Yup! You'll learn more about his abilities as time progresses, but a couple good things to remember. He's not a super combat character. Has basic weapon training, but that's about it. His main strength is Psyker abilities. Minor healing and debuffs mainly. I don't have access to the horrifyingly powerful stuff yet.

Woohoo! One more to keep the Homonculi off my back! ;)

Seriously though, welcome to the group, MWD. :)

Excellent. Glad to be here! Just keep the ickies off my back, and I can either incapacitate them, or heal you. Or stand around looking creepy and intimidating. I can manage that too. But when it comes to shooting or punching ... yeah, not so much.

On a funny note, I checked my message archives. Vardaen invited me to join this campaign as a psyker on February 2, 2009. Going on a year ago. Darn you for not finishing the chapter sooner! Grrrr...

PBP games are many things. Fast-paced is not one of them.

Ain't that the truth. But it does have its advantages. People from different states/countries can game together. And the level of detail in the role-playing can be much deeper, as everything from inner monologue to in-depth description of actions can be posted. A lot better than - "I stab the guy. What do I roll, 6k3? Cool."

Yeah sorry for the long time in getting you worked in MWD, another day or so now and you'll be in the group! I really did think the fight throught he Alm's House wouldn't take as long as it did :) Silly me.

Well then, I think everyone in the IC thread is ready I'll move things along later (I'm at home today and off to xmass shop)
