Gods & Men: The Ancient Myths RPG: Chapter 1 OOC Thread

Well..okay...are we able to form our own versions of myths/history? Not totally shunning myth, but weave it the way we want it too be woven through history?

You mean play out the myth ourselves and run/alter it how we want to?
 
Johnny, she's explained to me what she wants to do (in the most general terms possible. Women, they're so secretive. :rolleyes:) and it seems like a good idea, and it doesn't break any rules. I say :up:

Character you have created (include known alias or nicknames here as well): Linken Shire the Drift.

Racial Traits (traits specific to your race; a list can be found in the second post of the OOC thread) (For races not listed, GMs must create traits for that race first before player approval): Like all other elves. But slightly stronger.

Character Class (Somewhat similar to the classes in the CAH RPG, but with some differences) (Choose One): Ranger.

Character Alignment (Good/Evil/Neutral): Neutral

Character Personality (Give information on how your character acts, what he/she believes in, how they handle situations): He believes in good. But only acts when it's most profitable to him.

Origin Info/Details (don't be blunt, be as thorough as possible): Well not much is known about Linken. He wonders around from village to village on his horse, Rocket. Playing his lute for money and coin and helping out when it's most profitable to him. (I'm kinda basing him of of Link) Also he is at a peak level in almost everything and is an expert in fighting but doesn't let anyone know this and even makes it looks like he's losing on purpose.

Attributes (Select one from each category) (some races are greater or weaker than a human in specific categories and will be noted below or in the racial traits section of the OOC thread):

Strength Level: peak.

Speed/Reaction Timing Level: Peak

Intelligence: Average

Fighting Skill: Expert

Notable Equipment (Items your character has on them of relevance, such as thieving tools if they're a rogue, holy items if they're a priest, magic weapons and/or armor, magic items, etc; we assume you're character has basic stuff, like rations, waterskin, and a torch or lantern; be as specific as possible as well as realistic as possible, I.E. if your character is carrying a ton of stuff their mobility and endurance will be sorely hindered; also keep in mind that magic items are rare, expensive, and difficult to make) (For ideas for notable equipment, and magic items, check out the link below the app): He has a rusty broad sword and a shield that looks like it has been through some hard times. Both these items are said to belong to a hero of old.
He also wears strange green cloths. (Besides all of that thats all he has in common with Link.)

Also his horse has pouches on both side of the saddle to hold his items.

Weaknesses (If your character has any specific weakness, such as a vampire's weakness to sunlight (among other things) or a Faerie's weakness to iron, list them here): Nothing in particular except the fact that he can be killed like any other elf.

Supporting Characters (Does your character have a significant other? A mother? A Friend? Who are they, what do they have to do with your character?): His horse, Rocket.

Describe using proper English grammar what you think you can bring to the RPG: Well I'm pretty good at role playing. And I love to create party's with other characters.

Sample Post (Minimum Four decent-sized paragraphs containing
dialogue):

The sound of bouncy musical notes can be heard all through the plans. The music is being played on a lute, and have almost a hypnotic sound. When people hear it they are filled with hope and joy.

A lone ranger rides through these plans playing this music for reasons unknown. The only thing the people of the land are for sure is his name. Linken.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Oh goodness!!! Someone please help me!!!"

A man runs through the empty plains in panic. He is being chased by a small group of goblins. "C'mon boys! Get him! Were not going to miss out on another meal."

The man trips and hurts his leg. He tries to get up and move but can't. The goblins close in on him. "He, he, he, chow down boys!!" One of the goblins say.

They move in for the kill but stop. They hear galloping. They turn around to see a elf on a horse in strange green cloths.

When he sees the sight of the goblins and the man he stops and looks.
"What do you want?? Elf??!!"

"Oh nothing.. I'm just passing through."

"Well keep passing fool!" Barked a goblin.

"Please good sir help me!!" The man pleaded.

"I will... For thirty gold."

"Yes! Whatever you want!! Just please help me."

"Alrighty than. You got yourself a hero." The elf pulls out a rusty sword and points it at the goblins.

"You've just made the biggest mistake of your life... ELF!!!"

I'd like to see more in the personality section.

Also, what do you mean by "slighty stronger?"
 
Alright I'll make a better post in a sec.
Well, like lets say that him and an elf who's is at their peak both fought hand hand. He would win because he is stronger. But not by much. A human is still stronger than him.
 
I'm kind of curious on what rules could be bent on characters and the like?

Ok, so he's basically in the top percentile of peak elf strength?

"Please good sir help me!!" The man pleaded.

"I will... For thirty gold."

"But sir... I... I don't have money I am poor."

"Well than I'm sorry I guess you're goblin chow than. Shame that is." He starts to ride off.

"Please sir!!! Don't leave me." He has desperate look in his eye. The goblin continue on their prey.

The elf looks back at him. "Fine then. But for that ring on your finger."

The man looks at his finger. "But this.. this is my... Fine you can have it just kill these brutes."

"Alright than. Looks like you got a hero." He pulls out his sword and points it at the goblins. "You've just made your last mistake..ELF!!"
They lung at him but the young elf defeats then all. He walks up to the man an helps him up. He begins to coutasly take of his ring. But the elf stops him.

"Don't worry about it old man. I found something more valuable on those goblins." He hold up a small pouch and shakes it. He thin pours it's contents into his hand. Gold falls out. He then jumps back on his horse and rides off. The man gets up and sees a few gold pieces
on the ground. Enough to feed his family. He never found out if the elf had left them on accident or not but he was forever great full.
 
That enough personality for ya??
And I'll have a better description of the fight if you approve me.

That's cool, but, when I asked for more in the Personality section, I meant this...

Character Personality (Give information on how your character acts, what he/she believes in, how they handle situations): He believes in good. But only acts when it's most profitable to him.

It'll need to be expanded on before approval. Other than that, you're good. :up:
 
Just so everyone knows, I'm at my dad's on a slow 'net connection til Friday (actually Thursday, but I'm taking an attractive single friend of mine to the bar on her 21st, so you'll forgive me not being here that night...) I'm writing up the last bits of my first solo adventure on an old notebook, and we'll see where it goes from there.

Sounds good. :up:

Have fun on Friday. :cwink:
 
Oh.... Ha ha ha ....

Well besides that he may act when it's more profitable but he won't let anyone die. He always finds away out of getting what he ask for unless the person who is giving it to him can afford it. He's a bit of a womanizer. Enjoys kids, very kind to people, like long walks on the beach and kissing in the rai.......n oh wait. Also he makes alot of jokes even in the most horrible of situations. That enough?? I could go on.
 
Also, JB are you on MSN right now? My buddy list isn't showing you, so could you IM me if you're on?
 
Oh.... Ha ha ha ....
