I can see Maengun's point, but then surely it falls to the player to ensure there stats make sense (if you are an Olympic sprinter you should have some fitness). Still there clearly is a difference between the traits, as a sumo wrestler is supposedly quite strong and but might have little fitness. A good example would be to compare Usain bolt and Mo Farah - Bolt has more strength and speed but Farah would have more fitness.

James has Aquaphobia (he has a fear of drowning which prevents him from swimming unless he has absolutely no choice). He also has a mild case of Monophobia (fear of being alone) which has started to grow since the outbreak. And lastly, whilst not really a phobia, James has allergic reactions to bee stings and therefore tries to avoid them.

Also, how do Welshmen find sheep in long grass?

lol

I am going to be busy the next few days so may be limited to just responding to questions on here, however I will get the OOC up by the end of the week. Enalais and FBK (Fat Boy Kyle this is what i'm going to call you from now on to save the half a second it takes to type the full thing lol) you are both accepted.

History: James was born in Derby as the only child of publicans James (senior) and Francesca Morgan. Through his teens he was endued with the promise that he would work in the family pub, The King’s Sword, and eventually inherit it when he was older. Living above the pub he became used to the life and atmosphere surrounding it, and some of his happiest memories were of him and his father doing work on the place (they were very much DIY orientated). After high school James, despite intending to work in the pub, went to college where he studied History, Sociology, Creative Writing and Security. He had always had a great interest in ancient history and loved to read about ancient Rome and write alternative fiction in his spare time. Sociology he took because he heard it was easy, but actually found he quite liked it. And he took Security because he thought it might be handy given his bar work; he actually went on to get his security license and is therefore a security guard for the pub as well (if nothing else it makes the place look more professional and lowers their insurance).

Whilst in college James fell in love with a girl named Carly. After hearing she was into boxing James took the sport up himself to get her attention, and it worked. He never really took part in competitions, but he kept up the practice because he knew Carly found it attractive. About five months ago (after four years of going out) James proposed to Carly and she moved in with him above the pub. At that point James’ parents had moved out into a nicer house on the edge of Derby. When the outbreak occurred Carly was visiting a not so mutual friend in Leicester, and although he didn’t want to, James lent her his bike to go down there.

Companions: James is currently travelling with the Riley family, consisting of: ‘Doc’ Riley (mid-40s); his wife Melisa Riley (aged 38); and twin girls Amy and Beth (aged 8). James met them a couple of days after the outbreak whilst travelling (unintentionally) towards Birmingham.

Am I doing it right?

Newbie isn't an insult. N00b is derogatory, not newbie. Also if you read the post;This suggests the player it was aimed at and the GM were already acquainted. So it's probably an in-joke.Not that it matters since all this shit is super-old. Necro-support to the rescue!

Aye, the guys name is Newbie :P

Also, will this be a case of you can let your character die and make a new one? Or if your character is killed off while your away, coming back and making another?
