Rocks. Young Morrek loved rocks. And metal and stone. This isn't that strange, him being a dwarf and all, but his parents were concerned. Morrek didn't fit in Dwarven society, and was prone to flights of fancy. "ROcks don't speak", his father would intone in a grave voice, "you need to find a trade and join the community. Even the priests have rejected your bid to join them as your crazy ideas got them riled up. The elders are considering exile if you don't contribute. Your brother and sister fit in. Why can't you?"

Morrek ran away. Ran into the bowels of the earth. Ran to his death. he slipped and fell down a shaft, and lying there dying, prayed to Moradin. A warm light poured out of a gem across the chamber, revealing a wondrous room with walls sparkling with gems and v eins of mithril. His wounds seemed to heal on their own. Morrek stumbled out of the cave and found himself in a strange land. He knew that it was his duty to strike at Moradin's enemies and to pay back his survival.

Morrek is a Young dwarf, about 40 years old or so. He is thick and solid even for his own kind. His iron-gray hair matches the gray eyes that dart wildly. His voise is deep and sonorous, although he speaks little except when channelling his god's might.

Are you full? Just read this:

http://www.enworld.org/forum/4740811-post614.html


Just rolled:
Abilities (4d6.takeHighest(3)=12, 4d6.takeHighest(3)=13, 4d6.takeHighest(3)=7, 4d6.takeHighest(3)=9, 4d6.takeHighest(3)=8, 4d6.takeHighest(3)=15)

15, 13, 12, 9, 8, 7

It somewhat diminished my interest...

Wunderbar! I anxiously await either your friend or Cabana to get this party started

P.S. you can just write r1 for short, saves time and confusion.

I've made an Eladrin wizard/ranger. I'll wrap him up and put him in a PDF early tomorrow, so we can get started tomorrow evening if you like.

So what have we got going? Paladin, Invoker, Sorcerer, Wizard/Ranger and Bard? Sounds comprehensive to me! What were your guys opinions on my Cunning/Valor question?

I was gonna suggest calling me rb, but with r1 it may get confusing. Raven will do, though!

Raven,

I'd suggest sticking to your ideas and going with Cunning. I would suggest setting up a contingency in your post (i.e. if goblin misses Morrek, slide goblin to square X), possibly two or three in order of priortiy. It'll require a bit more work on your part, but if it fits your vision of the PC then go for it.

I'll try to get the main game started today, or at the very latest tomorrow. I have a flooded basement and a big job interview taking up most of my time today.

Indeed Ian, good luck with the interview and focus on that stuff first. If you have the time go for it, but if not, no worries, a couple more days won't be bad

I'm all for taking the option that's more in character...but that's just me. I say go for whichever you think will be more fun.

PS I'll post a backstory soon (probably tomorrow). I have an exam tomorrow morning, so I've been kinda busy studying up for that.

Thanks guys! Got the job at T-Bone's (swanky restaurant in the Crowne Plaza Hotel hereabouts). Majority of the cooks are graduates from the Culinary Institute of Canada like me, so that's pretty cool (yeah yeah, I'm a Kitchen Bitch, what about it )

Well congratulations! That's great, I'm definitely envious that you can whip up a tasty dish. I had some food made for me on a trip in Mexico from one of their top chefs and it was possibly the best meal I've ever had. I have nothing but respect (besides, after seeing Ramsey in the kitchen, I'm terrified of what you go through)

I am happy to say that Gordon Ramsey's Hells Kitchen show is faked. He's a stern SOB in real life, but he's not going to throw a hissyfit like he does on the telly.

And Gresheks, get yer arse back home! I'm starting to brew root beer and the like now.
