FULL- Dark Comedy Game-Quest For The Lady

Monty Python's HG meets Labyrinth meets Jabberwocky meets Princess Bride meetsDon Quixote meets Discworld meets...
Hopefully you get the picture at this point.

We have a Paladin 9
We have a Wizard 4/Paladin 5
A Cleric or grumbly Squire would be great.
A smart-assed Minstrel would be even better.
No Druids or Monks.
Try to keep the Meta Cross/Class to a reasonable level, say no more than 2 Core Classes (Prestige is OK).

Dark Fantasy Setting 'The Kingdom'.
Clerics worship 'God' <giving God a name is a good way to get a Lightning Bolt up your arse...I mean, really, someone would start feeling really Chummy and give him a nickname, and then all Hell would break Loose (Literally), and that can't be good>.
The Knights are in need of a Quest, a Noble Quest, something worthy of the Bard's Tales <or whatever 10 GP will buy, because you KNOW they didn't save any starting cash, what with the Market for Holy Avengers going the way it has, it's getting so a Knight can't even get a decent Blade of God for less than a Dragon's Fortune...speaking of which.

Yes, there is a Dragon. A Big, Nasty,Hungry and Ferocious Dragon. He means business as well...<well, not literally, I mean, Dragons going about setting up Laundrettes would just be a bit daft, don't you think?>. No, business, in the 'Kill the Knights, Eat the Princess sort of way <which, truth be told, is a far better investment than Laundrettes, what with the way the price of fabric softener has gone...>.

Anyways, post a character concept, be ready for silly, with lots of elipsis, parethetical interjections and footnotes by the DM.
Wanna play!?!

Post a concept...

Human only, No Druids, no Monks,9th Level...of bugger, that bit is all in another post anyways. This was just suppossed to get you attention <Speaks to the Attention Gnomes> 'Hear,Hear!!! Where's that bit of fluffy yellow ribbon we were gonna put across the Title, eh!?! That would have got em posting.

I am all about the concept. I have a level 12 paladin in PBs game that seems to be ...like mythmere's (RIP). Since you know you're gonna run it ;) , how bout 12th...or 6th:D

This would be great! I'd love to be the knight/paladin! But just out of curiousity, would this be more of a serious game, light-hearted game, or somewhere inbetween?

Well, unlike my other 'Hey, what about this?' Games, where I get suckered (By myself, mostly) into running it...I wanted to play :p
I'm all about the Minstrel!

I was envisioning Don Quixote meets Monty Python and the Holy Grail...meets Princess Bride...meets
er...
ACK..Ok, I'm Doomed.

4 Players. first Dibs to the 4 who have posted within a day from now, then whoever asks.
+1 other player (Argent).
Perhaps 1-3 Fighter/Paladin types?
Don't worry about being a stiff and boring Paladin...Lancelot from MPatHG is Paladin Material...if twisted. I mean, Kill the Evil and all that right!?!
I'll do the Minstrel or the Wizard/Cleric as an NPC Cohort for Fighter/Paladin type 1...:D.I also make no promises about Familiars and Holy Warhorses...I think I'll let them both talk hehee. I love NPCs with personality.

So, the 1-3 Bashers (3 people mentioned wanting to be a Knight)and...a Squire? a Cleric? a Wizard?

9th Level. Humans only.
No Monks,Druids or Sorcerers.Paladins and Clerics worship 'God', they would never dare try and put a Name to him...HE wouldn't like that...Domains are any 2 that seem right. GOD is all about Warfare and Smiting the Infidel, as well as extorting from the Masses...er, I mean 'Protecting the Masses'.

35 point Buy, HP Max@1st and 3/4 after <D4=3,D6=4,D8=6,D10=7,D12=9>.

40,000GP, no more than 1/2 on any one item.

Paladins be aware, Warhorses are your only Special Steed Option initially. If you want to try to ride a Griffon that you encounter, good luck...but you won't start with one.

Core Books + the WOTC Class Books (Masters of the Wild,Song&Silence,Sword and Fist,Tome & Blood,Defenders of the Faith Feats from FRCS ok too, although I reserve judgement on anything from any of the above mentioned sources).

Er...no Ogre Knights.
Looking for a more Historical Dark Myths feel, and Shrek or Legolas sort of Ruin that...

I already reserved you a spot, Argent...see post above.
OK, Argent, and the 4 above as long as they post soon/within a day. The game will not be started until prob next Sunday, since my week will be REALLY long as far as work goes...off to sleep:a couple of 12 hour days remodelling a Nightclub UGH! Oh, the trials and travails of a lowly Floor Manager.
Argent, any character in mind?
