I've been kind of sick this week and haven't had time.First of all, I like Xavier's background, but that was the only part of it I could read. The reason the text is messed up is because you copy/pasted it without using the [code] tag. That tag formats each character with equal spacing like in Notepad.This brings up an important point. I know some of you are new to this, but it is important to me to have readable character sheets. It isn't just important to me though. You will thank yourselves as well when looking up info in the future or making adjustments.To have a pretty character sheet, start by copy/pasting the blank character sheet into Notepad, not Word or a similar word processor (unless you use a Courier font). This a key detail. Then press [Insert] on your keyboard and carefully enter information into the character sheet, making sure not to use the backspace key anywhere. Wherever there are Xs that need to be blanked over, use the [Space] key. Again, this is a key detail. Once you have entered all the character information into the Xs, copy/paste the information into a post, making sure the entire character sheet is included within a [code] tag. If you are not familiar with using forum tags, [URL="http://www.ibdguy.com/"]this site[/URL] has a good tutorial (you don't have to read very far to get the basics). Note EN World uses brackets, not the < and > symbols to enclose their tags. Make sure your post looks pretty by clicking "Preview Post" before you hit "Submit Reply." If something doesn't look right, go back and retrace your steps to make sure you didn't make any mistakes. It doesn't have to be perfect, just readable.Willette - Xavier's equipment list looks fine. Xavier's truck isn't working though. The EMP from the blast knocked out the starter. Also, vehicles in the damage radius of a nuclear blast typically have a 0% chance of surviving in workable condition. Your description of Xavier being in a building is probably the reason he survived (assuming it was a sturdy building and he was on the first floor). You will probably be able to scrounge up most of the other equipment from the truck however. It might become a burden to lug around the tool kits unless you find a duffel bag or something though.failedreality - As I mentioned to Willette, most vehicles won't survive the blast, and if they do, their electronics won't work because of the EMP. So you could have a Rolls-Royce for all I care. It would be worth so much garbage in the radius of a nuclear blast. :)I will now start looking at character sheets (those I can read anyway :)). In the meantime, check out the OOC thread. In a few moments I will post a couple maps.[/code]</blockquote>
