Hrothgar if you are still recruiting alternates then I would like to throw my hat in. Though I do like to play the rogue type I do not believe that I would be stepping on Bihlbo's toes as I do like the sneak attack type. Though truth be told I like the skill point whore type. I would choose Erenlander and follow the Pureblood heroic path.
The character that I am playing in my tabletop Midnight game is Tim. Though they are much higher level I would love to bring him to the pbp setting, even at level 2. He would be more of a roof runner and stealthy type, He has been the one to go into a town and gather information from the locals about what is going on and doing what spy work we have needed. Though being the only Human in a group of Fey has placed him into that role I have taken to it with gusto. Tim would not be a party face, but more of a research and report type.
Basic history would be that recently he was a member of a group of road side bandits knocking off whom ever came by. Their main goal with this was to sustain a life of eating semi-decent food and sleeping under a roof for a night or two before they ran out of money. It was not for wealth but for sustainment that they robbed people. One day Tim left to get some basic supplies from a nearby town and when he returned the whole band had been slaughtered. Tim did not take the time to discover who it might have been who did it, but get as far away from there as he could as quickly as he could so he would not be associated with them and hunted down himself.
Let me know what you think. If you are full for the moment I am not afraid of hanging on as a watcher until he may be needed.
