Valkyria Chronicles: Lions of the South

Somewhat okay ish.

Marches of Man: the Black Shields. [ALWAYS OPEN]

Guess I should make my goddamn mind then and post the character i'll be using instead of the barbarian.

Marches of Man: the Black Shields. [ALWAYS OPEN]

Yeah, I don't particularily fare well when playing girls either. The train of thought of a woman is hard to grasp, hahaha. :p

@Partisan

Yeah. But I end up playing em on a lot of rps anyway for the sake of variety. Weird.

@AtomicNut Heh, nothing quite that glamorous. I'm a computer science student, and my lab focuses on information visualization and analysis. Of course that sounds absolutely worthless to the general public ("so... you just make pretty graphs?"), so stuff like this really annoys me.

@Raven_Operative

Aye, I know the feeling. Computers have simplified interfaces since the start so much people has no idea of the mastodon of code that is a "simple" windows system of click and drag. Pretty vexing.

MsC in Physics here.

Well Leon will be back come Monday. It's not an insurmountable delay to put things on pause for the weekend. I'm probably unable to post until then as well. Minister of Science is coming to tour my lab and make a press announcement about new grants being given out, so I have to do all sorts of stuff in preparation including the writing a mini-speech. HALP.

@Raven_Operative

You're a chemist? Good luck trying to convince muggles...

Valkyria Chronicles: Lions of the South

Fina rechecked her equipment and fixations for the ninth time. First battle of her life. She drew breath quite deeply, and kept rechecking all the things she was carrying. Her hands did deft movements as she spoke, like if her backpack was the store of her father and her weapons and food were the goods. She had always helped managing things, and after a few times, inventary was a automatic skill to her. She shuffled her feet while gripping her rifle tightly, eyeing the floor in a rather flighty manner. Her gait was trembling and full of fear, and her weapon even ocassionally rattled, but her hand was firmly clenching it and not letting it go.

The talk with the sergeant had been soothing to a degree and she could sleep the night without the usual recurring nightmares, but the harsh truth called her back. Darcsen weren't liked at all, and she was just a teenager girl with a gun, the last member of a family with nowhere to go. Her only hope was now to obey orders, and kill people.

Well, she had already done that, had she not? Dead people had awful faces. Fear and pain. Who could've thought that a gun would make her even in the slightlest threatening before? She didn't like it in the slightlest. But it was neccessary. If she had to choose to kill Imperials to save her family and brethen, she would do it again. A thousand times.

Fina yelped slightly when she managed to reach the other soldiers in absolute silence, if it wasn't by the nervous rattling of her gun against her hands. Someone was trying to flirt with others, apparently. She had just intruded. She felt like shuffling back to the background, but for some reason she had to keep up with them.

"Aaaa...mormormorning." She let in a weak wail, full of awkwardness.

still haven't settled on the intro. Brain keeps being grinded into mush-

Gah, do you guys mind if go back to the character drawing table and see if I can figure something with someone different?

Marches of Man: the Black Shields. [ALWAYS OPEN]

So I was wondering, since there is a number of veteran warriors, is anyone willing to be Erryn's mentor of sorts. He's untrained and ignorant of the ways of war, so I was wondering if any of these well-experienced fighters wanted to him under their wing and teach him how to fight. If not, that's cool. I just wanted to try and make an opening for a bond between characters.

@ulsterwarrior

To be honest Gragnar might be considered an elder brother, the two profiles are so creepingly similar I am thinking of changing the character.

Marches of Man: the Black Shields. [ALWAYS OPEN]

Had an idea for a medic, if you prefer non combat types.
