I can incorporate that in, so possibly. |

(I had a great idea for a Dwarf Lord character, so I'm making a dwarf lord character.)
Grand CS format:
Name: Asqual Thunderhammer
Age(if human, if not its okay to leave ambiguous): 268
Race(species, custom races are okay, classic ones are too): Dwarf
Appearance(Describe both physical appearance and clothing, because likely not everything you wear will be in Equipment): Asqual is rather tall for a Dwarf, being 5,0 and is built like any other Dwarf Lord or warrior would be, beefy but has a rather pronounced belly. His beard is a bright red, and goes down to his big stomach. The beard is braided with expensive looking beard bands that are studded with cheapish gemstones. His face is thin, and he looks very craggy, as it looks strong and has deep lines across his forehead.
He wears a deep bronze coloured chest-plate (describe in equipment) that has no arms, which shows off his large muscled arms with two iron wrist-bands on his right and left wrists that are laced with leather to hold them together. The wristbands are engraved with the lightening bolt symbol of clan Thunderbolt.
His helmet is much like a Viking helmet (and doesn't have horns because Viking helmets didn't have horns) but the metal itself is painted a dark blue colour, while the cross on the top is bright white to distinguish him as a lord of clan Thunderhammer. It also has a face mask, which is just the normal iron colour of other helmets.
Skills(Strengths, be sure to include areas of utility such as spellcasting or lock picking. Anything not here in Skills or in Weaknesses you'll be considered just average at): Asqual is trained in all Dwarven weaponry (Hammers, axes, etc) and knows how to use the giant Dwarven Thunder crossbows that will strike the wielder's opponent with lightening upon striking them. He also is a Lord of his clan and has a small taskforce (even though they aren't accompanying him, it's worth mentioning) and is considered a good tactical mind when he's sober.
Weaknesses(Areas where your character is limited. This can be phobias, lack of or intense honor or morals, weakness in a particular skill such as fighting in general or with a particular weapon, or physical disabilities, and many other things): Asqual is a heavy alcoholic, and drinks a LOT of Dwarven ale, which dulls his mind. He can also be considered racist, as he tends to stereotype others by their race (assuming elves are fancy pansy snobby nobles, etc). Asqual also has a very short-temper, which gets him into more trouble than it does good, and is honour-bound to receiving this gold to improve the Dwarven kingdom's relations with the King.
Equipment(What kind of stuff you use, at least at the start. Every character gets one magical item, be sure to specify what it does, and the rest is standard equipment. Don't forget your shoes!): He wields a warhammer, with his family crest engraved into it, and a large, round bronze shield that is similar to that of a Spartans, except being the same dark blue as his helmet, with the arrow symbol being bright white. He also carries around the large thunder crossbow on his back, and while cumbersome, when fired it strikes his enemy with a thunder-charged bolt (his magic item), He also has his helmet and chestplate (described in appearance).
Backstory(Okay if short, but I'd like a couple sentences at the least):
Other(if I've forgotten anything, or you'd like to add in anything else, put it here): Asqual grew up in House Thunderhammer, a small, but wealthy clan that provides a lot of thunder-charged weaponry to other Dwarf clans to fight the Greenskin hordes. He grew up under his father, Grethen Thunderhammer, who was a great warrior and the favoured son of three. His father was killed in a brutal clan civil war by his own, jealous brothers after they were offered a large sum of gold to do so.
The brothers were banished by the clan elders, and the Elders themselves became the new leader system in the clan, which is unlike all the other clans. They lost respect with the other clans because of this change, and when they heard of the one million gold reward and the glory that will come of it. They sent off Asqual to do the quest.

Name: Artemis Alister
Age: 37.
Race: Shape-changer.
Appearance: As a shape-changer, Artemis isn't expected to keep the same form for long, yet, she prefers to look like a human girl when she can. As a human, she would have what most consider an average height and weight, and pale skin. Her face contains big, blue eyes, a small nose, and thin lips. She doesn't wear any clothes, instead changing her shape to make it look like she's wearing a purple shirt and tan pants. She prefers to not wear shoes.
Skills: Artemis excels at using her bow and her daggers. She's also great at using her shape-shifting for a multitude of purposes.
Weaknesses: Artemis was taught to love all living things, yet, she has a fear of spiders. She also is bad at using heavy weapons.
Equipment: Artemis has pack that she often wears around her shoulders, in human form. Inside, she stores her bow, some gold, a strange statue, and whatever she finds along the journey.
Backstory: Growing up, Artemis lived a fine life, being taught to use her powers by her parents. It was when grew up that she ran into some trouble. One moment, she was walking through a marketplace, the next, she was in a small, blank room. Two human men stood in front of her, asking her questions that she didn't know the answer to.
"Where is it?"
"Where's what?"
"Oh, like you don't know."
"I actually do not know."
This repeated for a bit, until the men became annoyed and let her go. She returned to the marketplace, and while she was there, a woman ran up to her and handed her a small statue that depicts... ...well, it looks like a blob with a ruby on it. She's kept it ever since she got it.
Other: N/A.

Darn, no flight when he's taller. Thorn poison-wise, my intention was for it to be numbing. |

Hi, I'm back.
Tails, good character, but I'm wary about accepting it because you already have a character, and for fairness' sake unless a party really needs another person in it to start, I'm going to have to say no.
Crysta, while I don't have any problem with being a generic "shapeshifter", in books I've read shapeshifter races often have an actual name. And sometimes have different shapeshifting ability, such as not being able to shapeshift until maturity, can only be humanoid/nonhumanoid, etc.
The backstory is... incomplete. At not really believable, for this setting. This is a fantasy world, not a modern one. And being questioned, then being given the object the abductors were likely searching for? Also not believable. Finally, that "strange statue" I'm assuming is your magic item. I have to know what it does, at the very least, and if you want to keep it secret from other people then PM it to me. If it's an overpowered item, I can't let it pass through.
Swamp. I said no before, and I'll say no again. |

Looking back on the CS, it is quite sloppy, and for that I apologize. If you would like me to redo it, I will. If not, you are correct in assuming the statue is a magic item, and I will PM you it's effect.

I got your PM and the magic item is fine. I've been away for a while, yeah, and I'm drowning in schoolwork and XCOM 2 hype.
Cryst, you don't have to redo it, as that'd take up a lot of space. If you can improve or rewrite individual sections and post them, that would be perfectly acceptable. |

So, if anyone is still around for this, I should probably get around to making the first thread and the first party.
Currently, we have:
Bangles the budgie-person(Pick)
Ringil Eskiath the human(Faction)
Naroch the Rock Golem(LeBlaster)
Foxglove Bitternut the Flower Faerie(Pawz)
Darven Lightbringer the human(Tails)
We also have Asqual Thunderhammer, a second character by Tails who will have to go in a different party, and possibly Artemis Alister if Crysta comes back and adds more detail to the CS.
So right now we have 5 choices for a 4-person party. If someone else comes along and makes a nice CS, we can also split it to make 2 3-person parties. So I guess we'll go with first come first serve for now. |

Like I said in the OP, I'm willing to take up to 8 players in 2 parties, or 12 characters in 3 parties if there's a whole lot of interest. But right now it looks like we'll have 2 parties at most. |

What do you think is a good way to receive the statue in the backstory? I can't think of any that are good. |

The receiving the statue part is okay. It could be done in more detail, but I'm just more concerned about the men and the interrogation part. |

Hey babe, is this still open? Marked. I'll make a CS very soon. After I shower! |

Race: Limawendes. Limawendes are known for having the power to change their form, though, the power has its limits. The Limawendes can't become inanimate objects, and they can't become creatures they make up. The creature or person they turn into has to be something they've seen and felt.
Backstory: Artemis had a peaceful life with her parents, doing all the things other Limawendes children did. When she was of the right age, she was taught how to use her powers of changing her form, though she wasn't good at it. It was expected for beginners to not be great with their powers, but even when she became older, she still had trouble, and now only uses it when necessary. As an adult, Artemis traveled to a village far away from her home and started and started an inn. Ashamed of lack of skill in changing her form, she pretended she was human. One night at the inn, Artemis was asked to take hold of something. It looked like a statue, depicting a brown blob, and it had a ruby in the center. Before Artemis could ask why she needed to hold it, the woman who gave her the statue left. She didn’t even ask for a room. Weird. Anyway, the day after she received the statue, a large number of adventurers came to the inn, because the village’s local fighter-fest was happening soon. Artemis thought it sounded like fun, and signed up for the fighter-fest herself. During the fighter-fest, Artemis used a bow and dagger, and although she didn’t win, she did well, which made her feel like she was actually good at something for once. From then on, Artemis decided to become an adventurer, and upon receiving the message from the king, she was raring to go.
Skills: Artemis has gained a large amount of knowledge from reading books, so chances are, if there’s a book about it, Artemis knows how to use, or other things about it. Artemis is exceptional at bow and dagger use, having practiced in her free time. Artemis is naturally quiet, so she has a knack for sneaking around. Artemis is also decent with picking locks, learning how to because she keeps losing keys to things.
Weaknesses: Artemis, being a Limawendes, was taught to love everything living, and yet, she can’t help but be afraid of small creatures, like insects. As mentioned earlier, Artemis rarely uses her form changing powers, due to her lack of skill in it. She is also terrible with any weapon that isn’t a dagger or a bow, because book smarts can only take her so far. Artemis can’t communicate her ideas in a proper way most of the time, and could never act as a leader.

Name: Ariasa Caike
Age: 114. Lifespans lasting less than a century are for roundears.
Race: Elf
Appearance: 6'03", with pale skin, verdant green eyes and long, pointed ears reaching well above her head. Her hair is a pale brown, tied above her head.
She wears a light tunic and brown pants under a leather vest and hide cape.
Skills: Archery, tracking, stealth, whatever the term for parkour but in trees is
Weaknesses: Does not like animals; can barely stand working with the dead ones, much less touching them when they're alive. Brash and reckless.
Equipment: Leather vest and boots, a hide cloak, leather quiver for arrows, and a magical bow that seeks the nostrils of its enemies. (if that's too dumb just a magical ward amulet)
Backstory: A hunter for a nomadic clan, Ariasa liked to adventure, roaming the woods and carving a bow from the trees of a fabled forest. Eventually finding out about the dungeons, she took off from the forest, heading for the crypt. She excuses her sudden disappearance from her clan as "protecting it from evil" or something.
Other: N/A
BTW, can we have multiple characters? |
