[QUOTE="Fimmtiu, post: 1601358, member: 7953"] Well, without sitting down and starting a new Story Hour, here's a quick summary: 1. LN half-ogre barbarian/monk with a 4 Charisma that manifests as intense shyness and difficulty understanding social conventions. He's probably the best-played character of the lot, which unfortunately means he stays in the background a lot. Goals: Subdue his bestial nature, find harmony and inner peace, etc. 2. LN maenad psion (from the XPH). Philosophically inclined, arrogant, sort of disdainful of the other characters. Similar goals. 3. CG gnome bard who's just "along for the ride". A trickster who relishes money and danger for their own sakes. Hasn't got any goals, really, except perhaps to feel useful. 4. CN tiefling sorceror recently escaped from slavery in an efreeti palace, whose sole goal at the moment is to evade recapture. He's been the plot "pivot" since the beginning, hiring the other three as bodyguards against the forces pursuing him, but that plot is approaching completion and I'd like to give the other characters a chance afterwards. As far as the setting is concerned... the psion is a member of the Fraternity of Order, and the half-ogre is curious about the Ciphers, so I might be able to use that somehow. I haven't had any serious problems with the alignment issue yet, but I can tell they're coming. It'd be nice if the party was already fairly closely-knit when they occur. [/QUOTE]
