A tall man, wirey thin steps in, his dark olive leathery skin split wide with a toothy grin. His long black hair is tied back hastily with a turquoise leather braid that matches his bright turqouise knee high leather boots. A hoop earing dangles from one ear, and a fairly old and  battered longsword hangs from his belt, where he rests both hands comfortably. Said hands are covered with blue tatoos of lotus leaves that cover both of his heavily scarred forearms. One eye sparkles green, full of mischief. The other is dead and pale, a scar running throught it from the bridge of his nose to his right ear. He wears a loose fitting black pants and a sleevless vest with no armour beneath. He meets anyone's gaze with the same toothy grin and a friendly nod as he walks up towards the bar. When asked what he wants to drink he points, still smiling, at a barrel of ale, and then gives a thumbs up. He lounges againt the bar soaking in the atmosphere, stroking his long black beard bound tightly with a series of meatl rings, and eavesdropping blatantly in on nearby conversations. He sips at his ale, tankard in one hand while flipping a  coin in the other.  Every now and then the coin disappears in mid air, only to reappear back in his hand a moment later to be flipped into the air once more. Edit: If approached or asked he hesistates and eventually, a slight blush tinging his cheeks and looking down at his very turquoise boots, he speaks his name: " K-Kane ... K-Kane Ar-k-cane"After 15 or 16 drinks and a round for those at the bar Kane almost begins speaking quite fluidly, his timid stutter becoming almost mild, the slurr however makes his words a little hard to follow."Nnnn I, I luffff fyu t-too, Barnney. Whennn I g-ge ba-frommmmy journney, I-Immma comminte sshe ye onnnda farmmm uvyoursshh"Suddenly he sits bolt upright on his barstool, eyes as wide as plates. "My journey ! ... ohwgawddaboot, Ivferrrgottaboutdaboot!"He slaps down a pile of coins, which may or may not have been the right amount. He kisses the sleeping farmer next to him on his bald pate and stumbles out the door whistling an off key sea ditty.[/sblock][OOC] Hey everyone, this is my first character, Kane Arcane, made last night, and so still waiting approval. He doesn't talk much as he has a stutter. I see in the other Tavern Patron thread that most patrons are nearly all around 6th lvl or inactive. What is the usual 'wait time' in the tavern to get into a game, especially an entry lvl 1 game? TwoHeadsBarking has taken a look at it all ready, and spotted a number of flaws I've adjusted. If anyone else wants to have a gander: <a href="http://l4w.wikia.com/index.php?title=PC:Kane_Arcane_(jbear1979)&s=wl" target="_blank">PC:Kane Arcane (jbear1979) - L4W Wiki</a> I wasn't really sure where the place was to introduce myself to the community. I think these Living World Pbp communities are a cool idea, and hope to be able to contribute as I find my feet. Anyway, hopefully some of us will be playing together some time soon or in the near futrue <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> Edit: Well it looks like Kane is off to be shipwrecked on a distant island. I made Kane's entry a flashback, a suggestion from mewness who has accepted me into his game. I was loathe to delete an introduction post that received such a warm welcome from the L4W community, so a flashback seems like a good compromise. If someone feels that it's not on let me know and we'll try and find an alternative.Cheers again for the awesome welcome everyone, at which point, might I take this moment to kindly ask if someone would mind having a look at Kane's sheet and giving a second approval. That would be very much appreciated if someone could do that. Cheers! From what I gather the chances are low of Kane ever making it back to the bar ... hehehehe, sounds ominous!  So I guess next time I'll be back in the Tavern will be with a second character if Kane reaches lvl 2. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />[/OOC]</blockquote>
