I am thinking of starting up my game ‘Demon Wind’ again now that I find myself with some spare time…


Therefore… I need two players to take over the below characters… a Syl Duskblade and a Swashbuckler … I am looking at a start around the end of June or early July… if I get the replacements…

If you are interested please post your interest here … or… you can PM me directly….

Thank you!

Character Description/History:

Irael awoke in the wild elven lands, not knowing where he was. As he sat up, he felt a throbbing pain in his head, though he had no idea why he would feel it. Looking at his body, he realized he had been stripped of everything he owned, and was lost. Not daring to give up, he got up and wandered aimlessly, searching for someone whom he could ask what happened.

A day later, he was found by a patrol team, and brought to the village. He rested in the infirmary until he was capable, and then began to ask around what had happened. Nobody knew why he was there, or how. Simply that Irael now was part of their village. Irael attended the school of elven swords and sorcery to be able to prepare himself for when he was to be in a dangerous situation again, so that he would not be harmed. Being with his kin, he learned the way of mixing the sword and magic in combat. Irael excelled at this, and became the top of his class. However, his desire for knowledge of who he had been before he awoke that one day puzzled him to no end, and so he left the Syl village and went off questing for the answers.

Well do you have room for me? Remember I was going to do Mendez, but that somehow got messed up. I think Ody could swash a buckle or two.

Tadirien Vanlithe now played by an old drunken Werebear.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm??????????????????

I dont see no reason why you could not.. ... you want the swashbuckler... you got it...

Ok I just need someone to take over the Duskblade... any takers?

FYI... I expect one post minimum per week... I will do my update on the weekends usually Sunday...

Any other questions.. just ask...

I've designed various duskblades in the past... (only ever got to play one)

If you don't mind, I'll take on the role.

My only question pertains to his spell list. Do you have one handy, or shall I consult mine?

... well I dont believe we have met... hello... and while I havent seen your RPing yet... I will be willing to let you try it out as you sound as if you are familiar with the class...

Ok.. you may play the Duskblade ... if you wish you can handle the spells... PM me what you come up with...

Ok so the recruitment is closed... I plan to start in a couple of weeks.. so look for the first post the end of the month.. I will inform everyone when I start.

Thank you all for playing!

Well got to do some reading of 3.5 rules and stuff a bit but thanks for the chance. I'm more to the role playing than rules so please bare with me. I've done 2.0. 4.0, Cortex and fate so 3.5 shouldn't be that tough.

I like that this character hasn't fleshed out completely by the last writer. A chance to Odyize him and he's an outsider, so that's a good twist too. I hope to get a bit of post up by Sunday.

I thank you for your consideration. I'll do my best.

And I'll agree with Ody here. I read over the game thus far and it seems as though both these characters were in the background. Plenty of room to grow .

I'll double check my spell lists for something that seems appropriate and let you know, especially since I've got Arcane Channeling to play with.

Now that was quick. Welcome to the band guys!

Hey, we can always swap if you wish. I like swashing buckles, and you seem to like psychotically talking to rat familiars

Thanks Darren, but I'll just stay with this guy. It'll be easier to get use to 3.5 rules if I keep it simple. I was concerned with the beguiler class magic using that I'd mess it up. Hard to mess up swashing, lol.

Ye Olde, do I need to develop and post a character back story for Tad?

... that was exactly what I was scared of

Ah, but you do a great job talking to the Rat!

.. you may if you wish post a backstory for Tad.. but.. it isnt necessary... what has happened in the past is not as important as what he does in the future...

Edited to add: I dont plan to post an update till the end of this month... but if anyone feels the need to post for their character to get them caught up to where they are at the time... please by all means post.

.. looking for a replacement player for a character in my Demon Wind game... the character is Mendez a Beguiler.... the detailed information is below...

Looking for someone to play the quirky character... he often talks to his rat Teo... though no one else can hear the rat's response... from past experience they are sure he can understand the rat.. others outside the party however see the character as a bit touched in the head..

If someone one like to take over this character please post here or PM me... until then I will NPC the character for now... Thanks!

Name: Mendez Ortega
Alignment: Neutral Good

Build: Beguiler 6

Race: Human
Gender: Male
Age: 30
Height: 5 ft 8 in
Weight: 145 lbs
Hair: Black
Eyes: Brown
Complexion: Olive

Description: Well-dressed, well-groomed, and well-spoken… these are words that well describe Mendez.

History: Mendez spent much of his early adult life traveling around Pardinal with a group of entertainers known as The Six Fingers. Mendez performed as the Showman, the announcer of the other ten members of the group (Anton and Arlo {Acrobats}, Lucio {Juggler}, Raul {Strongman}, Teo {Escape Artist}) as well as performing illusionist and sleight of hand tricks.

Nearly three years ago, The Six Fingers were ambushed by a group of bandits as they were traveling. Lucio and Raul were killed, while Mendez and the others were captured and held, hoping that their family members might pay a ransom for their release. While being held, Teo managed to escape his bonds and release his companions. During their escape, Teo was killed by the bandits.

When Mendez and the acrobatic brothers made it to the safety of the city, they were at a loss for what to do… only three of the six Fingers remained… not enough to continue together. Anton and Arlo found work soon enough with another traveling company, but Mendez sunk into a deep melancholy as he mourned the loss of his companions, especially Teo, who had been like a younger brother to him.

After about half a year of living in this dark place of depression, Mendez was forcefully brought out when he came upon a group of thugs taking advantage of an older man and his daughter in back alley of Visden. Using some simple spells and his vast imagination, Mendez “conjured” forth a few “foes” worthy of the thugs, scaring the ruffians away. The event brought a renewed sense of purpose to Mendez’ life – his “simple” illusions could do more than just entertain; they could bring about justice.

This event also brought a new relationship into Mendez’ life – Sabina, the young woman whom he had rescued, and her father, Gregory. Mendez is currently courting Sabina, and the two are very much in love.

With a renewed sense of purpose came a new line of work. Mendez, seeing an opportunity, joined up with the Blood Guard, selling his services as an information specialist and spy. The work takes him away from Visden often and worries Sabina. She puts on a brave face, however, knowing that Mendez is serving a greater good.
