agreed :3

i thought about rolling a 'wolf' who was more 'fox' like in nature, you know, likes pranks, great at laying traps and generally able to out think every one around her.

but then she'd been smarter then i am
Eh, I bet you could've written it. It's not that hard to write a clever character. They're easy to make insufferable, though.
[I'm speaking from a writing standpoint, rather than a rp standpoint. This is only my second rp. :|]
I think that would be pretty interesting. Maybe a wolf with cat parents that resulted in a fox archetype? Wouldn't be that hard to write, I think. Your character seems pretty cool, though.
Also: Fenris. Reference to the elvish language in Dragon Age, or the companion with that name? Just out of curiosity. I'm always curious what names are references to. Haha.
combination of Norse mythos, IE Fenrir

and 40K, the planet the Space Wolves are from.

sad thing is. i had to try think to come up with that back story, though when i'm not trying i can have something pretty good in mind

Another question: Why in the world did you choose a kris, of all weapons? Most people don't even know what a kris is.
I am afraid I'm very unknowledgeable about Norse mythology. I know the basics, but not much more. Celtic myths are more my forté.
Thinking of which...
I'm officially renaming my character. Assuming I can find the right story. [sub][small]and the name is pronouncable...[/small][/sub]
Also unknowledgeable about 40K. :|

I'm actually not sure now that I'm thinking about it ^^;; it just seemed color then the knife the Wolves normal use.

Fenrir is a wolf that is supposed to kill Odin during Ragnarok, it's also one of Loki's offspring.

the Space Wolves, are basically, Vikings, in space. it's awesome. the planet they are from is called Fenrir.

celtic myths eh ..... there an Elchulus in there anywhere? been meaning to look but been kinda lazy about it since i found out what Glas Ghaibhleann was ....

Team Fortress 2 will explain why people are familiar with the Kriss. I actually saw a History Channel episode about Asian weapons before I played the game, so I heard of it a few years ago.

[to google!] No, not as far as I know. Haha. It's been too long since I genuinely looked into it enough to say for certain. :|
Sounds awesome. Haha. Space vikings. Que interesante.
Ah! Come to think of it, I have heard of it. It's been years and years now, but I do vaguely remember! Haha.

Ah, that may be it. I didn't know it was on there. I'm kind of a knife nut, so I'd heard of it at... Some point. Somewhere in the past. I don't remember things. :| They're definitely pretty knives, at any rate.

And here I thought I was the only person on the entire planet who hasn't played Team Fortress.
Never played Magic the Gathering either, though.
Man, I'm an awful nerd, aren't I? Never played 40k, TF2 OR MTG. :|

I never played any of those either. I guess I'm not a very good nerd, either. :p

Damn it. Can't say I didn't try. :(
Nah, I'm not in the habit of hitting on random people. Except as a joke, obviously.

First round of elimination has begun - check the 2nd post.

I made sure EVERYONE'S Sheet was in the post and then went through and removed the unsuccessful players. For a 24 hour period, I'll be accepting re-writes of any unsuccessful characters.

For those still in, I'll go through the list again tonight. ( It's hard, because there are a lot of very cool characters in this! )

Hunh, I got knocked out by the guy I recruited. I'd like to know what to change, but I don't want to kick any of these people out :(

Well don't I feel like a right proper card.
Dectomax said:
Any possibility of you allowing two of each caste, maybe? :[
I'll feel pretty bad if Ruedyn gets knocked out because I joined.
EDIT: Hang on, what's the number of rp'ers we're looking for here? It's possible I'm misreading your post, but it sounds like you intend to take even more people off?

I was looking at writing, character and how well they'd interact with the other characters.

I'm looking at 4 or 5 people, to keep it tight and co-ordinated. I've found that having an RP with an excess of players makes the whole experience a little less fun.

I'm just going to assume that means my character sheet was good for the mild ego boosting.

I thought having a natural coward and sniper on the team would be interesting. (Also, after looking at those accepted, I can't help but feel Yuriy is the luckiest man ever)

If you look back at the sheets accepted, you'll notice that so far, there are two of each caste bar Wolves. :)

Y'know...you may be right.
