Hi, can I join?

Name: Hussassan
Age: 357
Race: Esper
Class: Paladin
Magic Alignment: Black
Blood Type: AB+
Sex: Male
Appearance: Humanoid, but with scaly skin, dragon wings, a tail, claws, and a dragonlike head.

Hmm ... Okay, that'll work! Now ya just need to wait for us to come up with a quest.

OK. Do I have to stick to the spell list you make out, or can I invent my own?

I suppose that depends on what I didn't cover... What've you got in mind?

Not really sure...depends on what's going on.

Gimme an example. I mean, would it be simple variations like Megid instead of Fire3 or a same-effect-but-more-awesome-looking-special-effects deal, or is it something completely different?

I was thinking something more like making weapons out of thin air which disappear when the battle ends, or psychically controlling prison guards, that sort of thing.

Hmm ... No, the weapon thing is beyond /traditional/ magic, but I suppose you could wing it with the mind-control thing.

Is this thing still running? Because if it is, I would like to join!

Name: Brother Bob
Age: 43
Race: Esper
Class: Monk
Magic Alignment: Yellow
Sex: Male
Appearance: black hair slicked back, brown eyes, black robes.

Well, sure. All we need to do now is, er, get a new adventure started.

And how many people do you need to do that?

Well, the optimal number of party members is around four, although there's plenty of games that have five (Phantasy Star 4, Lunar, Final Fantasy 4) or three (Final Fantasy 7, Super Mario RPG, Chrono Trigger); nearly all action RPGs have one party member, and Final Fantasy XI allows up to eighteen, although this is more along the lines of three six-member parties teaming up.

MeMeMe, I wanna join!

I'm LeonardQuirm (Leonard of Quirm, inventor from the Discworld books), colloquially known as LQ, Lenny, or Falcon (it's my RPG character's name, OK? I don't really care which you call me...as long as it isn't Sheila (GTA:VC is cool)).
Age: 18
Race: Human. I could do with some luck.
Gender: Ooh, he's called Leonard, difficult...Male
Class: Cleric (I'm a weakling). God of choice: The Man in Blue
Magic Colour: Well, white, seeing as I don't have much choice.
Appearance: Erm....I dress in blue, in reverence to my God, am clean shaven, in reverence to my girlfriend (who I leave behind in whichever town I come from) and wear glasses (ooh, lots of possibilities for messing me up).

Invoking my god...super-cool special effects version of Cure Also; if I ask really nicely (and don't expect any more appearances for a little while), he'll use Blue Power...different graphics (you'll see them when it happens), effect of Hyper Light. Is that OK?

And do I get to use other white magic as well? And the odd yellow magic (like making party members stronger), as it says in the description?

I await the next adventure, as I really don't want to read all the stuff so far in the current adventure.

I've changed my mind. I'm going to force my way into the current adventure!

Um, fine. I suppose it'll make as much sense as any /other/ new player character suddenly coming out of fricking /nowhere/ in a D&D campaign ...

That was about my reasoning, yes...
I hope my previous post wasn't too impolite...I'm sorry if it was. I really haven't been doing too well with tact and etiquette recently...

Any room for 1 more.

Gender: Male
Ability: Master of hysterical wit and adlib humour, transforms the opposition into a quivering wreck. Plus a few tricks up the sleeve when required.

Uh, you kind of need a class, and actual proficiency. We want to be at least SOMEWHAT realistic here.

Is there any possibility I can join in?
