My problem just happened to happen when enworld started messing up. As I told Chris I was having problems with alot of other websites that I normally go to all the time, and I knew for a fact that those websites weren't having problems (when was the last time fileplanet went down? heh).So a drive error scan, defrag, disk cleanup, and an uninstall and reinstall of internet explorer (all within the same night too! having to drink coffee to stay up for EQ tends to make you hyper at 4am in the morning...) later and all the websites (including this one if you couldn't guess) I was having problems with are working!ok so the story, nothing fancy just mild background and a reason for him being in the town:--------------------I dont know why i'm here. I was told to see the world, that my magic was too wild and I needed to experience life to get a handle on it, but why would they send me to such a small pathetic town. The port town is nothing near what one of my status is used to, coming from the sorceror's guild to this is just sad. I have got to find some sort of work that will get me out of here as soon as I can."So what do you think of the town Carin?" Kaze snickered asking his hawk familiar."rawk!" The hawk responded none too pleased."Yes, I agree, doesn't look comfortable at all does it? we'll have to look around and try to find the best inn we can. Tomorrow we'll look for the man our master told us to meet."As Carin and I walked to the inn I remembered how I got here. It had been about  8 months ago, I had been practicing one of my new spells on a sparring sorceror, I had let all my anger flow in to the spell and it went wild. The other sorceror had been blown through the wall and spent a week in recovery at the local cleric guild, the spell had also back fired on me and cut me down the side of my face, just barely missing my eye.The masters had said I was too wild to be a sorceror, that they couldn't help me until I learned to control my magic more. I had spent all my life at the sorceror's guild studying to become the best. The council of the school had decided I was too naive to the world and that if I saw more of it that would make me learn to control my magic....truthfully they didn't know if they could control me and wanted me as far away from their school as possible.Shortly after I left my master sent me a letter saying to find a certain group of adventurers. He said I would know them when I saw them, how is that for vague? so I have spent the last 7 months in four different towns looking for this group, today I arrived in this port town by boat....--------------------Well thats it for the moment, i'll post some more later, kinda realized about half way that I didn't have NEARLY enough information to really do much with the story (as I dont know how we're meeting...who we're meeting...what the name of the town is...etc etc etc) so any of this can be revised at any time to fit the first post of the campaign.Also I know alot/most of familiars talk themselves, but unless anyone objects I was wondering if my hawk could just speak....hawkish and I am able to understand him due to the bond of sorceror and familiar.umm...had some more questions but forgot them over the course of writing, so if I remember i'll ask them.- Clayton</blockquote>
