Are you not getting enough DM attention? Are all the high level ALFA PCs stealing your thunder and fun? Are you being left behind in plots because you just play casually?
Then come to Baldur's Gate in NWN2!! There's something for everyone here! If your PC survives the events of pre-release, you are guaranteed to have them as NPCs on the version that goes live.
Yus, the first week of September is here. I'm still waiting on my interweb tube access at my new place, but i think it will be ready by the weekend. To that extent, its time for the BG NWN2 kickoff.
Shooting for Sat 8th at Noon West coast US time for the official start. Plot and PC specific information to follow...

There's a place I like to hide
A doorway that I run through in the night
Relax child, you were there
But only didn't realize and you were scared
It's a place where you will learn
To face your fears, retrace the years
And ride the whims of your mind

A new bunch of Flaming Fist Mercenaries has been grouped together for standard work around the Gate. Ideally i want some "quirky" type characters so that things are entertaining. Pick one of the following or make your own and post it here (want folks to know eachother, as they all did go through training together):
-A very short human fighter with a Napoleon/Little man complex. He's a tough fighter who grew up on the streets, but has a tendency to be a bit "in your face" over stupid issues. Likes to flip out when someone belittles him in any way.
-A brilliant gnome illusionist, who sadly has the downside of thinking EVERYTHING is an illusion. It takes a lot of convincing sometimes to show that something isn't an illusion to him. Think like Pythagoras obsessed with triangles.
-A handsome priest of Lathander.... with a lisp that everyone makes fun of. The chances for comedy here are endless.
-A very feminazi thief, who thinks that everyone in the world is scum. Quite skilled in every way and always useful, and quick to point out every time she succeeds where others fail... especially men.
Pick one and reserve your spot today! First person to select a roll gets to be party leader!!!

That would of course be awesome. Loved the concept idea. Might want to post a bit about the concept so folks have a general idea of what they know from when you were in "training" together.

On a side note: There will be no suicide-exploding goblins in this plot!
Am indeed on the forums, but staying low key until kickoff time. I'm hoping after i display my work i'll have some clout in getting things going. My next big hurdle will be receiving "official status" as an ALFA server. Of course official or not, anything in my mod will be available for use if folks so desire.

A few notes:
-The Flaming Fist is the police group controlled by Duke Eltan of Baldur's Gate. Despite technically being mercenaries, they are pretty much the state army and police.
-This will be "Classic" DnD, i.e. one of the modules released from days of yore that has been adapted for the region. It is a good one, but if you know it, pretend you don't. : P
-Please post char concept descriptions that others in the group would know about you so we spend less time with introductions, prep. I want to get right to the adventurin' fun and have everything ready to go when folks log in.
-Apologies for not being in chat, i'm without interweb access at home, but should be remedied shortly. If not i will bum a connection for the event.
Feel free to PM questions

Visna Alfarsdottir
Half-elf female barbarian, born of a ship-wrecked elf making a pilgrimage to Evermeet and a Ruathym princess. Visna grew up as a Ruathym, her father having left to continue his pilgrimage. Her strongest desire is to be a great warrior, like those in the Ruathym myths. Among the Ruathym, women are allowed to be warriors, called Shieldmaidens, but only so long as they do not have a family. Accordingly, Visna guards her virginity tenaciously.
Unfortunately, she is drop-dead gorgeous. Born of a handsome elf and a beautiful strong, blond ruathym princess, Visna is the picture of beauty and sexuality. But she will not so much as kiss a man. She fears that any romantic contact with anyone may cause her to get with child and thus end her career as a warrior. This, of course, did not sit well with the men of her land – warriors they have a plenty – half-elven beauties are far more rare. And so the King decided his son should be wed to Visna.
Visna fled, only to find the men in the next village much the same. And the village beyond them. Only her ferocity and anger has kept her from getting ravaged or married. Frustrated with the men of her islands, she has moved to the mainland in search of respect. Naturally, men are men and everywhere she goes she finds men are far more interested in bedding her than in fighting beside her. Nevertheless, she continues to guard her chastity against all-comers. Sometimes she goes so far as to "uglify" herself by smearing her face with mud, but so far, even this has failed to stop some men from pursuing her.
Now, having been pursued by so many men, she believes every man in the world desires only one thing from her so she has something of a chip on her shoulder – her temper is quick and her rage fierce, even if she is but 19 years old and a mere slip of a girl.
[[P.S. to my fellow players – I may not be able to make it Saturday – its up in the air what my schedule will be. I hope I can make it, but no promises.]]
