[QUOTE="IdentityCrisis, post: 1321267, member: 16089"] Yeah, I've got two concepts. I want to get an idea of what the others will be playing before I make my final choice and lock down the details. Here they are: 1) An aging human Sourcer/Guilder, who has the gift of wizardry but spent many years focused on becoming rich instead. This is because his wife died from a genetic condition which could have been treated by the church, only the price was beyond his means - and he wanted to ensure that he would have the wealth to save his daughter when the condition struck her. He would likely be a rogue/wizard and a landless regent, with his domain consisting mostly of guild holdings and perhaps a single, powerful source (with ley lines). His daughter would be his only lieutenant. 2) An evil elven sorceror, who over the decades has been slowly but surely expanding his domain one province at a time. He expels all non-elves from the areas he conquers, in the name of restoring Cerilia's magic. He is patient, willing to spend years hoarding gold and regency, then waiting for (or even engineering) an oppourtunity to gain control of a new non-elven province. He would control several provinces and sources. In non-elven lands controlled by others, he'll want some Law, Temple and guild holdings to make it easier to destabilize whatever region he plans to conquer, and to make it difficult for other neighboors to interfere. He'll probably have two or three vassals/lieutenants. If anyone wants to use either of these ideas for inspiration, or start the game already having some sort of relations to my regent/domain, let me know. [/QUOTE]
