Wonderful! Thank you all so very much for getting your RPCs in!
But before then, we have one complication. :/
There are 4 Hunters, them being my RPC, Hunter's, Batonmaster's, and Joeldlaw's. Of course, two of them are Rangers, but still similar classes.
One difference is that two are in Aelaedal, one in Ipeceria, and (Batonmaster's RPC; I need it finished) undecided. Of course, this is a very common and well liked class, so I don't blame anyone for choosing that class, but that means there is a high lack of other classes.
There are only 2 Clerics, but that is fine, as they are both on different lands.
There are 2 Warlocks, both being Dark Elves. There is also a third, a Wizard, as a Dark Elf. Problem is, that's 3 magic users in Ipeceria. Unless people were to change races or lands (which is fine with me - you can be a Dark Elf in Aelaedal or an Elf in Ipeceria and vise versa), there would be more of one class and less of another.
That leads me on to say that there is only one tank-type class, that being LegoBuilder. He chose a Dwarf Warrior, which is great for team composition.
And that goes on to say that there are multiple Dark Elves and Humans, but a lack of everything else. Humans are fine, but a high amount of Dark Elves on one party is a huge disadvantage, with day and night.
I plan on changing my RPC, as it's not required (but I will keep Avelyn. I'll just make a new RPC). Everyone else will have to make their own decisions, but until this is resolved, I can't start the RP, unless everyone is fine with having a weakened party.
I'm not directly RPing, but I think you all will have the most problems over mine.
Umm. . . My character is a Wizard, and a human. I said mine was from the LAND of the Dark Elves, but he was a Human, not a Dark Elf.
Yeah, I just checked and I made a mistake. That's likely because someone chose their class as both a Warlock and a Wizard, them being a Dark Elf.
OOC: Not really... I don't see any other classes that would really fit my character.
Well, like I said, choose who you want. If you want to protect your team, go as someone like a Paladin. If you want to be in the back, dealing damage to the enemy, be someone like a caster or a Hunter. If you want to get behind the enemy lines, be a Rogue.
What type of RPC do you want to play?
OOC: Ugh, none of the above?... I don't know. He wouldn't be one to be in the back, but he would use a bow and i want a class good with bow.
OOC: Not really... I don't see any other classes that would really fit my character.
I don't want to be too confrontational here, but, unless you've just been keeping it from us, you don't really have a character. You have a name, a job title, and a list of clothing and weapons. No personality, no backstory, and no description other than the clothing and weapons. In short, nothing that makes for an interesting or well-developed character.
OOC: Ok, I have played in a lot of rps. I also read books. I like for personality to be found out as the thing goes on. I don't like being told what someone is like when first seen. Sure, i can add a description of him i guess. It doesn't seem like there is much to describe other than clothes though. I'm not good at thinking up backstories... I could if i had to,... but i'd rather not.

OOC: That sounds like you would want him to be a tanker class then, since a bow up close would need more health than normal. Paladin makes sense as well.
Tul Generas of the Orcs, Darthraxx of the dragon Knights. I RP, and have lots of fun.

I just mean that you need to have an idea of his personality going in, so that you know how he will act in the situations he is put in by the RP. I'm not saying that you have to tell everyone or that it can't change at all. I was thinking just a physical appearance, like facial features, hair, build, etc. I believe a good backstory is important because it informs a character's actions and provides motivation, but I can't force you to do anything you don't want to do.

Any class can use any weapon and become fluent with that weapon. This is not a video game - this is an RPG. Play your character how you want. Don't feel limited by anything.

OOC: Well, if you need him to not be hunter then... warrior i guess? He would still be a sharpshooter though, right?

OOC: Well, say i write his personality down. Then i do something later in the rp that doesn't match it... yeah. I have an idea of his personality. etc doesn't help. Ok.

Yup! Although, I recommend having a sword on hand to match your class's abilities, and for close combat.
If you do plan on being up close in combat, yet still want to use a bow, you may want to consider a crossbow.

That would mean one of three things. One, your character's personality has changed due to the situations he has experienced. This is normal and expected. Two, your character's personality is simply not what you had written down. This could simply be because you feel that the personality you originally created wasn't quite right. That's okay. Simply revise it and continue. Three, you are not playing your character with a consistent personality. This is bad. It means that other characters and the GM cannot work properly with you, as they simply don't know who you are. Note that this is different from a character with unpredictable impulses.
I find it hard to believe you don't understand what is meant by a physical description.

OOC: Just gonna drop this since i don't like arguing... He would be hobbit size, and i could add hair color. Facial features like... hair or...? Also, the last ok was to backstories if you couldn't tell.

I don't either, so I'm sorry if I upset you at all. Got it.
