[QUOTE="Lazlow, post: 3267851, member: 24242"] Rock on! Haven't been in a pbp game in a while, thanks for choosing me! Alrighty folks, what say we get our party history fleshed out? Looks like we can still go with the majority of the group having served together in the military, what with Padraig, Little Gil, Jaspar, and Gwennath all being veterans. From Dichotomy's suggestion in his background, Konstantine may have met these four while "serving" as an army captain at some point. Zagnak's background is a little different, though, as a sort of a loner druid. My earlier suggestion of Zagnak and Gil having come from the same town might still work, even though Zagnak left at a very young age. Or maybe they just became friends along the way, drawn together by their racial ties. Just my two cents. Any other ideas? As far as Little Gil goes, my idea for him is that he's skillful, quick-witted, and charming, even (for a half-orc), but just has no horse sense. He's much too curious for his own good, and when his attention is engaged by interesting/pretty/shiny things, he's fairly oblivious to anything else. He's good at getting himself into places and/or situations he shouldn't be without being noticed - it's the getting OUT that he's got problems with. This may be part of the reason he stayed in the military for longer than he might have wanted, just knowing that someone would always (usually?) be there to bail him out. (Maybe Padraig? Would a grizzled old vet feel sorry for a promising greenhorn that's too naive for his own good?) [/QUOTE]
