It kind of sucks that 8 people have posted character sheets and only 4 of those people have actually posted. I suppose you got to see it through a GM's perspective to understand how I feel. I appreciate that 4 people remain interested, I really do. It's just I wish that 8/8 people would have been interested.

You have to kind of factor in that people are going to flake, though. So in a perfect world, yea, you would have 8, but people wander off or life takes them away.
Would you like a character born and raised in the village? I'm kind of thinking of using one of the girls at the mill with her dead father's (a former guard) sword and shield then with a bow she made herself.

Sure, I don't mind if you build a character that was born in the village.
Class/Job: Warrior (Upgrade to Paladin later if possible through Eludin's instruction)/ Lumber Mill Worker and Part-Time Hunter
Description: a tall, slender girl with muscled shoulders, waist-length golden hair, and dark brown eyes
Biography: Alice's whole life has been in and around Reisui. Her father was a guardsman who married one of the village women and the two were content to live there for many years with many children and great-grandchildren. Yet for some reason, Alice was their first and only after ten years of marriage. They were glad to have had Alice for six years, but were disappointed to not have given her any siblings. They were about to consult the wizard after the father got back from investigating a bandit report. But the men returned with the father's gear and reported how Alice's father was killed in an ambush, saving every other man and defeating that bandit gang for good.
The two were in shock for a while after, though Alice came to rally herself up enough to take care of things around the house while her mother just stayed in her daze. She came to recover some when Alice was eight though has never fully recovered. It came to Alice's shoulders then to provide a living for the two, working at the lumber mill, where she developed her strength. When food was running scarce, she made a longbow and arrows out of some of the wood scraps and branches from the lumber yard. It took her a couple of times, but she became quite proficient with the bow and was able to hunt enough food for herself and her mother and sell some of it to the Bloodmoon sisters for their inn (though she suspects they might just buy it to be charitable).
But Alice hated it that her mom was still so withdrawn. But she found a solution at last, and then with a heavy heart, helped an old boyfriend of her mom who still loved her win her back. They were married this last year, and though the sight hurts her, Alice is glad that her mother is happy again. She has kept working at the lumber mill and hunting though to support her family and to save some money of her own. Now that her mother is taken care of, Alice is starting to wish for a change of scenery, an adventure. She's tried to at least get adventure and revenge multiple times by trying to join townsmen groups going out to hunt bandits. But she's always refused since she's young and is only self-taught with her sword and shield. But she keeps trying anyway and even thinks of following the next group sent after bandits with or without an invitation.
Possessions: Weapons- A steel longsword, a kite shield, used by her late father, and a longbow she carved herself from wood in the lumberyard
(except for a real belt around her waist for her quiver and sheath) with this cape over it
and brown leather boots
Armour- A leather breastplate she acquired for hunting expeditions Other- A small silver necklace that belonged to her mother with a oak-like tree on the pendent
Demeanor: Tough as nails yet not cynical, Alice has learned to survive with her grief while still holding on to the principles her parents taught her. Yet a spark in her wants revenge against the bandits who killed her father and another wants to go on an adventure away from this small town, see the world and do something to truly make him proud. Also, she has a fascination with the outside world and with weapons.
Incase he doesnt post though I will get working on one.... I will just make it seem like Cassandra waited long enough and move on to the next customer.
Your right,... I think you and me both can see who will probably be fading out of this role play and who will be staying. Sigh,... its shame, ya know? Anyhow just keep up with the awesome posts. I enjoy reading them , and can't wait to read the next one.
