[QUOTE="Forged Fury, post: 6794259, member: 95059"] I mainly wanted to see how many "front line" types people wanted to play, whether it be fighter/paladin/hilariously well-built Abjuration Wizard. I've done some light reading on Greyhawk and am working on a light background for my character. [sblock=Brak Bloodbear, Human Barbarian]Brak is a 50-year-old human, although his years of hard living make him look at least a decade older.
