Yes, if you guys don't mind. I figured it would be an easy reference for all of us.

Great.

How often should we post? For the remainder of the week, I should be able to post several times throughout the day, but starting next week, I'll only be able to post in the evenings.

Just so you know, from the 11th (well, before I leave that day) through the 21st... I will not be online at all.

So, if you need to work me into the story rather than start with me, that's fine. I can be a prisoner or something, or left back in town working at my forge or whatever.

Guys, game thread started-sorry I took so long. Serleran's character is not with you yet ( thats why I referenced three people instaed of four). I didn't offer any big story of why you guys are together, figured we'd jump into adventure and make things up as we go along!

A young beautiful Elven female who appears to be the equivalent of a woman in her late teens. She's well proportioned to

her 5 feet 8 inch height with a clearly physically fit physique. Her midnight blue-black hair is silky and smooth much like

the rest of her and is shoulder length but often worn tied up in a pony tail due to her active lifestyle. Soft luminescent

jade green irises that reflect that feisty inner fire are set into her almond shaped eyes accented by thin even naturally

arched brows. Tanned skin speaks more of her active lifestyle yet still seems well taken care of and soft. She wears no

make-up for her natural beauty is quite enough with her heart shaped face, petite nose, and smooth rouge colored full lips.

Her natural beauty cannot even be dimmed by her usual grim expression, but you definitely tell she's a serious one.
HT: 5'8" / WT: 120# / HAIR: Black / EYES: Green / RACE: Elf / SEX: Female / AGE: ?


Carmilliana was born of the noble Elven house Caralithis, a house of aristocrats with branches throughout the high courts of

Elves. Carmilliana is seven of nine children, which is not something so uncommon among the well-to-do Elves. Most of her

siblings are bureaucrats, artists, and magic users of some sort. Only a couple of the Caralithis children could be counted

as adventurers, of course "Karma", as she is known to those outside of the Elven lands, is one of them. Trained among the

best in the Elven lands, Karma has chosen a life of the free Ranger, protecting Elven interests abroad and at home and

those she might consider innocents along the way. As a youngling Elf she did start on the path of a Ranger to follow her

heart, but of a different matter, a young male Elf named Shalarastenor. An Elf of similar surname, but actually thrice

removed cousins making it permissible by Elven standards to romantically pursue such a union. "Shatter" as he was known to

be called, left the hallowed halls and protection of the Elven lands long before Karma, which broke her heart. Still later

she heard news that Shatter had indeed been killed in the outlands making her heart unmended for love like that ever again

(Truth be told, he was only dead to the Elves as he went down the path to darkness taking up the mantle of an assassin).

Instead, she threw herself into becoming the best Ranger she could be. The light of her soul was dimmed, but she pressed

on and sought to expand Elven influence and seek adventure in the outlands as did her former love.

Being young and naive she did not have an easy time. Attacked and brutalized by humanoid brigands she nearly lost her

flower, but was saved by an adventuring Illusionist, Sladal Elvbane. She felt indebted to him, and they've been adventuring

together since. She grew dark inside though, which lends to a grim demeanor by which she is now known.

Welcome to the forum and welcome to the game, Karma_Murphy.

We've just begun so I guess you can catch up to us on the road - as we are approching Garham, or run into us in town.

Hey Ron.

Welcome to the C&C forum!

Haven't played a PBP in many years.

Most of us here play online via Maptools and SKYPE. Fantastic gaming experience!

Anyway, the Umbrage Saga is great. Hope you have a great game!

Rhu. :)
