was thinking maybe her parents worked on the potions they use to make the scent for the boarders and maybe taught her about the stars? I know I want her to be a kind of science mouse from Sprucetuck, and I've got her age, her parents name and that stuff...it's figuring out all the other stuff I'm having problems with.

What do you think would be more useful? Someone that could work with elixirs and stuff of that sort, or someone that can draw and read maps and that sort of stuff using the stars and all that stuff. I'm really kinda struggling with it.

Okay, so I've been giving it some thought, and I think I'm gonna be a science type mouse from Sprucetuck. Her parents really believe in astronomical signs and wot not, so when their daughter was born under the full moon, they took it as some kind of sign or something.

I haven't worked out all the details yet, but I thought maybe she could be good at making elixers and that sort of stuff? Maybe they taught her about the stars or something? I don't know for sure yet, but what do you guys think?

Lots and lots of info to wade through

Gonna try to make a character this weekend

Well, now I'm home for a week and should be taking advantage of it to take it easy and stuff....it's just never been easy for me to relax.

I'm sorry it's taking me so long to look through stuff for Mouse Guard. Between work, Dr appts, family drama, and taking care of her baby almost nonstop for the last couple of weekends, plus thed Mon and Tues night stays over there to watch him until she gets home, I've jyst been exhausted.

I'm good with whatever anyone else wants to do, experience wise aznd all that.

Maybe I'll get a chance to read it at some point when I don't have to keep an adorable yet time consuming baby. My weekend was over before I knew it, and I spent most of it taking care of the baby. I guess that's the nice thing about not having kids of our own. I actually have time to help Brandi when she really needs it, and at the end of the night I can send them home and relax.

So, sleepy.

Dot....I better read, or at least skim through the book. Lol

Okay, sorry it took me so long to post here. I guess I was sort of distracted this weekend.

Vinny? Dude....seriously, are you okay?

Vinny? I hope you're okay, haven't heard from you in a while.

I love you too ya big lug.

Yes I doooo cuz you are just the sweetest most wonderful husband in the UNIVERSE and I LOVE you!! *kisses*

I just have to tell everyone what a wonderful husband I have. I forgot my phone at home today, so he used his lunch break to go home, pick up my phone, and brought it tho me....without me even asking him to do that. I LOVE YOU BOOBEAR!!

Edited

Dadgummit!! Stupid aliases

I share the same birthday as the lead singer of State Champs. Lol It's the opening band.

At the arena now. My husband is the BOMB, and got us the MOST awesome seats. I have to go on record and say this is the BEST Birthday EVER!!

Thank you thank you!! I plan on it. ;o)

I have to gjo home, pick up Henry, and go to his mom's house.

Henry's mom texted me to ask us over to celebrate my birthday tonight after we get off work.

I'm just really excited for my birthday tomorrow night cuz Henry is taking me to the Fall Out Boy concert, and he got me an air fryer for my birthday.

Awe thanks. It'll be okay.

I can see why you and Mark are friends. Lol

Thanks for the hugs. :)

I know, Mark says the same thing, except last night he said they could go eat a bag of di<ks. I laughed so hard. They are who they are, and there's nothing I can do about that. I just try not to let it bother me.

Thanks. I'm okay really. At least they stopped calling me stupid all the time. That's all I ever heard growing up. How stupid and clumsy I was, and why couldn't I be smart like my other siblings.
