Alright... I've finally decided which characters I'm going to keep playing, so I'm going to finally post here.
I am a man in my thirties, happily married to a wondrful girl. We are currently hiding inside a shop to avoid a sickness that was just appeared in our town.
I am a woman in my thirties who owns a successful metal shop in a small town surrounded by mountians. I'm currently feeling neglected by my boyfriend.
I am a woman in my thirties. I was a former pirate who fell in love with a man we abducted. I ran away with him until things went horribly wrong and I was forced to leave. I went to a small forest far away from my old home, and am now running from their guards.
I am a man in my thirties who can't remember a thing. I was hit in the head with a shovel and lost all my previous memories. I'm now currently working for a nice man in a blacksmith shop.
I am a woman in my thirties docked in a town I don't much care for. I plan to gather enough stone to build myself a home then sail to and settle in a new place under a different name.
I am a woman in my thirties who is the co-ruler of a small forest. I am having difficulties enforcing the rules in my town with all these greedy traders and disrepectful newspawns.
I am a man in my thirties. I own a small unsuccesful buisness in a meduim sized town. However, all I want is to build a motorcycle and become a wanderer.
And now the dead people!
I was a greedy mercenary being paid to help take over a small town. They locked me up and killed me.
I was a childish young fellow with no cares in the world. I was killed for passing through a madman's town.
I was a petty theif. I was docked onto by a guard and killed.
I was the distraught girlfriend of a Blackrock who was killed in Kwor. The 'good' people of Kwor killed me for sking of his whereabouts.
I was a traveller who forgot to bring enough food to last the trip.
I was a sailor who drowned at sea.
I was a coal miner who died of black lung disease.
I was a virtually unknown laborer who went crazy at the loss of my love and killed myself.

I'm going to map the whole world, and visit every town! (OOC: She's unaware of the other continents.) I'm also chasing a fugitive! She won't get away, even if she does have a bike. And even if she does have a few days headstart. And even if maybe I'm chasing someone else by accident... In any case, it'll be an adventure.
I've been sleeping too much. I've missed important information. I hope I don't lose my job when I turn in this record incomplete. And right after she said how much she liked having me around. I hope I didn't make her change her mind. I hope she doesn't send me to help start the new outpost. I can't go outside. Will I lose my job if I refuse to go?
I'm free now. The final step was giving up my name. What a small price. I understand why I have to go north. I have to find a free place to live, somewhere without knights or senators or barons. I dream of returning to this poor land some day with a free army and liberating these people from the chains they don't even see. I dream of how they'll thank me when they feel that weight lifted. But that's a long time off. For now I must attract as little attention as possible. I'll be off once I've healed these bites and gathered some food. So long as they think me mad, even those knights won't bother me much. The ones from my spawn place may be a problem, though.
I owe her my life, and I will give what I owe.

I was going to revive this topic earlier today, but then somebody else did it for me. 
- I am repairing tools and watching the people around me die, unfortunately not the ones who have the stuff I want.
- I’m heading home to figure out how to put copper into bananas and make them into carrots.
- I am walking through the mountains to get back to the city that has food.
- I am upholding the Articles of the Republic.
- I am meeting all these pleasant people in the country.
- I’m warking far the Duke gothering hemotite, and he gives me fud. I da like fud.
- I am a new spawn who doesn’t have enough of a personality yet to come up with a good description of myself.

I am working for a mining company and unexpectantly was trusted by the owner and for this he has my undieing loyalty
I am working for a couple and have recetly taken a liking to travelling after discovering how much fun bike riding is
I am an unfortunate soul who happened upon misfortune early in life and is now stuck in a bank all alone waiting for the generous bank manager to find healing foods
I am a craftsman who takes fierce pride in the house built with my own two hands
I am a prisoner aboard a pirate ship trying to put the murder of my friends behind me. Am trying to achieve the trust of the pirates, but am stuggling with how to do this without taking anyone's life
I am finally making something of myself after having a terrible bought of the sleeping sickness and almost did not make it. When I awoke, I found myself the oldest one in a small village. Am working at getting life back in this town with a couple of people who are fast becoming friends, though they tend to sleep a lot.
I am a blacksmith who stumbled upon a golden business opportunity. Earning the trust of a knight led to a loan that put my fears at ease. Already have one worker who seems trustworthy though he can't remember much of his past (Something about a shovel:)
I am an aspiring seaman travelling to the sea to build a boat and start a trading company
I am first mate on a ship that seems to be going nowhere. Am thinking the captain is a bit absent-minded but will trust him...for now

I am a young, naive, bimboish (?) female who is afraid to get dirty and who have decided that marrying rich is the best way to Cantr-life success.
My favorite character yet.

I am...
...Gathering enough wood to put a smaller boat to my Longboat... to leave this place!
...Being accused of something I never did, or so I think?
...Balancing whether to keep the wood, or to just settle down...
...Angrily selling the final 6k of coal I've been holding for almost my entire life(edit: doing this, after harvesting it all for TBR only to find them leaving...)
...Making repairs on items left by deceased ones.
...Currently in refugee, harvesting over 10,000 carrots to make my return to a democracy-deprived community... Grr...
...Escaping justice, using her good looks and innocent face to hide somewhere.
...Carrot! You gotsa know him! He's currently running on the road, thinking about life, foodless (on purpose) because if he doesn't make a decision on the way, he's going to kill himself.
...Thinking over his wrongdoings in prison
...Looking for an army that will recruit
...Trying to start a company of Lawyers after seeing the horrific, unjustice murder, or execution, of a thief... But being the arsehole this character is, also helping in 'finishing off' of the murder.

And now, an update.
I am carting coal back to a remote town in hopes of achieving my dream... a military position. It's been almost twenty-five years coming, and it may finally be within my grasp.
I've returned to my home after a long, disappointing business trip. One of my employees is bumbling about the wilderness, and another is here with me making something of our lives.
I've made it back to my city... oh, how I love it there. My hotel is fine, finally getting open for business! Maybe this year... or the next year...
I am bored. And hopeless. Maybe some pirates will come by and kill me.
I am a knight... devoted to my order and to my town. I just hope I can actually make a difference.
I am putting the final chapters into my greatest work yet, the cornerstone of my faith. My town is likely to disregard it, as they have all of my other myths and teachings. Ungrateful....
We found it! Finally! And it's completely uninhabited! Or are they coming back? I don't know, mates...
I've been moved from my hometown and stationed in its colony... without explanation or an apparent reason. Sometimes I wonder about my leaders...
I am still writing, don't worry. I'll be around to enrich your lives for years to come. And yes, I've decided that I do like her. I just hope she wakes up.
I'm sailin', eh? Not likin' it one bit. Nothin' to hunt, but plenty of meat for eatin'. I hope there's some good game wherever we're goin', eh? Wouldn't wanna waste the trip.
I am plotting, but it looks hopeless. This town is too poor, I may go south. But the resources are all here... hmm...
I found out that getting rich wasn't as easy as I thought it was. Some complications arose, but I'm still on the trade route. Patience...
I've pretty much given up all hope of entertainment. I'm sewing clothes for myself in a town. The view of the mountains is nice, but the company is lacking. I'm sure to be pretty with my new clothes, though!
I've just spawned... in paradise. The view is amazing, and the people are so nice! It's too bad I'll have to do this to them... or do I have to? We'll see, won't we?
Estoy cultivando zanahorias porque no tengo nada de comida. Cuando estoy terminado, voy a subir mi lancha y ir... pues, no sé. Voy a ir.
I was a loyal pirate... probably the most loyal. My leadership was lacking, but I followed them to wherever they were leading me. And then, my friend turned on me. She was so quiet and nice at the beginning, and then she was so confused and scared... it's too bad it had to be me...
RIP Hector.
