Roleplay Idea (Thoms one)

[Thomas Barkshield]

No rush, I was just wondering if anyone else was feeling impatient to start.

[Edraithel]

I fine with starting tomorrow evening or saturday.

[W0NWILL]

Saturday would probably be the best. I'm gone from the moment school starts all the way till nine. And by then, it's probably too late to start.

[Thomas Barkshield]

O.K. I'll put the topic up for tonight. Hope your all there!
Here are my characters:
Name: John

Race: Squirrel

Gender: Male

Appearance: Wears a green tunic with a golden trim.

Tools of war(weapons, armour, etc): Heater shield with stylized bark emblem, Hand and a half sword.

Backstory involving vermin band: Was adopted by Thomas Barkshields clan after being left to die by cruel parents. Went wandering for many seasons and came back to find half the clan slaughtered.

Other: This is the best place for me to say that Thomas started a wandering clan of mice shortly before his death. They started accepting others into the clan and spent more and more time in one place. They eventually started a village on the far outskirts of Mossflower. They are a bit like the abbey except for two major differences: members come and go often, and then are very much a clan of warriors rather than healers and peacekeepers.

Name: Bill

Race: Mole

Gender: Male

Appearance: Same green coloured tunic as John, but with a white trim rather than a gold one, signifying him as a cook rather than a warrior.

Tools of war(weapons, armour, etc): None except a collection of pots and pans and his trusty metal ladle.

Backstory involving vermin band: Out for revenge for the same reasons as John.

Other: Thomas's clan (Called the Bark warriors) have trims on their tunics signifying their rank and place in the clan. Gold is fighter, white is cook, yellow is healer, blue is the leader of the clan and no trim is a new recruit who doesn't know what to do.

Feel free for any of your characters to be part of the clan, I just thought of it this morning.

[Edraithel]

So who is the band of vermin lead by, where do they come from, what is their main goal? How is everyone going to be able to realize that they're chasing the same band?

[W0NWILL]

Name: Miriam

Race: Mouse

Gender: Female

Appearance: Miri is an average, but pretty mousemaid. She wears a green tunic with yellow trim.

Tools of war(weapons, armour, etc): Not much, she mostly uses a staff or sling.

Backstory involving vermin band: Same as Billy and Johnny.

Other: Bark warrior?

[Thomas Barkshield]

Accepted! Except yellow trim means healer, not warrior. You could say that she can defend herself, but it would be hard for her to be both a full warrior and healer.

Edit! I realize you mean she is part of the clan, which is totally fine. I guess I just wasn't thinking straight.

[W0NWILL]

I do that sadly often.

[Cornflower MM]

Sign ups still open?

Name:Arya Brushtail

Race:Squirrel

Gender:Female

Appearance:Nutbrown everywhere, except nose, ears and the tip of her tail. Those are back. Her eyes are blue. (The shade changes with her mood). She wears a dark brown tunic, with a plaited dyed belt, with matching scabbard for her sword. She wears fawn brown boots, and a dark brown jaunty looking hat, with a small Sparra feather in it. She looks her age: 25.

Tools of war(weapons, armour, etc):No armor. Her weapons are a bowq and arrows, and hand-and-a-half sword, and a dagger in her left boot.

Backstory involving vermin band: She was captured by them while napping on a streambank, and they made her a slave. She escaped a few seasons later, and is now out for revenge.

Other:

[Thomas Barkshield]

Very cool! Accepted. Sign ups will always be open, as it wouldn't be hard to incorporate new characters into the story. We could say that they stumble upon the group as they travel. We also need someone to play the vermin, now that I think about it. I'll play Ivan, but someone else could control a whole bunch of generic foebeasts. The only restrictions are that they must be rats or weasels.

[W0NWILL]

Oh dear, what does that mean for the pine marten I made as a former hordebeast?

[Thomas Barkshield]

They would make exceptions for exceptional fighters of course. They just don't want those ferret scum who cant shoot an arrer inta a barn door runnin wit dem. If you were a cook and a prodigy walked in and you said"I dont like you because your a ginger" then you'd be pretty dumb.

[W0NWILL]

Okay, so Eddy's safe. That's good.

[Cornflower MM]

Oh, great! How many charries are we allowed to have? I might make a vermin character.

[Thomas Barkshield]

For vermin, you could make a whole bunch of basic guys, only names required. And for those huntin the vermin, you can have as many as you like.
