Another awesome idea for mixing the real world and the D&D rules, Kiraya! I'll be lurking and reading this one I'm sure, but I better limit myself to that. Sounds like a neat family so far though!

Uncle Mark has always been a little... Off. Furtively checking over his shoulder, saying he thought he saw something or heard something. He's also the last person you want to deal with your new electronic gadget. For a while now, the family has been discussing having him 'looked at' but no one seems to have the time and he's not hurting anyone so the family just let him be.

Groovy! Welcome aboard!
I think we'll go ahead and tentatively close recruiting now. If someone doesn't get a character sheet in by the 20th, we'll let someone else sneak in to their spot.

Groovy. I'd like to ask that the Rogues Gallery version of the character be in a forum post - just easier for me to look at and reference. Thanks.

[sblock= Description] Terry is tall, and has a muscular build, which was necessary for tackling into whatever offense team he needed to face. He has blue eyes and short-yet-needs-a-trim dark hair, which he usually gels up before going anywhere. He doesn't wear his college football jersey anymore, it triggers bad memories. Oddly enough he has no such qualms playing football with some friends on weekends, not since he sanded off the team logo off his gear. When working in fast food, he wears a bold red/orange uniform and a matching cap, but prefers jeans. He also has a little gold chain on his neck with a tiny violet carved on it - a gift from one of his ex-girlfriends.
On the other side he becomes a halfling, slightly cuter-looking miniature version of himself, (Wow those are a lot of adjectives!) Though his outfits may change.
[/sblock]
[sblock= History] In the mundane world, Terry was a Linebacker for his college football team, a bit of a bully, too, just like his friends back at his old hometown. He had few other interests but he does like various fields of history, and to sew with needle-and-thread when alone in his room - a hobby he kept secret from everyone until recently. Terry was recently expelled from college on account of vandalism on campus grounds, because all of his "friends" quickly pinned the blame on him. He doesn't like to talk about it much. Though Terry regrets the whole ordeal greatly,(that's for certain,) his silence on the matter might not help his parents and teachers understand why he did it. He got a job at a small street food chain not far from his home, and he tries to make a little extra cash in his spare time, by selling what he can sew and knit, or potentially gambling late at night, if he could find a group in his new neighborhood.
What he'll find out when he crosses to the other side, is that his new home also offers a new life, new friends, new opportunities and new problems, all of which are absolutely not in the traditional sense!
