[QUOTE="TwistedMindInc, post: 3113127, member: 39574"] No way! A Ravenloft game? I've been wanting to run one/play in one for so long but could never get anyone to play along. Any chance you're still accepting applications? If so - I'll work on a character concept asap. If not, I'd like to go on an alternate list. :) EDIT: Character concept. ( I got bored and came up with one anyway!) Mara de'Marc - more commonly known as Mara the Marked. Fighter - 4th Background: The de'Marc's were just an unlucky lot. Where-ever they roamed, so did misfortune; for them, for their loved ones, for their friends. Some say it was an age old curse, other's place the blame on their ill fate. But no matter how you sliced it, nothing good came from being of their blood. Unless, of course, you somehow dodged the bullet. Like the youngest de'Marc did. Mara was always cunning and sly. She not only learned to walk, but to do so on water. In her family's eyes she was untouchable. Whatever Mara wanted - Mara got.
