Almost done with character sheet! She's a somewhat unhinged DFA gunslinger.

@Raineh Daze Death From Above. It's a term often used in tabletop to describe characters who attack from, as Obi-Wan would say, the high ground, usually because of some kind of flying or jumping ability.

Just the three words would have done. It's more a case of "what acronym is this supposed to be". :P

Must be an American term or something, because it's the first time I've ever heard of it in that context. ^^;

...Blah, it never seems a good time to write up an intro for some reason. Hopefully things will work out on Sunday I guess.

I dunno, I've been into that kind of thing since I was 5 (so, like, 25 years) and again, never heard of it before so... ^^;

Very much a mystery. I've heard the phrase death from above in several contexts. I've never seen it abbreviated to DFA. Dragonfire Adept? That's the first thing I thought of, and that is a tabletop thing...

@Raineh Daze Ah shoot now I seem kinda pretentious, sorry. I always tend to overexplain things, even (and especially ;-;) to knowledgeable people. You can ask my girlfriend, the number of times I've given her Pokémon tutorials when she hasn't needed them...

To simplify all future things, just tell me what an acronym stands for. I'll be good then. <_>

Maybe it's just a Californian thing? I learned it as an abbreviation through general geek culture and internet, tho...

After consulting with people, apparently it's mostly a Battletech thing or something? So yeah. XD I mostly played Warhammer Fantasy when I was younger because, well, everyone else was playing it, so naturally it went over my head.

Of course, we don't play Warhammer Fantasy anymore. Stupid GW killing off the first fantasy setting I ever really got into. >:O

But anyways, uh, yeah.
