Nice!
Great!
My character is done, crunch-wise. Still need the fluff, though, so I'll add personality, background, and other details tomorrow.
Glad to hear it! Any idea on how long it will be before the IC thread starts?
|
I'll try to get mine finished up today, or tomorrow at the latest. It's been a busy week, and now I find there's 31 new countries to distract me...
;)
I understand very much the word "deadline."
Haven't had a chance to read all of the submissions. But has anyone submitted a country ruled by vampires, where the populace is held in thrall as a ready blood supply?
Background and other details are all finished, so I should be ready to go.

I haven't read all of the submissions yet either. I just keep obsessively checking to see if any new comments have been posted about my entry. I think there is one undead entry, but don't know if it's vampires or what.
Was that going to be your submission?

I wish I had the time. Lawyering takes up most of time unfortunately. Seems a lot of people have problems that need the assistance of lawyers.
But that idea is not very original. That is the premise of Rifts' Vampire Kingdoms.
I was just curious.
An idea for country is one based on the premise that the country is fighting an eternal war against an implacable foe such that the entire society has become one big army. Perhaps, the thaumaturgist leaders of the country delved too much into the planes and opened a gate to the demon realms they could not close... a couple of books I've read has this premise. Nothing pumps up testosterone than an epic last stand.

I don't know what you guys are talking about. What submissions? is there a contest?
Great! Everyone's done with their character!
So how will we be meeting up? Will we know each other? Or will we meet each other in a bar?

Falcon's Hollow is a frontier town and it attracts a lot of adventurers, mercenaries, rogues and other misfits. Tis quite natural for newcomers to meet each other at a bar, inn or general store.
Perhaps, your characters have already worked together on some other job then split up then decided to get together again in Falcon's Hollow, ala Dragonlance. Guys, what you think?

That's good. Maybe, though, our ancestors knew each other, many decades ago, and we have learned this and decided to meet up...
...Naaaaah...|

Why yes, there is a contest. It's a little thing called RPG Superstar, as in the "RPG Superstar Top 32" after my name. I suggest going there and placing your vote for my country, Iskandria. :)

I'm up for the standard meeting in a bar or inn, since in my background I just arrived in Falcon's Hollow. Also, at 1st level, it doesn't seem believable (to me) that we've already worked together.
You had me at god-kings :D
Glad ya liked it. :)
Well Fjyndel heard of the lumberjack-consortium and such, and as a druid he will seek out things to know before he tries to strike against the consortium. Best way to get to know the lumberers should be the bar, where they should be drunk... and have a loose tounge.
*Sniff*
I have always loved designing worlds--and I have one that i really like--and I missed this!
All these times I hear about a 'contest', and I assume it's something unimportant!
Oh well. I am too sad to really examine the others, but SargonX, yours looked good. I voted for it. i only wish I could've put up my own submission...
Oh well. No use crying over spilled yak milk.

Yep. I think that, assuming that nobody woukld mind the 'cliche', we just meet up in a bar.
...as long as we can avoid...
Who do you call halfling here? I'm a gnome!

Ooops.
The funny thing is, I didn't call you a halfling. I called you a human. The 'halfling' part was accurate. Remember Quince?

Err... no, whom should I remember? I never met someone named Quince.
And calling me human! That's a shame... for humans!

Anyways, I still have this cool sit. Still, it isn't used much...
Sorry for my thread jack.

You have made a certain Quince Darkivy, halfling sorcerer, very, very mad.
And calling me human! That's a shame... for humans!
I have to agree with that. The only thing worse than an elf is a human!

Please proceed to the Game Thread.
Now to nurse this f@#$ing hangover. Don't drink and write PBP intros. It is hazardous to your health.
Oh! Please excuse the cliche, i.e. meeting at an inn again. New year's Resolution: I promise to be more original. :D

That's fine. We did ask for a cliche, anyways.
By the way, we'll be using invisible castle for rolls. :D
Got it.
Sorry for beeing late... I'm on it.
May I buy a whistle for my dog? I seem to have forgotten that little thing...
How much would that whistle cost? I haven't found a price for one.

Well, it's in the PHB, but as you don't have that, I'll look it up.......
...Here it is!
Signal Whistle:
8sp., 0lb.
Ah! I looked under whistle. Thanks!
Radavel, Girther may be on the verge of doing something stupid, rash, illegal and at least slightly violent. I don't want to hijack the story line so drop me hint if I should simmer him back down. ^_^

What are you planning that I should be worried about? Put it in a spoiler.
Edit: Now I see it. How about challenging him to a game of mig-a-mug-tug or knivesies. Just got a very good description of the game from Nick Logue. You may wanna check that out... its under the gamemastery modules discussion board under the heading "Knivesies & Mig-a-Mug-tug."

Just wanted to ask: everyone here above 18 years old?
Falcon's Hollow is a rough frontier town with some very decadent and evil people. Hence, the perverse practice you have observed at the Sitting Duck. There are other practices in other places in Falcon's Hollow's that equal or exceed this. Hence, if this is not your cup of tea, please advise me. I don't wanna offend anyone.
If you do not object, I would also like to know that.

I have no problem with the mature content.
I'll survive it.

Ditto.
Is there a temple to Torag in town? Girther is nearly broke and may need a place to bed down for the night. He can always sleep in an alley…with one eye open.
Sadly, I am far beyond 18 years, but I have no problems with any "mature" content.
Unless it involves halflings and "squealing like a pig," in which case I am STRONGLY against it!
EDIT: Or even "squealing like a ManPig." ;)
I agree. I am a member of F.R.O.G.S. (Free Ratman Opposing Golden pighaterS)
Oh, and by the way, nice new avatar!
