Meh. It'll still probably be my favorite race out of all of them either way. You can't beat epic beards.  :P

Okay, Angie. This is going to take me awhile to answer all of your questions, so I am going to do this bit by bit.

Hey, no problem. There's no great rush.

I am going to refrain from comment in this thread until you're finished so as not to fill it up with a lot of babble and nonsense and, in addition, analyze the world as a collective entity before giving serious feedback.

Merely posting a declaration of interest.

Also, would magical talent be common, rare, only available to the scholarly? Or have I misread?  :D

Magic would be VERY rare, however, those few who could use it would be revered in some societies and vilified/hunted in others. There will be a post on some of the more well-known magic users, and how "magic" basically works in this setting. However, at this point, none of the player characters will be permitted to be magic users.

That's about in line with what I expected. Thanks for the clarification.

Yeah, I'm trying to keep this BB more in line with a "quasi-historical fiction setting" and less high fantasy, though there are certainly at least a few fantasy elements.

School ends next week, and as such, I will finally be able to commence the Estershadow BB for those who are interested. Over the next two weeks, I will continue to post information relevent to the setting and put up a post for character generation.

The character generation guidelines are available for your use. If you intend on participating in the Estershadow BB, please PM me ASAP so I know who is playing.

Just throwing it out there:  I'm going to be making a stealthy thief/smooth talker/dirty fighter/drug addict from Coldview.  If anybody wants to collaborate our character histories together, I'm 100% open to any ideas you might have, and I think it'd be cool to have somebody else my character knows pre-game. 

PM me if anybody's interested, and if you want to talk at length, I'd be glad to provide a number or get on Skype or Ventrilo.

Is this still going to happen?  I haven't heard anything from anybody about it who was originally interested.  I was looking quite forward to it. XD

If so, I'm going to rewrite what I have of my character history to be a little more compact and consistent, and probably won't involve another person's character anymore since I haven't heard from them for about a month.

I have merely been patiently waiting for players to submit their characters. I had hoped to get this going weeks ago, but no one has posted characters yet and I can't do anything until they do.
