[QUOTE="SeaSerpent01, post: 15951, member: 1537"] Allow me to introduce myself I am Kol`n Starbringer. No matter how every one else spells it this is the only right way. Yes, I am the elf now known as "floppy" to my wonderful sword Darryl. I am now going to give you the PRE-Darryl history. At least enough so that you, the reader of this history, can understand where I come from. I was born of a human father and an elven mother. Yes, I was borna half breed. We lived together in the city of Safeton, which is in under the rule of Greyhawk. Growing up was not fun or easy. I was bullied by every to bit human that thought i need to be beaten upon. So my father took it upon himself to teach me the finer points of fighting. He was a carrer military man so this of course came natural to him. But to me it was hard and tideous work. But Ienjoyed it because of how proud I made my father. So there after I bagan to win the fights with the bullies of Safeton and so started my reputation. But I still had my elven ancestry to up hold so my mother started to tutor me in the was of the arcaine arts. I was even worse at this than I was at fighting. At least I was at first. I complete dumb founded my mother by casting spells with out the aid of a spell book. I hated her spell book. I could barly read it and found it not very useful. I excelled in the use of the bow over all other weapons. (to my mother delight) I found that the broadsword was to heavy to use comfortably so I started with the rapier and have never changed. And life continued until the day my father died. When my father died my mother up and moved us back to her home town to live among the elves. (dont ask me the name I still have a hard time pronouncing it) And the bulling started all over again. Only this time the bulling quit as fast as it started thanks to my father tutoring.
