Current Is it just me or has the number of ads increased rather dramatically? I'm seeing them in the middle of people's posts now.

Did not expect to see a new mobile layout today. Definitely different and it'll probably take some getting used to.

They don't dark. That dignity left awhile ago with the earlier secret lairs. Though I do still enjoy MtG and D&D personally.

I don't think I'd be able to drink only one cup of coffee in the morning or a day. Then again I've started measuring my consumption in ounces most recently.

I am fine with starting now. Just wasn't sure if Oak was wanting to wait for more.
Are we going to need to wait for more people or will the two of us plus the GM/DM be enough?
@Saquira Welcome, you'll find plenty of sci-fi and fantasy rps. Some have elements of both I'm sure.
Welcome.
Welcome @DoctorGonzo.
This looks interesting, even if it would be simply following.
@Master Mayhaps you have.
Name: Bóthilda Sørensdotter

Occupation: Trader/warrior

Height: 5’11”

Weight: 164

Appearance: Long red (a bit dirty as well) hair drawn back into a braid, she has more smaller braids on the sides of her head held in place with different beads, bright blue eyes, pale white skin, high cheek bones and slight widow's peak, wiry build, long legged and long arms. She wearswool pants, a studded leather brigandine over a undyed wool shirt, leather boots, and fingerless fur gloves.

Personality: Seeks to become renown enough as a warrior to be personally invited to the Earl Hjalmar’s hall to be named a Thane. Operates as a trader when there is not much going on in the means of raiding or defending her home.

Background history: Growing up in the Wood Hollow, a village in the far south eastern region of Harkland, Bóthilda started learning from a young age the craft of trade from her mother and father.

Her father, aside from being a trader, was also a warrior for the village guard and taught his daughter how to fight with shield and axe.

To her mother's displeasure she started taking to ways of the warrior. One of the first major factors was the tales she heard of the valkyries. Another of the major factors came is from seeing a procession of shield maidens with a Thane of Harkland pass through their village when she was ten. Since then she has trained with both boys and girls to hone her skills as a warrior. She has also in recent years aided in defending the village from wild beasts as well as goblins.

Now, on her sixteenth nameday, she sets out from her village to see the world beyond her village. Before she left her father gave Her his old pine shield and axe. Her mother gave her an amulet engraved with the symbol for the valkyries. Both of them gave her enough provisions to make it to Serpentstone and enough pennies and marks to buy more.

Her first destination is Serpentstone, traveling with an uncle in a trade caravan, and from there she isn't sure where she will go next
@Oak7ree Thanks, that will help a lot.
Ok, I'll probably be adding more to her backstory after I get off work.
