[QUOTE="Sparky, post: 1318147, member: 13681"] No criticism meant. And certainly not of Uriel - he's one of the most active, dedicated DMs hereabouts. Just meant to be good-natured ribbing. Guess I should make more liberal use of smilies. :) I meant to say this before, I'm happy to, and would actually rather, work our backgrounds together before the game kicks off... it'll make things easier for poor ol' Whistler certainly if the three remaining delinque--- er... folks are friends or purposful acquantainces rather than just a meta-gamed up party. And for me as a player too. And we can start up with more unity and tactical cohesion instead of sniffing eachother like strange dogs for several pages whilst we work out the pecking order. Though Semm might just continue doing that regardless. Unless, of course, us meeting each other is part of the RP you folks are interested in. Me, I think we're gonna need as much cohesion as possible to survive this place. :) For my part... I guess Whistler is The Face... in lands that obey The Law anyway. In combat he's no great shakes, though if I take the Master of Tactics or Art of War Auras we can engage in much more interesting combats... wouldn't mind helping out there. It seems like the save bonuses (and the crit confirmation bonus) wouldn't get used all that much, but things that boost skills checks on special combat actions that you yourselves can [i]choose[/i] to take seem like they would be much more useful... Never having seen a Marshall in action, I can't say how it really plays out. In my background I've left open for Uriel to exploit, who messed up his wings. And what happened to his celestial mother... I was thinking she was out of the picture, captured, dead or reprimanded and sent away. Any thoughts how a shiny-new Marshall would have hooked up with a group of miscreants like yourselves? [/QUOTE]
