Sorry about the delay. Works been crazy this week. I'll post the whole background (I love doing this part) tomorrow morning.But in brief...
(Since we can use the Pathfinder Deities I'm changing my god in my profile, but I'll do that tomorrow as well. The two Domains will probably be animal, and water.)
Yar was the youngest of 4 brothers. His father owned a fleet of trading ships that specializes in moving / trading exotic animals. Yar had a great love for animals, but since his father only had three ships, he was not destined to inherit a boat, so he trained to handle the onshore dealings with various traders and merchants. He had quite a knack for getting the best deal our of the merchants. He also dealt with the health, and inspection of the incoming and outgoing animals, and became close friends with a Cleric of Gozreh, whom helped heal the animals when they were injured or sick. He had a little sister whom helped with the dealings, and found she was better with dealing with the merchants, and he enjoyed working with the animals.
His father realized that that's where Yar's heart lay, and sponsored him to become a cleric of Gozreh. He made sure however that he had everything he needed, including nice equipment, and supplies. He has completed his entry training in the worship of Gozreh, and is assisting around the warehouse, but has a strong yearning to see the world.

Character background / History to follow
OK the first post for the game is up. You can find it here: The Elucidating Sojourn.
Here are some guidelines for the PBP:
- Have fun and be creative, I am more intersested in story than anything else.
- I will post two times each week, probably on Wednesday and either Saturday or Sunday.
- Please only make one Action post (what you could do in a turn or a round) with each of my DM posts.
- Feel free to make multiple "free action" posts.
- To keep things fair please use Invisible Castle for all dice rolls.
- Please don't read spoiler tags unless they are labled for your character
- Try to keep OOC chat in our discussion thread
- Finally, have fun and be creative!
MD, I might not be able to post in the next couple of days. I'm coming down with the flu. Please do not hesitate to NPC Stilgar. Thanks for your patience.
NP,hope you feel better soon.
Sorry about the delay in posting this first weekend. I had hoped to get one up sunday but was downtown at the Taste of Cincinnati from 8:30 am to 1:30 pm working a foodstand for my resturant job. Those extra hours on top of my regualularly long hours wiped me out. The new post is up and I will post agian next Sunday unless I see a post from all the players by Friday night. If that happens I will try to get an extra post in to help keep things moving. Thanks all.
