Viktor need your non-epic character sheet completed.

I've distributed Bound Items in Private Messages ... please know I tried to pick something that both complimented your non-epic self and was comparable to the other Bound Items.

I'd prefer if you didn't share the specifics of your bound item (keeping them as OOC knowledge) for now.  I think it will be more interesting, for all players, to experience them in the game instead.

I do hope you like what was chosen.

You'll have it today.

So do any of us know each other? I've updated my description a little with a hook that could link me to some of the more disreputable types.

1. You are all aware of each other as inhabitants of a moderately sized village that gets a several travelers passing through as it is on a minor trade route which forks from the major route a few days to the east.

2. You are all aware of each other's items when you see them.  They will be obvious to each of you and will help connect the group back together.

more to come...

All good to go.

Ergobast is a strong caster, but has a bunch of skills and a tiny bit of ranged combat for now (the ranged combat will get less impressive quickly as we advance).

I need to finalize skills and finish description.  You guy seem mostly set, so I wanted to try to fill in some gaps on skills if we need it.  Currently Ergobast is hidey/multi-lingual talkey (with some side stuff thrown in like baking).  If we've got the talking double (or more) covered, and/or we've got no one rolling the search/open lock/disable device, I can switch to be more in that direction instead.

I'm quite a good talker especially for second level. We have a rogue who is good at locks and traps, and I'm 'poor' but not rubbish at them as a secondary support. I'd do multilingual too but my experience is that if the people don't talk common they talk something that you can't no matter how many languages you know... Which is fair enough: in the real world if you know the top ten languages you can only talk to about 40% of the human population of this planet.

Pick things that feel good to you, and fit in with you backstory. Versatility is good

I'm the one with decent skill with locks/traps/searching that will get better as we go along Ergobast.  My ranged capabilities are...sufficient and I'll likely spread my feats between making sure I'm a capable sort in both arenas.

Also Amaderial since you brought it up...

Viktor, being a Bugbear, is disreputable simply by race as far as many are concerned and that's before we get into his skill set.

@Bugbear
Gosh yes. That's a brave race choice. Got to admit apart from them being 'slightly harder orcs' in some very old D&D modules I don't really know much about them

Just wanted to tell you that I'm away on a short vacation. I'll be back on Nov. 2nd.

I figured what better way than to have a well respected do gooder tossed into what most people in the Realms see as evil simply by what they are.  As to the tougher orc comment...kinda though they are part of the goblinoid tree.  Goblin, Blues (psionic goblins), Hobgoblin and Bugbear with the Bugbears on top of course.

I like to think of Orcs as brute strength evil and Bugbears as intelligent brute strength evil normally.  Hence why Viktor is so odd.

Pretty nasty curse. I've got a sort of reason why I'm in the form I'm in too, but I'll wait until we get to IC for that


@Mr GM
Do we have an eta for when we are starting?

Well the GM's list of who is being considered vs who is in gives us a very generalized look at at lest the classes of the prior character.  Hard to miss the Bugbear note across from the former Epic Paladin and all.

But we'll also note it by our special bound object too that I was waiting for the game to start to add to my own character description.  Needless to say I wasn't expecting that to be what I got but it'll definitely help.

I'm back !

It's been quite a while since we had a few characters ready to play.

Do we have an ETA for when we get going?

Still idle.

I've got a player on vacation should hear back next week.

That's probably OK. I'm critically lacking time myself at the moment.

Hoping everyone is having a good holiday season!  *hugs all around*

Wow I had forgotten all about this game.

It would be cool if something happened!

Anyway: Merry Christmas everyone

Indeed happy holidays to all...

Merry Christmas, all.   [understatement] I would also not be sad to see this game happen. [/understatement]

So....

*waves*  Still here, just waiting mostly patiently.  :)
