Great!  What kind of opening do you have in mind?

Think I'm all about done with my character sheet and I've updated my character description. Think I'm about ready to go!

I'll get the game thread up shortly. I'll leave things wide open for you at first. Once everyone has posted, I'll start throwing some things your way. There's no need for you to try to bring everyone together; I'll take care of that. And your characters can be from Rendrick or just visiting for the festival.

Let me know if you have any questions.

I've deducted some copper for sweets & treats. How much for a colourful, festival-bought hairpin GM?

Why not buy a magnificent flower garland?  Perfect for the festival and hand-woven by a druid's best handiwork!

Thanks, but no. I've already got half a forest on my noggin; can't say I need to be lugging around the other half as well!

Far be it for me to foist a forest where it isn't fancied!

Better to be having half a forest on your noggin then to look like a tree from the forest!

@GM: I assume from your introduction of him, that anyone that's been at the festival for a decent amount of time would recognise Lord Jonas by name and sight from e.g. addresses/speeches he's given, competitions he's judged or the like?

@Theirastra: I take it you and Gerard know each other? Or is you wrapping an arm around him a blatant breach of personal space due to unfamiliar customs, etc.?

Adeline, I would have addressed you in my last post as well but it seemed to me you approached alone as well so I didn't want to assume you were there with the other three.

Yes, Adeline, that's correct. Even if someone couldn't remember his name, s/he would recognize Lord Jonas as an important local figure and an organizer of the festival.

The latter. She has a small personality quirk regarding personal space, as you can see. And uh...it'll get worse under certain circumstances. :)

I need an adult!

LOL! What? No green skinned elves for you? She can become a red skinned one if you'd rather? More whitish?

To tell the truth, Gerard the druid is probably far more accepting of a green-skinned semi-fey elf invading his personal space than most people.

The evening got away from me. I'll post tomorrow.

@ Qamar Silesa: Could you give us a physical description of what Qamar looks like? I know you're a Sorcerer (or you were during the Character Creation process earlier), but from your profile picture you could be anything from an Elf to a Gith! Cheers.

I honestly thought you were human at first Adeline.  Then I read your description.  Yeah...not quite human.

Speaking of which, am I the only human here?  Once I get level 2 I should just spend all my time shapeshifted.

In reply to Gerard Frontalier (msg # 39):

Got any guesses? ;) (there's a clue in my spell list)

I don't think I can see your spell list, but my knowledge of Celtic lore tells me to call you a Selkie.  Don't know if they're in the game though, or called something else.

Oh, you mean the spell list you posted up a bit here in OOC don't you?

That's an astute guess! You're partially right and I'm basing my spell choices off of that theme, to a degree. I'm playing Adeline as a Water Genasi with Selkie heritage (not that her parentage really means anything in game-terms, per se).

Haha, at least Malcolm is half-human if that counts for anything? I'd love to see Gerard spend his days as some sort of shape shifted gardening rabbit or some such.

So I've been wracking my mind trying to work out why "the" and "wanderer" are recognised words in the Language groups (anyone that can't speak Sylvan will notice that those words are unscrambled in my last post)...

...then I just figured it out. It's all Malcom the Oaken Wanderers fault! Character names are always "recognised" by the language filters and left unscrambled, even in part.

I know it's a small thing, but "the" is quite a common word to be recognised by all languages (not just Sylvan!). Any chance of changing your handle to something without common language in it Malcom?

She just wants to be able to talk about you behind your back.
