Soapbox

I post now from the glorious altar of my new computational device, ramshackle in its construction but devious in its operation. Bow before your new media overlord and master, for I am but a god among ants.

Seriously though. Next week is my responsibility, so expect some spiffy scenarios. I guarantee you'll go a whoopin' and a whompin' on a certain... luminous creature.

In the meantime, I'd like you all to familiarize yourself with your characters again, and try to expand upon your character's foundation. That is, what material plane are they from? What region(s) of that plane? what did they do before mysteriously washing alongside Flotsam's walks? Etc.
I'd also like you guys to put in a comment that displays what you'd like to do at least once in game. An action scene you'd like to emulate, a story you'd enjoy seeing parodied (in a comedic or serious fashion), or something along the "scenario I've always wanted to do" line.

Till next week, toodles.

For me perhaps a run in with some one or something from our original realm. But mainly, just in game charater building. Something that will get our budded ideas if our charcters to really flower. Maybe you could give us recent info about our own plane which we came from, or perhaps something from our pasts rears its ugly head. I don't really know right now. Cause my character is up in the air. I'm not sure how I should p-lay him as a ronin. Or in that matter why he is one at this time. I'l think on it and get back to you.

Yeah, I suck.

As far as the home plane goes, it's a medieval sort of place, yet with magic. Hm. Sort of like A Song of Ice and Fire if there's a good setting analog for it.

As you might imagine, I was in showbiz, entertaining in all the prominent courts (and maybe occasionally a bit of bodyguard/hitman work). As a result I grew a bit of an ego as well as a careless sort of attitude. In Flotsam, however, a style like that might not cut it and I'll have to realize that I'm not in Kansas anymore.

Stuff I'd like to see/do? Might be nifty to meet a dragon. You'd think a realm connecting all the planes might be primo real estate to their kind.

That's what I've got in my head at the moment.

Well i know what i want to do if it at all fits in, a heroic death. One that makes sense not just one out of nowhere that'd be boss. I'm still struggling with my character which is a good thing. But some ideas would be cool, if you guys don't mind. Right now me and Cody have an idea but we need to see if it's cool with Josh or if cody still wants to do it. Oh before I forget both me and cody have off on Wednesday. Outie.

Spiffy. Wednesday it is then. Shall we say, early afternoon to late evening? You guys went through a lot of stuff pretty quickly last time, and I'd like to keep that pace.

I'd say 3-4ish until about 8-9ish. That cool?

I see no problem with that I'll tell Cody. Anything special we need to know about?

Just make sure Cody's got his character done. Have him put up a comment regarding what he's chosen to be. Or tell him to message me. Whichever.

3:30 it is. Be here, and be square.

You'll still be square if you stay away, but you'll be square by yourself.

Cody's a samurai. Message him to find out more. Outie
