The Hero of Mergovie OCC--[FULL]

[DarkMaster]

Doghead let me know when you are ready and I introduce Xavier

Its been a bit of a grotty week. Sorry.

I need to update his character sheet and get it up in the Rogue's Gallery, but other than that, I think we have covered everything.

His background notes are a bit thin, but I will try and get them fleshed out asap. I'm going to give him a few brothers and sisters just in case Ferrix wants to do a tie in at some point.

So basically, I'm ready.

Doghead, I took the leisure to add a bit more flavor to your character in the IC thread. If you saw him differently let me know and I will update the post.

I assumed that as a young noble he has no real life experience. He was a very good student (explaining his level) but never really earned XP the old adventuring traditional way.

 

[doghead]

DarkMaster, sounds about right. I do see him as being rather more a trained swordsman than experienced warrior. The only thing I saw differently was that his father had insisted on him spending some time in the field with the soldiers, as one of the soldiers, to some degree. At one point I was tossing up between endurance and negotiator. The dice decided endurance. So I figured he had spent a little time sleeping rough in armour, although there may not have been a great deal of fighting. I see his father as a bit of an old warrior, traditionalist and believer in 'tough love'.

 

[DarkMaster]

Ok, do you want me to change the IC thread ? I will take your input into consideration anyhow.

 

[DarkMaster]

Well Mergovie is a very militarized country so it's fairly frequent to see nobles in armor. Like the knights in medieval europe.

 

[doghead]

No, don't change it. The idea that Xavier was kept somewhat sheltered from the hardships has grown on me. It is something of a issue with him. Perhaps his brothers were given the 'tough love' treatment, but Xavier's father never saw Xavier as a soldier (he's not a whimp, but no tough guy either) and so sent him to the courts to build the familiy's influence there. Despite understanding his father's decision, Xavier always felt that his father saw him as less worthy than his brothers. Joining the martial Brotherhood of Heironeous was Xavier's act of rebellion.

Which suggests that he might be a tad prone to over-compensation.

Hey doghead. Did you get my email at Doghead whatever at Yahoo? If not, what is your email?

Silentspace, I'm not sure how Jasper would help with the book when he can't read it.

Sorry I've been quiet in the IC thread lately. I've been really busy helping with a wedding for the last few days, and Jasper's next post is looking to be another doozy like the one near the end of the first thread. I should have time to look everything up and write it on Sunday.

I never thought I'd be doing research for a pbp game.

Doghead, I like how thise guys is fleshing up.

Kangaxx, No problem, Ferrix also seems to be busy with finals and family, I will just slow down the posting a bit while things get back to normal. I also understand that with Christmas coming things might slow down.
