Actually I think they were more from a lack of sleep and to much medication (I hate summer colds! :mad: ) :)

At least I'm not the only one making a PC under the influence. :) Wish it were still summer here.

Again, sorry for the delay, but I have been busy with RL obligations. I'll try to finish up my character and have her posted tonight, if not than I'll have her posted no later than tomorrow evening.

I like the pretty colors, but it cuts into my weekends by making way too sleepy.

Trust me if I could switch I would. :D I have lived in Texas my whole life and never felt any love for the summers. (Especially since we just had a record-breaking heat wave just before Rita.) I am much better suited for cold climates. :D

Believe me, the novelty of freezing your extremities off for months on end gets old fast. ;)
 

Cold is good. Hot is bad.

I have a question...how would a vacuum-sealed jumpsuit or whatever work for a Sesheyan...I mean, they have wings. Can they wear that?

I agree....though I also have to agree with Samnell. After a while any weather pattern would get a little much.

Not sure about Sesheyan....that is going to take a ruling from the big cheese, I think.
 

Van, draft 2

Okay, I think I have things sorted out here. Fiddled around wih the skills, upping the medical component. I figure Van took the med tech program to sneak in more biology training.

There's only one thing really nonstandard here. I swapped out the signature microcomputer for the scientist profession and replaced it with a laser pistol. The costs are the same, and I figured it was a reasonable trade off professionally given his miltary background (and once again plays up his divided self - losing scientific equipment to the military requirements of his position). Let me know if that's a problem, or if anything else needs changing.

I don't know about that, I think I could get to like a Mediterranean or Pacific Northwest kind of climate, and those are less variable than what I have now. The less snow I see, the better.

Can't really comment on either, since I have no first hand experience. But you might be better off with the Mediterranean, since the whole north thing seems to lend to the snow you don't want. :D But there is always Arizona (they say it is a dry heat), but since I don't go for heat any way it is off my personal list. :\
