I wrangled him on to MSN sometime ago, and it did all sorts of nasty to his system. We both chat on ICW now, although I have n idea what my 'nickname' is on it. :D
No, but weve been swamed ATM. Her especially with getting Miami Vice and CapeTown going again, plus our RL concerns. I'll ask her. |

Your nickname's Ben. ;) Yeah, MSN slowed down my system very much, it was no fun to run it. ICQ on the other hand is sleak and nice. :D
If she's in too many games, we can bring Fortune in. |

That's actually the result of our discussion today. Fortune wants to play a Warrior named Ug. Have fun! :D |

Ug is merely his nickname ... his full name is Ugfin Darnal. :P :D

What race?
I just wish to know, but having a warrior is a happy thing, something for the rest of us to hide behind ;) |

I'm already branching out in a big way by stooping to playing a human. ;) |

Well elves are almost as good as Drop Bears...
So far I think every DS character I've had has been an elf. Nice to have you on board. |

Okay, so I started thumbing through my Glorious Books O Earthdawn and have a few preliminary ideas for characters.
Fist3.0 please let me know if any of these do not fit into your campaign or if one in particular fits quite well. Troll Shaman Elven Horror Stalker Human Journeyman Dwarven (or Troll) Elementalist I do also like the idea of a Beastmaster but it looks like there is already one, unless that is for the other game. What say ye? |

Why can't I download the Disciplines thingie? :(
And why doesn't the damn character generator match up with what the books say? :( And why can't I find anything that actually describes Knacks? :? I'm still confused! |

laiced - These would be the best two:
Human Journeyman Dwarven (or Troll) Elementalist Fortune : Why can't I download the Disciplines thingie? -I can't either. :( I just read it on line. It is a free pdf from ED.com, so you can at least open it as many times as you like. And why doesn't the damn character generator match up with what the books says? - Mine doesn't. But Pencil and paper listen to me a lot better. And why can't I find anything that actually describes Knacks? - Knacks are neat little variations of talents. Unarmed combat can also be expanded to include throws and headbutss with the right Warrior knacks. Just get the required Talent Rank, have the right discipline for the knack, and pay the karma. It's that easy. I'm still confused - If it all made sense immediately, none of us would be here! |

For MY game, we currently have confirmed :
laiced - char type unknown Doc Funk - Char type unknown , leaning towards nethermancer or swordmaster Plan B - windling nethermancer possibly: Fortune - unless he's staying just in one game. In which case, join Grinder's 'cause he was here first and stealing players is just rude. Nerfherder- if he ends up having time to post, has a troll beastmaster already We've got thre at this point, so the game will go on as soon as we have those characters in. |

Doesn't matter to me which game I'm in. I know that Kagetenshi would still like to play as well ... time permitting.
As for the Disciplines thingie ... it won't open online either. I blame Grinder though, 'cause I saw him on the site, probably sabotaging things. ;) |

Are you referring to the Discipline Design PDF that was referenced earlier? I didn't have any trouble downloading it. If you like, you can PM your email address(es) and I'll send you a copy that way. Assuming your email can handle a 6-meg file. If not, we can do it some other way.
And as a side note, if I do end up playing a nethermancer in Fistandantilus' game, I'm totally going to kick him in his railroading ass. <angry fist of doom and despair> |

Thanks Doc. I think you inadvertently gave it to me via Fisty anyway. :)

Fist3.0,
Okay, so I think I am leaning a bit more to the Elementalist but now I have started considering the Purifier. Could you give me a bit of an idea about how your campaign is going to be set up and what the overall feel for it will be. My initial feeling is to play a character that is a wanderer (umm, lame, I know); someone who sets out across Barsaive and knows the low and high roads quite well. A survivalist who is weathered and a bit rough around the edges. Perhaps s/he has been a guide for a while or perhaps s/he has just be fortunate enough to travel frequently with his/her family and explore the continent. Any thoughts/ideas? |

Actually, a Purifier would be Perfect. I'd considered asking for one, but didn't want to pigeon hole anyone. Youll be starting with lots of out doors and traveling. So go with that idea, looks perfect.

Okay, now for the creation part of the character; how do you want that done? Are we starting at first circle or are we going ot be starting higher?

It just keeps going up. :P ;) Oh, and I forgot to do the 'free 7th roll thingie', but I'm thinking it might be a tad superfluous. :D |
