[RoSs_bg2_rox]

Name:
Gender:Karthias
Age:Male
Race:Human
Occupationart time Thief, part time Body Guard (for whoever needs him)


Appearance
Weight: 12 stone (dont anyone care to convert to pounds?)
Height:6'2
Eyes:Blue
Hair:shoulder height, a little curly, fair

Clothes: Reasonably smart, padded shirt, and proper high quality thieving trousers.
Strengths: Very strong and quite nimble, good thieving abilities and knows how to fight with a range of weapons.
Weaknesses: Not the best at talking, could think more sometimes before commiting himself to things, likes to rush into things.
Weapons: a nice long sword which he *acquired* one day while out on his job and two small daggers, with pommel jewels in them which he was rewarded after he guarded some one who was on a special job.
Belongings: A fair amount of gold, his above weapons and clothing and a necklace that he stole of a nobleman which boosts his poor charisma (well tries to!)
Familiars: A small sleek brown cat which followed him around until he just took it with him, it seems to be aware when danger is near, and lets him know by scratching his shoes.

History: Karthias was born and brought up by his father. His mother he never knew. At the age of 10 he left his fathers company, he had had enough of the constant lecturings and occasional beatings and decided to make a go of the world for himself. He met a band of adventurers with whom he tagged along with for a number of years until they were ambushed one night with only him and one other surviving. They decided they should join a thieves guild, which would offer them some sort of security. They worked there for 5 years but then Karthias left to set out on his own. And here he is now.

Hey RoSs_bg2_rox ...care to put your char. in my employment then? We can make a bio of me hiring you for the job of coming with me, and it would suit your character well. You would get my share of the treasure that we found, as I am not in need of it, plus I pay your way to get me there safely. What do you think? What does the Game master think?

[Calsiumus]

I think it sounds like a good idea. I have a friend that wants to join he jsut has to get approved by an admin then we can start I think and if others want to joing they can come in later.
EDIT: What about "Skydracgrrl" was he/she going to join?

I think Ziroc does admissions weekly.

[RoSs_bg2_rox]

hey Larry, sounds like a brilliant plan!

[RoSs_bg2_rox]

so are we gona make it up by PM or what?

[Larry_OHF]

Let's wait until the game begins and post the conversation as a Prologue or something. That way, it will be part of the official story and we can interact our parts to learn our characters on screen and publically. From there, we will move into our DM's ship setting, where we can travel to our destined lands...

FYI>>>I am having internet trouble with the icestorm that has taken over my land. I will post whenever I can, but the crummy lines keep going down.

Originally posted by Skydracgrrl: I'm going to sign up, but I'll have to do it later... got a surprise bday party to throw for a friend I'll have it up later tonite, promise ^^ Oh, and welcome to IW gaming forum, Calsiumus [img]smile.gif[/img] you should tell us non-Swedish folks about this system you rp by ^^ it'd be interesting

Yes, I'm participating (she, btw ). Since this is going to be a relatively new experience for me (never done a sea-type rpg [img]smile.gif[/img] ), I'm going to use a familiar character... a few changes of course, I don't want anyone to be too familiar with her. [img]smile.gif[/img] Hopefully there are no objections ^^

Name: Skye
Gender: female
Age: about 22
Race: half-elf
Occupation: bladebard


Appearance
Weight: 102 lb
Height: 5'6
Eyes: blue violet
Hair: chestnut, contained in a long braid that ends right below her rear, and has jagged, chunky bangs that her eyes peek out from behind

Clothes: somewhat Eastern (oriental) in fashion, is of good quality in mostly blues. Consists of trousers, shirt, cloak, light elven chainmail, sturdy boots, and traveling gear (belt & pack).
Strengths: can get along with anyone very easily (amiable), so very good at bartering and getting "stories" for her profession; prefers the non-violent way out of things, but can be a lethal fighter if there's no other way; also proficient in many languages, especially draconic (thanks to her "familiar")
Weaknesses: can be clumsy sometimes; may be judged for being a half-elf breed (though very seldom; her amiable attitude often overcomes that); has yet to get her "sea-legs," having never traveled across a great distance of water;
Weapons: bastard sword by the name of Alus Miirik ("liquid song"); of draconic origin
Belongings: an intricate elven harp; traveling belongings as stated before; dragon tooth ring on right ring finger
Familiars: a male song dragon named "Eolandesamoradananne," Skye calls him Lyulfe for short... his draconic name is too long to say [img]smile.gif[/img] He has silvery blue scales with a tint of violet, like Skye's eyes; has a somewhat cynical attitude and dry humour, and is a character in of himself; Skye got him through her previous adventures and they haven't been parted since

History:
Very easygoing and easy to get along with, Skye always has a grin or smirk on her face, and practically everyone (including strangers) finds it easy to confide and trust her. Not wanting to have an opinion of any side, she doesn't follow any deity nor support any particular government. Because of this trait, Skye is usually a good mediator, and her friendly personality makes her a good bard. Sometimes she is a bit clumsy, but despite that she is a very lethal fighter. She can be mischievious sometimes, but on the flipside she can be very cautious and serious. Skye is usually found in a tavern, entertaining the populace, or wandering about the countryside, in search for exciting quests (and inspirations for songs). Because of her eastern origin, she's dressed somewhat outlandishly, but it's covered with an elven made cloak. Underneath she's wearing light handcrafted elven chain that doesnt inhibit her bardic skills. Skye has a pack that she carries her various necessaries that any adventurer needs, and some pouches on her belt.

Skye originated from the east, where the elves and humans got along somewhat well, so half elves weren't entirely uncommon. Her mother was elven, who seduced a human and bore Skye. She took Skye into the elven clan, and she never knew about her father except that he supposedly was a thief who was later hung. Raised in the elven clan, she learned the delicate arts that was common to elves, but unfortunately her human clumsiness still showed, and was a cause of much annoyance to her elven instructors. Because her mother was an aristocrat, Skye was able to train in the martial arts style of fighting that was only used by the aristocractic elves. She became a blade bard, in order to fulfill her mother's wishes of her to be learned in the arcane arts and martial arts, and also to respect her father's class. (bards know some magic, and also are trained somewhat like thieves.. or at least that was Skye's reasoning at the time). Upon having learned all she could, her thirst for knowledge and adventure made her wander westward, despite her mother's wishes for her to remain. Worried that someone might have been sent after her, Skye never mentions this part of her past. During her travels, a strange twist of fate bound her to a a cynical blueviolet song dragon, Lyulfe, so technically he and her were now blood brother and sister, according to draconic law.
Now at this present time, Skye and Lyulfe are preparing to embark across the water to unknown lands...
