When you have to disable a new 'advanced' search to get proper search results and learn that 'advanced' means 'AI'. Let's rename it artificial superficiality, short 'AS'. Not to be confused with...

I'm slightly proud of myself having overcome my hate for indoor spiders a bit over the years. In my youth I often eliminated them, now I carry them outside in a jar. Spiders here are harmless though.

Believe me, if they could, the entirity of Southern Germany would send you all the rain they had over the last couple of days. I'm just not sure you'd actually want the widespread destruction.

Finally managed to catch the mouse. Our cat must consider me the most incompetent person of all times given how she watched instead of helping. She dragged the problem in though!

Bio


Welcome to my profile page!


Who the hell is this person behind those many miles of fiber optics and copper cable ?

  • I'm a 34 year old guy.
  • ... who's working as a software developer
  • ... and enjoys roleplaying as a casual hobby to distract himself from ongoing stress


And into which hell will I descend with you participating in one of my roleplays?

  • I'm a fantasy addict: medieval high and low!
  • I'd consider myself to be a low casual roleplayer, 3 paragraphs per post on average.
  • My schedule varies. It might happen that I won't be able to post at all for a week, but then again it might happen that I'll reach a sweet spot inside which I can go on a posting rampage. I'd say one can expect 1-2 posts a week from me, depending on the lengths involved.
  • English is not my native language, but so far I've not encountered anyone who had had trouble with me over that :)


Want to RP with me ? Shoot me a PM, but don't shoot me!



Thanks for visiting!

I'm thinking about making an appliance for this.

What are the posting requirements (frequency etc.) ? I don't wanna to mess things up due to personal time restrictions.
@TheUnknowable So I managed to screw up in record time it seems. Sorry for that. The post was ambiguous for me since there are a lot of new people if you don't make that assumption. Should I edit the last bit of my post so that Agmundr doesn't direct his words to your character anymore ?
I think it might be because the formatting gets all janky if you go from notepad to the site's posting box and some people don't wanna deal with that.

The problem with notepad is that if you activate the 'line break'-option, that crazy program inserts linefeed/carriage-return into the actual text instead of just rendering it with linebreaks to avoid horizontal scrolling. Another thing that is confusing comes with Word/OpenOffice: A paragraph there technically is something entirely different than a linefeed in a 'simple' editor/textbox. My advice is to get an advanced editor that is designed for coding - saves you all kinds of such formatting troubles.

However even the best editing tool can't save you from loosing more than half your character archive if you're just too lazy for making regular, diverse (in terms of storage technology) and well-organized backups. That's what happened to me and it got me kinda pissed off about myself.
Agmundr felt a bit dizzy. That cruise had not exactly improved his general condition, but he was fit to walk down the ramp and - finally! - reach solid ground. He had his difficulties to keep up his speed of comprehension with the Lord's introduction and when the Emperor's cousin had finished, he decided that it would require a bit more than that rush to fully explain the situation to him. What he did understand right now was that the supplies were scarce and the scouts were here to remedy. That wasn't surprising... In fact Agmundr was astonished that the Empire had got that fort itself up and running so fast.

When Jile approached, he was the first to put out his massive hand. "I'm Agmundr - afraid I don't know anything about magic. Hope that won't be a problem."
@Athinar I was thinking about letting my character search for a refuge there once he had his close call with the assassin. Once he's stone he's completely defenseless. However his exact behaviour would pretty much depend on the severity of his injuries (feel free to PM me for the planning of this event @shaitarn)
@Athinar The Quaela looks luxurious. I guess that renting a room, and be it only very temporarily, might cost to much for a certain gargoyle ? And is he, being a flying supernatural, susceptible to that permanent 'go around it'-feeling and the shield ?
@TaliPaendrag Thanks for the helpful posting. Given Agmundr's current physical description as being very tall and no less bulky I think it can be assumed that he actually does weigh a lot more than an average person. However what about him simply taking off the stuff before he mounts ? Would solve the problem and it should be doable quite fast since his type of armor is not sophisticated. If there should occur a situation that doesnt allow for this, he can probably just go on with it and take the penalty of overburdening his horse (being slower, drained more quickly or sth.). I'd perfectly agree with adding that as a minor weakness to his CS, as it seems to be a logical consequence. @TheUnknowable
@shaitarn OK, I'm looking forward to this.

A pub would be really fun and boost the possibility to socially interact. I could imagine Vaughtar to go there regularly. Don't wanna let him run entirely on some mysterious and more or less inexhaustible magic energy source - and if he makes an attempt to get himself stuffed or even drunk it'll most likely be a feast XD
So I assume that's nothing to really worry about now. However should I do a bit of research on this topic and inform you about the results just in case it comes out that I should tweak the character a bit as long as its easily possible ?
Okay, CS was moved to Characters tab as it was.

Something that came to my mind when already talking about mounts is that a horse could groan noticeably with him in the saddle, esp. with his armor on. Might that be a problem ?
