Are you guys still looking for people? I would love to play a Half-elf Cleric multiclassing into fighter who specializes in polearms. I would go Warpriest at 11 and at 16 get marking. Still looking for one more? I would go low charisma from in his background he would be more of an athiest since he blames the gods for his families deaths.
Sorry, we are full. Even more full than I expected.

As a side note, when battle comes, I will be more melee based, but I just couldn't pass up taking Vicious Mockery (I promise not to make fun of their berry-smelling dad and furry little mom, but everything else is fair game).
Also, had one question as per the plethora of sliding allies in the game: for sake of time, will it be assumed that the person doing the sliding is smart enough to place people or will it be more along the lines of the slided person choosing where to slide on their turn?
Great, expecting background then. I'll take the second choice of the sliding thingy.

Also, if we need a tank I could probably alter my backstory a bit to fit a warden (which I've been dying to try out anyway). It'd take me about 20 min to make the switch.
By all means choose what you want to play.

He will be rather simple. He joined a now disbanded mercenary unit when he was younger and now does what work he can.

Voda, I just realized this is for 4E, which I'm not particularly fond of. Sounds like you've got more than enough players and 'strikers' in particular anyways. So I think I will withdraw from the game, though it sounds very interesting. Good luck with it and I'll see you in all the other games we share!
I'm going with my cleric Voda so you know which I've decided on!!....
If Yttermayn is not playing someone new is more than welcome to my ranger build if they want to use it.. it's there.. it's already done... less work for someone else

Basic Melee: Greatsword +3/1d10
Basic Ranged: Hand Crossbow +3/1d6 10/20
FEATS
1: Armor Proficiency (Leather)
Race/Class Features
Astral Majesty: You have a +1 bonus to all defenses against attacks made by bloodied creatures.
Astral Resistance: You have resistance to necrotic damage and radiant damage equal to 5 + one-half your level.
Censure of Retribution
When any enemy other than your oath of enmity target hits you, you gain a bonus to damage rolls against your oath of enmity target equal to your Intelligence modifier until the end of your next turn. This bonus is cumulative.
At Will Powers Bond of Retribution: +7 vs. AC / 1d10+4. The first time an enemy other than the target hits or misses you before the end of your next turn, the target takes 3 radiant damage. Overwhelming Strike: +7 vs. AC / 1d10+4. You shift 1 square and slide the target 1 square into the space you occupied.
Encounter Powers Memory of a Thousand Lifetimes: Add 1d6 to att/sav/skill roll (Personal) Oath of Enmity Minor Close burst 10. Effect: melee attack, make two attack rolls until end of enc. Special:can choose new target is enmy reaches 0 hp. Divine Guidance Imm. Int. Close burst 10 Ally gets 2 att rolls versus oath target. (Channel Divinity) Abjure Undead Close burst 5. 1 undead. +4 vs. Will / 3d10+4 radiant damage, pull the target 5 squares.
The target is immobilized until the end of your next turn.
Miss: Half damage, and you pull the target 1 square.(Channel Divinity) Avenging Echo: +7 vs. AC / 1d10+4. Until the end of your next turn, any enemy that ends its turn adjacent to you or that hits or misses you takes 8 radiant damage.
Daily Powers Temple of Light: +7 vs. AC / 2d10+4 Radiant.
The attack creates a zone of radiant energy in a burst 2 centered on the target. The zone lasts until the end of the encounter. When the target moves, the zone moves with it, remaining centered on it. Whenever you hit a creature that is within the zone, that attack deals 1d6 extra radiant damage.
Orim awoke. He looked around, and knew he had lost something. It was not clear what it was but he knew. Reincarnation is a hard thing to decribe in the common tongue. In some ways, the strongest memory to persist is the feeling of awakening. Never this sense of utter loss. Thoughts flickered. No, this wasn't even the first awakening after the loss. But dying ties me back. He couldn't remember every detail, but his failure to protect the Pharoah, still stings. Looking around the shore at which he found himself, he starting walking to a new life.
Orim was angry. He didn't fit in here. The place he fit is gone forever. Torm is worthy enough but I don't feel as connected as I once did. A mission of protection? That sounds like familiar territory. Perhaps I can't still be at least useful.
A final failure. She is dead. I could not stop, there were too many, and I killed many of them. I am not an instrument of defense, am I? I am cold, brutal vengeance personified, and I don't even know who killed her.
Orem stands 6'3" tall. His gangly body is almost lost in the fold s of his grey cloak. His piercing eyes, too blue to be human, dart about furtively. His gray skin and dull white markings obscuyre his features.
He has been working as a thug and assasin of the weak and helpless. He has fallen prey tio vice and depression.
He gets involved with the mission as he sees the woman he was supposed to protect joining up. She is clearly rattled by the injuries, and does not recognize him. Orim wonders, "Is this my path to redemption?"

Sad to see you go. I can only warn you, 4e is going to get you, it will!

Voada Vosa, don't worry about it. Real life comes first, right?
FreeXenon, I like the idea, and as much as I've thought about playing the 'mysterious hero' type of character, this character is pretty lacking in the mysterious department. So sadly those super cool question marks you gifted unto me will need replacing. For my character, the name is Drake, AC is 14, my feat I took is Jack of all Trades, I'm trained in Arcana, Diplomacy, History, Nature, and Religion, and I've got a longsword and insults as my primary means of hurting things. I think that was what you were listing, if you want to double check, my character is on page 3 of the thread.

Made a RG for the game. Please post your character's sheets there so I can keep easy track on them. I'll get nickpicking later and send you Pms with the corrections, if any; but for the moment, when I have all the sheets in there, I'll start the IC thread.

Yay, nickpicking! Yay RG! Yay sleeplessness! Yay Largo!.... I'm done.... thank you for nickpicking, though, it tends to make the character holes go away, and that's a good thing.
On a side note, I noticed that I haven't been talking much, and apologize for that..... or maybe I should apologize for typing while tired, hmmm.....
In any case, Drake is on the RG page, and I'm off to bed.
