[QUOTE="theskyfullofdust, post: 4913021, member: 60048"] Hello all :) Though it about time I tried my hand at a story hour, and since I have recently started a new campaign (3.5 for this one) what better time to try. Firstly, the player characters (all first level); the "speech" bits are what the players themselves sent me when we were creating the characters, which were also shown to the other players. The other two are more secretive and therefore shorter. [LIST] [*][B]Kairee Ravencroft[/B], female human, fighter L1 [Alister's] Amazonian-type, but more scout than warrior. Comes from a dragon-worshipping group, dedicated to hunting down evil dragons. [*][B]Richard Sherman[/B], cleric L1 [Jonny's] "He's big, slow, very loud, heavily armed and fanatically devoted to the glory of Cahan. Likes nothing more than putting a sword to the forces of chaos in the name of his God. If he was in a movie, Brian Blessed would probably get the part." [*][B]Nix[/B], kobold wu jen (wizard) L1 [Doug's] Looking for the adventuring group that slew his 'mother' and his tribe (a red dragon and the kobolds that catered to its needs). [*][B]Fischer[/B], Fighter L1 [Mark's] "A usually quiet youth (excepting too much rum!) - muscles built by hauling in catch nets, accuracy with weapons due to hunting the beasts of the sea and shallows. His main trade has grown boring to him as he has only sailed local shores between mainland and tide breakers . He is thankful for Cerinwe's blessing at night and Lucas warmth and good weather by day. Though when the storms raised by Cahans mighty roar and whim he is grateful for to wait it out on good motherand Dairine's solid embrace.
