Wicked.  I'll get something rolled up tonight.  Probably a Robodroid.

Holy Carp!

So what is our head count-I'm still trying to put some real names with board names. Stuart youre more than welcome,since anyone who can recognize the awsometasity of EC can game with me any time.

I will just continue with the game as is, in the village of Rowrshyakk. The game is more a less a bit of a dungeon crawl/exploration type thingee, a bit in the spirit of the  old Night Below adventure...sort of.

Ive also settled on an adventure title, been trying to find one that strikes the right balance of cheese/old school patishe/dont-want-to-give-anything-away factor.

So the title to our adventure is:

The Temple of Zarn

Wherein the PCs travel to the Forbidden Wastes, encounter monsters, and learn important life lessons about themselves

Got us at 6 confirmed:
Edsan (but where is he?  scarce the last couple days.  i PM'd him this AM)
Rondo
Wulfgar
Coffee
Stuart
& myself

1 tentative:
Dr Rotwang (i'll email him this afternoon if he doesn't turn up)

Also, for the sake of my sanity, please either link your PC sheet here, post it in this thread or PM it to me.

In addition 50 xp to anyone providing a Hero Machine portrait of your character or a cool EC style image( ala Rondo's Buck Pulsar). Stock images without flair will receive reduced xp depending on the JM's mood....

And Stuart makes 7 correct?

Speaking of Stuart- Char gen is by the rules, you may choose your race. No were creatures or  monsters. Races from Asteroid 1618 are allowed. I will be using the scare rules from Asteroid 1618. Please take max hp at first level.

Once we get rolling I'm flexible on posting schedule. Daily on Monday -Friday would be ideal, but I know thats not always feasible.

I await to see the party.

Yeah, can't seem to count today, even using all seben fingers.

Thrazar: you just gonna back this thing up and start from the beginning? I'm cool with that...other than Cave Tic Tac making a dash for the crowd, and Buck taking a stride towards the skirt, not much has happened yet anyway.

TicTac Rerun is an unusually clever and cunning Cave Wooky who enjoys fighting and grooming his luxurious moustache and mane. He is nicknamed No Lice because his cranial feelers constantly comb through his hair when not reading minds or broadcasting good vibes, leaving his hair glossy and stylish.

I'm cracking up at how similar our PCs turned out Wulfgar -- cranial feelers, black hole metal club, bulletproof vest & shield.  Could this be the EC Warrior equivalent of the bog standard D&D fighter with chainmail, shield & longsword?

Not to mention both are cave primitives, and we both chickened out at the prospect of rolling again on the mutation table after getting our cranial feelers.  Brothers-in-arms we are indeed!
