I think we need to figure out which kingdom positions are open and let the applicants know. For instance if someone makes a cleric, they might expect to step into the high priest position. Only to find it filled. Of course Kertuffle had more people than slots, he may have intended for people to contend for the spots somehow. Popularity or whatever.

New characters should not necessarily expect to have kingdom slots for awhile anyway. So it would be fine, I think, if they don't off the bat.

I can comment to that effect in the recruitment thread.

Yeah, that has occurred to me too. Off the bat, I *think* we lack a warden, magister, spymaster and *hmm* one more - enforcer ?

Skaven - the pestilence and poison related race from Warhammer that Ikit Klaw is inspired off. They are sneaky backstabbing cowardly evil underground man rats with a tendency for alchemical weapons and other nice toys. Often their devices has a tendency to not work 100% correctly :P. (Note: Ikit Claw is a chief engineer belonging to clan Skryre and quite the badass rat.)

For the interested : )

Another quite cool rat guy: Snikch, Clan Eshin master assassin. To show that some of them still value the ancient art of stabbing people with swords!

Completely forgot which alias I put here, guess that comes with the using a little used one. I will have initial impressions and concerns up tonight. I swear I mean it this time.

@wealth by level - We actually had an (optional) reset to WBL at level 6, so we aren't that far off : )

Two cents, I'm really liking the Goruum that has been placed in for consideration. As to the rest, the only other one I am liking so far is Natalie. She would have made a good match for the old grumpy Felix.

Will update as other info comes up. Votes can be changed at any time. Feel free to discuss. I'll keep my comments to myself. :)

I'm going to take 2 or 3 (leaning toward 3) as I've found that if I take 4 people, I usually lose 1 or 2 within a month. Rather not turn aroudn and do this again in a month or two. So I'd rather take an extra person or two to start with the idea attrition will set in.

I like the skaven *ahm* ratfolk merely for the feel he is trying to invoke*. However, I'd wait and see before I pass judgement since I don't think he has written up a personality yet!

*The crazy inventor/alchemist vibe of the skaven race would be kindof fun, the homicidal backstabbing daemon-worshiping angle less so :P

This is Rowan. So far I like Natalie and Goruum's submissions and debating between Ikit and Vash as the third... add both for two groups of five? \=)

I think Ikrit sort of combined the personality and the background. If I read it correctly, he's going for the 'Actually helpful ratfolk, slightly off center researcher/inventor' as a personality.

However, if you're looking for more information, the by all means yell at them in the thread for more information o personality. :)

If you want, as a group, to bring it up to two teams of 5, I can do that. Need to know though.

Yeah, I just took a quick look at his latest sheet before commenting. I'll keep my vote on him : )

Edit: Two teams of five seems nice. Five isn't too many - and if two drops, we are still enough for two teams. And we would be ten in total - perfect for the number of seats in the ruling council.

@mdt/drawbacks - I noticed some of the applicants have utilized the 'drawback' system for traits. Would it be okay for us already in game to also utilize it ?

I have no objection to it. As long as the drawback and trait make sense for your character to have picked up in the game. :)

We're coming up on the deadline (tomorrow), so I'd like to get started seriously looking at these people. It sounds like you'd like me to recruit us up to 10 players and do two tables of four each. I can do that. So, if that's what we want, I want to do the following :

Each player submit their four preferred characters (and you can change them any time you want, so I'd rather get early feedback just in case life interrupts your posting ability). I'd like to make choices by Saturday night if possible.

What I'm going to request is list them in order of preference. For example :

1st : John Adams
2nd : George Washington
3rd : Thomas Jefferson
4th : Alexander Hamilton

Then, I will assign your first choice 4 pts, your second choice 3 pts, third choice 2 pts, and 4th choice 1 pt.

Saturday night I'll take the three highest characters. The fourth slot I'm reserving for a 'GM Choice', as I have some ideas for some of the submissions that could be interesting down the road. Plus, as the GM, I'd like to run for characters I like too. :) I figure giving you guys 3 choices and me 1 is pretty fair. :)

[furious indignation]What? A GM that wants to have fun?! I have never![/furious indignation]

No, but seriously, that sounds more then fair : )

I shall start looking at the applicants right away!

Edit: I have three I like, unsure whom will be the fourth. I'll have to take a look tomorrow again to see if anything new surfaces of course!

Will you be wanting us to PM you the list or shall we just post it here?

Spoiler it here. That way, people who want to know can know, and those that don't want to let other's selections influence them can not read the spoilers.

For all you League of Legends fans out there, I must enlighten you that Fury of the Tempests character currently speaks Dra(w)ven.

It made me giggle a little...

I should be free to give the completed ones a look-over this weekend.

The weather has been perfect, I really 'need' to get my motorcycle out for a ride, so we'll see. Should have time to do both, with any luck. :)
