And in return Prince will call Paige "maid" (because he's a real bumhole) and lecture her about minding her tone when she talks to her superiors. Of course not when Miry's around. He's just as sweet as can be when Miry's around, if condescending. He talks to her like she's six still. (And yet he talks to the little kids like they're his equals. hehe, he's a real piece of work.)

@RomanAria I love him already.

@RomanAria I do wonder how he affords nice clothing still. Paige: *mocks him mercilessly since he can't have the nice outfits his ego craves*

@shylarah xD. Thaaat's a good point. If he'd been more likeable, I would have said it was Miry who sewed and embroidered them, buuut... she kind of hates him. So let's say it's the same outfits from years ago. They're in kind of sorry shape. hehehehe.

Prince: *goes to smack Paige, realizes Miry is in the room, awkwardly turns the raised hand into scratching his back*
Miry: *looks up from her embroidery, glares at Prince, and raises the needle to the corner of her eye in a threatening manner*
Prince: *bows slightly to Miry* Forgive me, my lady, I meant no harm to anyone. (imagine the words just dripping with fake sincerity)
Miry: *looks back at her embroidery* You'd be better off bowing and scraping to Paige. She's the one you nearly hurt.
Prince: *bristling* And why would I bow to, to a peasant?!
Miry: Last I checked you were disowned from the house you were supposed to inherit, written out of their history books. You have no lands and no title and no birthright, not anymore.
Prince: Neither do you!
Miry: Ah, but I have the respect of the people. They would make me their queen of their own free will.
Prince: *derisive snort* Hah. Why would ANYONE willingly follow someone who looks like she's seven years old?
Miry: *sets down her embroidery sharply, suddenly about to cry, but speaks sharply* Oh, and they'd follow someone who looks like a scrawny boy of twelve?
Prince: You are female, and I am male. Therefore, I already hold more respect.
Miry: You are male and I am female. Therefore i can ask, Lady Queensguard, will you please kick my former betrothed in the nuts?

I'm gonna assume that the like is a go @Blizz and I just realized I never put Claret in the Characters tab so I'll go pop the duo over there now.

How it must chafe, to have his things in such a state!
Paige: With pleasure, m'lady! *kicks Lucas in the crotch, solidly*

I do plan on bringing in Angie, since I'm at three and Bits is shaping up as not Paw. Will post her when I have computer access, not just a kindle.

Name: Anna-Gilyan “Angie” Hightower
Age: 14
Appearance: Angie is on the pale side with freckles sprinkled across her face and upper arms. Her eyes are a rather grayish green, and her curly red hair is nearly always tied back in a high ponytail. She’s quite short and looks younger than she really is, something that’s sure to get her angry if you bring it up. But despite that she’s built solidly, and has a good amount of strength. She wears trousers and tunics, disdaining dresses in favor of more boyish clothing. She’s not hit puberty yet, and is still completely flat-chested -- another area where commentary is unwelcome.

Personality: Angie is confident and capable, learning how to look after herself as she grew up in an orphanage. She preferred the rowdy company of the boys to the quieter friendship of the girls, and she herself is plenty rough-and-tumble. She can be fierce when provoked, but is just as happy to leave things that don’t concern her be, unless it involves one of the other children. Give them a hard time -- particularly any sort of physical altercation -- and she will step in, and usually she’ll win. She’s not afraid to fight dirty, and she’s very resourceful. She has a quick temper and a sharp tongue, though the majority of her snark is reserved for those she really hates and those she likes. Angie expresses affection best through good-natured verbal abuse. If she likes you, she will give you a hard time. Most taunts flung at her roll off her solid self-esteem, though there are a few things, like her apparent youth and lack of development, that are hair-trigger issues. She’s pragmatic, dependable, and very trustworthy, and Olyvar has come to count on her to get things done. She’s happy serving as his lieutenant and a second to Toby, preferring to make sure things get done instead of worrying about who gets to be in charge. She would rather keep order than be the leader, and even if offered the position she’d likely turn it down.

Weapon: bow and sling, mostly, though she knows how to use a knife. Also her fists, nails, and teeth. She knows how to set traps, too.
Other: One of the Tomcat’s trusted lieutenants, second only to Toby. She’s sometimes called Tiger or Tigress, and she doesn’t mind the nickname, though she doesn’t make any effort to encourage it either.
She talks with a quick and chirpy guttersnipe accent, dropping letters like autumn trees drop leaves.

I finally made that second character...

Name: Finn 'Gadget'

Age: 17

Appearance: For 17 he's already quite tall but its clear he hasn't grown into it. Pretty thin and pale if you've ever seen him clean. He's usually covered in soot or some form of grime. Underneath it all he might actually be a little cute but its hard to tell. His hair is an brown with odd streaks of a much lighter almost blondish brown, its unruly as the rest of his appearance and if often also covered in dirt. His eyes are a curious greenish blue and he usually is either wearing goggles so you cant see them well or magnifying glasses so they look incredibly large.

Personality: He's young but he's quite clever. He's the kind of person who asks questions too quickly answers them himself and then forgets he asked a question. In short, inquisitive, smart and lackadaisical. How he ended up in the camp is a bit of a odd story but if you can get him to sit still for more than 5 minuets he'll tell you about it. He loves to fix things and you can literally incapacitate him by giving him a hard enough riddle. Its a quite a weakness because if he shuts down to solve the riddle while in the middle of a job problems can arise. He has the emotional intelligence of a 4 year old and thats being generous, he can barely read emotions and you have to be very clear about how you feel because he will NOT get it if you are vague. He loves helping people but he cant do it for free, that being said he'll make a weapon or fix something do it for trinkets others bring from outside the camp. He got his nickname for all the oddities he makes that really no one finds useful and its not uncommon for him to stop by those known with first aid skills because of these inventions and how they back fire. He's fairly well known for his eccentricities and his usefulness if you need a new weapon, just be sure to tell him not to add anything special if you don't need a rotating sword blade or a dagger that glows in the dark (no one is quite sure how he did that one)

Weapon: He has a several modified weapons but he rarely uses them

Other: He runs a well functioning smith but only at night because the smoke from the fires would give the camp away. He's constantly pushing the boundaries of the current technology and the results have a 50/50 chance of being disastrous. If he ever approaches you asking you to try out one of his inventions, do NOT say yes.

@Sapphire Nikki will say yes. =P This should be fun.

@shylarah they'll be fast friends then.

Hmm, so our gm is awol -- last online 7 days ago. I wouldn't mind taking on the GM role... Show of hands please: who's still here?

I'm here, I hope they're all right I know there's flooding going on in America.

Present.

Hope he's alright though.

@RomanAria I volunteer as loyal minion helper! ^.^

I'm here, and eager to start. I hope you're having a good trip.
