board Story
I was wondering if anyone would be interested in creating a board story. Im looking for around 5-7 party members.
Salem
here is my character:
name - Salem Val'dor
race - elven
gender - male
age - 48
eyes - most interesting, instead of rounded pupils his are slits.
skin - cooper tone
hair - short curly dirty blonde
height - 6,5
weight - 170
languages - elvish/english
alignment - chaotic good
patron deity - follows no god
class - sorcerer
level - 6
equipment - usually carries a sling and quarter staff, and is capable of weilding both effectivly. Wears a black hooded robe.
personality - Haveing the heart of an adventurer, Salem has always found himself on one quest or another; most of the time he ventures off. by himself being not very trustworthy of other people. His soul is of pure magic, and has always considered himself gifted to be able to cast it. He has a warm personality that exsudes self-confidence, and having a rather fruitfull imagination Salem often daydreams about nothing inparicular. He rarly shows bad judgment but on occation his lack of self-discipline will appear.
History - One day in particular stand out vividly in Salem's mind.
Salem was hunting orcs that we raiding the area with his father and two other elves(Ishtar a female bounty around his age and Raaguvar a highly skilled male ranger). It was early in the day, the sun was just rising bathing the sky in a red glow, when they had met up with the orcs. The orc ranks had been surprisingly reenforced but the Elven party was confident and engage the enemy.
Salem's father, a kensia, and the bounty hunter attacked the orcs head on while Salem held back with the ranger. He fired his first spell, a missile magic, into the center of the enemy group injuring multiple orcs; to his right the ranger was firing a barage or arrows at the closest targets avaliable.
The bounty hunter was having a relativly easy time against the poorly armed orcs but she could see Salem's father was in trouble, his left arm that was limp at his side and looked to be broken. She tryed to get to him but the orcs kept cutting her off; the orcs had circled Salem's father and a cowardly orc put a blade through his back.
Salem heard the female elf's crys and then he saw his father fall. The ranger ran past him, grabbing a dead orcs sword from the ground, he mowed down the five remaining orcs. Salem arriving at his father's side looked in to his eyes and saw no life, Salem cryed.
Salem now wanders from place to place always on the look out for his most hated enemy, orc.

here's mine:
name: Kitty Johannson
race: human
gender: female
age: 18
eyes: pale blue
skin:fair skin, slightly tan
hair: short, straight, red
height: 5,8
weight: 130
languages: English
alignment: true neutral
patron deity: Silvanus
class: druid
level: 5
equipment: sling, scimitar, and staff
personality: She is fairly quiet. It is often rather hard to get her to talk. But once you gain her trust, her laughter and speech will come more easily. Once she trusts someone, she will never let them down, no matter the cost. She sometimes wishes that she had another companion, not one like her animal companion, but a human/huminoid one, one who she could love without fear of losing them.
history: Kitty grew up in a little village nestled in the mountains of the Spine of the World. She is rather used to the coldness of the region. She lived in that village until she was 16, with no dreams other thana to become a housewife and raise a family. But on one fateful day a group of raiders came and destroyed her village. Kitty was the sole survival. Barely alive, and half crazed with grief, she fled south into warmer lands. Some say that the only things that keep her from going mad completely are her connections with the earth, her patron god, and her animal companion, the wolf Phraen. But it is known that while she only trusts a few, she will help anyone who is in need.
I'm not sure how often I'll post, but I'll try to post when I can.

I wanted to change my sig, but I can't think of anything to change it to 
Thanks for joining werebeargoddess, great character post.
I'm hoping to get at least two more people to take part before starting.
If you have any ideas on how the story will actually be started, feel free to share. I have alot of things on the go and haven't had time to sit down and think about it in any great detail.
How many times you will be able to post will depend on when the other writters (thats if we get any) get their parts of the story in.
I'm kind of debating on wether we should have someone to regulate what is being posted in the story. This might be achieved by haveing the writters email their parts to the regulator to be viewed and if the parts flow with the storyline then they will be posted. What are your thoughts on this?

name - Duncan E'alith
race - Half-elf
gender - male
age - 21
eyes - green
skin - pale
hair - long and brown, usually in a ponytail
height - 186 cm
weight - 83 kilograms
languages - Human, (english) Elven and Dwarven
alignment - Chaotic Good
patron deity - no deity
class - dual classed Wild Mage 1 \ Kensai 5
level - 1\5
equipment - a single katana (fist if needed)
spells: Nahal's Reckless Dweomer ( Duncan may only cast this if he feels it is the groups only choice)
STR: 17
DEX 18
CON 17
INT 15
WIS 12
CHA 10 (he doesn't talk too much with strangers, so people usually have a bad first impression of him)
Pesonality: Since Duncan has seen the effects of intense emotions, he tries to keep himself above these things. He will help anybody who needs it, but only out of a feeling of rightousness. He keeps repeating to himself that he will never fall in love and submit to this strong emotion, but he secretly misses someone to love and care for. He will try deny these thougts by showing a certain amount of arrogance to anyone who shows alot of feelings.(for example a newly wed couple) However, he will not be able to keep this up forever as each expression of love he sees, enchances his longing for a loved one.
Special ability: immune to fear and berserk (seeing the effects of his own fear, and his' parents anger. Duncan has been able to train himself to ignore these feelings)
EDIT: Duncan may not learn any new spells
Biography:
Duncan was the offspring of the two adventurers, Ignis E'alith (elven female sorcerer) and Tarnac. (human male barbarian) They were living in a cottage up by the mountains, not to far from the dwarven fortress of Goldhall.
Life was good. Duncan was learning both of the ways of the warrior and the art of magic.
One winter morning, he was taking a stroll around the cottage when he came upon a lone winter wolf.
Panicking, he casted a spell instinctivly. To his horror, the spell summoned a demon from the lower hells!
When his parents heard his scream, the rushed to him, only to find him cornered by the biggest tanar'i demon they had ever seen. Without hesitation, Tarnac threw himself at the demon, drawing upon his barbarian rage to asset him, but without his gear, he was unable to do much.
Ignis casted a protection spell on Duncan, but just as she was about to cast the same spell on Tarnac, the demon slashed across his chest, ripping open his chest, and spilling his guts.
Infuriated by her lover's death, Ignis forgot all about spellcasting. She leaped at the demons back, clawing and hitting the massive beast. When the demon managed to shake her off; he drove his great claw straight trough her stomach and killed her outright
Being saved by his parents' deaths, and his mother's protection spell, Duncan escaped the demon. He ran untill he reached the dwarven fortress of Goldhall. There he swore never to use magic again.
In the time he lived in Goldhall, he met the famous swordsman Yamamoto from the lands of Kara-Tur. He taught Duncan in the arts of the Katana. However, Duncan would never use armor, lest he be as dependent on his gear as his father was, and thus he trained in hand to hand combat as well.
But Duncan never felt at home in Goldhall, so he left the shelter of the dwarves in favour of the wastes. He felt he had to honour his parents by making his way in the world as they had once done...
If you think his special abilities are overpowered, I can change them, however I think they fit his story well.
I'll try to post as much as possible, but I have a hard week ahead of me (several tests) but I'll be as active as I can.
EDIT2: My friend drew a picture of Duncan for me !!!!! (Takk Jesper!)

Asriel, your character's special abilities are not overly powerful and therefore accepted. Your character post was very well written and fine detailed, thankyou for joining.
Do not think in anyway you will be pressured in writting a part if you are busy, there are more important things in life.
Writters will be on a turn based system, assureing an equal amount of parts for everyone. But if someone is busy and doesn't think they will have time then their turn will be skipped. They will be granted an extra part at a later date if they so desire.

Right-O then
So we now have a lvl 6 sorcerer, a lvl 5 druid and a lvl 5 kensai (I prefer to call him that, as he only knows one spell, and refuses cast it)
I am feeling an epic adventure in the making all we need now are some more people, and we'll be set
btw, added the fact that Duncan cannot learn any new spells

Right, I've changed a bit about my character. It makes more since that she worship Sylvanus, seeing she is a druid and Sylvanus is the god of the forest (correct me if I'm wrong about that). And saying that she is from the Spine of the World fits in better as well.

"My Name is Gladiator"
Hi all, me again, from the BioWare forums. Please forgive any spelling errors, I write this hastily because the <insert murderous swearword here> forum has logged me out and I write this over AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Name: Stanislav
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Alignment: Lawful Good
Class: Slave-Gladiator (Fighter Kit)
Height: 7'0" (213 cm)
Weight: 400 lbs (181 kg)
Age: 16 / 18 in real life, but I like to be the youngest, though at this point in the year, the 18-year old lady on the first page is likely older.
STR: 19 / Large People, Strong build
DEX: 18 / Fast in the arena
CON: 19 / Large people, tough build
INT: 11 / Slave from infancy, never educated
WIS: 12 / Young, a bit aggressive
CHA: 16 / Crowd loves me
Languages: English (I'm quadrilingual in real life, but circumstances demand that I limit my guy's intellectual abilities)
Skin: Tan, injuries and scar all over the place, but I am far from hideous (there are some lines I will not cross )
Eyes: Dark
Hair: Dark Brown, almost black, short, straight
Build: Heavy, dense, powerful (I'm a warrior after all)
Note: Cannot yet read, please teach me.
Story: Born far north, in a farming community, I was captured at 3 by a raiding party, and enslaved. I became a gladiator at 6, fighting children, small animals, and eventually men at 10. My people were big, so I was as big as a small man at 10. my 2 Gladii are like Second nature to me. I love Lions, and strive to fight as fiercely as they do.
Code of Honor: Never kill unless I have to (Opponent is malicious, evil, insane). I was flogged and beaten for sparing opponents, and opponents were executed regardless.
Women: Women gladiators were rare, as they were quick and agile, but died quickly against the larger gladiators. Our proprietor abandoned the practice of woman gladiators. As such, women are a novelty to me. Let the DM do with this as he/she wishes.
Equipment:
2 Gladii, 1d10+2 dmg, +1 THAC0
Armor with Lion decoration, AC 7
Bracers, AC +1
Leather boots
Helmet
Book of Gladius enchantment salvaged from village. Use later.
Setting: If BG2, then Copper coronet slave revolt. Else, either liberated by party, or free to begin with. Up to DM.

A little about my Gladiator Kit
I have just written my first little MOD: The Gladiator Kit, using Westley Weimers (Thanks! ) WeiDU program, and Ghreyfain's (Thanks! ) Tutorial.
Here is the Description:
GLADIATOR: The Gladiator is an expert fighter. The sword is his life, and he receives many advantages to better wield it. However, as a melee combattant, his ranged skills are absent, and as a slave, he receives a penalty to mental abilities.
The Gladiator may only be of Good, Lawful Neutral, and Chaotic Neutral alignments
Advantages:
- Bonus -3 to THAC0
- Bonus -2 to AC
- May use 'enrage' ability once per day per 3 levels. The enraged state lasts for 60 seconds.
- While enraged: + 2 to hit, +2 damage, -2 AC
- While enraged: immune to Charm, Hold, Fear, Maze, Imprisonment, Stun and Sleep.
- While enraged: gains 15 hit points. These hit points are temporary, and are taken away at the end of the berserk spree, possibly killing the Gladiator.
- STR, DEX, CON, and CHA can be raised to 19
Level 5:
- Bonus -1 to THAC0, +1 Damage for every 5 subsequent levels
Level 10:
- Bonus +1 to STR, +1 to CON, -1 to THAC0 (also at 25, 40, and 50)
- War Cry (also at 11 and 12)
Level 15:
- 10% Physical Resistances
- 10% Magic Resistance
- Immune to Poison
- Whirlwind Attack (also at 16 and 17)
- Critical Strike (also at 16 and 17)
Level 17:
- Deathblow (also at 18 and 19)
- Smite (also at 18 and 19)
Level 20:
- 5% Physical Resistances for every 5 subsequent levels
Level 50:
- 5% Magic Resistance
Disadvantages:
- INT and WIS can be no higher than 16
- May not use missile weapons (slings, bows and crossbows, darts) unless they also have a melee component (such as magic axes and daggers that can be both used in melee and hurled)
- May not wear armor heavier than studded leather
- May only obtain *** in all but the Short Sword, Scimitar, Dagger, Spear, and Quarterstaff
Ok, now, why is he so powerful? We all thought the Kensai was the ultimate fighter. INCORRECT! Though the Kensai is a good fighter, I personally, who made the MOD, do not like the kit, and Chloe's arrogance for rather pathetic fighting skills only serves to further that. (I love the MOD, and she is useful, but dreadfully arrogant, and not nearly as good a warrior as she passes herself off for)
Furthermore, The Kensai may spend a great deal of time training and the sword is an integral part of his/her life, he/she does not come close to the Gladiator, for the Sword is his life.
Abilities:
Berserk: The Gladiator can go berserk if necessary, doing everything he can to survive.
+1 THAC0, +1 Damage: He trains no less than the Kensai, perhaps more
Physical Resistances: Broken bones and lacerated skin heal stronger than before. Plus I thought it would be nice.
Magic Resistance: Frankly, I just thought I'd throw that in for fun, but fighting mystical creatures, you develop methods to counter them, one being MR.
STR, CON, and THAC0 increase: Training full time make the gladiator a self-improving warrior.
AC Bonus: Lightly armored but hard to hit.
Starting THAC0 Bonus: You have to be good to qualify.
HLAs at lower levels: Once again, training makes you all the stronger.
Immune to Poison: Just thought I'd toss that in, considering the food Gladiators generally get.
That about covers it.
Oh, question for anyone in the BIZ: Is there a free data repository site I can upload my MOD to so people could enjoy it? Yahoo Briefcase can be made public, but requires a Yahoo ID to access regardless.
Thank you

STR, CON, and THAC0 increase: Training full time make the gladiator a self-improving warrior.
AC Bonus: Lightly armored but hard to hit.
Starting THAC0 Bonus: You have to be good to qualify.
HLAs at lower levels: Once again, training makes you all the stronger.
Immune to Poison: Just thought I'd toss that in, considering the food Gladiators generally get.
That about covers it.
Oh, question for anyone in the BIZ: Is there a free data repository site I can upload my MOD to so people could enjoy it? Yahoo Briefcase can be made public, but requires a Yahoo ID to access regardless.
Thank you
Taste my Leonine Fury, mortals!
