Bay 12 Games Forum

Just made my character page on wiki. Currently under construction.

Very interesting. Looks like our characters will be more involved...Eventually

ok, thats our form NO MORE SUGGESTIONS ON EPIC DRAGON FORM PLEASE. will update much later...

((on the other hand, imagining a demon pigeon trying to rule the world makes up for any OPness or UPness.))

Ashton: There is a post wayyyy back (and maybe edited into the OP) about magic and stuff. You should read it, and then post a detailed list of your powers, abilities, backstory, etc. for the Iituem and the Co-GMs (myself and Ghazkull) to vote on/balance (with the input of the other players, usually). We're very wary of supernatural characters, and so they need to be given the OK before they can be played. In some instances they can be pretty fun, the recent Shadeling incursions into the Highlands are an example of that, but in many situations they have far too much room for abuse or other shenanigans that detract from the game as a whole.

Brackets are used for Out Of Character speech. I sometimes use them, sometimes I just denote OOC: and then separate from IC with a line. Other people use just, like, just () or [] or whatever. You can do whatever you want in that regard, for the most part.

It's nice to wake up to around 10 pages of posts here again. Replies and rolls in a little bit.

OOC:

Well I looked through the first 13 pages and the OP but couldn't find the post on magic you mentioned but here's the character details you asked for:

Backstory
A fledgling flame demon was summoned to the surface in 304b by a training magician, due to a flaw in the spell Excalibur (The demon) escaped after killing the young wizard, his mentor tracked the demon and after three weeks found the demon and to render him weak trapped him in the body of a pigeon which caused Excalibur to lose all his magical abilities and physical strength, just before escaping the pigeon pecked out the wizards eyes, this would become his signature move.

Powers
Immune to aging
This is just so the demon doesn't drop dead after old age way to soon in the game.

Abilities
Writing
Excalibur quickly worked out how to communicate through writing, hence he always has tied to his legs paper and a stick of charcoal.
Flight
As a pigeon Excalibur can fly moving from place to place quickly and also escape battle normally unless injured.
Beak
With practice Excalibur has become fairly nimble with his beak, he can can tie knots and carry small objects around with him. His crafting ability extends as far as simple rope mechanisms though is limited by his weak physical strength.

((It dosen't seem too OP but Excalibur was mentioned in adwarf's OP character. It was a sword back then. I really don't have many problems with your character, except for being a demon. That seems overpowering even if its lacking in power. Also I don't see how a pigeon's going to converse with anyone else. Course I'm not the GM so just go ignore me.))

Locanil paced the archives. Not enough time and too much work. There had been little progress on the histories and the deadline was not too far away. Even if they worked everyday, all night and day, without breaks Locanil doubted that the commission could be completed in the time allocated. Never the less, even if they did fail to do the task in time, they would still complete it, without pay. These histories would go on to educate hundreds, perhaps even thousands...Mere money is not something that should block the way to enlightenment...

Action- Work on the commission.

((He might have though. Just get him to post his character and background. Perhaps he's changed.))
