If either of you guys (or anyone else) want to get a head start on character creation, here's all you really need to know for now... there's not much else to it!

(Oh, and if there's a skill field not listed here that you would like to use, please let me know and I'll consider adding it. Just so long as it's different than the others and makes sense..)

Where is the Conjuration! The Summoning

By the way

Longsword, Stealth, Shield, Necromancy

Yeah, I'm trying to remember why I didn't have conjuration in there. Probably to avoid the headache of having to deal with that...lol, but I guess we can give it a shot.

Zoology and Drudiry both involve natural animal summoning (well in the case of Zoology it involves "calling" them naturally...

...but I'll think about adding Conjuration... makes sense to have it.

Elemental can be summoning to. The Summoning of Elementals! :D

Yup, I thought so too.

I think I'll include Conjuration then, and just make it a sort of dangerous path because summons can turn on you..lol Otherwise it could be broken.

(Granted, this won't be so much with the competitiveness, so whether something is broken won't be a huge deal)

A thought, but returning characters do get improved ability within the skills they pick (you'll see when I post the guide)

Alright cool. I best think about my skills for a bit. <.<

Hiya guys!

I just wanted to say thanks for the latest instalment! I love that Kemuel had to draw on his past experience to help the City and I wonder where he could have disappeared to! I can't wait for more, so thank you! :)

Sure thing! I will just say, what happened there draws on the past you described in Kemuel's bio.

Are you on board for the re-boot? We're going to roleplay things from here on out.

Here is all the info, please sign up to re-create your character if you want to participate in the roleplaying. Thanks everyone.

:D That's why I loved it! I'm so impressed that you used the biography like that!

Most definitely! I'm gonna go sign up right now! :)
