No one else volunteered to take care of the RPG and Ryikko is away for a substantial amount of time.

I can't be the only one with responsibilities aboard that Zeppelin though :D

Just so you know, equipment costs double what it would normally cost so your light armour and shield both cost 4pts rather than the 2pts that heroes usually get it for. Luckily still fits within the 50pt limit so you're fine :D Having another elf is no problem either. A lizardman would look a bit out of place :smirk:

I'll PM you about joining the play thread.

There's never too many people for an RPG, although it may been the skirmishes become full blown battles at this rate :D

If you want to join King, send me a PM with your proposed character

Same goes for you Sotek...

And just a heads up for the rest of you, AMA has also asked to join with a Witch Hunter :D He'll be along shortly I expect...

Burn them all!

Your quest has drawn the attention of Witch Hunter Mattias van Hal, son of the great Witch Hunter, Wilhelm van Hal, nephew to Johann van Hal, more famous but less effective.

Name: Matthias van Hal (Witch Hunter)

Age: 55

Appearance: Dark and Grim. He is below average height and bulky, whether fat or muscle cannot be determined. His face is scarred both from cuts and burns, which gives him a very lop-sided appearance, with one side in a permanent frown. Wears stiff dark tall leather hat with silver Sigil of Sigmar on the front of the band under which his long straight grey hair hangs down at the back and sides. Other outer clothing and cloak is well-made but dark and non-descript. He wears a corslet and gorget with a metal stock covering the throat and another Sigil of Sigmar on the front. The stiff while collar of his blouse covers the stock on the sides. He rides a good, but small sturdy horse, more suited to travelling in rough country than speed, more endurance than flash.

Background: A veteran Witch Hunter. The rest is none of your business!

Weapons & Armour : Hand weapon (Rapier), repeating pistol (blessed by Sigmar), pistol (blessed by Sigmar), corslet and gorget (with vampire bite protection, counts as light armour), warhorse, several bags, and weapons cases, and anything else is none of your business!

Stats: M WS BS S T W I A Ld
--------8--4---5--3-3-2-3-1-7

Abilities/Special Rules: Fast cavalry and none of your business!

Total Points: 37 (Outrider Champion) + 10 (Increased WS) = 47pts

OOC: For those familiar with Dark Omen, appearance is similar to Witch Hunter Matthias, but much braver :D . If not, Google Johann van Hal and Wilhelm Hasburg, DoW witch hunters and see what the witch hunter model looks like. For those familiar with Harry Potter expect a lot of the real Mad-Eye Moody, otherwise look to my Avatar.

Corruption is all around us. Sigmar died so we all could live. The prepared mind preserves the faithful heart!

OOC: I must try and find some of the 40K battle reports from Lord Lecter and the Opera of Death under 3rd ed. Very different.

you might need to change it to squished elder alchemist

EDIT: I think we might have lost Thistledown completely, he hasn't visited the site itself for a month now

I like AMA although at first I thought it looked like an Inquisitor :confused:

And I think we definitely have lost Thistledown. Even though he last visited on 29th June, he hasn't posted since 4th June.

We can either keep Ameal with us and someone can have two characters or we can lose him at the next village or something...

hey guys. i will be joining at the next village with a wild rider champion. here's my character:

Name: Lathori Yendaith

Age: 143

Appearance: Tall, elegant and laid-back, with piercing dark green eyes appear to glow with fey magic, for wild riders are no longer fully elves. Although laid-back normally, in the crucible of battle he usually reveals his more ferocious side. Shoulder-length dark brown hair shadows the scars across the left side of his neck and down to his shoulder. Like most Wild Riders, he wears no upper body clothing aside from a thick brownish-gray wolf skin cloak laid across his broad shoulders, showing his trim, yet muscle-bound figure covered in swirling blue tattoos. He does, however wear brown leather bracers, boots, and pants also with swirling blue designs printed across them. He carries a long spear with numerous charms tied just below the spear tip including feathers and talons from birds of prey and claws and fangs from various forest predators. He also carries a shield of white oak with Charoi, the elven rune for strength and ferocity, painted in green on its face. His gray elven steed also sports the same swirling tattoos as well as countless severed beastman heads tied to its saddle.

Background: Just as with many of individuals hunting Scabrender, Lathori's is for personal vendetta. About 25 years ago, soon after he was chosen to become a Wild Rider, a horde of beastmen led by Scabrender attacked his family's sacred glade and slew his parents and older brother. From that moment forth, he dedicated his life to hunting and killing any beastmen he could find, vowing to his younger sister that he would avenge their parents' and brother's deaths and take Scabrender's head as a symbol of his vengeance.

Weapons & Armor: Beastbane (spear), hand weapon, thick wolf skin cloak (light armor), shield, elven steed

Stats: M9 WS5 BS4 S4 T3 W2 I5 A2 Ld9

Abilities/Special Rules: Fast Cavalry, Forest Spirit, Talismanic Tattoos, The Fury of Kurnous

Total Points: Wild Hunter (44) + Shield (4) = 48

Question... If We choose to "lose" Ameal at the next village can I get another stand in character until we can comfirm that Thistledown isn't here anymore, and if we do confirm he is no longer in I do plan to have one of my two characters two die in the next major battle, it depends on who I like RPing more the will survuve. :D

Well, if we lost Ameal I wasn't planning on replacing him because we've already got three new players, and possibly a fourth. Either we keep Ameal and someone else takes over, or we lose him and just stick to the three (possibly four) new characters.

And AMA, don't get going trigger happy on us :smirk: Like I said, I might have to get one of the elves to shoot you :D
