Bio

Hey, there. Myst here, as you've probably guessed. Can't exactly write in other people's bios, can you? But, you're probably reading this for a reason, so I'll get to it.

I prefer high-Casual and Advanced games, in a medieval, fantasy or sci-fi setting, because that's the sort of nerd I am.

I'm a thinker - I've thought a lot on certain things, and am firm in my beliefs. So you could ask me what I thought about a good few things and I could give a well-reasoned answer. Or a less reasoned answer based on my morals.

TheCharactersOfMyst - This is my storage for past and present characters, and where I might occasionally go for nostalgia and/or recycling a character I've used before.

Scott



"Um… if you’re talking about me, I’d… I’d rather you spoke to me." Scott said, his voice wavering slightly from his lack of breath, his eyes fixed on the man’s boot. “And… and I wasn’t running from the blast. I was hiding from a group of goblins. I used that explosion as… as a distraction… so I could run.”

He took notice of the goblin - but he didn’t look for too long. He instead focused up at the mountain of a man in front of him. It was strange to have to crane back his neck so far. He took a few steps backwards. Despite his comparative size, it was somewhat relieving to see a human. If there was one human, that meant there were other humans somewhere. Hopefully.

But this meant that he could have been right when he guessed that smoke was from humans! Probably not many, if they only had the one fire, but given almost everything he had met had tried to kill him... wait, what if this human tried to kill him? He was with a goblin, so maybe he wasn't exactly nice... but the goblin was hiding from him, and the man was talking to it - her? - as if it were a child, or at the least, an easily spooked adult.

"My name's Scott." he offered, looking between the two. "I, uh, don't know where exactly I am... b-but anything you could tell me would be a great help!" And then his stomach let out an embarrassingly loud growl. "Or if you've some food to spare. Or water. Water would be better. I haven't really drank anything for... several days?"
@Vertigo Yep, that's all correct! There be one singular kobold left.

This combat is part of the book, but it has shown me where the flaws in my system are and how to improve on that. From now on, initiative and enemy lists will be featured in the 0th post of the character tab. That way, there shouldn't be any confusion about which ones are still standing.

This is why I staggered people's arrival - to let me see where the gaps are.
@Vertigo Seb and Magdar have gone!
Magdar’s Turn | Init: 6

HP 12/12 + 3 | Status: None

It took Magdar all of a second to charge into the fray. The sword painted on his shield seems to be a weapon of its own; as if Tempus himself were with his servant in this very moment. But no; the true weapon was the axe in the dwarf's hand. He charged for the kobold at Rhaeyla's defence, battle cry roaring forth from his lips.

This ill-timed battle cry only alerted the kobold to its incoming attacker, however, and it leapt out of the way. Of the first attack.

The second was a different story. Wielding his axe like a bat, Magdar attacked - and it went flying.

Sebastian’s Turn | Init: 9

HP 11/11 + 3 | Status: None

Sylvanna had been running at full speed for a while now - her eyes were still wild with animalistic fear, but under Sebastian's hand she was obediently running back towards the town, her flanks heaving under him. They had passed Surina not long ago, and it was impressive how far the woman could run without needing to stop. But his mind wasn't on the dragonborn or even the dragon. No, it was on the kobolds attacking his sister and their employees.

One was running away; it had seen them, and only just begun to change their course. A dark look crossed his face. Not so fast.

He drew his sword, and as he rode past, he swung. It was a clean attack - there were two soft thumps behind him, one after the other. He pulled back on the reins, and dismounted, starting to attach his shield to his arm.

@Tangletail I wish, but no.

@Vertigo Sebastian and Magdar are next, but probably best to start thinking.
@Tangletail Nope! Sebastian's Inspiring Leader ability only works for six creatures. You have a party of seven, not including the horses.
@Ollumhammersong Tagging you just in case.
Yes, it has - but it's in a place where a new player could be easily absorbed into the party. There are some NPC allies, too, but they're not going to stick around for the whole story. My major concern is that there's no tank right now - which is why I specify a paladin, fighter, ranger or barbarian would be appreciated.

If you would be willing to fill out the character sheet, it'd be appreciated.
