[D&D 3.5] Paths of Legend: Paths of Madness (OOC)

[Voda Vosa]

I do not understand the meaning of that word, silly. What I can say is that I liked the ogre, reminds me of other characters I had.

GlassEye, I'm sorry if I came off as rude. I was just hoping for a little more substance to the ogre's background. Even if the character is simple minded (ie, single digit Intelligence), I would've liked to have seen a little more to the character's personality and background than narrow minded obsession. Please reconsider your withdrawal and let me know if you'd like to work together on the background a bit.

In other news, the shadow progression is done and attached.

I think I ended up coming off a little harsher than I meant to with the use of that word, for which I apologize. In this context, what I meant by "silly" was something that didn't quite fit the overall tone of the campaign.

Thanks for that. I've updated my character sheet in accordance with your changes. I'm wondering about the mention that Shadows cannot speak intelligibly though; I'd figured that that limitation was dropped from Savage Species for the sake of PC shadows with higher than average intelligence. I'm wondering what kind of communication you believe shadows are capable of. Am I going to be limited to shadow-puppet-charades or a one-moan-for-yes-two-moans-for-no arrangement? Would it help if I traded my high-intelligence bonus language to learn to speak intelligibly?

Do you have any suggestions for my character's background?

Background This tragic character didn't survive the hardships of prison long enough to meet his fate upon the gallows. Whether he was initially guilty or not doesn't much matter any more. Having been badly beaten by a guard following a failed escape attempt, this inmate's body eventually succumbed to its brutal injuries. Left to rot in a lightless oubliette, the man died alone in the dark. Now darkness, a fleeting memory of a life lost and a dream of escape is all that remains.[/sblock]

Nah, you weren't rude. It just wasn't what I wanted to hear and I took it too personally. I apologize for that. I do want to play; I've been told you run a fun game and also there are a bunch of cool people involved that I'd enjoy rping with. Thanks for the second chance; I'll be sending you a pm.

Yay diplomacy!

Too bad the world isn't run by people as intelligent and level headed as us gamers.. Hmm, we should do something about that.

I'm down for a revolution.

As for breaking out of prison, my bard could just talk his way into getting the keys. That seems easy enough. Then he might be persuaded to release everyone else. As body guards. For money. Or in this case, I.O.U.'s. He's open to negotiations.

"Our diplomatic posture towards your country is..." *Roll dices* "Neutral"

Yes, please. Everyone, if you haven't already, please consolidate all of the information for your characters into one post.

In regards to gamers taking over the world, it's only a matter of time...
