Oops, I just took the money. :D

Nice character.  ...What\'s Tumbling skill?

I think in the RP thread we should say that your character picks up this and that and whatnot, and then another character can say that they want this and that, and whatnot...

Basically, we should make our characters decide what to get as loot.

( I mentioned this before, just wanted to say it again. )

Tumbling=acrobatics.
I will try not to get ridiculous with it but it can be useful in a RP setting. Useful for crossing tightropes as they may occur on say a rope bridge. Also handy when dodging giants with your back to a wall ;)

Its a concept I took from D&D really but its a common skill for many RPG type rogues/thieves.

Well, who wants the tria(money) and stones? The tria is the basic form of money, and stones are for throwing. Anyhow, does anyone want to carry some of those?

Oh yeah, and we need to come up with monsters to fight in the Stone Labryniths. We will not be fighting them all the way through, just having an occasional battle. And we\'ll probably also need a map of the surface, too... Or we can simply make a map using words.

<Worf> These are the moments when my ego gets put back on the ground. I use linux for quite some time, and am soon 2 years maintainer of a linux distribution. I started to think I would be good at it. But then I tried to get planeshift running.

Yeah, thanks for the list of monsters, Para! We\'ll use some of them. Lets see here... the Labryniths spiders and rock moles we might encounter, and there are more monsters to sort into the \'Stone Labryniths\' category.... We\'ll need to come up with more, but that post of monsters is a great start and help!

Shall we make all the monsters on this thread, or shall we just make up what our attackers are in the RP thread?

I say we make the creatures in the thread. That way, we don\'t come up with \'stupid\' monsters and we can discuss the strengths and weaknessess of the monsters before our characters encounter them. We can also tune up and down creatures, too. And we won\'t get confused while posting, either. Anyways, good question.

Also, not all the creatures should be savage. As we discussed \'earlier,\' we were going to be finding a pack animal. Also, some friendly creatures should be around, but probably rare in the Labryniths. It\'s all up to our imagingation. Will add more later.(If I come up with more to add)

-Not fond of Dwarves
-Does not wear heavy armor
-Has issues with trusting
-Some arrogance .....thinks he can beat almost anything

Background/Personality:
Pheonix is the mantra that Kyel took up since the age of 16, his family struck out  on their own, instead of living within a great elven city they lived alone in the woods, an orc raid which resulted in the death of his Mother, Father, and two brothers leaving only himself and his younger sister who is 2 years younger than him.
After the Orc massacre he took his sister to one of the Elven cities and left her in the care of an old friend of his fathers, a priestess and a Highelf , upon learning the Pheonix intended to hunt orc she provided him with the mytrhril sword. After years of succesfully hunting small groups of Orc which taught him tracking skills, he began feeling like he needed something greater. He returned to the elven city only to find out his sister had left a few months after him, the High elf convinced him to stay in the city long enough to improve his then mediocre skills with a sword.
Rumors came of a great orc horde rising up in east of the city supposedly pouring out from abandoned Dwarf tunnels. The city took up arms preparing a pre-emtive strike. Of course he stayed to help.
The battle took place and he saw an orc coming up behind the High Elf, he shouted to her as he ran but the steel armor he was wearing impeded his movemant making him get to her in time to catch her headless body. After the battle The dead High Elfs brother presented pheonix with a his medallion as he learned that pheonix vowed to never again wear  heavy armors.
He spent the next few years looking for his sister,wondering and helping out adventurers wherever he met them.


Pheonix - Is young and quite brave which often leads him into danger..... He loves the thrill of a good fight often he smiles while in battle when he doesnt smile at any other times.
Although he is not a social person he does enjoy flirting with pretty females and that also has gotten him into many a fight.



If im aproved maybe we should meet in the middle of a battle, possibly ive been tracking you after hearing rumors about adventurers going for the crystal...
perhaps I watched the fight and caught the escaped thief?
