Hey Thanks, He kind of turned out that way on accident. I just started writing his backstory and had a general concept for him, but his story and character just kind of wrote itself. It's fun when that happens.Boccaccio Barbarossa wrote: I'm totally down with Alain and I can really piture him just from the tidbits you've put down so far - perceptive, intelligent, not altogether caring about fashion but forced to pretend a little...

Yeah, when it just sort of happens really is the best feeling. And I tend to find that, when I game, I only have a really good idea of who my character is after role-playing him a couple of sessions, seeing how he/she reacts.BigBadQDaddy wrote:Hey Thanks, He kind of turned out that way on accident.

Definitely. What did you expect? - It's a Ravenloft game!Fido wrote:Hhmpf. Ivid's trying to cheat us!
No, really... Ivid was my PC in most of my Greyhawk campaigns, as well as the Black Sluggard was my avatar in Birthright...
Both ended up in the mists, Ivid because he's so pure, the dwarf because he's so mean...
Merowech, btw, was from a Blackmoor game and also entered the mists TWICE...
I can tell you this now because you're unlikely to see them again...
That said, did really noone know who Lowellyn Dachine is?

Yeah: I missed the reference. But then again, we NEVER talk/address necropolis in our game. We just sort of skipped that part.Desdichado wrote:Nono... He's the Darklord of Necropolis! (IMC, valiant heroes freed the city of his rule, and he vanished in a misty cloud...) Don't worry, it's something one only comes to know either reading Gaz II very comcetratedly or playing the old requiem series.

Don't worry about it. Stick with us and your DM/players won't see you coming. You'll know some many references you won't be able to keep track of them all.kintire wrote:I am a Ravenloft newbie. I've read a soucebook or two, but can be relied on to miss any reference beyond the utterly obvious!
On the other hand, that might not be the best thing.

Actually, that's excellent - the less you know right from the beginning, the more you enjoy the game - after all, a player who read all the books, with what can I surprise him/her?kintire wrote:I am a Ravenloft newbie.
