Great, I'm a Dragon... Group: Retired Admins Posts: 6,699 Joined: 8-October 03 From: North Germany Member No.: 5,698	I think we need a OOC-thread for this one too. Ralos complete description: Description of Ralo Being slender even for a windling, Ralo stands 19 inches high and weights around 10 pounds. His skin is currently of a bright light blue, while his long and wild hair has a deep yellow color. Ralo sports several tattoos: a tiny sun around his right eye, a pattern of interweaving circles on this left lower arm and a stylized heart on his right upper arm. All tattoos are clearly the work of a windling, other name-givers won't be able to tattoo such fine lines and many details. Ralo wears a light white shirt and light red pants, in which whirling blue patterns are woven. Both shirt and pants are made of linen. His wings shimmer silver with a hint of gold, like threads, in it.

He spent his child- and youthhood in his home village, with occassional travels to the small towns surrounding Urupa and once to the „Pearl of the Aras Coast“ itself. He was impressed how huge the city was, how many name-givers made a living there and how nearly endless the ocean appeared. That day, he decided to go out into the world and to see the wonders of Barsaive (and Thera, maybe too) with his own eyes. Around that time it became clear that magic awaken in him, giving him the chance to become an adept. The village elders decided that he should train as a Windmaster (they didn’t know about his plans) and he gladly accepted. After his training was completed and he became a Novice in this discipline, he gathered his family and closest friends and informed them about his plans. To his surprise, most of them understood his desire and wished him the Passion’s blessing on his journey, that he might return home one day and share the wonders he’ve seen. Obviously, the best place to meet other adepts and adventurers was Urupa – Ralogatol made teh trip to the impressive city for the second time of his life and looked out for trustworthy name-givers. To make a long story short: he found a handful. Together with an ork couple and a dwarven archer did travel across Barsaive for two years, during which he fought Theran slavers, found two broken Kaers, won a race at the Serpent River and became member of a riverboat crew after that. When the orks decided to join the new nation of Cara Fahd and the dwarf returned to Throal „to life a calmer life and work for the Great Library of Throal“, Ralogatol traveled back to his home. He told them of his time as an adventurer and decided to learn more about Barsaive and the Horrors before he again head out into the world. Months passed, in which Ralogatol studied, but he felt the call of adventure, felt the energy rising in him. One day, he packed his gear and left the village again. This time he ignored Urupa, instead he traveled to Axalalail and set up shop there. He has worked as a (freelance) member of a riverboat crew of House V’strimon for nearly a year, travelling around the southern and eastern part of the Serpent River then. When he met a group of human adventurers who were on the way to Parlainth he decided to join them and see what wonders, dangers and legends might wait in the old theran city. He and his new comrades made a few successful trips into the city, but didn’t stroke rich and disbanded over that, frustrated about their lack of success. So Ralogatol is again on the look for new companions to travel across Barsaive even more.

I'm trying to fit in every rule I can explain so that you learn as you go, such as attack maneuvers like "aggressive attack", knock down, etc. Remember that I did put all those in the OOC (Bttf 1)for your use.

Uncle Fisty Group: Admin Posts: 13,891 Joined: 3-January 05 From: Next To Her Member No.: 6,928	yeah, right now it's a little tough with just plinking away. For future reference, if I don't mention that you see a big smith type battling undead, there probably isn't one around you. That's why I was specifying who I was posting for. As for flamearrow, well, you're the one that wanted to be a windling archer. ;)

I am refering to that information often. However, the system is still new, so I am making mistakes/learning as I go.

Dumpshock Widow aka Mrs Fisty Group: Members Posts: 2,443 Joined: 3-January 05 From: Next to Him Member No.: 6,929	Oh, and just for complete-ness sake, here's a description of Morgana. Morgana appears young, even for an elf. She appears to be in her late teens, possibly her early twenties. She's tall, around 6'2, with long dark hair. Her hair is black, the kind of black that looks blue under the right lighting. She has deep blue eyes, but a closer look reveals silver flecks. Her skin is tanned and un-marred. She is no blood elf. She speaks with a strange accent that's hard to place. It sounds like it could be Indrisian, but native Indrisian's would know differently. Her back displays a strange silver tattoo of a large Western dragon. The tattoo is a duplicate of the image Morgana wears on an amulet around her neck. She always carries a strange stringed instrument that she calls a violin. It sounds like the lute, but has a deeper tone. She doesn't speak of her past, preferring as most troubadours do, to speak of the past of others. She has an uncanny knack for picking the right road, speaking to the right person, or knowing when to not travel. She calls it her womanly intuition, but others think it might be more.

Runner Group: Members Posts: 3,382 Joined: 22-February 06 From: Shadowland Member No.: 8,297	Alexander is a human male of standard height, about 5' 9" tall (1.75 meters). His weight is hard to gauage as his frame is thin but he is covered in muscles that were developed from hard work. He is light skinned and has red hair and some freckles. His green eyes peer out from his moppish hair and show an intellect that few from the cities would believe possible from a "lowly" villager. He is unusual when compared to most villagers in that he has all of his teeth. Though no longer white, they are straight and give him a handsome smile. He often stands with his hand behind his back in the posture of receiving instruction. His eyes; however, never stay still and are always searching his surroundings. He wears a pendant made from emerald and a silver chain. Those who stare or let their gaze linger on it will see Alexander place it inside his tunic and cross his arms over his chest. Under normal conditions Alexander is smiling.
