@BurningCold I'm again gonna go with yes. I'm trying to answer your questions with as little information as possible for plot reasons. :P
EDIT: With the small novel that is your CS backstory ... forgive me if I find the idea of you struggling for content to be a little hilarious. :P
@MegaOscarPwn I actually think I have to say no on Ragnar in this current draft. There's two big reasons for that. One is that I read the sheet and I'm concerned he has no good progression arc. Unlike most of the sheets so far, Ragnar's arc isn't obvious. I don't see a path through which he grows as a character, which makes him rather flat against the rest of the cast. You don't need to tell me what it is, but that's something that I'm concerned about and I need to know you've thought through that before I approve anything.
The second is that I'm not convinced the gimmick of being a half-breed is really utilized properly. I'm only going to approve one of those characters and any prospective half-breed will be held to a higher standard than I would other CSs (for that reason). I feel like you've made some efforts for him to shrug off the constant barrage of scorn and make some interaction with society at large possible with "Body Reading". I think those mitigating factors really negate the power of the half-breed role as a plot device (which I think is the best way to think about it: a plot device rather than an attribute).
If you were just going for a really jacked guy with a tragic backstory (cliche admittedly, but they're a dime a dozen here so its sort of a prerequisite) then I don't think you need to use the half-breed plot device for that. I would accept that as a pureblood human (maybe a half-northman for extra stockiness) without any of the resignations I currently have.
Also please pay attention to which tab you're posting in. We don't need miscellaneous chatter in the characters tab. Thanks.
@Isotope Duly noted, I'll look at it as soon as I can. I still haven't read half the IC yet. :P
And everyone, Jeezus slow down! There is one of me and about ten of you and I'm only human. I have gotten virtually nothing else done today with the marathon of questions and CSs coming in that I was expecting to be dealing with over the course of days in an int check thread, not hours on Day Zero. (You guys are awesome)
