We are talking as our characters, and we know........sorry, can't let you in on it. And I apoligize, likely not all that appropriate to keep posting about it like this.

I am:

...a founder of a clan that fosters cooperation and 100% support of clan members. Acting the right way could get you gifts, acting the wrong was could get you killed. He rarely says anything the simple way.

...the owner of a very wealthy iron producing company. I had been a "right hand man"/henchman of the previous owner for the last 40 years. It was my job to do things the boss wanted before the boss knew he wanted it. I own a Limo.

...an old man sitting in a shack in the middle of the swamp, slowly consuming my supply of potatos. I live with 6 snakes, they don't seem to ever want to reproduce.

...a greedy, selfish, mass murderer. I convinced the self-proclaimed queen to accept me in the small circle of power. I grew tired of all the beggars and whiners on the island, always crying because they could not have iron, because I could farm food in "their" town, yet they couldn't gather resources in My town. I slowly started to drag them into my castle and kill them one by one if they seemed to be one those weak beggar types. I am now floating on a boat in the sea, unable to find my home dock again.

...retired General of the Imperial Empire. I doubt any of my actions will go down in history, but my influence and support was the deciding factor in the change of power. I could have seized the throne if I wanted, but who needs that hassle.

...a woman who had built every machine/vehicle/tool/weapon she could ever want or need and has no real direction in life any more. I am tired of repairing all my tools.

...a member of a city on wheels.

...a man dabbling in politics in Quillanoi, dabbling in iron production, but excelling in neither really.

...a very insecure, immature, impulsive, and flirtatious person whose actions/words have gotten him into some hot water with his elders. He likes to believe he is a stud, a spy, and all the women love him. A recent quote describes him pretty well, "Ever known a guy that can say something about you and you would laugh, but if someone else says the same thing and it makes you wanna punch him in the mout. Well it sucks to find out the people you thought were your freinds see you as the second guy."

:lol: :lol: Bowser, I love all of your chars. They would be a great example to prospective players of the kind of varied and intriguing lives their own chars could lead.

And to all those new players out there, you can tell he did not develop these chars in a Cantr year or even five. Establishing interesting lives in Cantr takes a little time (just like in rl). :wink:

Alright...Let's try this again now.

I am member of TBR with high authority, though I may lose it soon, because I don't do my job. I've recently been engaged to the man I love and he thinks I'm the greatest thing in the world.

I am an assistant at a clothing store, but was sent on a trip to gather wood. My two best friends came with me, and I am just now getting over the death of my boyfriend.

I WAS just a nobody to everybody, until I got frustrated with how slow I was starving myself to death. When I vented my frustrations out loud, a man gave me food and asked me to join him and his friends on their boat. Though I still don't know what it is we're doing, I have gladly joined them and things are also heating up between me and a man that I like.

I WAS a slave. I've actually grown to like the man that has kept me locked up in his house for over two years, and he has finally let me go outside, since I promised not to leave. I also helped him kill two men who refused to help me when I asked for it. I am growing to like killing people now.

I WAS a traveler who was lost in the mountains. I finally arrived at a town, and was met by a rather strange man. When I asked for a job no one but one other man offered so I took the job. I am now getting ready to open a business with him.

I am still a member of a rebellious group. We were sent on a trip to gather food, and I am currently doing that now.

I am a woman who has decided to help rebuild a town recently attacked by pirates, though I really miss my home.

I am a wanderer who has been sent to give a message to someone. While there, I fell in love with a man who has decided to come back to my home with me.

I am employed by a nice man, but I am very self conscious of my abilities to do my job.

I am a woman whose best friend has just died. I am devastated and seeking comfort from the man I am now with.

I am an adventurer and still traveling with a bard.

I am a woman who has fallen for the man I made a bet with. But due to his ongoing sleeping, I've decided to leave him. And will be leaving very soon.

I am a woman who found a great place with great people, and am awaiting the return of a man whom I have had feelings for, for a long time.

I am a woman who gave up on life a long time ago, but upon arriving at a deserted town, I'd decided to try and rebuild it. I am currently on a resource run with the man I will soon marry.

I am a woman who works for a weapons shop. I am getting ready to go with my employers on a resource run, because we have run out of wood.
Awkward: Having your phone go off full volume during a funeral.

Even more awkward: Your ringtone being "I Will Survive"

The most awkward: Coming back after a 10+ year hiatus and swearing I'd never come back. :twisted:

I have a feeling I know the characters in question, but I'm almost as confused as pie.

Okay I'm updating my list too...

I am in my thirties and I'm a lonely leader of a guild in a popular city...

I am a travelling trader whom my two partners have died, and their bodies are still on the boat.

I am in my thirties and I'm a new member of the Stone Knight, after being exiled from my town...

I used to own a Trade Center in a growing city by the sea, but I left to find a more exciting life...

I am a newspawn and I'm travelling, stopping in every town for a little time just to collect some food..

I am a town's new tailor, and I have just made a new outfit out of leather :D

I am an annoying girl, working on steel and iron and her only dream is getting every man in her big city to kiss her... My other dream is to start a vehicle company :wink:

I am in my thirties and have lost my boyfriend recently and got a new sweetheart... But I seem to lose all of my beloved friends one by one... Oh, and Buff Blackrock is such a pain in the ass for her :P

I am working on healing the sick and tired with a lovely man :wink:


I was a ranger who got in prison for speaking his mind.. he died in prison and left a letter for his sweetheart.

I am a Blojt Comitatense who is carrying on a love affair, kept secret for fear that his dedication will be questioned.

I am the jovial owner of an overly successful trading organization who is having a difficult time keeping up with the growth of his company.

I am a sleepy smelter.

I am an ambitious explorer seeking lands seen only by the fewest of Cantrians.

I am lost.

I am a fledgling Iron Baron, poised to launch the biggest output of metal the region has ever seen.

I am the manager of the local Blacksmith shop. A position I inherited after the slow death of a friend.

I am diseased and worried that I will never see my homeland again.

I am a salt trader and petty thief.

I am a town guard with a severely inflated sense of responsibility.

I am a sea-fairing limestone wrangler.

I am about to depart with a woman who has decided to leave her sleepy boyfriend. :wink:

I am an unemployed road builder.

I am a naive TBR spy.

I am building a bus!
