Earthdawn??? Ooooh... can I play?

Why not? So far we have the Fisty o' Doom, Ophis and Metatron confirmed, while Kage is pending (and can still join later). So post your idea what you wanna play and we'll see if it fits.

My sheet flits it's merry electronic way towards grinder's in box...

A quick over view of Seraph

Personality notes:- Her relationship with the rest of the group is friendly but inconsistent. On the surface she is a little odd (well mostly crazy) hyperactive and almost melodramatically emotional. However hasn't told any of them about her parentage and is usually to some degree faking her moods. She is deeply scared of letting anyone get close to the real her, but she has a deep need for affection and is very sensual and touchy-feely this can lead to a odd swings between flirtiness and being disinterested in someone. One moment she will be all over someone the next she will be seemingly lost in a dreamworld. Some of this is of course for real due to the encroaching insanity that tends to flow along with Illusionism... Her recent foray into swordmastery is helping stablise her some. She passes her time by pretending to be Darius' assistant on stage and doing half his tricks for him.

Description:- Six foot female elf, very pretty eyes one is deep green the other bright blue, very long pale blue hair and pearly skin. She dressy in skimpy clothing and decorates her self with many ribbons, twined through her hair and dangling of her clothes, in combat she tends to appear like brightly coloured tornado in a dressmaker's shop. She wears bright make up that accents her features. Her facial expressions rarely seem sad, afraid or angry, usually either happy, flirty or dreamily distant. Often all three in a very short space of time.

History:- Vague at best, often with a number of distinct contradictions between tellings. It appears that Seraph is using her birthname rather than a chosen one, unusual for an elf her apparent age. She the party a while ago, joining them in Kratas. She know her way around the city but doesn't seem to be local. She has several friends in the 'entertainment' industry. She feeds all the local stray cats. And several street urchins. She is a definite stirrer in peoples love lives.

I'll happily accommodate any particular dynamics with other characters.

Yep, got the sheet. Looks fine, even though Seraph is short on skills.
The background is fine, too.


What I learned from Fisty: 200 LP to you for submitting your sheet and background story first.

Never played much with skills in ED, unless I should have more starting ranks, I presumed ED1 starting numbers and didn't put down languages. I'll porbably pick up a point of etiquette with those.

Oh, my fault: you get CHA step skill points for free plus (iirc it's a houserule) your Artisan Skill and your Speak Language Skill on rank 1 for free.

I take it speak language 1 allows me to speak elven and throalic, right?

Based on that updated sheet winging its way to you.

Hey Grinder...

Would you let me play a Nethermancer Windling?

I wish I knew more about the actual game system.

Learn On The Job. I'm running a game that Alex is playing in, ED based, and he'd never played at all. Same with Callidus. I'ts like the pool. The water may be cold, but you'll acclimate quicker if you just dive in. I wouldn't mind helping out or coaching you at all.

Well, an Ug the Warrior type might be cool.

Ah, that would be Ug the Troll. Wandering warrior from from his tribe and moot, finding his way in the wide world, and dealing with beings that have little understanding of Kator, the proper sense of honor. Luckily, he has no patience for them either, so things work out well.

No, the other Ug! You know, the human.

Oh, right. I forgot who I was talking to.

Well Grinder, are we at limit? Can we pop in Fortune as well?

Good. I was beginning to doubt on my memory seriously.

I'll sit down with my books and work out the char sheet.

Can't believe you negated the windling nethermancer though! This is the same windling nethermancer that used bone dance to make a couple of dead crwos dance through a fire and around a camp site! This is an actual existing character! Awesome, wicked little thing of hers!

Time for a change.

Was worth a shot.

Well, I'm out of ideas then. All the really good disciplines are already taken. Can I play a Pale One t'skrang Nethermancer?

Did you check the ADM for the racial-specific disciplines? Maybe one of those is worth a try? *cough* Outcast Warrior *cough*

Grinder I'll get spells and gar sorted and to you shortly.

Ok.

OKAY!!!!
I have been struggling to get my new account activated here and have been drooling to express my immense interest in an Earthdawn game!!!
Is there still room available? and if so, what set of rules are you using (please say the originals, as I have just about every one!)?

I have been PbPing for several years now and have been roleplaying for most of my life.

Welcome to DS!

Well, so far it's Fisty o' Doom, Ophis and Metatron, while Kage is likely to join later.
Plan B is thinking what she's gonna play and Fortune has already been rejected. So this game is full, but you may convince Fisty to run a second one.

Well, please PM me if you decide to open up another slot or if someone does not fully commit or drops out.

-Drew

p.s. I am persistent because we are talking about the best RPG I have ever played.

*bows*

So what? One game more doesn't make a difference then. And you would make two people happy.

WooHoo!
I have an idea!

Will work on the sheet over the weekend, and get it to you asap.

BttF2 has reached a point where new characters can be added relativly easily.

Gear and Spells done and sent.

Received. Thanks a lot.
Nice list on spell, would have picked nearly the same.

Dirty Immortal elf.

Stop looking for my other half's beasts.

Grinder- Metatron's Character on it's way to you.

laiced, Fortune, here's the scan. I've lost contact with a player on my Back to teh Future ED game. For the short explanation, it's basically a whole mess of horrors and undead coming the PC's way. So if your'e up for a messy, messy game, with windlings , come on over.

Also , damn you Grinder, I have an idea for an entirely seperate ED game I'm thinking of running.

These games really make me wish I was more familiar with Earthdawn. The only real exposure I've had is the main sourcebook that I won in some roleplaying competition years and years and years ago. Never could find anyone to play it with, however, so it pretty much just rotted away on my bookshelf.

That aside, you guys have really piqued my interest. I may have to see if I can find that book again.

(Not trying to derail or anything. I've been monitoring these threads for a while and just thought I'd speak up suddenly. Sorry for the intrusion. Oh, and for the record, even back then I always thought a Windling Nethermancer would be totally bad-ass image wise. Decked out in a burial shawl and with slightly tethered black wings? Awesome personified.)
