Boooo-rriiinng!!!

But yes, if you want.

edit: Then again, you'll need a character first, won't you?

my computer is 'color blind' and it is easier for me to just type with little to no color alterations. I have occasional acces to another computer at a coffee shop, but that is never garenteed.

Characteer concept:

Marcus Dubois- bastard son of a minor noble, always picked on as being the bastard. has left him a bit jaded, but wishes very much to please his father, so tries to do good, but with a 'dark attitude'.

how does that sound so far?

Ah, all right then. In that case, white is just fine.

Your beginning concept sounds just fine. I forget, though, did you ever specify a class for Marcus?

Working up a human rogue with the Infernal Bastard trait, a tiefling abandoned by her House who grew up in an orphanage and on the streets. Thorn has a grudge against any and all of the nobility, and should she ever find out what House her parents are in, then her grudge will sharpen and focus considerably.

Probably get some of those 'magic rogue' powers, plus the fast Stealth.

Aiming for Shadowdancer later.

Here's what I have so far:

Shayuri and Mowgli, what say you to the idea that House Valanthe is the noble house responsible for a.)the siring and abandonment of Thorn -and- b.)the killing of Slip's family?

...just trying to weave a thread between us...

I like it! My original intent was to leave it vague so that Malvoisin could use it, but this would give us lots of role play - from Slip's perspective, teaming with a member of his favored enemy race and a member of the House that killed his parents . . . hmmm . . . are we continuing the Shakespearean motif alluded to earlier? Will it end up a comedy or a tragedy?

 

[CanadienneBacon]

Hopefully, it will end in tragedy for House Valanthe but the rest of us responsible for the demise of the house will happily remain fast friends. That was my thought, anyway.
