I think Suho and WS was trying to describe which scores they would have gotten if they were D&D characters...

cool, but at least it reminded me to make indemar's stats.
Mine would be:
STR> 16 (what can I say? I'm a strong person)
DEX> 12 (but I can't move that fast)
WIS> 16 (I could easily be a psychologist)
INT> 17 (I have a majorly high IQ)
CON> 14 (but, like Suho's, probably alot lower at the moment due to illness)
CHA> 13 (I'm kinda of average, but if I have to, I can bullshit like no one's business, though I don't make a habit of it)
That more what you were looking for?

Well, I gues we should decide when we are meeting up now...is it, then 0600 GMT?
I may have a problem...my computer did something strange this morning (I'm typing this from work). At the moment, Scan Disk is running on my computer at home (and it's going through my big hard drive...yikes! And taking a long time...hours...may be that the hard drive crashed *crosses fingers*).
If I'm not there tomorrow, then you know why...and I'll be a sobbing wreck...

Yeah! Inition's back!
2 am EST Saturday was the original time so 1 am for you. We're talking about pushing it back an hour.
Either times fine with me.

WS- Don't you mean 0500 GMT? I think that would be 0600 for you...
Anyway, my schedule tomorrow is a little more free than it normally will be, so we don't have to start so early if you don't want to. All I know is that I've been struggling with my character sheet a bit, and it's still not finished. I'll probably be working on it from about 0400 GMT, and maybe if someone is on ICQ then (tiki?) they can help me out... we could start at 0500, 0600, or probably even get away with 0700 tomorrow.
At any rate, everyone just get on ICQ when you're ready. We can start when the whole gang is together.
Inition: It might be a tad difficult for you to join this campaign right away, although I personally would welcome another player. You'll have to speak to our DM (Veneficuz) first, and it will be up to him whether or not he can work you in a little later on. I would recommend sending him an e-mail.
OK, guys, see you tomorrow.

Inition: feel free to join the campaign, there are only a couple of minor adjustments to do with 1 more player so that wont be a problem Just need to know what class you are going to play and your ICQ number...
I think the time we 'agreed' upon was 0500 GMT, but I wouldn't mind pushing it back an hour if it is possible this one time.

I, too, would welcome another party member...a 'trap finder' would be welcome *glares at Master Suho*

So that makes it 4:00 PM my time, right?
Fuck...the school I work for told me yesterday that I have to DJ a function they have on today form 9:30 AM through to 6:00 PM. Now, I know that the characters don't all meet up at the one time, so would I be able to delay my meeting up with you for a little bit till my wekeends settle down again? A week or so ought to do it.

Yes, I can swing 0600 for today. I've got to hit the library and then the gym, but I should be in after that (maybe around 0300).
WS- Actually, I was the one who first said we needed both a cleric and a rogue, and I decided to play a cleric because V said that role would be more vital. In lieu of a rogue, the best way to find traps is to have your biggest, beefiest party member stroll through them... logical, no?
Inition - Hey, well, if it's OK with V than it's OK with me. You'd better start putting your character together quick.
I'm getting the sinking feeling that this is going to be very difficult if we're missing a party member each week (I, for example, will be gone all next weekend). I'm not sure how that's going to work out...
Oh, while we're at it: Skaarjj, baby, I'm beginning to get the feeling that you don't love me anymore! Come on, toss some authorization over this way, will ya?

Anaikeos, Human Psion
Post writing note: I don't expect people to read this whole background, I'll have to write more later and fill in the -several- holes I left in the story, hope you like it. For alignment, I won't play an Evil character for obvious reasons, I'm looking at CN (which is kind of cheesy) or true neutral. If I play CN, I'll try to dig deep and make it interesting. I need some food and a shower! (watched baseball all day)... Accually, now I want to make him LN, and say he was forced to run with thieves for survival....
Background information:
Looking for adventure was never difficult for Anaikeos. Life in Calimshan is in the hands of the next thief or cut throat. Some think the main temptation for the criminals of the desert is gold, but Calimshan's desnians know better. Power is sweeter then gold. Anaikeos was inconspicuos at first. Son of a hard working father, his aspirations were not high. His ethic for work was inexorable and meticulous. Making decorative clocks is accually a lucritive buisness in the desert, compaired to the rest of the legit occupations. At the age of 13, Anaikeos was able to work mechanically with unmatched precision and speed. His psyionic powers where creeping up on him, so slowly and subtely, it was unnoticable. Anaikeos's father was proud, but jealousy crept in. Tragicly, Anaikeos was expelled from his home at 16, and left to fend for himself. He was almost forced to run with the crowds he did, which was thieves. Anaikeos wasn't dextrous in any way, at the time, he was 16, just over 6ft tall, with skinny shoulders and a barrel chest. The barrel shape continued to throughout the midsection. His role was a combatant, not with a sword or bow, but with powers of his mind. His companions thought he was a wizard, because Anaikeos carried around an old book to keep his powers subtle. The offensive sector of his psionic power was revealed in a robbery gone bad. At the time Anaikeos was the "useless one," so his job was the decoy... As it turned out, 5 armed guards armed with scimitars had him cornered. In the moments before his death, he screamed with rage and stomped on the ground in flustration, but the emotion expelled through his foot, knocking all the attackers to the ground. Anaikeos fled Calimsham after stirring up far too much trouble, and now Travels Farune is search of power.

Sorry I couldn't make it guys...though my computer survived whatever it was that happened (and I'm still not sure what it was...), we moved this weekend, and something went wrong with the internet connection. *sigh*
Well, hopefully, I'll have that solved by the end of the week. The weekend was a lot of work...I need a break.

We were wondering how things went with you, WS. At least your computer survived...
Anyway, Skaarjj couldn't make it either, so V, tiki and I just kind of hung out for a while and I worked on my character sheet.
V and tiki: sorry I had to bug out like that so suddenly. My wife knew we weren't playing, so I really couldn't give a reason for not going. This will not happen if and when we do actually start playing.
As I mentioned before, I will not be available this coming weekend, so it looks like next weekend for me. We should really set a definite time, and if people want to show up before hand to chill out, then that's cool. I'm beginning to despair of us actually all getting together at the same time, though...

If we are to set a definite time to play I need to know when people can play. I can play any time after GMT 0500.

Well, I had thought that we were originally going for 0500, as I will usually have to be done by around 0700, but this week we had a little more leeway... how is 0500 for everyone? If I'm lucky I might be able to squeeze an extra half-hour out, so that would give us 2.5 hours.

Well, since WS bumped this thread, I thought I'd just throw out a friendly reminder that I won't be here this weekend. Of course, the rest of you are free to meet in an OpenRPG room and moan about not being able to play. Um, not that we did that last week or anything.
V - I've been having a really rough week... but the character sheet is pretty much done and you will get it before our first session. Then again, I may have my first child before our first session (no, my wife is not pregnant).
