Player Characters

#1 Post by rredmond »

This is a game about killing things and taking their stuff so you can become more powerful in order to kill bigger things and take even better stuff.
Alethan: I'm good with NOT pressing our luck this time.
mjulius: That's how I know I'm home.
Pulpatoon: The whole point of PbP is to take the scheduling pressure off the game. We're just chatty because we're so eager!
Scott308: ...everyone should be reminded of just how wonderful the people they play games with here can be in real life.
Leitz: Quality and quantity wise, I think US is the best I've seen.
Paladin: I can promise terror, glory, and riches...or a quick and brutal death.
Inferno: Come on! That's was Vicar's Head, a completely different doomed village!
Rex: I can move to the wait list to let someone else into the game.

Bio/Background
Despite his age, Arnar still acts very much a young dwarf, all spit and fire and not giving a troll's shite about fighting honorably or fairly. He lucked upon his favourite ring early in his fighting career and uses it to his advantage any chance he gets. Indeed, it helped him win the prize of the Dwarven Hammer at the last 100 Year Games, as did his completely innocuous-but-magical boots.

Since the acquisition of the dwarven hammer, Arnar has been seeking greater and greater challenges to test himself. This is the reason for his signing up with a bunch of humans and a gnome to launch a possibly suicidal attack against a hill giant fortress. This will be his greatest personal test yet, but he doesn't plan on letting his ring get dusty with inactivity.


Rolls:
[4d6c1] = 14 [4d6c1] = 8 [4d6c1] = 11 [4d6c1] = 16 [4d6c1] = 13 [4d6c1] = 9

hit points [9d10+27] = 42+27 = 69

Sorry, have to re-roll Hit Points. I forgot the level limit for lower STR for dwarven fighters.

new hit point roll [7d10+21] = 41+21 = 62

I'll take that.
