(Remember, this is OD&D, not AD&D; so make sure you are looking at the right books when you're thinking this through . . . .)

If anyone wants the zip file, PM me with your e-mail address and I can send you the whole file, or, if you don't want to jam your e-mail bandwidth, a specific character.

My vote (which doesn't count for anything) is to just have everyone post here who they want, and we'll see if we can accommodate everyone.  If there's a dispute, d100 rolling at 20 paces should do.  If there's chaos, we can try something more organized.

IO has expressed a preference for a cleric.  That would be either Haesel or Still Water Falling.  Stratochamp seems to want Boone, the paladin.  Prufrock is in line for either Clem Fuller or Skorri Einarrsson.  Lawrenson wants a fighter or thief-type, but there's too many of those for me to pick.  My preference would be for Amaroo Genglar.

So, who do you want?

My preference would be Gilrondian Skyborne.

Second & third choices:

2. Harfindel Ginty
3. Ameroo Genglar "Wyrm Slayer"

Ok, if I had my druthers, I'll take:

1.  Harfindel Ginty -- Half-Elf 6th Level Fighter/8th Level Magic-User
2.  Finalathid Brightleaf -- 8th Level Elf Magic-User
3.  Xylarthen the Subtle -- 8th Level Human Magic-User

I will take Skorri Einarrsson if no one has any objection.

Mark is the adjudicator on this.

I have just sent a corrected sheet on Haesel to Mark. If any of you got one that is just a chart/table--contact bracton.

I've heard from bbarsh, and he won't be at Gen Con, at least not on Friday.  So that opens up one spot.  First to post and ask gets it.

We also haven't heard from silver.  I'm not going to open that one up, yet . . . but ya better lay claim to your character soon, or it will be up for grabs.

Both bbarsh and silver have yet to pick a character, but there's still a bunch of good ones left:  Beowulf Irontree, Clem Fuller, Finalathid Brightleaf, Quicksilver Harry and Thom Foozlebotch.

I'm not going, but I want to be Thom Foozlebotch! Love that name

Do I have a firm commitment Mark?

I've certainly been committed.  I mean I've committed . . . uh . . . .  

Anyway, the current list of ten victims stands as follows:

1.  Bracton --  Amaroo Genglar
2.  burntwire brother #1 (Devon) -- Xylarthen
3.  burntwire brother #2 (Shawn) -- Tylar Soosaq
4.  dbartman -- Gilrondian Skyborne
5.  Invincible Overlord -- Haesel
6.  lawrenson -- Bartlett Butterbun
7.  Prufrock -- Skorri Einarrsson
8.  Rabbit_67 -- Harfindel Ginty
9.  Strahd's Minion -- Still Water Falling
10. stratochamp -- Boone

These assignments are now carved in rock with a hardness of 11 on the Mohs scale.  Tim, feel free to print and endorse covers accordingly.

Having removed bbarsh (as Bill won't be there on Friday) and silver (for a failure to respond, though he may certainly reclaim same by posting here), that means two spots are open for the taking . . . or we venture forth into Tim's adventure with a less than full crew.  

So if you're destined for Indy, and you'd like one of the openings, post here -- first come, first served -- or carry your regrets for the rest of your sad, misspent life . . .

By the way, thanks for the suggestion, Mike . . . I look forward to your costume choice at NTRPGCon next year.    

1.  Bracton --  Amaroo Genglar
2.  burntwire brother #1 (Devon) -- Xylarthen
3.  burntwire brother #2 (Shawn) -- Tylar Soosaq
4.  dbartman -- Gilrondian Skyborne
5.  Invincible Overlord -- Haesel
6.  lawrenson -- Bartlett Butterbun
7.  Prufrock -- Skorri Einarrsson
8.  Rabbit_67 -- Harfindel Ginty
9.  Strahd's Minion -- Still Water Falling
10. stratochamp -- Boone

So, do you want your real names or your handles?

Look up foozlebotch--you might be surprised... or not...
