[QUOTE="Chaosmancer, post: 7925996, member: 6801228"] Honestly, thank you for clearing up the confusion. I do tend to forget that not everyone on here is a native english speaker and some of the idioms come across differently. It honestly makes me feel a lot better to know that was just confusion on your actual intention. I agree with this, and I tend to write fairly robust backgrounds. This particular DM I was playing with had no interest in backgrounds or even our characters to a degree. First session we were teleported to a place outside of time and space and given free run of it to fight anything there. But, it was fun to have the personality of Sir Kalten and to play that sort of concept. And I definetly agree, fitting a character in mid-game is so difficult. They really almost can't have any adventure hooks in them, because the party usually has so much going on by that point. Got to be slimmed down so you can slot in with minimal fuss [/QUOTE]
