Story:
Nabil was never a social man, but always quite intelligent. Being a minor noble of a minor house may have left him lacking in prestige, but it left him with little responsibility and opened up may great opportunities. He grew up talking to the other minor nobles and the servants, who took a liking to him. His family had a large library and he spent alot of time in it learning about a great variety of subjects. He also spent a lot of time outdoors in the woods.
He also was enamored by the family ritual called the Dance of the Blades which is a very complicated undertaking involving a sword and sash. The blade always flashing, the sash swiftly flowing, it was a beautiful sight. The best performers could use two swords, and he vowed to be counted among the best in his family.
When his family hit hard times, his learning experiences ended and he was forced into a mercenary troop to make money for his family. It was a very militant and orderly group, but it taught him some discipline. He never stopped practicing the Dance of the Blades however, and eventually accomplished his goal of using two swords. Having done that, he saw the potential it had in combat.
He used it to great effect with the mercenaries, however after a while, he went more freelance and ended up at the Hidden and Obvious Co. He next plans on perfecting his Dance of the Blades which having only begun, he knows he has a long way to go.
Appearance / Personality:
Nabil dresses is flowing clothes of deep dark colors like dark reds, blues and purples. They show off his grace and he believes it enhances the effectiveness of the Dance while in battle. He is generally quiet, only speaking up when he can contribute something substantial. When among close friends, he tends to open up more. He is also a very good listener and makes sure things told him on confidence stay thay way.

The Big Announcement!
And now, the moment you've all been waiting for.....
I'm going to go with the following player/characters:
Thanee as Jana Fyrehair
Voadam as Wollf Henger
Scotley as Rognvald Skarsgard
Bloodweaver1 as Inquisitor Caladan
Mista Collins as Armand Gutowz
I will list Falkus, orbitalfreak, Torillan, Nephtys, and KerlanRayne as alternates, with my regrets. It was a tough call.
Ultimately, I decided to go with a party with a lot of stealth capability (plus Caladan for healing/undead turning). This type of party should be a nice fit for the campaign.
Congrats to the players! Best of luck to the alts!
More details to come.....

So, players, I'm sure you're all asking 'When do we start?'
I need to get a Rogue's Gallery up and running, but that involves meticulously going over the character sheets for approval first. This tends to be a long process for me, as I am a bit...shall we say, 'particular' about these things (but definitely not obsessive, nosiree!)
Also, I want to work up some individualized hooks that will lead each character into the game's beginning.
With the holiday coming up, and the requisite family time included, I'm likely to need a week to get everything set up....unless....
Are there any experienced player/DMs with a reputation for a solid grasp of the rules who might wish to help me look over one's fellow PCs character sheets? Mmmmm....Thanee? Maybe? Please?
If you think you could spare them a glance, it would be oh so helpful in getting us started quicker. If not, it's okay. I'm just trying to pawn off some of my workload, as any good DM should.
At any rate, I shall begin work myself on getting things rolling, and I will keep you all updated as I progress.
Congratulations, welcome to.....'Vampires of Waterdeep'

Bloodweaver1,
One thing I can tell you right off is that we will need to change your patron deity from Pelor (a Greyhawk deity) to a deity from the Forgotten Realms. The one that springs most readily to mind is Lathander the Morning Lord. His portfolio is similar to Pelor's and very much in keeping with the spirit of the Radiant Servant prestige class.
Also, if Caladan is a part of the church of Lathander it pretty much gives me a built-in hook to get him into the action.
Let me know what you think....
