Wow, not even. My clock must be wrong.

DM Anthony d20=2 Wednesday March 21st, 2001 10:07:57 PM
This is soooooo cool
Plink Wednesday March 21st, 2001 10:36:19 PM
This rocks, hardcore, you are CORRECT. Did you get my charsheet, Anthony?
Bart Wednesday March 21st, 2001 11:11:29 PM
OK, so, what race and class is all my brothers and sisters?..
I'll be the first to tell something about myself pppbbbttt
My name is Bartholemu, or as my friends call me, Bart. I am a Dwarven Cleric. How did I get into the Orphanage, only Mother Flaust knows. All I know is I have lived here most of my life and I have known all of you, your lives.
As long as I have known, Healing has come natural for me. Anytime one of you got a scrape or burn or scratch, it was me who healed you up. It was just recently I found my calling of the church and turned my life over to Wardd, who, in his benevolence, grants me his mystical properties. And hopefully, through my deeds and his grace, you too will see his love for you and turn your lives to him as well.
Tiree True (Aleyna) Thursday March 22nd, 2001 9:07:46 AM
Hi everyone! My name is Aleyna and I am playing Tiree in this game.
So, ya wanna know 'bout me, huh? Well, there really ain't much ta tell ya. I was jus' a little un when Faust found me. Can't even member back that far really. But, I've been alright there. She's taken pretty good care of me and the others. It's jus' too bad that she keeps takin' in everyone. Well, that's not what I mean. What I mean is that she jus' don' have the money an such to feed and clothe all us. That's why me and some of the others have started helpin' her out. Now don' go and rat on us to her. She thinks we been working in the evenin's around town. Ya know, things like carryin' messages and guidin' people around. She don' need to know that ain't what we're doin'. But I'll tell ya this. The people that we take stuff from don' miss it. At least they shouldn't. They's got plenty and then some.
I don't want you to get the wrong idea about me, now. I don' plan on doin' this all me life. There's this guy in town who's teachin' me stuff. Stuff like how to tell a joke, and sing, and other stuff. He's a bard. He works at one of the more well-to-do inns here. He caught me one night tryin' to lift his purse, but instead of callin' the guard on me, he talked to me. Now I goes to see him whenever I can. He says I gotta good voice and a good way of readin' people, but I gotta learn to talk better. I'm workin' on it, but it's not easy thing ta do. I really gotta think 'bout it.
Anarion (Thomas) Thursday March 22nd, 2001 11:26:53 AM
This is very cool.
I've died and gone to online gaming heaven. :)
Jerry (Campaign DM) Thursday March 22nd, 2001 5:04:58 PM
Well I'm a day late, but welcome to the new board: Your board. Pretty amazing huh? Feel free to send John a note thanking him for his hard work in developing these boards for us. He's at jtklinger@usa.net
Also, I think the icon is pretty amazing as well. Thanks JK for your work on that. JK is at johnkfranklin@earthlink.net
Feel free to post here in and out of character until the game begins. At that time, Anthony will edit all of this out.
Again, Welcome! I hope this is the beginning of truly great things.

I'm disguntaled. I just wrote all this stuff and I thought I opened a new page, but it just started over so I have to start over. GRRRRRRRR.
What was I saying????? I wanted to know if it was illegal to advertise. If it is I'll take back my post or have a warning...
.........WARNING WHAT YOU ARE ABOUT TO READ IS AN ADVERTISEMENT. IF YOU HAVE ANYTHING AGAINST ADVERTISEMENTS PLEASE DO NOT READ FOWARD......
I want to invite all of you to see the Hirschi High School Production of "Little Women" It is only 40 minutes long (to be exact 38:44) and will be performed at Hirschi High School tonight at 8:15 pm, tomorrow at 7:00 pm and Sunday afternoon at 2:30. There is no cost and we would love to have your presense.
.......ADVERTISMENT IS OVER, WE NOW RETURN TO YOUR REGULARLY SCHEDULED PROGRAMMING.........
Okay, I wanted to introduce my character to everyone. I am going to be playing Polaris the halfling. I am a rogue at the age of 18. I was brought to the orphanage at the age of 7, so I don't remember much of my childhood outside of the orphanage. My father and mother were killed by the Dark Lord's Army. I remember my mother called me Polaris to always remember the North Star and to keep my direction. I am also a free spirt, I do what feels best to me, and sometimes my instincts aren't the best for others but I try to remember my manners.
Davis Thursday March 22nd, 2001 8:21:58 PM
Which one of you DMs are our DM. I already forgot. I know that can't sound to good, but I had a bad week and just forgot.
Which everone of you are the one I'm looking for I need to get with you to finalize my char.
And for the rest of you, I can't wait to get a chance to play this campain with you. I tried for weeks to get in a game and this one finally came around. I hope we kick some ass and get rich and famous in the process.
DM Anthony Thursday March 22nd, 2001 9:00:26 PM
I am the DM you are looking for, I won't be finalizing any charaacters until this weekend.

Sorry I forgot. I've had better weeks. The school I'm in had finals this week and to say the least, it whas pretty rough. But don't worry, I past. I'm kind of disapointed with myself, I only got a 96%. I missed a couple questions because I was in a hurry (stupid, stupid, stupid). The bad part is that it wasn't timed.
Anywho, Now that thats over with I'm putting all my energy in to this campain and hope to have a long term charactor,if he lives that long.
Of course I had to try the dice roller. If my scores are a sign how my guy is going to do, then I'm in trouble. Lucky for me the game has not started yet.
Well, back to Diablo 2(a great game). If I can't save the world here, I'll have to do it somewhere.
Davis Thursday March 22nd, 2001 10:37:46 PM
Oh, by the way. You wrote up top that you being third made you the best.I think the saying goes: First is the worst SECOND IS THE BEST Third is the.... ...Well you know what it says. (hehe) Hope you don't hold any of this against me when the game starts.
Kari Friday March 23rd, 2001 1:00:02 PM
I don't know what it says.
Bart Friday March 23rd, 2001 5:18:08 PM
ok, let all us players pipe up and just say what our names are, race and class so I can write everything down for my memory aint so good. Please
I am a Dwarven Priest of Wardd, the god of trickery. Name is Bartholemu but please call me Bart.
Zack (Davis) Friday March 23rd, 2001 7:40:11 PM
I believe I'm playing a ranger in this campain. I put in so many applications to get into a game that I forgot which ones got in or not. I never came up with a name til now and I think it will do just fine. If any of you need any help I got both the PHB and DMG, I still need the MM. Well I got to go, I'm in the game in the red wyrm inn that is going on tonight. Later
Tiree (Aleyna) Friday March 23rd, 2001 8:18:54 PM
I'm a human rogue right now, but I plan on multiclassing her into a rogue/bard.
Polaris (Kari) Saturday March 24th, 2001 12:40:50 AM
I'm a halfling rogue
Plink Sunday March 25th, 2001 10:05:41 PM
Boy, we've got us some rogues, eh? I am a half-elven bard myself, brother to another party member. Email is dwarven_drael@hotmail.com if y'all wanna drop me a line.

Howdy, I wanted to test the die roller and figured I'd declare myself a short dumb elven fighter! I would like to applaud Zack for playing a ranger in what 'appears' to be a city campaign...
Zack (davis) Monday March 26th, 2001 11:48:08 AM
Oh, so you think your funny. I'll remember that when a group of all rouges need the help of a good fighter. And one who isn't as flatfooted as a short elven fighter. No, just kidding. And I thank you for your applause. Theres nothing like being able to fight as well as a fighter, but still be able to sneak like a thief. Something like that sounds quite promissing for a campain such as this one.As for the story line of how I got here, thats something else.But its not imposible(did I spell that right?). Rangers are a unmatched force when it comes to there ability to survive in whatever condition. Being good at fighting is one thing, and yet being good at hiding is another. But to be good at both, well thats priceless. You may hold your own in a fight. But lets see how you do when the rogues decide to sneak quitely into whatever trouble is out there. I dont mean to get all defensive, but there is no sense in judging a char. abilitys til the game starts. And I know I did the same with you fighter, but just to show you how it feels. I think if we all work together on this, then I'm sure we can do fine. But if we don't, then theres no chance in hell that we're going to make it through even the first stage of our campain. OK,now that thats said, its time for me to go and get ready for the real world. Its almost noon where I'm at and that means its time for me to get up and moving. I hate having to get up this early, but we all got responsiblity(yea right). Til next time.
Bart Monday March 26th, 2001 5:29:00 PM
ok just for my records this is what we have.
Just so everyone will get an idea of how I will be playing Bart.
Bart has been with the Flaust Orphanage for as long as he can remember. He knows his race and knows Mother Flaust isn't his blood relative but she is in his heart as his mother. Bart longs to go find his relatives but in the same breath wants to make sure Mother Flaust never has a need for anything. That is why he aint leaving just yet. Bart thinks of himself as the groups Big Brother. And for the most part you all just smile, shake your head, then go do what you want. Which is fine until you scream in pain and lo and behold who comes to rescue you from a splinter? Big Brother. Now we all have grown up and chose what field of expertise we desire to excel in. Bart follows the way of Wardd, the God of trickery so he tolerates the antics of Polaris and Tiree, sometimes helping them whenever he can. He enjoys the songs from Plink, whenever he needs his calms settled, he hums some of Plinks tunes or if Plink is around, has Plink hum instead. Bart laughs at Zack and Syrdeth, the two are always butting heads but know deep down, they are brothers and as brothers they will always argue and fight but whenever someone else tries picking on one, the other is right there to help the other. And that is how we all are. We may bicker, fight, not like each other from time to time but when it counts the most, when one of us is threatened, we always set aside our differences and help each other out. This is why I am proud to call myself your Big Brother, cuz I tell you all right now, there is nobody else I would want to be part of my family than you all.
<Bart wipes a tear from his cheek, smiles at everyone, and goes to his room for the night>
Thomas Monday March 26th, 2001 6:17:40 PM
I'm playing Anarion a half-elven mage.
Brother of Blink.
Tiree Monday March 26th, 2001 6:18:33 PM
Tiree looks after Bart as he heads up to his room. She says to herself softly, "Y'always did know jus' how ta get ta the heart of the matter, Brother."
She looks around at the other orphans.
"Okay. I see mos' of us 'ere, but it looks ta me like we're maybe missin' somebody."
Davis Monday March 26th, 2001 6:37:27 PM
Oh, sorry there Bart. Zack is a human charactor.
DM (Anthony) Monday March 26th, 2001 6:49:14 PM
Ok guys here is the set up... and guidelines. Flauest (sp) runs a tight ship but she is UNGODLY UGLY!!! Cha = 3, seriously! She has a HUGE heart though but she dosent put up with any BS and shes in WAY over her head. She can't take care of all the kids she takes in lately (lately = past 4 or 5 years) She ONLY takes in kids that have a talent for something and only if they pass her own secret tests. Shes a priest and does alignment checks. She would NEVER allow a naturally violent child or a bully to enter her protection. She took all of you in at about the same time and now years later you have not been adopted but shes been like a mom. All the little ones (thats almost EVERYONE else at the orphanage) looks up to you all like the big brother and sisters that you are. Flaust (sp) will let you deal with that relationship in any way you want as long as no one gets hurt emotionaly or physicaly. She is a VERY good person. So about a year ago, you all started to see she needed money, little ones were going hungry and cold. You all ventured out to find jobs but with the influx of refugees its hard to find a job. It was then you all found that you all had a talent for sneaking around and taking things that weren't yours. You told Moma Flaust (sp) you had jobs and then began, as a team, to take from the rich and give to the needy: in this case Flaust. You have met today to discuss rules of stealing knowing that Flaust (sp) would never forgive you as it was if she found out, these rules need to make your stealing as honarable as possible.
Please role play this in character.
Post you characters name and then your own name in Parenthsees, like I did mine, once we know who everyone is well stop the personal names.
If you need to deal with an out of character issue, please place the initals OOC before your name in parentheses, like this:
OOC (Anthony)
EXP is beeing awarded for roleplay starting now.
Anarion (Thomas) Monday March 26th, 2001 6:51:43 PM
Hi I'm Anarion of the Floating city.
I'm one of the group of kids dubbed the "olders" by the rest at the orphanage. My brother is Blink and we do look similar. We have a strange triangular tattoo on our right shoulders. Nobody ever asks us about them because my brother and I once beat up another kid who was making fun of the tattoo. We stick together and protect one another, so nobody messes with us much.
I know some of you think I'm a bit quiet and morose, but I am a good friend to a select few in the orphanage. I think most of the kids or kinda dumb and annoying, but the Olders are mostly ok with me. I also like to help out some of the really young kids at the Orphanage. Sometimes Mother Flaust has so much to do that the 3 to 5 year olds get neglected a bit.
I like to read and study how the world works around us. I'm not a good for nothing theif like most of the others in here. Although I have stolen food in the past when I was really hungry, but I don't think it very honorable.
Lately I've been sneaking outside a bit with my brother. Some of the other Olders have been talking about discovering whats outside the Orphanage. I'm all for that, but I love Mother Flaust and wouldn't want to do anything to betray her trust in us. So were going to have to be very carefull.
