Noted, I'll change a few things around.

EDIT: Alright, I've made a few modifications while keeping the original for reference.

Here is my character sheet:

Spoiler: Original (click to show/hide)
Spoiler: Current (click to show/hide)

If there is anything wrong with it let me know and I will fix it.

A few specific things I'm unsure about:
The "Far Away Land" - Not sure of the empire of Hadria's knowledge of continents or countries outside their influence, if they don't have any/you don't want any characters coming from there, I'll just remove the element of a far away land and make the backstory more local. -Slightly Edited
The Length of the Biography - I have kept it a little short as to keep the character a little bit more open ended. If this is a problem I'll add more fluff/content to the biography. -Expanded
Not A Noble or Soldier at Start - If this is a problem I'll just expand the current back story to include how he becomes a noble/soldier.

The Prominence of Retainers in Antiquity - If anyone can enlighten me as to their existence/non-existence I'll change that bit. -  The Equivalent of the Roman Antiquity Era are Cliens

Smash the goblin's arms or legs.

TURN 43

Derm
"Right, that worked. Lets go!"

Onwards!
The other guards pick up the archer and place him inside the caravan. The merchant returns to the front of the covered wagon and reins in the horses as they set off on their merry way once more. As they travel a while longer, a town appears in the distance.

Juba Freedmen
Meditate to focus my mind and increase my control over my powers temporarily then tame the hell hound...... again.
[6] Juba sits and focuses, feeling more capable in general in his magic abilities, ((Level Up)) feeling newly invigorated Juba attempts to tame the hellhound, [1] and the hound begins to growl under it's breath. ((Well that was anticlimactic))

Xarius
.......

Whatever is necessary. Whatever is within my power. Leave this painfully lucky creature alone. Call for a guard.
Xarius stands and calls out to a guard, [6] almost immediately, a guard with his helmet covering his eyes bumbles around the corner and knocks his head on the wall before mumbling, "Wha- What is it?"

Falvich
Falvich will leave, and explore the city for fun.
Falvich exits the mages shop and explores the city, walking along the streets, [1] when suddenly, the grate he stepped on collapses [5] Falvich is able to catch himself though and is now hanging an unidentified distance above something...

Calenmiriel
((Just had to try this)

Attempt to mount the horse Legolas style, and then gain control.
Calenmiriel [4-1=3] is able to mount the horse, omitting any spectacular moves and struggles to gain control [4-1=3] she struggles to gain control but the horse suddenly bucks, [6 vs. 1] though she is able to hold on.

Atla
Continue to the gates. Be wary of guards, and try to be as inconspicuous as possible until you can duck into a public shop.
Atla heads over to the gates [3] when one of the guards calls down from the battlements, "What in god's name are you?"

Gweg Kenson
Attack bandit in front. Whichever is easier to hit.
[2+1=3 vs. 5] Gweg swings his greatsword at the first bandit but he ducks and stabs at Gweg's chest [5 vs. 3+1=4] [4 vs. 6+1+1=8] but Gweg deflects the shortsword with his shield [3+1=4 vs. 4-2=2] [5+1=6 vs. 5-2=3] seeing the opportunity of the bandit bent over beneath him, Gweg strikes him on the back of the neck with his shield and he flops to the ground. [2 vs. 3+1=4] The other bandit swings but Gweg merely steps out of the way.

Groz Talvor
...Continue with plan, I guess? Ready some magic shields to stop arrows and weapons around me.
Groz prepares a few [3] relatively weak magic wards, probably enough to stop 2 or 3 weak blows. Eventually Groz stops outside a large five-story building, moves the cart into the alley beside it and heads inside. [5] Groz notices a ladder in the same alleyway the cart is in.

Hmmmmm, I just checked my Path of Exile page, turns out I have two beta keys to give away so,

Path of Exile Beta x2

201
Nah, played it on Xbox 360 solo and co-op with my brother when it first came out, I guess it was a combination of deciding:
1. I shouldn't prevent someone else from winning it if they haven't played it.
2. I've won something so I figured I should remove something.
3. I haven't really researched the quality of fan-made maps as of yet so I'm not sure exactly how much replay value it would have if I got it again.

202

206
At least it isn't 6, :P.

TURN 42

Falvich
Falvich, now scarred will go back upstairs and loot the mage's body!
Falvich finds his way upstairs and checks the mage's corpse for anything that may be of use. [3+1=4] He finds a note and a small sack inside the robe, as well as a few vials of colorful liquids. The sack is sealed shut but there is nothing to keep it closed, perhaps it is an enchantment.

Juba Freedmen
Continue taming.
[4-1=3] [1-1=0] ((You're getting very unlucky)) Juba fails to tame the hellhound again.

Derm
Practice chainsaw based medicine
[6] He lowers the Arcane Chainsaw and......... ??? shears a long strip of cloth off of the archers tunic and covers the wound? I guess?

Xarius
'This is getting me nowhere!'
Try to find a blunt object. If that fails, pry one of the legs off the bed. Proceed to animate it. If that fails, simply beat him over the head with it.

((Well, it's do or die. If I fail those actions, it's a slow death by rape strangulation for Xarius.))
Xarius, unable to find any blunt object pulls at one of the legs of the bed [1] Pulling as hard as he can, his hands slip and he falls backward hitting his head on the stone floor. The other prisoner stares at him, quite clearly confused.

Calenmiriel
Follow the tracks quickly until I sight it on the horizon, if I reach it within this turn, check my back to make certain nobody is watching before enter the woods to approach and scout the wagon and its accompaniments. 
[6] Eventually Calenmiriel enters a desert, she can barely see the wagon on the horizon but it's there. She gets closer and the wagon seems to have stopped moving, suddenly a riderless horse comes racing towards her.

Atla
Approach it. Once I reach the outskirts, leave Atla behind and bury him in a shallow hole for safekeeping (unless golems are a common sight in this world, in which case i'll bring him along).
[4] Atla approaches the town, which seems to not be hostile at the moment, and buries Hans relatively nearby beside a signpost.

Gweg Kenson
Retreat some again, trying to separate them again.
[4] Gweg turns and runs off, he checks behind him:

Groz Talvor
"Very well, my testosteronized friend. Let's go, shall we?"
Proceed with plan.
The dwarf walks over to the smuggler's corpse and grabs the cloak, pulling it over his shoulders before heading off with the cart. Groz follows from behind.

(Was anyone here part of that MASSIVE battle in Nazamroth?  So sad I can't be its marquess anymore)
Yep, but keep in mind, the province isn't lost yet. With the Cagilan Empire and Talerium's forces combined, it will be possible to retake it.
