h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Name: Tal'Set
Age: Somewhere around 5000
Occupation: Captain of the Leviathans Kindred and Ruler of the Leviathan Corsairs.

Glad to have you aboard, Tal'Set.

Hi there folks...

My name is Kyrai, a young lass from pretty much anywhere... it's difficult to tell really, and she's not about to say too much about that to anyone.

The only real distinuishing traits she has are a real flair for archery, the ability to seemingly dissolve into the shadows at will, and an occasionaly acid tongue, with which she takes no prisoners if queried about her family...

What's the verdict then folks?

If you need help, she'll gladly see what her own personal mission can do to help...

Tyri (that's pronounced 'Teeri')
Race: Human
Age: 24
Description: A traveller with a sing-song accent (which I won't type cause it's a pain to do so.) She avoids the law where possible and prefers to hide in the shadows. Her muscular, heavy physique makes her good in a fist-fight but she has a variety of easily concealable weapons, her favourite being a blow-pipe. She also carries a broad lknife which can be used for throwing or combat.

Tyri has two 'familiars', ferret-like creatures called Yoka and Tola (sometimes they're referred to as one entity, 'Yokatola'.) They can confuse things in a fight and are also sneak thieves, useful for picking up small items such as keys.

Two new female assassins? Weird, but... Welcome to Heroes of Legend!

"It's a conspiracy..." (Grabs a canned drink from the cooler and is just about to open it when he see it's -

YOKATOLA KOLA)

"EEK!" Throws the can in the general direction of the door and bolts for the closet, where he trembles for several minutes in the dark, mumbling:

"... Mommy..."

[Thinks about signing his name: quill hovering above the parchment]

[Gandark] Time Mage
Race: Elf, High Elf. (I guess)
Age: Have time traveled waay too much to tell.
Description: I am, like, this elf who somehow went off into space and forgot all about where he came from, discovered he could use magic, and then returned, bewildered and confused, not even knowing what he had lost....

An Elf with Amnesia? This is going to be interesting... he'll have half the Evadian Arms trying to convince him he owes them money!

I be Simmo the Hobbit.

I be wrapped in a habit of grey, supported by knarled staff...

Not really amnesia. I was born to elvish parents, mysteriously lost, and raised on another planet. Never having heard of an "elf" I was told the pointy ears was a birth defect and was laughed at alot.

When I got older, I discovered I had magic abilites, and somehow returned to these lands to find my heritage, if I have one. And at this point, I enter the story.

I've been playing on several RPGs with the character name Gandark, but never came up with this story until just now off the top of my head, i'm just typing here to kinda get ideas sorta kinda.

Ah, I see. Well then, you should head to the Evadian Arms in the Old World, or the Traveller's Tale in Middle Earth.

fionchadd, a wood elf, somewhat gifted in the art of magic. tall and slender, she doesnt say much, and spends alot of her time staring into the distance (always best not to ask what she is thinking).

Welcome Fionchadd! I look forward to seeing you in one of the many Taverns that litter this RPG...

(Note: adventures ALWASYS start in tavens. Noi-one knows why, but there you go.)

thanks, but how do i get to a tavern? does someone have to start a conversation, or is there one already going?
