Once you get the character assigned to you, do you ask the player for some insight? Else I think I could COMPLETELY portray someone incorrectly.

I'm hoping for this, actually. I think I've got a pretty good handle on most of the folks I know, so I hope one of the guys from Limsa shows up and gets involved. I want to see how I do with only the most precursory knowledge of someone.

..........oh, to hell with it.  CHALLENGE ACCEPTED.

Isn't that part of the challenge?! 
You can always ask for a very barebones, basic profile like insight, or you can ask for a Wiki profile. Or....

You can wing it! The point of this is to see how well you can play someone who doesn't belong to you!

Whoever gets Franz should prolly ask me directly. That wiki is pretty outdated >_>

(Or just look him up in some of the more recent threads. There's a lot floating around in his head Big Grin )

Cut-off date will be Monday (whenever I wake up) to give plenty of time to post in here! 

So far we have 7 people with me being tentative. If my count is correct.

You can always do a three-way switch, too. Person A takes person B, person B takes person C, person C takes person A. Not quite the same as the original idea, but still fun! Plus that way even if you get evens and you still want to join in, you'll be able to. Smile

I was just inquiring! I am not signing up though... I have an OCD tendency when it comes to writing for other people, like combing through all their posts, or using logs, or running the post by them to make sure I get it okay... >.<

It sounds like a totally interesting exercise though. Thumbsup (and no, if I was actually thinking of signing up, Rae would not be the one I would sign up with)

Aww, that's alright, Roen! This is only the first of many challenges I'll be issuing. I have like, three more I have in storage. 

(If you have challenge ideas, shoot them at me!)

Also, that puts us at... eight? I'll double check when I'm not swirling around in phone hell.

Damn. My entire Roen post was just going to be her gawking at the training gladiators.

Angar and Wulfebrom were nearing the end of the day. The sun was setting far across the horizon of Thanalan and the men were finishing their last sparring session. They had begun with swords and shields, then simply swords. Work with staves and spears to keep their skills honed. At last, a true test of strength and skill between the Highlanders they had both looked forward to, the battle of bare-handed combat.

Before they could begin, however, they heard a small voice call out from the hills above them.

"Real men fight with no shirts on!

...and in the mud...

...after oiling up..."


They turned their gaze in the direction of the noises and then only saw a red blur dash back towards the Gates of Nald.

They shrugged as they got naked, as all Highlander brawls as supposed to be, laughing as they reached for the oil.
