@Ciaran
I don't mind either way really. More players always seems more fun but then again I don't have any experience with Forum RPs or Tabletop games.

I'm not really the one who needs to be told that, I was just reminding the GM that he forgot someone.

In terms of why having more people could be a bad thing, I know from experience that GMing for tabletop RPGs gets significantly harder once a certain number of players is passed, and things can get very chaotic for everone involved; I assume it is the same for forum roleplay.

Some more background to help you flesh out your characters:

So the scourge began invading around a year ago, each character has made their way to the city if they weren't there already. They had enough renown to be looked to for leadership and they've been spending most of the past six months preparing the 150 ship fleet for escape and building up their defenses. Needless to say the general emotions of the city are rooted in tension and fear

Trade has obviously stopped for the most part. Some aristocrats still think they can buy their way into a better position, but nobody else seems to care much about money at the moment.

Many traditionalists blame recent technological advances for either attracting the scourge or incurring the gods' wrath to send the scourge upon civilization. Felix has been the most successful and influential priest, and the society has a strong leaning towards Torag, though all the gods typically found in a city are still being worshiped and followed. Agatha, Haruki's character, also lowkey has a cult following.

The bastion is divided such that the slums are a long, narrow stretch that borders the wall. The most minority races (gnomes, half-elves, half-orcs, orcs, tieflings, kobolds, catfolk, ratfolk, and tengu) live in the slums, alongside a sizeable number of the halfling population.

There is a dwarven quarter where one end of the wall meets the water, and an elven quarter where the other end meets the water. The docks were bought out by the wealthy as soon as they heard the plan to evacuate. The rest of the city, mostly humans and halflings, live in the center.

The dwarves are represented by Gammar, a war hero and leader who had the foresight to move his people to the Bastion before the Xill could kill most of them.

The elves are represented by a council. Though most of them keep to themselves, Lorekeeper Ayrie, and occasionally Llenasae, act as ambassadors between the city's leaders and the council.

If the slums have any representation, it's through The Compelling Savages. This organization is considered criminal, however, so they don't communicate directly with any leaders.

Backstory/Bio for Luddita Graves:

So i arrived later in the siege, traveling with a group of dwarves, most of them died having fought xill along the way. I was raised in a normal family of torag worshippers, but felt the church was not speaking truth. I left home at 16 and wandered alone for 5 years at some point getting lost in a forest and being spoken to by the shadowed gear - i believe it to be an avatar of the lawful trio - torag, zon kuthion, and irori. The gear imprinted on me branding me and making me bound to the shadows (My Brand is on my forehad and is a black, flaming gear)

I came to the city as i hoped to find a place of law and order but was disappointed. I shun chaotic people, but admire the lawful aspects within cultures. I like the dwarves more than anyone else in the city as they and likely want to help them achieve perfection as immortal craftsman as I like to craft constructs. I attend meetings of gammar and felix and have discussions on ways to best pursue a new world

I would likely disquise myself when going to meetings with Felix as my mechanical arms and tinkering with machines offends the congregation. After meettings/sermons/etc. we meet privately for Dinner and theological debates. My thoughts on the failure and lies of one god as well the nature of organized religion I'm tyring to unify gammar and felix under a single banner of our faith in law and order.

I attained famee making constructs to help with building and preparing for the travel. I also tinker and experiment, kinda like maurice in beauty and the beast. Im not a major player in the city, but I'm trying to participate and find allies.

I had family, but assume them dead. Possibly friends with other pcs depending on their alignment and goals

IC is up. Folks unfinished with NPC and PC relationships are welcome to wrap those up, but in the interest of not losing any more momentum, we're going to get started.

From this point on, I would prefer we use third person, past tense in the IC to avoid confusion.
