Ummm, I can't....you're the DM.

[Shan Vortan]

Hello, people!

Yes, old good Shan will be retunring to the Death Gate thread soon!

By the way, LWW, I believe, that your character is the same one, whom I met in the previous Death Gate thread in the Evil PlanetAD&D.

I will behave, as if all the events, which took place in the old Death Gate thread have happened, but our group was separated for some reason. Also, since the previous Death Gate thread was cut in the middle of it, I will have a slight memory gap, i.e. I will not remember how and why we got separated.

[Shan Vortan]

P.S. (Sorry, I forget to add it to my previous post)

By the way, I will post my character's statistics both into this thread, and into "Character Description" thread. I created my character using 3.0 edition.

History:

Shan is one of the few so-called Trueborn Shades, who was born as Shade. Trueborn Shades are rare, as most of the Shades are created from normal humans many years after their birth. And needless to say, Shan’s family, which was one of the noble families of the City of Shade, was very proud of Shan’s birth.
However, when Shan came to the age of thirteen, when his magical training was supposed to begin, pride for Shan instantly turned into a bitter disappointed, as it was discovered, that Shan had no magical talent, which was the great social stigma in the City of Shade.
To hide their stigma, Shan’s family forced Shan not to leave their estate, except for the rare occasions. During the next four lonely years, Shan discovered passions for weapons and combat. And even though Shan had to train mostly by himself, he managed to become more or less skillful warrior. But despite his constant training, Shan began to get tired with such a life, but then, he was gifted with a chance to change it. When the City of Shade flied to the elven city of Evereska to aid in defending Evereska against Phaerimms, Shan used the confusion of battle to his advantage. Shan took his favorite magical two-bladed sword and magical chainmail, both of which were made from such a rare metal as Darksteel, from the family armory, took some of the traveling supplies and gear, and left his family estate along with the City of Shade forever. In the confusion of battle, nobody paid attention to yet another Shadovar soldier, who pass magical bridge to the ground to join the battle. And when Shan’s disappearance was noticed, it was already far away, and the City of Shade was already on its way back to the desert of Anauroch. Since then, it was officially proclaimed, that Shan died honorably in the battle against Phaerimms.
Since then, Shan has been wondering around the World of Toril, enjoying his life outside the grim walls of his family estate and the City of Shade. Even though Shan encountered only mistrust and hatred, when his real appearance is revealed, and had to fight for his life more times in his short life, then he can remember, Shan don’t regret about of anything and ready and willing to fight for his life and freedom, when it is necessary. Two years of loneliness, travels and nearly constant fighting made Shan cold and merciless, but not cruel man.

By the way, people, I have one little problem. For some reson, I can't find Death Gate thread among Freeform/Open RPG Threads.

Whay is that?

I was sure, that Death Gate thread was among Freeform/Open RPG Threads...

Was Death Gate thread moved? If so, can somebody tell me, where to find it now?

[LadyWinterWolf]

Yes, my character Erianna is the same from the Death Gate threads at both Old and Evil Planet.

As to the Death Gate thread here.....I'm checking on that.

[Shan Vortan]

As apparently "Death Gate" Online RPG is now dead, I will consider myself open for joining any other game.
