Thag Simmons MXL, the 17 year old son of Thag (deceased) and Mabel Simmons, a weaveress; simple folk from a village so small it appears on no map. He has a twin brother, Thig, who was away training to be a cleric but has recently returned home to care for their mother. He also has two younger siblin...

I've never played, but I read through the rulebook and expansions. I will be a Human Strider from the Outcasts expansion. A decent fighter with outdoor and dungeon skills - basically a Ranger without spells.
I'll type up a simple character sheet tonight - difficult to do on a droid phone. Lol

I was thinking of either Human Fighter or Human Strider, which would be more useful?

Either way, my character's name is Thag Simmons MXL (l.e. the 1039th direct descendant of Thag Simmons, and bonus points if you know the reference, lol)

Then I'll use the human fighter I designed, instead of his brother the cleric.
So how & where & when does this happened.

I've never done a PbP version, how does it work?
Is there room for a human fighter, or would a cleric be better?

"m in the same boat as 'shroom, I really want to play, but my group is committed to Tunnels & Trolls at the moment, and doesn't want to start a new system.
