I'd love to join. Here's Thorg the Pious!
Appearance: Thorg, like most half-orcs in polite company, looks brutish and uneducated. He hunches slightly. His dark, greasy hair hangs loosely. He has an unfortunate underbite, making his tusks stick out a bit more prominently, and his thick lower lip closes over his upper lip. His eyebrows are bushy, and almost seem to get in the way of his eyes.
However, there is a sparkle in his eye not commonly seen among other half-orcs. He looks around his world in wonder and bemusement. He smiles often, and there is a sort of calm in the smile. His clothing and armor are kept clean, and he doesn’t smell. He always listens, and always watches—even if he looks like he has no idea what’s going on.
Personality: Thorg is dumb. There’s no getting around that, and it’s one of the first things people notice about him. He doesn’t get things half the time, and he speaks very simply. Still, there is a strong sense of inner peace about him. He knows what he is, and he is happy with that. He like to see people happy around him, and laughs often. Thorg is always willing to lend a hand, a strong shoulder, or a quiet companion.
This doesn’t mean that he is a pushover, though, much to the chagrin of many a rogue. He has no qualms about using force when he must, and he is always willing to defend the innocent from harm. He may seem like an easy mark, but he isn’t easily tricked.
Background: Mulgrave, a priest at a rural temple found Thorg at the temple’s front steps, as a baby, abandoned in a crude basket. Attached to the basket was a note, with an unsteady scrawl: “MEE THORG NEED HELP!” Despite the surprise of the half-orc in the basket, the priest took in the baby as Pelor would want.
Thorg grew up in Mulgrave’s care, soon helping him around the temple with chores. There were the standard insults that any half-orc child endures in a human world, but Thorg seemed to pay no attention to them. Indeed, he proved to be simple enough that he didn’t seem to pay much attention to anything. He showed no talent for mathematics, pathetic capacity for any but the most menial tasks, and ironically, little interest in sport, as well.
The one thing that interested him, though, was the stories of Pelor. Thorg would sit at rapt attention during Mulgrave’s sermons. He would ask for bedtime stories about the saints and their conquests over evil. He would act out the passion plays of Pelor in the courtyard, and made dolls of many saints. Over time, it became clear that his interest in Pelor was his calling. He would join Mulgrave in helping the poor and infirm, sweeping up their cabins and delivering food as needed. He would repeat the stories of Pelor to anyone who would listen. When Thorg started magically filling people’s water jugs, saying “See? Pelor will always give you what you need,” Mulgrave knew it was time for Thorg to spread his own special version of the message of the Sun.
Thorg is simple, true. Yet many times, it is good to live simply.

To give fair warning for my characters consideration, I'm going to be travelling for three weeks from 28th August this year, and internet access might be a little sporadic.
Hopefully this won't be too big a problem as I'm very interested in playing this one. Worst way if I can't get online then hopefully he can be NPC'd for this time if he's picked. If it is going to be an issue though, please don't consider him.
Just wanted to give you fair warning for when you're considering the characters.

Just stumbled upon this recruitment a few moments ago while looking for a new game. I'm actually on my way to bed, but wanted to throw an idea at you and then I'm going to do up a character sheet and what-not. I'm thinking of playing a female Shifter (Cat) Paladin of Sharess. Don't see that every day, do yah?
