Oh my. Chosing the 2 parties was harder than I thought it would be!
Some notes on my decisions:
- I wanted to bring one of each class into the game.
- I wanted to get an even mix of "normal vs. weird" races.
- Tried to take into consideration who submitted their concept first as well.
So, here goes..
Party 1:
Defender: Falkus: Durvin, of Clan Deepfire, Dwarven Paladin.
Striker: Graf: Alternative, Warforged rogue.
Leader: Jemal: Daniel Willow, Elf cleric of the Raven Queen.
Controler: A Passing Maniac: Malik, thiefling Wizard.
Random 1: Kobold Stew: Wittgenstein, Kobold Fighter.
Random 2: pathfinderq1: O-Haril, Minotaur Ranger.
Party 2:
Defender: SKTillBreakODay: Szel Wispfollower, elven Fighter.
Striker: Bialaska: Tara the Feytouched, Human Warlock (Fey pact).
Leader: Nonamazing: Cyrial, Shadar-Kai cleric of Sehanine.
Controler: Kaodi: Fodor, bugbear Illusionist
Random 1: Zweischneid: Mordras Blackleaf, Eladrin Rogue.
Random 2: Albedo: Tye Sonner, Dragonborn Warlord.
Take some time to finish up your characters, and I will get a couple of RG's posted later today. I am thinking that everyone starts in the same game, then split off into 2 separate threads once the parties splits.
Small note to Kobold Stew: I should have probably mentioned this before, but your background clashes a bit with the NPC's background. The Captain and her siblings don't have any kids or somesuch. I guess you can have the Daughter NPC be a Daughter of one of the others on the Ship. The cook or Navigator comes to mind. Could also be the child of Cargo/Weapon master I guess.
For the rest:
There really isnt any particular reasons why you didnt get chosen, all the conceps are really great. I'll put you all up in a "backup list" or something like that.

Excellent! I believe my character is complete, but I will do a final check when I carry him over to the RG thread. I can already see some interesting options for character interaction.

yeah if my character isn't done, please tell me, cause Szel would hate to be one of them en-pee-cee's.
=D thanks!
=D thanks!

I misunderstood -- I thought you wanted connections with the NPCs; I had seen no harm in inventing a character that was far far away.
In any case, the description has been changed; let me know if it's acceptable as is.
Looking forward to the game.

The dwarven armor: O-Haril was rescued from an excruciating death on the burning sands of a great desert- his rescuers were a party of explorer/merchants led by the dwarven metalsmith Calivar Archstone. In gratitude, O-Haril swore himself to Calivar's service, acting as a bodyguard. Calivar wanted him to have the best equipment available, and commisioned a specially-fitted suit of dwarven chainmail. When Calivar retired to enjoy the profits of his years of work, O-Haril became a free-lance mercenary- but he was allowed to keep the armor as a reward for his valuable service.
Appearance: [sblock] Like most "civilized" minotaurs, O-Haril is both taller and heavier than even the largest human around him- but by the standards of his folk O-Haril is of only about average height, with a lean build. His musculature is fairly well-toned, and he moves far more gracefully than most of his kin. His skin is deeply tanned, a brown so dark it is nearly black, and unlike most minotaurs his body has little excess hair- even his head is quite nearly bald. Under most circumstances, he wears a sleeveless hauberk of dull black chainmail, metal and leather armbands, and heavy knee-length trousers. His horns are capped with black iron. In combat, he seems rather terrifying, wielding an enormous ax in each hand. He does not speak often, mainly expressing himself with gestures, body language, and the occasional snort or growl- when he does speak, he keeps his voice low, letting the deep bass tone emphasize his carefully chosen words. [/sblock]
Personality: [sblock] For the most part, O-Haril presents a quiet and reserved front, a sort of haughty dignity- until the fighting starts. This is because he exerts a great deal of willpower to minimize his natural inclination to violence. Only when in combat does he let down his guard, allowing his bloodthirsty nature to take over- as a follower of Kord, he relishes the chance to prove himself in battle. He is a strong believer in personal discipline, and is proud of his ability to remain calm and controlled (until the appropriate time). O-Haril is fascinated by stories of heroism and adventure, and spends a great deal of his spare time reading or listening to any epic tales of bravery or exploration- one side effect of this is his prodigious knowledge of many different environments and creatures. [/sblock]
Background: [sblock] Born in a remote desert enclave, O-Haril shunned the dark tendencies of his kind and for his temerity he was cast out to die in the endless burning sands. But he did not die, for a passing caravan of merchants took pity on him- in return O-Haril became the devoted bodyguard and scout for the leader of the merchants, a dwarf named Calivar. Since that worthy fellow retired, O-Haril has sought out other work in a similar vein. A devoted follower of Kord, he has honed his strength and battle prowess, but his strength of spirit has increased as well. [/sblock]

I think Alternative is done.
I was wondering if he might be smuggling something in one or more of his hidden storage compartments. Only if it'd be an interesting plot point.
