Eliseo Francis Doomwaffle III

http://www.myth-weavers.com/sheet.html#id=16120

Name: Meisu Colara, Acolyte of the Order of Neube, The Great Cosmic Frog (Praise be unto him!)

A man of few ideals other than his own, yet given wholly to his faith, Meisu resides in the floating tower outside the city of Torn. The priests of his order worship the diety known as the Great Cosmic Frog, Neube, who created the entire world and all planes of existence with his first mighty croak (referred to as the Primordial Throat Song). They pledge his existence and great divinity with the utmost of conviction and belief.

Meisu was given to the order as an offering and was trained in their ways from birth. He was however a tad reckless and a bit of a disgrace when he failed to fully contain all of the teachings of the Great Neube and found himself guilty of breaking the three great relics of the faith after a botched attempt of the 3rd Holy Croak Stance. Meisu was shamed throughout the order. In 'punishment,' and to atone for his sins, he was sent to find the fourth and greatest of the relics of Neube, believed to be found in the Planar Labyrinth. Meisu accepted without delay. He would find the Divine Water Skin and redeem his name. For the Great Neube!

Goal: To retrieve the Divine Water Skin from the holdings of the Planar Labyrinth.

Goal: To gain redemption and attain High Priest of Neube through his diligence and faith after retrieving the Divine Water Skin from the holdings of the Planar Labyrinth.

Goal: To spread the faith of the Great Neube to all beings who need or seek solace in their mortal lives before, during, and after retrieving the Divine Water Skin from the holdings of the Planar Labyrinth.

That really was a solid GoG reference btw. I had to walk to my bed just so I could fall on it laughing.

Cool beans, man. Are we still waiting on Max? And what is the plan once everyone is ready? Were we going to play over skype, or just over the message board? Should we meet in person for the first session?

It's going to be somewhat of an experiment: I'm hoping to play it entirely over the message board at a brisk pace of one post every day (or two) to keep things moving consistently. It may still be slower than meeting once a week, but I like the format in that it allows me to handle multiple people more easily and meeting over the board is easier to arrange than meeting in person. If it goes too slowly (I'm particularly concerned about combat) we'll arrange dates for us to meet over skype to play on the message board for a dedicated evening.

Cool beans, man. Just gonna put it out there, I'm game for meatspace sessions as well if any of those are going to happen at any point. I'm really digging the 5e rules from what I've seen and I'm honestly pretty excited to get started.

On that note, when will we do that thing?

As am I.

I've given Max a call to give one final check whether he's in or out. If he's out, then we have all the sheets (Not a bad spread of classes either) and we'll get started ASAP. Expect the opening post sometime before Wed in another thread, then just reply to it IC. If you have something to add OOC, please put it in the OOC thread

Could he possibly just join us on the road, after he's made the character?

Despite my best efforts to wait until the last minute, I guess I've finished Herschel's backstory before Ryan starts the game.

M. Herschel Pierce, Wizard

A born scholar, M. Herschel Pierce spent most of his comfortable with his nose in a book, exploring the country around his family’s manor, or gazing at the stars. With neither his eldest brother’s charismatic nature nor his sister’s warrior spirit, Herschel spends most of his time trying to unravel the secrets of the world around him. After discovering his magical talent, Herschel followed in his father’s footsteps and enrolled in the Rogrest University of Magic once he is old enough. If Herschel could be the first to map the Planar Labyrinth, it would be a great boost to his academic career.

Herschel’s great love is astronomy and he has spent many nights studying the heavens with his tutor Lucretius. He hopes to test Lucretius’ theory that the other worlds in the Planar Labyrinth are really part of our own Material Plane by studying their skies.

Herschel was in Torn visiting his sister Tabitha when Mrzfdpnk attacked. She and her brethren in the Winged Company fought bravely against the horrors that Mrzfdpnk brought forth, but were unable to last for long. Herschel caught up with his sister just in time to see her dragged back through the rift by a mysterious figure with dandelion hair and emerald-colored suit. Even three years later, Herschel hopes more than anything to be able to find a way to bring her back home…alive.

Goals:

  • Find his sister Tabitha and bring her home.
  • Test Lucretius’ theory that the other worlds in the Planar Labyrinth are actually other planets on our own Material Plane.
  • Be the first to completely map the Planar Labyrinth back to the Zyx homeworld.


Allies and Associates:

  • Rotimer Pierce, Baron of Darrowdale - Rotimer is Herschsel’s father, an accomplished wizard and former adventurer. As a reward for his heroic deeds many years ago, he was awarded the small barony of Darrowdale and allowed to marry Marilyn Bledsoe. Not long after retiring, Rotimer returned to the Rogrest University of Magic where he is a senior professor in the College of Transmutation. Rotimer never had much interest in managing the estate of Darrowdale himself, leaving most of the duties to his wife Marilyn (much to her frustration). Instead, he preferred his magical research and was proud when Herschel showed his own magical talent. While not thrilled at Tabitha’s tomboyish and unlady-like behavior, Rotimer supported her as much as he could in her quest to be a mighty warrior. Still, he often wished that she might choose a safer occupation.

  • Marilyn Pierce, neé Bledsoe, Baroness of Darrowdale - Marilyn Pierce grew up in a moderately powerful noble family. She met Rotimer Pierce while he was still an adventurer and they became infatuated. Due to his common status, they were not allowed to formally court until he was awarded a barony and her hand in marriage for his heroic deeds. Used to a life of privilege, it was difficult for Marilyn to adjust to her lower noble status and misses courtly life. She is frustrated by Rotimer’s disinterest in managing the Darrowdale estate and ends up handling most of the daily tasks herself. She sees her children as a way to climb the social ladder and secure the family’s position in the nobility. She strongly disapproved of Tabitha’s tomboyish habits growing up and opposed her becoming a warrior. She wishes Herschel would show more interest in “real life matters” and less time on “academic fancies.”

  • Tabitha Pierce, Sergeant of the Winged Company - Tabitha is the middle Pierce child and spent her childhood outside romping in the woods with her brothers rather than sewing and learning music with her mother. She proved athletic at an early age and used to spar with her older brother William and Meleke the dwarf. Brash and headstrong, she fought frequently with her mother Marilyn. When she came of age, Tabitha left home to join the Winged Company, a mercenary company whose warriors are famed for their skill with lance and saber. She quickly demonstrated her skills as being equal or better than any of her peers and rose quickly to the rank of sergeant. Tabitha disappeared during Mrzfdpnk’s attack three years ago. Her company was in Torn when the rift opened and fought against the horrors that it unleashed. Herschel caught up with her just in time to see her dragged through the rift by a man with a strange emerald suit and dandelion hair.

  • William Pierce, heir of Darrowdale (Deceased) - William was the oldest Pierce child and heir to the title. Strong, tall, and charismatic, he was beloved by both of his parents. Unlike Herschel and Tabitha, he developed a great interest in politics and courtly life. Marilyn instructed him in the ways of estate management and William seemed to be developing into a capable landlord. As the oldest son, William was trained to fight with martial weapons but never attained the skill of his sister Tabitha. Just a couple years after she joined the Winged Company, William rode with a posse of local men to fight off an orc raiding party and was slain in combat.

  • Lucretius, Pierce family tutor - The elf Lucretius is an old friend of the Pierce family and one of Rotimer’s original magic tutors. When Rotimer settled down, he invited Lucretius to stay at the estate and tutor his children. Now that the children have grown, Lucretius once again teaches at the Rogrest University of Magic and is a senior professor in the College of Divination. Lucretius’ magic specializes in divination but his true passion lies in astronomy. He has spent centuries studying the skies and the movement of celestial bodies. He believes that many of the stars could have their own planets and theorizes that the Planar Labyrinth is the key to travelling between these distant worlds.
