Sorry I got your game up late Zerith and Axel but March Madness and an unscheduled movie (Sucker Punch) took up a lot of time this weekend.

Not to mention game updates, but should be smooth sailing now. Let's RP a little before heading off to adventure.

Please join me here...

has Axel posted up his character yet? I like to know Alex's height next to other characters :/

Suger. I thought it was too good to be true, that the BBG had left himself exposed like that.

Still its a good job we found out before triggering the ambush.

Do you just have something about being taller than other people? I'm noticing a lot of pointless questions related to height.


By the way, this:

One could feel his content smugness through his gas as if he was giving off some kind of demented monologue.

gave me a good laugh. I'm pretty sure you meant "gaze", but it was funny nonetheless. Call me juvenile if you wish, but the idea of this supposedly-composed brat contentedly farting at his superior officer before beginning a random tirade is rather amusing.

 

[Zerith]

Yesh, my grammar stinks
P.S. I fixed it with fire! >_<

Addon: also, Alex is replacing Martomum, so in essence they are more like equals now and with Alexander being a noble and being Martomum's replacement it's arguable he now out ranks Martomum. :/

Also: I'm a bit of an artist, so I know about perspective and scale (he is actually a lil shorter then me, but we are near enough in height that my general prospective is the same as his.) and knowing if he has to bend his head way down, or up, as the case may be, is useful for roleplaying.

Dose he need to bend down to comfortably shack hands with someone? are those 'tall and impractical steps' sized just right for him, is the bed too short?
Hight dos alot of things, and in the normal time frame of fantasy almost every thing is made one off: if you go to a house: the furniture will be sized to the occupant(s) (ever wonder why really old houses tend to have low ceilings? People have been getter taller.) and the details add up. as an RPer, I would be remise to not know Alexander's approximate size next to another PC/Major character.

P.S: Originally, back when he was going to be a clockwork knight, he was going to be very short, but his corent incarnation is a bit of an imposing figure who invokes a lot of presence when he enters a room and is hard to miss; thus his stature was adjusted to mach.
also, one of my general RP character rules is: don't make them standard height. Mine are general very short or very tall.
Below are two characters, I went strait from using one to the other

Zuak is over nine feet tall, he is a 'large' half-Wyvern who is remarkably able to vanish into any wooded area and likes eating gnomes (they crunch like chicken)

Drake (a name I recycle a bit to much...) is a three foot one dragon-kin mage who is very very shiny: he is about as hard to miss in day light as a rampaging ogre. he likes eating spiders: he also thinks every giant spider somehow knows he ate their tinny kin and tends to over nuke them in fear, alot
