[h3]INSTRUCTIONS FOR APPROVED CHARACTERS[/h3][hr]This is very important and very serious so pay close attention! At the end of this post is a list of approved characters. If your character is approved, follow these instructions carefully:

[indent]Go back to your CS post, copy the whole CS, and then paste it as a new reply under the [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/87773-mirror-fox-key/char]Characters tab[/url]. [b]Do not use hiders.[/b] This is a selfish request by me; I often need to quickly skim lots of sheets at once. A hider-free Characters tab makes Mokley a happy panda![/indent]

After you have successfully posted your shiny approved CS under the Characters tab without hiders -- because you're an amazing and awesome person who follows instructions -- please complete the following survey and post your answers here in the OOC:

[quote][list][*][b]What is your usual posting speed?[/b]

[list][*][b]Choose one:[/b]

[list][*][b]Dragons or kittens?[/b][/list]

Thus concludes the short survey. Thank you for participating.
[h3]A FRIENDLY NOTE FROM YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD GM[/h3][hr]There are a lot of characters here, and I'm sure most of us realize the potential chaos this fact might pose. Just before the RP begins I'm going to separate you all into smaller groups -- more details on that later. I promise to read everything everyone writes, but I can't promise I will personally acknowledge every character at every GM post. I wish I could, but I'm sure you don't want to read a wall of text either. ;)  I trust you guys to interact with and support each other's characters -- or antagonize them, whichever you do best. I want everyone to feel included and like they're contributing to the story, but I'll need your help.
[h3]CHARACTERS WHO HAVE ACHIEVED APPROVAL[/h3][hr]
[b][url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/3101296]Emma Sommers[/url][/b], a plucky, easygoing botanist and expert healer with a dark secret.
[indent][i]Excellent motivation behind the character -- and the first of at least two appearances by mysterious hooded people. I adore dark secrets.[/i][/indent]

[b][url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/3101321]Alexander (Alex) Haile[/url][/b], a jokester militiaman with a habit of troublemaking and a drive for adventure.
[indent][i]We can definitely use a firearms marksman and a curious adventurer! I can help you a little with your coding, if you like. Check under the hider:[/i]

[hider=Codes for Alex's CS]Under "Appearance", I suggest you delete everything inside the parentheses. Instead, replace the words "light cloth/leather armour" with the following (copy/paste):

[indent][noparse][url=http://tinyurl.com/o6ue2xt]light cloth/leather armour[/url][/noparse][/indent]

Anyone who reads your CS will know to click the words to see an example.[/hider][/indent]

[b][url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/3101369]Novas Laquis[/url][/b], the inventive smith.
[indent][i]Very cool concept, and a neat addition to the mystery of the plot. The second appearance of mysterious hooded figures, and insight into their intentions![/i][/indent]

[b][url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/3101387]Andica Garun[/url][/b], a runaway bookbinder trying to escape an awful match.
[indent][i]This is hilarious and wonderful. And a doggy as well![/i][/indent]

[b][url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/3101407]Theodore Taylor[/url][/b], a sharply dressed man with a heavy heart.
[indent][i]As a direct juxtaposition of Andica, this one is worthy of a few tears. He needs a hug -- or a good adventure. Cool addition to potential plot down the road![/i][/indent]

[b][url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/3101489]Meryn[/url][/b], the quiet, roof-hopping delivery girl.
[indent][i]Really interesting and unique -- definitely adds a fresh element to the mix. Also, I like your picture. ;)[/i][/indent]

[b][url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/3101760]Fiammetta Anzivino[/url][/b], the proud daughter of a noble family with the heart of a lion and the soul of a warrior.
[indent][i]I don't know if you consider this complete yet, but it's approved anyway! She seems like a ton and a half of trouble. ;D[/i][/indent]

[b][url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/3101874]Roy[/url][/b], a simple woodcutter with a love for trees.
[indent][i]Very cool concept with a unique goal! Ideas for future encounters abound. We are definitely visiting some very unusual forests now.[/i][/indent]

[b][url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/3101942]Telio Lenocci[/url][/b], the artist who wants to draw the world.
[indent][i]Another wonderful concept with plenty of future possibilities -- and reasons for me to go crazy with description when the urge arises.[/i][/indent]

[b][url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/3101952]Redd Dreyden Jr.[/url][/b], the son of a Traveller, finding his way.
[indent][i]I hope you don't mind, but I see Redd as sort of a blank slate ready to be molded by the adventures ahead. That is a very, very good thing. I'm thrilled, actually.[/i][/indent]

[b][url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/3101956]Aeliir "Ally" Neuveth[/url][/b], the lost guardian seeking purpose.
[indent][i]Very neat way of describing the character! I can't tell how she might develop as a character, and I think that's awesome.[/i][/indent]

[b][url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/3102032]Amelia Tywin[/url][/b], the little girl with a hunger for a new horizon.
[indent][i]This is such a sad story -- and it might get sadder if she continues awhile in a Traveller's shoes. But maybe she'll make friends along the way![/i][/indent]

[b][url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/3102467]Lily Smith[/url][/b], a practical lady of the night who has decided it's time to move on.
[indent][i]First, you're an awesome artist! Holy cow! I really feel bad for your character's troubles but she's somehow very hopeful at the same time. Very cool.[/i][/indent]

[b][url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/3102604]Samieh Gaeard[/url][/b], a sly poacher and a brutish daughter.
[indent][i]I just really like her personality -- she seems like she can definitely hold her own. Lots of potential here.[/i][/indent]

[b][url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/3102715]Scarlett Autumnwalker[/url][/b], a calm head of red with a highly flammable heart.
[indent][i]Selfless grandpas will get me every damn time. She'll be a much needed spark of kindness on this adventure.[/i][/indent]

[b][url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/3102967]Sweeney Kane[/url][/b], a baker bored with the world within the wall.
[indent][i]I really like this. Boredom can be a profound motivator! And who doesn't like baked goods?[/i][/indent]

[b][url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/3103285]Lux[/url][/b], an investigator of mysteries and impossibilities
[indent][i]I really like the concept behind this character. The cases, and her ultimate objective, make for something pretty cool. Looking forward to meeting her![/i][/indent]

[b][url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/3103333]Sharie Evered[/url][/b], an unorthodox militia engineer and rifleman.
[indent][i]Definitely an asset to the team and a fun personality! Just wait til we get to the cities with higher tech. ;D[/i][/indent]

[b][url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/3103396]Kelsier Solidor[/url][/b], a Traveller's son who wants adventure.
[indent][i]He seems to be a very hard-working, driven sort -- definitely a great asset to have on a journey.[/i][/indent]
