Klear:
Yeah, that's great. The more people the better, I think. I'll be celebrating my dad's birthday this evening, but hopefully I'll be able to join the play thread today.

Silhar:
Also, Tavana mentioned that he might be interested in joining over. Guess the team's a-growin'.

LuckyDee:
I'll be off to a friends bbq/birthday party within the hour, but I'll check in regularly over the next couple of days (we have Monday off due to Whitsuntide).

@Klear, if you can, please give us a description of what you look like. If we have all the visuals nailed down, I think we can start playing.

HexaDoken:
Hey, look! I was even bored enough to come up with this crappy backstory of my character!

Spoiler (click to show/hide)Hey, and guess what, A SPOILER INSIDE A SPOILER
Always wanted to do one.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
HexaDoken is a character who isn't anywhere secretive about his current life, but hides his past behind a thick layer of iron curtains.
His true age and birth place aren't known by anyone, even HexaDoken himself. When he was a kid, he suffered an amnesia, and when he woke up, he found himself in a village on one of feral planets, without anyone around knowing anything about him, his parents, and where he came from.

The planet he has found himself on was very hostile, but, as long as he remembered himself, he had a set of weirdnesses, particulary high agility and speed, and strange purple eyes, which are colorblind, but almost as acute as eagle eyes. This obviously helped to survive in the harsh conditions, but didn't really help him getting appreciated by the society. On the other hand, those who managed to get to know him closer have all found a kind soul hiding in strange body. Eventually, HexaDoken was able to make a lot of friends.

And lose them all in a single day.

Space pirates never get tired at randomly shooting people, right?

That day was also the day when HexaDoken's powers came to the full shine. Entering a blind berserk rage after seeing his friends dead, HexaDoken literally ripped and teared everything in sight that dared to move, completely barehanded.

When he calmed down, he found himself to be the only survivor.

Since then, he put a large red cross on his past, and even took the HexaDoken alias, not wanting to hear his own old name anymore. He moved on, and was eventually able to find other villages on the planet. He wasn't the small adorable kid anymore, and his hands were covered in blood, so he had even harder time getting appreciated by the society. But that didn't really bother him anymore. He started working as a mercerenary and bounty hunter. At first, everyone laughed at "this kid trying to play a killer", but his physical capabilities, experience, and sheer amount of luck were enough to par the local "professionals".

Later, after HexaDoken grew up, the shine of stars attracted him. Luckily, people haven't fully forgotten about the planet, and there were rare, but regular space flights. HexaDoken traveled to the planet which he pretty much have chosen at random - this happened to be Malfi, Calixis Sector. He started with the job he was most used to - being a mercerenary.

Once upon a time, HexaDoken has crossed the path of Inquisition. Luckily, the goals of them were same, so they teamed up. HexaDoken has shown a large share of skill and courage on the battlefield, and the Inquisition has offered him a place in their army. Since that actually sounded better than be a merc, HexaDoken accepted the offer, yet he never shared any of the moral standarts of the Inquisition.

And now he is there, on his way to a new mission, not really having any idea what is going to happen next...

Silhar:
Yeah, not bad. Not bad.

Only one suggestion, though. If you really want that berserk part in your backstory, we have to change your divination.

The current one is "the wise man learns from the deaths of others (+3 int)". Drop it and write instead "if a job is worth doing, it is worth dying for (gain Frenzy talent)". Just to make your char actually capable of falling into rage.

Cheers.
