That's about it for him! We just need sheets completed by Voadam and Mark Chance, and we'll be ready to rumble.
I added in equipment and a quick background, anything else I'm missing?

Voadam,
Robert looks good. I just noted a couple of things.
1. -1 STR penalty should be applied to his weapon damages.
2. +2 racial bonus for Move Silently is missing (+10 total).
That's it, everything else looks great. Go ahead and move his sheet over to the character repository when you get a moment.
Oh, and here's a rumor for Robert.
[sblock=Robert's Rumor]If you find the three carpets of Tral-Ferrer and put them together, they reveal some secret about Dragon's Delve.[/sblock]
EDIT: Any luck finding a picture to represent Robert?

Mark, I just noticed that Bellus looks like he's good to go. I'll review him shortly.
In the meantime, what color would you like to use for his speech?

Let's go for a bold magenta to emphasize how comfortable Bellus is with this maleness.

Mark Chance, I went over Bellus' sheet, and he looks perfect. Go ahead and move him over to the Character Repository thread at your convenience.
And, here's a juicy rumor for Bellus to start with.
[sblock=Bellus' Rumor]Part of the dungeon is actually a diamond mine still teeming with ore waiting to be discovered.[/sblock]

Well, I think we've got the character sheets pretty well sorted, now. I should have an IC thread up and running very soon.

House Rules/Skill Use
Guys,
I wanted to go over some of my intentions regarding use of skills and rolling dice.
On the whole, I'd like you to do as much rolling for yourselves as you can. Please use Invisible Castle using your PC's first name for this. For example, any time you post an attack action in combat, please go ahead and make your roll. For any action which may cause damage, please do go ahead and roll for that damage, even if it seems likely the action is not successful (hey, you never know!). I will roll for initiative when needed, and also for saving throws, to help avoid delays.
As for skills, please do go ahead and roll for any checks you wish to intiate such as Spot/Listen, Knowledge, Search, etc. However, be advised that I will also make skill checks for you in situations that come up, and let you know the results (spontaneous Knowledge checks if appropriate, for example).
Now, as for Search checks, there is a house rule. I know that in a big dungeon like this, the temptation is to plod along and take 20 on Search checks one square at a time, for fear of missing something. I find this to be too metagamey, and it strains my suspension of disbelief. I thought about discouraging this through liberal use of the wandering monster table, but I think it's better to just be direct. So, for this game, you may not take 20 on a Search check unless there is in-character information which leads you to believe there is something specific to look for (e.g., a captured goblin tells you there is a secret door in the next room). To counterbalance this nerfing, I will at times make passive Search checks for your PCs so long as they are moving cautiously and making an effort to be observant. I do want them to discover secrets after all, because it's part of the fun. But, abusing the Take 20 rules is also unfun, so this is my solution. Of course, you may always roll your own Search checks, and you may Take 10 if your roll is poor.
Comments welcome.
