Thanks for the compliment. Embarrassing? Nah. A lot of that is just flavor text 
And I enjoyed writing and reading it....so....it can't be that embarassing.
It was a 28 point buy for the stats...but I guess The Yeti actually randomized the appearance of Magnus. I just chose Tobias'/Funeris' description. I didn't feel much like letting that fall to the dice. If I had, I'd probably be a 4'-9" 276 lb. 53-yr old male with arthritis.
I just want to note: The thread has been viewed over a 1,000 times. Yay.
I'll catch that piratecat yet They like it....they really really like it

Embrassing - nay....
Not embrassing at all.
We did the Point Buy (28) for the stats, but the rest is pretty much left up to us.
So I just went random with the Ht Wt stuff.
That's how I ended up being a 16 yr old that was 6'2" 215lbs.
I'm slightly Chaotic myself, so I like rolling dice. Magnus was my first ever Point Buy character, but I've found I like it a lot. Takes some of the excitement of seeing those boxer cars all the way (triple 6's), or the horror of the eyeballs, but it makes for a very balanced power wise party. (I did like that Deep Gnome I had once with a Charisma of 6, Str 17, and Dex 18. Talk about a loud mouth, and he was a pure fighter on top of that.)
Was there a call for our characters yet to be posted?
Brief overview of our Party (if they want to supply specifics they can)
Funeris/Tobias - Fighter turned Paladin (must have got hit on the head or somthing) no evil escapes his great sword.
Fitz - Cleric of Ceria, haversting the flock with his wicked scythe.
Magnus - Wizard (of great power - at least in his own mind) (tends to go negative a lot on his hitpoints)
Motega - Ranger / ?? Our Rorn Tracker, his bow is deadly to all.
Here is Magnus as he exists now, just picked up 6th level last session.
Magnus Burn - Wizard - 6, Str 10, Dex 14, Con 10, Int 17(16 +1, 4th lvl), Wis 12, Cha 12, HP 19, AC 15 (Ring of Pro +1, Bracers +1, Amulet Nat Arm +1, Dex +2), Fort +3, Ref+6, Will +7 (Cloak of Resistance +1), BAB +3, Light Crossbow +1 (+6 to hit/1d8+1 damage), Several Wands and Scrolls(put to great use). Personality: Started off as a scared kid, grown quickily into a young man hardened by battle. Sometimes his boyishiness comes out, especially when Wisdom Drained, but other times he is a cold sadist and has no qualms about torturing to protect others.

Love your character yeti. Sounds like he has a lot of fun.
Embarrassing or not embarrassing...
I stand corrected
Thanks for your character stats and the info on the make-up of your party. Your personality description promises interesting stories to come our way...
Now, if anyone else wants to show the readers their characters, it would be much appreciated, I'm sure

Since you asked
Hello all,
I play Motega the Rorn ranger.
he is also currently 6th level at Ranger3/Rogue3 Stats are Str 14, Dex 14, Con 12, Int 13, Wis 14, Cha 10. Search, Spot, Listen, Survival, Hide, and Move Silently are maxed out with ranks spread around in Use Rope, Ride, Tumble, Climb, Balance, Jump, Knowledge Nature, Geography, Dungeoneering, Sense Motive, Handle Animal, and Heal.
Feats are Improved Initiative, Dodge, Self Sufficient, Mobility, Rapid Shot, Endurance, and Spring Attack (In the Valus you can take a heritage level that locks a human to a favored class but gives you a bonus feat--in my case Rorn's favored class is barbarian and the feat is Improved Initiative) Favored enemies at this point are humans.
He is the party mule at this point with a haversack full of the party gear and has magical weapons (longsword and mighty composite longbow), magical studded leather, ring of protection, cloak of resistance (alll +1) He also has a pair of boots that have a Move Silently bonus of +2.
Motega is the tracker/scout of the group. He is smaller and slighter than the rest of the party and is a little feral. He does not say much (In the Valus the racial slur for Rorn is 'no-byes'). He is an atheist but has a strong code of honor and deep tribal beliefs. He takes a 'no nonsense' approach to things and yes, he is a cannibal-though he does not see what is wrong with this.
Oh and for some reason in combat, my rolls are pathetic until a party member (or two...or three..) drops and then its just the opposite. You will see very soon an example of this.
This campaing has been a blast and I just hope Motega survives long enough to reveal his secret to the group.
Thanks for the interest and Funeris/Tobias, keep up the good work
Your friendly neighborhood cannibal.

Tapping foot....
Don't see a story hour yet this week.
And don't give me the old "I've worked 75 hours this week", excuse either.
I need somthing to read here at work.

Ok...so, no updates this week. Sorry...but i have worked near 75 hours this week...but i know, you don't care. Snap snap goes the whip. <sigh> Sorry you're bored at work, maybe i should email you some of my work...you know, to keep you busy.
On the upside, loyal fans, I have nearly completed the gigantic project i'm working on. Which means...next week, you will see an update or two.
