[Angel Tarragon]

More players are needed. Come on folks, if you are in dire need of a game, please join in.

 

[Eluvan]

Hmmm. Colour me interested, this looks fun to me.

I might get some time to work on a character this evening/late tonight, but otherwise I'll look into it tomorrow afternoon most likely. I have a few ideas floating around, so... well, watch this space!

 

[tylermalan]

Feel like a noober for asking this, but d20 horror - I assume its d20 modern rules?

 

[Eluvan]

Alright, looks like I have a little time to work on a character now.

Oh, and Tyler - yeah, d20 Modern rules.

EDIT: Character Sheet now added in the sblock!

Description:

Erin stands about 5'4" and has a slim, willowy figure. She has long dark hair, and generally doesn't find time to do much with it except comb out the most obvious tangles. Her large brown eyes are always serene and full of friendly warmth, and she is seldom without a smile for anyone. She dresses without much attention to detail, and wears no jewelry except for a silver crucifix around her neck.

Background:

Erin was raised in a strongly religious environment. Her family could trace their ancestry back to Patrick and Katherine Fintan who first immigrated in 1848, at the height of the famine in Ireland. They always stressed their Irish Catholic origins, and Erin had the fear of God instilled in her at an early age. It's perhaps not surprising, then, that she went off the rails somewhat in her teens. To the infinite puzzlement and despair to her parents she started keeping the worst possible sort of company and looking for cheap thrills wherever she could get them. She dropped out of school and was regularly in trouble with the police, and her family didn't know how to get through to her.

In the end, she got through to herself. It was a slow process, but gradually she started to become disillusioned with the life she'd chosen. It felt empty to her, and she began to regard the people around her with pity rather than the thrill of admiration she used to feel. She still shuddered at the thought of her oppressive family life though, and so while she re-enroled and got her high school diploma, and then went on to college to major in theology, she never did go back home. The apartment block she lived in wasn't in what you would call a nice neighbourhood, but it never really bothered her. As her religious faith strengthened she went on to postgraduate studies in Theology, and increasingly came to feel that here, anyway, was where she could do the most good. She wanted to do good in the world, and she didn't see how she could do that from sheltered uptown security. Living among the disadvantaged, it's her aim to bring a little light into the life of everyone around her, and with a seemingly endless reserve of indomitable positivity, she may just succeed.

[LogicsFate]

I'd like to declare my interest and will make up a character soon

 

[Angel Tarragon]

I assume its d20 modern rules?

That is an affirmative.

 

[Spell]

is there room for another player?

 

[LogicsFate]

Unless you already have this concept saved for an NPC...

Tough hero, Chip Lippizaner

Old, crouchity, occasionaly fixes things

Not much is know of Chip's past. If anyone asked about it, he would probly suggest that they go to hell. Not that anyone has ever cared enough to ask. As for the present, he hates his job, and lothes the people under him, though he lacks the motivation or people skills to do anything else

Anyone younger than him is a fool, and anyone older is senile

6ft tall
balding
A perpetual five o'clock shadow

I'll flesh him out more, if you'd like

I make all IC rolls under the name LF
