I just edited my CS into my first post above.

Firstly, I apologize if this sounds whiny, but we're starting at level one. That means we have wimpy skills that we'll either never use again or improve upon with later skills. I would scream "Munchkin!" at Mercury if it were anyone but Jay (but I know Jay's an awesome RPer, so he's not doing it to be the best).

Now then, Necrosis, do you mind me inserting my character into your character's life?
