Post by: Suno_Regin on August 09, 2005, 12:26:02 am: I picked lumberjacks for both, since it gives uber strength bonuses, for a split second I was in the strength of the gods records on laanx.fragnetics :P

Post by: dragonfire999 on August 09, 2005, 02:15:13 am: well its kinda stupid to do things out of pure Ub3r p0w3r l3v3l1ng11111

Mother :Priest of Laanx
Fater : Lumberjack

Post by: zanzibar on August 09, 2005, 04:21:56 am: Priest of Laanx is cool because you start off with a good deal of redway and darkway! Until they fix it, weakness will kill almost anything given enough time, and flameburst isn\'t too weak either as a basic attack spell! Plus they\'re just COOL. Look at me, I\'m freaking lighting stuff on freaking FIRE!

Well it indeed is stupid, but you also have taken quite \"useful\" parents...
So why do you blame him? I you had an animal trainer as your father i could understand it better...

Post by: SinCerberus on August 09, 2005, 05:29:00 am: I have an animal trainer for a father and a cook for mother.

I pick a cook for mother because I like the food my mother cooks in real life. As for my dad, I just couldn\'t find anything that seems a bit fn to have at all.

Too bad I couldn\'t find anything that\'s like a thief.

Post by: ilBaal on August 09, 2005, 05:37:46 am: Yeah, something \"thievish\" would be great :)

Mother :Butcher
Father :Librarian

Vagabond is kinda thief-like. Vagabond isn\'t too expensive, and it raises equally strength, agility, and endurance.

Post by: Eolius on August 09, 2005, 08:21:35 pm: I coudn\'t find warrior so my father was a teacher because he teached me the ways of the wariors.
My mother was a priest of Laanx because that is my bacground storry. I came up with a balanced but weak character but i don\'t care since there is always training and i prefer to keep the RP aspect.

Post by: dragonfire999 on August 09, 2005, 08:27:33 pm: i picked at random, my gui was messed up :P

Thats why i ended up with 117 agility O.O

Post by: Zan on August 09, 2005, 11:11:15 pm: My father is a famous politician and my mother has no job actually .. which now makes it appear like I have no mother at all.

I picked that because it fits in best with my character history.

Post by: Efflixi Aduro on August 10, 2005, 06:17:16 pm: Both my parants were priests till I realized it doesnt affect brown magic at all so now I\'m just gonna take what gives me the most int. :)

I\'ll wright a story once my char is created perfectly.

Post by: lynx_lupo on August 10, 2005, 06:48:51 pm: Raun handelle is a librarian and Hegemone is a healer (some harper approximation), like my history says.

Post by: rosmerelmer on August 10, 2005, 09:46:38 pm: such a clich?

my father is an vegebond and my mother an animal trainer.
i grew up in a small house in a dangerous area..

Post by: Kixie on August 10, 2005, 11:13:22 pm: The fact that there is no occupation of \"Dead beat\" just totally steams me up.

And another thing that makes me mad is the fact this isn\'t retroactive for real life. Then I\'d probally make my dad work at chucky cheese\'s; That way I could get free pizza, and be alot closer to my job (Which of course is jumping small children in the play pit of foam).

Post by: Jjairr on August 15, 2005, 06:17:48 am: Father: Weapon smithy
Mother: Jewler

So my dad could make my weapons, and mum could give me all sorts o\' shinyprettyfunstuff. Muahahahahahaha.
