Yep. That's the idea. Gives the humbled ones something to do. "Damn it, Marty, I had him until you barged in! Oaf!"

Soooo... thinking about it. I've been trying to wrap my head around this whole "boundary" thing. I.E. How much freedom to allow and how much to leave up to the dice. After much pondering I think we should allow players to choose who to hit, with what, and what part of the body they wish to aim for. The dice can be brought in to fine-tune the where (e.g. jaw, temple, nose for a head shot - including near and total misses) and the how-much-is-it-gonna-hurt if you do connect. I'm not going to plan out all the dice rolls in advance - I'll come up with the options as and when needed. That should allow for the freedom of realising pre-set die rolls may not cover all avenues. So. With that settled I can start the first post and peeps can bring in their characters. First posts will be introductory and then, once everyone is settled, we can let things kick off some. But not right now. I just realised it's 5am, getting light, and I've been working here through the night...

I've written the first post, introducing my character (vaguely for now - no name, just getting him into the inn) and the three staff members.
Jodral is a female dwarf and runs the Drum (she's a relative of my other innkeeper, Bek). She's pretty handy with both her fists and blunt weapons. Beware, if she hits you then you'll know you've been hit. At least, once you've regained consciousness!
Sofania is the main serving girl. She's human, in her early twenties, and dreams of being swept of her feet by Mr. Right.
Limdia is a halfling girl and splits her time between the kitchen and helping out in the bar. She's a little clumsy sometimes, at least when she's feeling rushed and under pressure.
Turorn will be the name of my character. Despite Sofania's observations he actually a ranger. He's married to boot with a couple of sprogs. He's human and pretty much everything about him is average.
Let me know who your characters are here.
I haven't decided on HP yet but I figure I can leave a decision on that until the fighting starts at least.
In the meantime, I'm gonna start up the IC topic. I'll update players/characters/info as and when I get it.

Contrary to rumors, I am not dead yet, and I'm looking for trouble. Watch out!

Ok, I followed up my own post. Good grief -- what has happened to us? Pred, I thought we were going to start some trouble. I was positively looking forward to it!

Sometimes it would be nice to have a fight. Especially if I don't really need an icepack afterwards! I shall have to think about my character, though. Not sure if I want to be myself, my usual alter ego, or someone new.
