Elves is good! smile.gif
Grinder
Yep. smile.gif

Orks rock too, but this character is planned to have wtinessed the rise of bioware in mid-2055 or so and that's hard to do with an ork when the game is set 15 years later.

Not if he Goblinized instead of actually being born an orc. Goblinized Orcs retain their original human life expectancy. wink.gif

But Elves are better! biggrin.gif
Grinder
Didn't think of that, but I'll stick with the elf anyway.

Guess you're playing an elf too? If yes, we can build our own elven kingdom. With Blackjack and hookers! biggrin.gif
Fortune
We don't need to build one ... there's one with the hard work already done just ripe for the picking located just a few miles south of Seattle. wink.gif biggrin.gif

It's good to see someone playing an older character. My character, Alistair was born all the way back in '39.
Grinder
The fairy kingdom south of Seattle is so fucked up, it's not worth picking up. Besides, it's not really the weather I want for our elven kingdom. wink.gif

Lemme think, my characters needs to be a little older. Born in '30 or so, so he was in his mid-20 when bioware made the big jump. Yeah, that's cool.
Digital Heroin
Immortal still sounds like my bet. He´s not exactly a Sammie, but it´s the closest classification. He´s going to be a moderately cybered combat specialist, bent towards dealing out the pain. Background´s got him elven, a former member of the Tir forces, actually a candidate for the Ghosts before his family got offed by a Toxic shaman. Ever since then it´s been the long road to vengence.
Fortune
More Elves! biggrin.gif

Even all of my character's Contacts are Elves. wink.gif
Digital Heroin
biggrin.gif Elf-centric groups for the win!
Gremish
Ok since im only gonan be running 1 game now i think i will try and step back into this, ill have a character within the next few hours sent =)

If im to late just tell me =P
Fortune
Yayyy! smile.gif

Note the predominance of pointy ears and fruit salad when considering your concept. wink.gif biggrin.gif
Gremish
Noted. i think ima make a Elf Super-Thief =)
Fortune
Cool! smile.gif

Seriously though, don't let us sway you in any direction (if that was indeed the case). You should make the character you yourself want to play.

Having said that ... Elves is good! biggrin.gif
Gremish
lol, nah i made this kind of character before and i really enjoy it, was planning on making it again for one of the campaigns, if this one fits with moe elves then sweet!
Digital Heroin
I have a distinct feeling that Immortal´s going to be the least social of this group... which is going to be amusing. An often drunk, cigar smoking, foul mouthed elf who doesn´t shy from scratching himself in public is such a fun thing to play.ç

At another cafe, away from my books... need to sit down and make about ten characters tonight... biggrin.gif
Fortune

One would do! wink.gif
Digital Heroin
Aye, one would do for this, but I´ve got my eyes on at least one other game I should be able to keep up with... just have no clue what else to make...

I'll play an elf too, a heavily cybered (only very minor bioware) ex- Foreign Legion french guy, who's more or less in "exile" now in america. Seems he and Immortal will share the same bad habits. biggrin.gif
emo samurai
Dude, first I have 2-3 groups that want to all play humans, now I have an all-elf group. WTF?
Digital Heroin
A comrade in arms for Immortal, tres cool.

As for the all elf thing, I can only speak for myself in that it just didn´t seem the right time to bring in another Troll Adept.
Grinder
Complaining, that's all a gamemaster can! biggrin.gif

My french elf (guess being french is more important then being an elf) is called Jean-Pierre, or in short for those [insert french swear-words here] JP.

Notably my French spelling is horrible... which is understandable given I don´t speak French... biggrin.gif Used to be when I was in St. Jean Quebec for basic we´d all just mutter or yell `Iced Tea Tablesnack` and it was understood we were pissed off...
Grinder
I don't speak french either, despite having it at school for like 5 years. wink.gif I'll look for some french curses/ swears, but that's all. At least I have an excuse for wrong grammar while IC. biggrin.gif

Is there a Frenchman in existence whose name isn't Jean-Pierre?

I submit that there is not!
Digital Heroin
If there is I have yet to meet one. I mean with their thirty something middle names, the Jean-Pierre name is inevitably there. biggrin.gif

Blasphemy of the worst kind! eek.gif

Eh, I can see his point. The French brought us french fries, french dressing, french kissing, french maids, french toast, and swearing. What did elves ever do, besides making cookies and Christmas presents?
Digital Heroin
I submit that elven women look far, far better in tank tops....

Taught all those things to the French in the first place. wink.gif

C'mon, the french culture (if you can call it so) is much older then elven culture and of bigger importance for JP.
Btw, the french also brought us compulsory military service and oral sex. biggrin.gif

Maybe that's the reason for chosing this alias? wink.gif

Is it sad that Immortal's weapon list already takes near half a written page and I haven't got to the section of the gear list with his specialty yet?

Well, you're just not allowed to play then! nyahnyah.gif wink.gif

Um ... no.

Then again, my gear list is about that long, and it doesn't include any weapons. biggrin.gif

So, emo ... do you want us all to actually post the character sheets here, or would you rather get them via PM again?
Digital Heroin
Immortal's shaping up to be a cybered version of the Punisher, complete with battle-van and drekhole apartment.

Manportable MMGs and cyberarm gyromounts for the win, bigtime...


And Raiko, it's ok, every group needs a Token...
Fortune
I thought that said 'every group needs a Tolkien' at first glance. biggrin.gif
Digital Heroin
grinbig.gif Yu know, oddly that would work too...
Grinder
Hey emo, is there a deadline for submitting characters?
Digital Heroin
I hope not... Immortal's gear list is still amassing... he might need a second van...
Grinder
I don't even started JPs gear list. Maybe we can pool our ressources and purchase a safe house together? That would give us enough space to store all the gear.
Digital Heroin
Could definitly be something to strive for.
Grinder
In the French Quarter, naturally. biggrin.gif
Fortune
You guys are slooooo-oooooo-ooooow!
Digital Heroin
Hey, I've got to buy ammo/accessories for twenty or so guns, I'm bound to be slow... that and I've been drunk all weekend, so, yeah...
