D&D setup thread – game 2 (Mediaeval English background)

What Exit’s Druid has been sent out and I’m working on NAF1138’s Cleric now.

Paladud, Wolfman, ArrMatey! and Little Plastic Ninja: do you need any more info?
Do send a description of your character, plus stats, weapons and NWP’s.
(If you’re not sure, just say roughly what you want and I’ll supply the nearest equivalent.)

Fluiddruid, I’m sorry I didn’t give full descriptions of the NWPs. (The file got corrupted in a crash.) I’ve got some holiday time coming up and will try to type them all out.
When those descriptions are published, players are welcome to change their character’s NWP’s.

Party:

Malacandra Illusionist / Thief (Gnome)
Fluiddruid Fighter (Lizardman)
What Exit? Druid (Human)

NAF1138 Cleric (Human)

Paladud Paladin (Human)
**Wolfman ** Ocean Barbarian (Human)
ArrMatey! Magic User?
Little Plastic Ninja Ranger?

appleciders is our standby (if he wants)

Are you sure?

I got two Emails from you, a question and a nevermind. I did not get one with an attachment.

Sorry about that. :o

I can only say that BT recently ‘upgraded’ my e-mail and that in trying to avoid the incessant advertisements and use the new system, your character got left behind. :eek:

I’ve sent it again…

Sounds good. If you’re looking to procrastinate or something, I’ll probably try out your Warrior Monk, if you feel like rolling up stats.

The characters are getting successively quicker to do, so I will be happy to roll up a reserve for you (once I’ve done the others).

Bung me a history of how a wandering Monk with unusual combat skills and rumoured mystical powers (both learnt in the Orient) has turned up in the middle of the English countryside and I’ll send you a character.

I have now got both information from both Wolfman and ArrMatey!, their characters have joined the processing queue. :slight_smile:

I have sent **NAF1138 ** his Cleric and am starting on **Wolfman’**s Ocean Barbarian.

ArrMatey!'s MU is next. (There goes the weekend!)

Still waiting for a character description from Paladud and Little Plastic Ninja

Wolfman’s Ocean Barbarian is done and I will tackle** ArrMatey!**'s next.

Still nothing from Paladud or Little Plastic Ninja.

I’ll probably send round a group e-mail once ** ArrMatey!** is sent.
We could certainly start with just these characters:

Malacandra Illusionist / Thief (Gnome)
Fluiddruid Fighter (Lizardman)
What Exit? Druid (Human)
NAF1138 Cleric (Human)
Wolfman Ocean Barbarian (Human)
ArrMatey! Magic User (Human)

Hulgfar looks up, glances around the room, subtley nods his acknowledgement, then gets back to work on his huge tankard of ale and enormous platter of really stinky herring

Paladud’s Paladin has checked in. :cool:
If all goes to plan, both the MU and the Paladin should be ready today…

“Hey, is someone eating herring in here, or did a herring eat them and sick them up again?”

The speaker is a small unprepossessing gnome who is chewing on the stem of a short curly pipe that appears to have been stoked with some very old compost, in between humming a little ditty that is tuneless and repetitive enough to be really annoying, and not quite quiet enough to be on the edge of hearing.

And that’s on a good day, folks! :eek:

I can hear the song now.

“I know a song that’ll get on your nerves, get on your nerves, get on your nerves
I know a song that’ll get on your nerves, get on your nerves, get on your nerves
I know a song that’ll get on your nerves, get on your nerves, get on your nerves
I know a song that’ll get on your nerves, get on your nerves, get on your nerves
I know a song that’ll get on your nerves, get on your nerves, get on your nerves
I know a song that’ll get on your nerves, get on your nerves, get on your nerves”

The MU has been sent; the Paladin is next…

Allow me to introduce myself.

I am **Cullen MacLeod of Skye ** wears the Green Tartan Kilt of his clan and is proud of his heritage growing up in the presence of the Am Bratach Sith or The Fairy Flag of the clan MacLeod. His family is renown for their friendship to the Elves, Faerie Folk, The Good Folk and animals. Cullen is a tall Scott, standing 6’2” and weighing a respectable 220 lbs. He is ginger haired but not so fair as a true ginger. He is a youthful 26 and is looking to learn more of the Faerie Rings and the ‘Ley’ of the Land. He is not ashamed to admit he hugs trees and has hopes of saving more of the old woods from those humans who fail to respect nature. He is a believer in plant a tree wherever you cut one down and kill no animal you don’t need for food.

He comes from a large family and is one of innumerable great nephews of the MacLeod Chieftain. His immediate family numbers 10 and he is in the middle of it and would be an unnoteworthy son if not for the skill he showed young with herbs and animals and getting accepted for Druid training.

I have several animal friends. A loyal Bloodhound, a Kestrel & a Weasel

I am skilled in Herbalism, Agriculture, Ancient History, Spellcraft, Mandolin & First Aid.
Please note: I forgot the Highlander use of MacLeod as a name. I chose the name base on my visit to the Isle of Skye and my fascination with the Am Bratach Sith.

It sounds even better in Gnomish. :smiley:

“Sorry, skirt-man, do you think you could say all that again? I’m afraid I wasn’t really listening.”

Shudders

A friend of mine sings it occasionally when he wants to portray an irritating NPC. Fortunately he doesn’t know Gnomish.

What Exit, a Scot has only one “t” in his nationality. Just so that you know in future. :wink:

Aye, I know that , I was just testing you.

Damn typos, I really do know that, it slipped past me. :frowning:

In my first draft I also had Good People instead of Good Folk. At least it wasn’t Goodfellows or even Goodfellas.

The Paladin has been sent; character backstories to follow tomorrow…

You are most welcome to introduce your characters here. Partly for the interest*, and partly to save repeating in the main game thread.

Please note that you will not necessarily all be standing together when the adventure starts…

*especially for the spectators :smiley:

If you’re nice to the Druid, he could set your song to music :eek: and accompany you on his Mandolin. :cool:
