Then that's what I'll do. I'll make him up when I get home today.Shawnacy said:

And here he is....Gimble Twinkletoes!
Interesting, Dave. This is gonna be an oddball game. I'm hoping we can tie our characters' backgrounds together a bit. So far I'm the only townie.
I've attached my character sheet, in case anyone's interesting.

Here is Denan Silverwood
I'm working on something more detailed as a background, but this far...
He was born in the town of Termalaine to an animal rancher (whatever livestock animal is common in the north) and was to be raised as such until it was discovered that he had talent in the arcane arts. A local swordmage was looking for children with the talent to train as the town's defense against attacks. There were only two students found. Denan and another child named Stephan. As they grew up they often were made to spar against each other, and to Stephan that meant they were rivals. When their master was killed, and therefore leaving no buffer between the boys, Stephan made it clear he did not need Denan there to protect the town. Denan decided to leave instead of pursue a violent "counter-argument."

Hey, having a bard could be interesting.
Plus, he has ghost sound. What more do we need?

Oh I've got nothing against bards. I think they updated them enough in 4th edition that they are just as useful as any other Leader class. But that also poses a big question as we already have a Cleric in party.escushion said:
I actually hesitated when writing the joke about Dave playing Gimble Twinkletoes. I thought that he might carry the joke further by actually threatening to play it. But then I just decided he'd laugh at the joke and make a more serious decision when he got around to it.
I don't knows him vewy well do I?
Well, what do we need that we're in deficit of? We need... a defender?
My sheet has changed so I have 1 less speed and 2 more AC, but otherwise unchanged, so I won't upload the new one.
If he's serious about the character and will role play him accordingly, then there's no problem. He'll have to accept that this character will be creation week after week and month after month. So people should be selecting their characters carefully. I still require a character background.
Still waiting on Julie and James.

She says tonight or tomorrow.
Is James called Deadpool on Steam or is this a different friend of Shawnacy's?

Would you guys mind terribly if I sat in and watched/listened every now and then? I'm curious to see how the game goes. I won't talk or touch anything.
Do not talk ever. Not even in our Thursday game.
Do not listen ever. Not even in our Thursday game.

Won't be much of a change, amiright? 
Currently we have :
- Cleric (Leader)
- Bard (Leader)
- Swordmage (Defender)
- Warlock (Striker)
We're still waiting on our 5th who hasn't responded to any attempts of contact since last week so we'll probably have to make a decision on that soon. The party currently is in dire need of a controller. I'll keep looking for a 5th player. I've gotten a few people who were interesting but there are "ifs" involved to their consistent ability to be there every week. If not, we can play with 4 but I'd like to avoid that.

We could always run into someone new.
BTW, I noticed that the dates you mention are each Wednesdays even though the post says Tuesdays. I was under the impression we were playing on Tuesdays (thus Tuesday the 14th would be the start), but I wanted to make sure.

Haha, three leader classes. This will be interesting.
Finally! Welcome aboard.Jackabite said:

Everyone, in regards to your player choices on classes... 3 leaders is somewhat of an overkill...I'd really like to see 1 controller. Would anyone reconsider who isn't a cleric? (sorry, I have already worked on your storyline darryl
) If not, we'll make due but enjoy minion HELL.On a last note, if I do not have your character details as well as their backgrounds by Weds morning, unfortunately, your character may not be interactive in the story at first as I need some time to come up with storylines that will gel with... your EPIC adventure. Thus with this, I need your backgrounds and send me your character sheets by PM, ASAP.

A little map of your starting point I came up with.
Dougan's Hole
Dougan's Hole, one of the Ten Towns of Icewind Dale mostly inhabited by humans with a small number of elves, half-elves and halfings was named so because the town is simply... a mud-hole in the ground. Situated between a sloping hill and the Redwater lake and first colonized by a man called Dougan, the site was a place where a great bloody battle took place many generations ago, thus why the lake has been graced with that name. When the snow melts in the summer, it reveals a knee-high layer of mud which every resident have to wade through, therefore most people living in this town hate the summer-months. Luckily for them... or perhaps not, winter has arrived and it is the harshest winter season in over two generations. On top of this the town has been having dangerous problems as of late with murders happening in the night and stolen supplies disappearing from the docks. The local militia has been actively patrolling but haven't been able to keep these events from happening. The townsfolk are scared and are mostly forced to stay home to due martial law from the town militia captain. Dougan's hole has sent out pleas of help far and wide for other towns to help them and adventurers to play the part of heroes.
Woot! Can't wait.
Julie had an accident at work, so she'll be laid up for the week. Whether the free time will bring her to getting you any character background, we'll see.

.Too many leaders, huh? I guess my Gnome Bard will be going away. Time to tank it up.
You don't want a tank? Fine. I'll make a controller. Not sure what race/class but I'll make one.
Oh you'll get variety. Oh yes you will. MWAHAHAHAHA!!
