Alright then! I can almost certainly have a character posted up for approval by this time tomorrow, with full background etc.

Cool. I didn't notice until i responded that you already had filled out your 8 players. i hope 9 isn't too much for you (just let me know if it is and i'll understand)
The party is without a rogue at this point? If that's the case, I'll make one. Not sure about other stuff, but it shouldn't take me long to make a 1st level pc.

No worries. A rogue would be great, but don't feel obligated to do it if that's not what you really want.

I've decided to go with a psychic warrior instead... probably human. I just got the Psionics book and I'm dying to make one. Should I start working my PC on the Rogue's Gallery thread?

Submitted for approval:
Physical Description: Alyssa has very fine, delicate features, beautiful by human (though perhaps not quite by Elven) standards. She has straight, shoulder length light blonde hair and bright, vibrant green eyes. She dresses in simple, non-descript traveller’s clothes underneath her leather armour and a grey travellers cloak and hood which is usually drawn up.
Personality: Alyssa is a very gentle, easy-going person. She is generally very calm, and always prefers to stand back and review the facts before diving into a situation. When her passions are roused, however, she becomes utterly determined and almost impossible to divert from her course.
She believes that freedom is the right of all creatures, and she does not understand those who feel the need to impose their will, or indeed their moral standards, on to others. She holds herself to high standards, but does not necessarily expect the same from others. Above all, she believes that everybody is just trying to find happiness in their own way and that it is not her place to interfere with that unless they begin to inflict their ways on others. She herself is driven always by an insatiable wanderlust and curiosity, a feeling that all the answers to the trials and tribulations of life lie just beyond the horizon. As to the trials and tribulations, for her they normally take the form of a certain melancholia, a mood of destructive introspection, that occasionally seems to consume her – although generally it is fairly short lived.
Background: Alyssa is generally a very open and forthcoming person, but she refuses to speak of her background to anybody. It occasionally seems to trouble her, but whatever demons she has from her past seem as if they will remain entirely within her own mind. Possibly this is a product of her natural self-reliance, or possibly there is something darker than that, something horrible within her past that she cannot bring herself to speak of. That would certainly explain her occasional bouts of depression, not to mention her seeming lack of any roots or family.
Well, there we go. The only problem I foresee is that the party already has an archery specialist, but hopefully that won't matter too much since my char. doubles up as a very effective scout.

The character looks good too, though obviously I don't have the last say. I am curious, though--are you going to email or PM silentspace with a background? I guess that's none of my business, but let me warn you--it might be dangerous leaving it unsaid. silentspace has a way of making things up for you. Welcome to the campaign!silentspace

You guys can go ahead and post in the Rogues Gallery. Chaos Apostate, your char looks good. You start off with a free light warhorse (see the first post in the IC thread).
I have a question for you and Hurricain though – how come you’re specializing in the longbow as opposed to the composite longbow? Only composite bows can be made into mighty (str bonus) bows. Plus, you can’t use the longbow while mounted. Historically, composite bows were kick-ass.
Yep, I want some sort of background, if you have some ideas. I want to tie you guys into the world.

silentspace... I was under the impression that longbows and composite longbows were considered to be the same proficiency. Thus, weapon focus in longbow gave you a +1 attack in either weapon. Perhaps that wasn't the case under 3.0, I can't really remember.
I should have a PC up by tomorrow.
