Velmont said:I was presently looking at the others background. Norros have been happy to lives a normal life in Seawell. He would work hard during day, and then spend the night at some Inn. We might have become drinking friends in the Inn.
I think I'll detail more the years Norros has spent in Seawell. I'll raise the number of years he has been there too. He would have arrived here 5 years ago. He likes his life here, starting to forget his past and heritage.
Norros is the kind of man joyous and like talk and socialize, but will avouid as best as he can (and he is good at it) talking about his past.

I certainly could create some dark secrets for the town... but the problem is they would have nothing to do with the adventure that has has been set up. So while it could certainly be a logical reason for Khalia to be in Seawell, it still wouldn't explain why she would be one of eight volunteers to help out with a bunch of missing ships. That's the only reason why I thought the other character might have more promise.
Khalia's background right now of being down here to gather info for some "big mystery" her father sent her on, doesn't really lend itself to the problem and the adventure the town is facing... that's all I'm worried about. Now if you can create some direct connection between Khalia's mystery and someone or something in town directly... then her reasons for helping out with this problem of the ships might make a lot of sense. Perhaps she is here investigating the same ruins that Garrick is here for? And maybe one of the ships that was due in to arrive included some sensitive equipment that she needs to continue her work? Thus she has a direct connection to the town, and wanting to solve the problem with the missing ships (because she needs her equipment). This is just one possible idea that you can work with and will make me NEED to have Khalia in the party. If you can make me HAVE to have Khalia in this adventure because she just fits in too perfectly, then I'll have no choice but to select her. Hope this helps.
DEFCON 1 said:Velmont, I certainly understand why Norros would have arrived in town, but my big stumbling block right now is that I assume you'll want to continue to advance as a warlock but nothing in his current situation would lend itself to that happening. He's hiding out as a lowly dock worker and not doing anything to increase his magical ability so that people don't find out about his past. So I don't know how or why the character would risk that by volunteering for this mission and presumably using his warlock abilities. It just doesn't make sense if you get what I'm saying.
It's an awesome character, don't get me wrong. It's just that he doesn't really fit into the scenario as described, that's all. Warlock is a very hard class to fit into Seawell logically, which is why I'm so picky about it. But continue tweaking it by all means if you want to try to stay with the concept of a changeling warlock, or feel free to create someone totaly new if you'd like. It's up to you.

DEFCON 1 said:I'd also love to see more characters that are directly involved with the town, as most of the submissions thus far have been characters who grew up and did most of their work far away from Seawell and Q'barra, and then somehow have just sort of "arrived".
