- NAME: Kaprin Esset - CLASS: Sorcerer/Aberrant Mind - BACKGROUND: Kaprin is a half-elf who always knew that he was a one in a million (or once in several lifetimes) child. From his youngest years he could tell what others were feeling by just looking in their eyes, studying for just a moment. He never knew why, and any attempts to ask were quickly shut down. However, when his father, a researcher for a powerful mage, died, the truth came out. Kaprin was present on the day when the researcher desired more power than what he had. Using a spell, his father opened a gateway into another realm to release waves of powerful psychic energy. The desire was to contain them in himself. But the ways of Nature, even more so of Magic, are not easily manipulated. Kaprin, and not his father, was flooded with the energy the only a baby. With his father gone, Kaprin has read as many of the tomes and spells he could, but to no avail in seeking exactly what took place that day 25 years ago. He has since packed up, leaving the world he has always known, in search of any answers he can find. - YOUR TIME ZONE: Saint Louis, MO (CST Zone) - YOUR D&D/PbP EXPERIENCE : Played D&D years ago, and have just gotten back into it within the past year. I thoroughly enjoy PBP, as my time doesn't allow much sit and play for hours time. - YOURSELF (Tell me something interesting about YOU, not your character.): I am a high school English teacher.

- NAME: Arthus Brightborn - CLASS: Paladin 1 (Oath of Conquest in the future) - BACKGROUND: Arthus was born and raised within Neverwinter, as the eldest son of the Brightborn family. He was loved and cherished for the first four years of his life, until his little brother was born. He still got a strong education, a luxurious lifestyle, and a modicum of freedom, but he was also left in the dust by his brother who received his family's true love. Arthus eventually met up with and joined the Cult of Torm. This was originally an effort just to find a place to belong, but their code of honor impacted him greatly. With honor and dignity he felt like it gave him meaning to live, and without it he would have nothing. Armed with his faith, he travelled through the Sword Coast to prove his worth. Though grueling, it taught him many lessons, and worked as a sort of 'growing up' experience. After returning as a mature young man, and an official paladin, Arthus thought his family might see him in a new light. Someone capable who has proved their worth. He was so incredibly wrong. His father still thought Dorian (his brother) was better, though he hadn't even achieved half of what Arthus did. Furious, he vowed that he would rise above this and secure equal treatment. Whether it would be as the heir of Brightborn, or a leader of Torm cult, or as a personal knight of the royal family, he did not care. He knew that he could earn respect and glory by his actions. This was what he was going to do. - YOUR TIME ZONE: Scotland (UK), GMT - YOUR D&D/PbP EXPERIENCE : I've been playing role-playing games since I was 12 years old (now I'm 37), mostly D&D (3.5, 4, 5) and Warhammer (1st and 2nd ed), but also Pathfinder (1st ed). I have experience in pbp - played a lot on local pbp forums. I've never played Death House or Curse of Strahd before. - YOURSELF: I work as a carer for people with disabilities and I'm a proud dad of two boys and a Staffie dog. In my "downtime" I play on the Xbox, read books and watch movies. Such a boring life haha. - VOTE FOR TEXT DISCORD CHATROOM FOR OOC AND QUESTIONS (YES/NO): Yes for some questions, but mostly I prefer to play on forum.
The choices have been made. IF you received a PM from me, you made the cut. Believe me, this was a difficult choice. I appreciate all of you who took the time to post an application. I will see you around the forums. I am now closing the thread.
Bump
Is this still open?
It is. I will be choosing on Monday.

Good luck to those who were chosen! Don't get stabbed, clobbered, eviscerated, or otherwise dispatched in a bloody and brutal fashion!
