For inspiration, I've added a cool top-down map of Cauldron as a thumbnail in the first post. Head on up there and have a look!

Seven Deadly Stings (Intari)
Description: Seven Deadly Stings (or Intari to those not from his clan) is a strange sight to the common resident of Cauldron. A native of a far off desert, Seven Deadly Stings possesses the dark skin of his people. Always small, he stands at only 5’5” and weighs a scant 148 pounds. He shows no signs of facial hair (some wonder if he is even old enough to grow any) but possesses striking bone white hair that he keeps cut short. His eyes are a pale grey-blue, almost the color of ice. Stark against his dark skin is a white birthmark on his right cheek, which strangely looks very similar to a scorpion. A shirt of strange looking interlocking rings hangs over his chest. On closer inspection, they seem to actually be made of chitin, somehow hardened and shaped to form a chain shirt. A long shaft of wood is strapped to his back, topped with what seems to be an enormous scorpion stinger.
Short History: Seven Deadly Stings was born under an auspicious sign, the same day the tribe’s wise woman prophesized a great protector would come. The fifth of nine children, he quickly was distinguished growing up, not only for the strange coloration of his hair and eyes, nor for the strange birthmark upon his right cheek, but for his deep wisdom in one so young, and his seemingly natural affinity to the spirit world.
Apprenticed under the tribe’s Shaman, Seven Deadly Stings learned the ways of the spirit world, as well as the ways of the desert scorpion. It seemed he was destined to replace the aging elder, and thus was a shock when Two Moons Rising, his teacher, received a vision from the spirit world.
“Seven Deadly Stings, it is my place to help in the raising and teaching of all the children of this tribe. Yet among them all, I have felt the closest bond to you. It saddens my heart then, to tell you what the Great Eagle has told me today.
Your destiny is not here with us. You must travel far to the west, beyond the edge of our homeland. Follow the stars in the sky until you come to a great ring of fire. Inside will perch one of the cities of the soft men. There you will find your destiny.”
Saddened but accepting of Two Moons Rising’s prophecy, Seven Deadly Stings left his tribe that day, setting aside his true name and adopting the mantle of Intari. Many weeks later, as he approached what he had learned from other travelers was the city of Cauldron, he looked into the sky. The Great Eagle may have sent him here, but only the Little Scorpion would see him safely through.
Advanced Look: At 3rd Intari would likely take either Augmented Healing or Spontaneous Healing (I’m not really sure whether he’d benefit from Spontaneous Healing or not, hence the uncertainty)

To all interested parties....
Just a quick heads-up that I'm going to be closing the submission process tomorrow night, and announcing the players chosen shortly thereafter.
If you're interested in this game, but haven't yet offered up a character, please do so soon. (Especially Jdvn1 and Lord_Raven88)
Thanks!

No, thank you! Well in that case I best pull the digit out eh. I'm going for something arcane, probably a straight up wizard, probably a halfling. I'll try and get him knocked over and submitted this evening. Hopefully I'll have some time this afternoon to work on his background and personality and can stat him up tonight. Is there anything we should know about the Shackled City and the adventure beofre we submit? Any little gems that might help inform our PC backgrounds?Krago o'the Mountain said:

Not really, no. The adventure campaign is set up from the premise that Cauldron is this remote and strange city, about which little is known. The adventurers are new to the place, having wandered there (either by design or by chance).

I can hold out until Saturday to see what D20Dazza and Jdvn1 come up with (along with any others who still wish to submit a character). Then I'll announce the five players...just in time to leave town for five days on a business trip. 
I might be able to find an internet connection while I'm away, though.
Didn't mean to be pushy, I'm just eager to play!
Thanks,
