(Edited into this post)

Edit 2 - Story wise, what happened to the group after killing the goddess anyway?

And how much of the original groups memory is gone? Do they remember everything leading up to the battle, then the entire battle is gone, but they remember everything after the battle? Or is the entire original story gone/blurry?

And how many years has it been since the end of the original RP? I just realized I used Guy's age from the original, as did Celes (That's more of a guess, but usually 18 is the minimum).


Also, if Raiden's going to sign up, and use his old character, I shall say this right now. Anything involving that eye crap he had last time should be gone. And his little pet dragon should always remain a little pet dragon.

And yes, Zak = Elminster.

Just a note on size (and his feminine looks), concerning my character. I'm about 145 pounds and about 5'8", and I'm about two sizes bigger than my character (by picture).

Faeries are preternaturally beautiful and thin. They're also rather tall. So that's why he's tall, and only weighs about as much as I do (and I'm pretty thin). Also, note that the wording is 'beautiful' not 'attractive'. All faeries are effeminate. Very very effeminate. By fae standards he may be considered a pretty boy, but he wouldn't be mistaken for female. Female fae are all far 'prettier' than him.

I'm not sure on the rest.

Also, as to the drunk fighting:
Quote:

Drunks do not fight better. If you're drunk you're more likely to fall on your ass from swinging your sword than when you're sober.
That is only partially true. Yes, alcohol does screw up your balance and your motor skills, however, it also loosens up the body and dulls any feelings of pain, as well as allowing you to hit harder because you don't realize just how hard you're swinging your fist/sword/whatever (which also adds to the 'falling on your ass' bit). You'll notice H4x said something about his moves all looking like dumb luck... well, a drunken brawler (and there are a few fighting styles that rely on being drunk) looks just like that. Their motor skills are shot so they can't do the finess bits like everyone else, but, with a little training, they can control how they flop around really relaxed like. They also tend to hit harder and take blows without a lot of effect.

So, long story short: Yes, you are more likely to fall on your ass, but being only somewhat drunk would give you advantages to your ability to take blows and your ability to deal powerful ones.

Also, if Raiden and SS's characters are as moddy as IHMN is making them out to be, I may give my character his full range of powers from where he was created (summoning demons/djinns/elementals, making himself invincible for short periods of time, opening portals, teleportation, transfering magical power or stamina to health, or vice versa, etc. etc.) Right now, he's so young because I was planning on keeping his powers pretty normal for mages around here...

I think a major problem with h4x's character was he is a drunken brawler with a sword. That's just idiotic, because it's hard enough to control yourself, but now you have a giant sharp object in your hands.


And yes, their characters were over powered.

Raiden's guy could stop time first of all (And a time limit was never mentioned), and he had a little pet dragon that could turn into a big dragon (I think, I'm not sure about this part). But with the time stopping thing and his overall over powered fighting ability, he was god moddy.

And SS's guy was like that, but instead of time stopping he had magic swords and stuff. And he even had a strike force of super elven ninjas.

Most TWC characters in general were over powered.

No more idiotic than a strike force of super elf ninja... but slightly less so than a strike force of super moogle ninja.

I was just guessing. I remember my older characters used to be younger than I usually do now. And I'm pretty sure it's not too long after the events of the first Axiom. (A year or two at the very most)
I'm not sure about how much we remember though. I left that part out of my bio (or I'll change it later) just in case.

Inside joke that I doubt anyone here will get. It was to amuse myself, and it has succeeded wonderfully.

Gahhh I've been gone all day. So now its time for me to defend my character. (to those who have been for me thanks)
What I meant about being a drunk was that whenever the party got into a town, or set up camp he's likely to go drinking.
Also the reason I gave him a giant sword was that when he is drunk he is likely to have vision problems i.e. the "I can hit all 5 of you in one stroke," it was referring to his double vision and so forth. The sword is over sized so that it would have a wider/longer range so he would not have to swing directly at his opponent, but instead swing horizontally and still be likely to hit his opponent though he does not know his exact location.

About him fighting better though it seems like dumb luck meant that he would be appearing to swing the sword wildly. If extremely drunk no he will not be able to fight well and would probably miss every blow.

But if SS really doesn't want me here, I'm gone. He's GM its up to him, and Celes but I'm not going to get the two GMs to turn on eachother in a fight.

I think I'm gunna use boomerangs as my weapons. He can use wind to return them, and just metal tip them to have some chance of not being killed in a close up fight.
