Locked in a Room

Yeah this sounds like a good concept, I think I'll definitely be interested.

Enter The Lichberg: Round Robin Dungeon-Crawling Adventure!

With faded brown green scales, and clad in flexible leather armour and cloth, Kij strikes a formidable figure even standing only at 5'3.
Name: Kij'hara

Race: Slith (Lizardperson)

Personality: Kij'hara is, suffice to say, more comfortable in the company of shadows and thieves than the more socially acceptable kinds, finding they often tend to talk less than others. She prefers the quiet people, the people who don't need to say much to convey what they want or need, and she will often lapse into a 'comfortable' silence that can be misconstrued – by the louder types – as uncomfortable, or even expectant. She is unusually lacking in her ability to judge what would be appropriate to say and what would not, resulting in her often saying the wrong thing to the wrong person and getting herself in trouble. However, over time she has learnt to know when to not say anything at all, so as to limit the amount of fights she finds herself in due to her lack of judgement. Staying silent also causes anger, she has found, but it is often less physical. She is distrusting and fearful of Orcs in particular, and views each and every one as lowly mercenary scum.

Background: Kij'hara was born on the far outskirts of a small village in the west of Ruritania. She grew up with five other siblings, but would spend more time exploring the forest than playing with her sisters and brothers, preferring to be alone. Her parents were hunters who supplied meat for the village, and – knowing the local forests – let their children roam freely once they were able to look after themselves. Kij learnt how to climb trees, forage, and handle a knife, all well before the age of ten. On her thirteenth birthday, when most of her other siblings had left home to become apprentices (or were too young to do so yet), she asked to be taught how to hunt, and, in time, continue the family business. Her parents were glad to take her on as an apprentice and over the course of two years she learnt the job; how to shoot a bow, and how to move quickly and quietly, unseen by deer or a boar. At the age of seventeen, secure in her apprenticeship and almost fully trained, she decided to make her first overnight trip on her own, hunting larger prey. She set out at dawn, and returned with the carcass of her fallen prey at dusk of the following day. Welcoming faces did not greet her when she returned home, as expected, but instead she watched from afar as the corpses of her parents were cremated in the fire that ate through their house. Bandits, primarily Orcish, had raided her house, murdered her parents, and burned what they could not steal. She did not wait for them to find her, and turned back into the forest.
For the next few years she lived off the land and, although she departed the forests where she had been born after only a few months, did not go back to civilization unless the winter was particularly harsh and she was driven to buy food or clothing. However she began to grow tired of the constant restlessness of her life and sought to settle down, finally venturing into the city to find somewhere to live. She stayed for three months with her younger sister, but after many subtle hints (and being directly told to her face that she was no longer welcome to stay), she began to look for a job to earn money with. By a chance of fate, she heard the rumours regarding the Old Country, and – deciding that it was a sign that she was doing the wrong thing – set about finding more information...

Abilities: She is deft at using a knife and bow, and when she is unable to catch anything to eat herself can set traps that do the job for her. Although unused to climbing stone or buildings, she is nimble and can use her claws to find small pits and dents to hold on to, making her capable of climbing most structures, natural or unnatural. Her training and skill in hunting also result in her being light on her feet, able to blend in with the shadows and go undetected.

Equipment:
A flatbow and a knife. Though used primarily for hunting, they are also suitable for combat.
A water pouch and a basic medicine kit (which also contains rations of dried meat, etc).
Leather armour, worn and patched but still usable.

@Disciple Cain Ok yeah that's a pretty good idea, I'll go back and edit that in. Might make for some interesting group dynamics.
Never mind, nothing to edit in I don't think. I'm sure it'll pop up somehow in the RP.

Enter The Lichberg: Round Robin Dungeon-Crawling Adventure!

Hey ok, so hopefully this will be acceptable, let me know if there's anything that needs changing, etc. (Sorry for going for the stereotypical unsociable stealthy type character, couldn't get any more unoriginal I know, I know.)

Aww you bet she does - I thought I'd balance out the spread of talents! Ok I'll have it posted in an hour, give or take half an hour, just gotta edit some stuff. Do we know when the RP is actually going to start? Presumably when Scrapula returns, I guess?

Witch Trials (Title up for change)

So uh, I noticed this a while back but completely forgot to follow it... I noticed you already have four/five characters, and there are probably more on the way, but would it be too late to join if I get a move on?

Enter The Lichberg: Round Robin Dungeon-Crawling Adventure!

Here. Sorry the character is taking so long, I'll hopefully have it completed tonight, and if not, tomorrow. If people want to start I'm happy to catch up, but I gather Scrapula is busy so I presume I have a little more time. Are we waiting on anyone else for character sheets? @Disciple Cain Thanks for the race name idea, and also Exile/Avernum seems very interesting, I'll have to have another look at it (after RP work, of course.)

Enter The Lichberg: Round Robin Dungeon-Crawling Adventure!

Slith.

@Disciple Cain

That was crazily quick. Sort of reminds me of something... I mean I don't know it from anywhere but I swear it sounds similar to something. So where'd it come from anyway?

Enter The Lichberg: Round Robin Dungeon-Crawling Adventure!

Working on my character now! So, I was wondering, can anyone think of a better name for lizardmen than, well, lizardmen?

Enter The Lichberg: Round Robin Dungeon-Crawling Adventure!

I'm definitely interested in this, and will probably start working on my character as soon as possible (tonight, or tomorrow). I do have one question though, I don't know if I've missed this, but what races are there to play? I know that somebody else has done an orc that has been accepted, so are we talking the traditional, dwarves, orcs, halflings, elves, etc?
