Thank you all for your interesting and worthy submissions. Since I must choose, the PCs will be as follows:
Jemal: Kurina - Elven Female Ranger/Sorc/Horizon Walker/Arcane Archer.
Clutching Yggdrasil: Zacharia Te'Ashun - Elf Paladin / Rogue.
Shayuri: 'Grandfather' - Druid.
Voidrazor: Haessellekh - Elan Wizard / Psion / Cerebremancer.
sans: Yolo Hallowberry - Cleric.
Please stat up your PC and post it in the Rogues' Gallery.
The PCs have heard that Mayor Richards of Settonton intends to crown himself king; in fact you have all recieved an invitation to his coronation, which is set for tomorrow. This is an important development because it represents a clean break with the old Bylan Empire, and there is no doubt that many other local rulers will soon follow this example all around the continent. The orcs to the north of Settonton have declared their own kingdom, but they were never truly integrated with the Bylan Empire in the first place, so that drew much less attention. You also know that there is growing tension between humans and the half-orc minority in the Settonton area, which risks spiraling into violence.
You all know each other and have worked with some or all of the other PCs during the war. Now, you are gathering in Settonton to discuss the recent developments. You are known as great heroes, and your words would carry weight with the people, should you choose to take a political stand.
Does it make sense that you would meet at a tavern, or would you prefer another place?
We'll start IC as soon as that's clear, which should be tomorrow if you all post
You may have noticed that I already started the IC thread, but don't post IC quite yet; it's intended to help build up interest.
