[QUOTE="tuxgeo, post: 7103150, member: 61026"] What? Is there a list somewhere? :) I'm thinking maybe not? There are reasons: (1) my experience playing D&D is very limited; (2) I'm slow to build characters, so others may hop in before me; (3) I'm not nearly as imaginative a writer as you lot are; (4) I don't know whether I would fit in with the group as far as style is concerned. More about style: I have played in one campaign with Shayuri -- Li Shenron's Dungeon Crawl. In that, I was so green to the process that I didn't take her up on the idea of having our characters have a prior connection (both characters elves). However, reading the posts in Spell & Crossbones shows me how contrary-to-style that is. I also played in one campaign with both CanadienneBacon and KoboldStew -- CB's Stonefast. Again, I created my character in isolation. (Dwarf that time.) CB did give my PC Inspiration for roleplaying one time, but the campaign was mostly a dungeon crawl. Most recently, I played a human cleric in mips42's Lost Mines. I noticed that one of my fellow players from there, Neurotic, was determined not to be a good fit for QL's Al-Qadim game, though that might be as much due to the fact that the AQ effort is a high-level playtest as it is due to the player's personal style. So, yeah, I've been working on building a character for this campaign for months.* OK, years: this has been going on since 2014, and it's now 2017. (How time flies.) The character is still not coming together well. (I'm slow!) Details may not be necessary, as I haven't the background of piratical inspiration that the members of the party seems to have. (Never watched the Pirates of the Caribbean movies, for example.) [I][SIZE=2]* Edit to spoilerize speculation about possible PC: [sblock]Current status: Irish wood elf Warlock 3 / Sorcerer 1, Lachlan ("Lanny") Feeney from County Sligo, who can't go back to the Emerald Isle again (for reasons I'm not sure about. Maybe the Flight of the Earls?). (Because you've lost your Irishman and need another?) Made his home in Montserrat until his house and effects there were seized by the French when they took that island from the English for a year. Maybe marooned once? Without a strong Bond to La Gloriosa del Mar, which I haven't been able to come up with, this may continue to be an exercise in character-building.[/sblock][/SIZE][/I] :) [/QUOTE]
