we were somewhere around hesaim on the edge of the spinward marches when the drugs began to take hold.

Never played this, but I love Bloodbowl so I'll throw my hat in:


Name: Rolf the Horseman:
Race: Human
Class: Warrior Cavalryman
Short-Term Ambition kill my first orc, mutant, or ratman.
Long-Term Ambition Winning a hereditary title from the Emperor

Where are you from?

I'm from Streissen, in Averland. Well Duke Leopold's manor outside Heideck.

What is your family like?

We raise horses for Duke Leopold, and guard his cattle. Mom, Dad, Aelfra my older sister, her husband Seamus. It's a good life, but a bit boring.
Mom taught me everything I know about how to take care of horses and cattle.

Dad taught me to ride horses, and how to measure the worth of a horse. Duke Leopold's horses are prized in Averland, because Dad and Grandfather (he died around when I was born) have been so successful at breeding and trading horses.

Aelfra hits like a mule, and sings like a bird. I miss her.
Seamus is okay, I don't like to talk bad about folks, but he's not much of a rider.

What was your childhood like?

Peaceful for the most part, the raids out of the mountain rarely got to us, The Duke kept us drilling every summer though.
I was 7 when I was first able to hold a spear and ride at the same time.

Why did you leave home?

Two reasons. First Gunthar, the Counts Master Armsman, told stories about the marvels of the rest of the Empire. I loved those stories. As soon as I had saved enough money from racing Charra to buy her from the Count I left to see the rest of the Empire.
The second is, I was never going to be more than a servant working for Duke Leopold, or his heir Martell if I stayed on the estate. It might be prideful of me, but I wanted the chance to earn my own estate.

Who are your best friends?

Kern, was the smith's son and my best friend growing up. I expect he'll take over for his dad eventually. He doesn't understand why anyone would ever want to leave the manor.

I've gotten to know a few people on the road. A flame-haired minstrel by the name of Kella is a lot of fun, but she has gotten me into trouble a few times. Pretty sure neither of us should go to Merfeld anytime soon.
And I took a brigand's arrow to the shoulder a month or so ago, was pretty painful at the time. Chervil a wandering apothecary patched me up, I let him ride behind me on Charra to the next town. Small man, but smart.

What is your greatest desire?

I want to have an estate like Duke Leopold does once I've seen the borders of the empire. Raise a bunch of kids, cattle, and horses.

What are your best and worst memories?

My best memory is when I won my first horse race for the Duke. His armsman lifted me over their shoulders and I remember everyone cheering my name.

The worst memory was watching a witch burn in Averheim. I had just arrived in town, on my first trip their with my dad. I still hear her screams in my nightmares.


What are your religious beliefs?

Sigmund takes care of those that take care of themselves. I'm not a big believer in astrology, but if a star-seer tells you to stay home today, you stay home.

To whom, or what, are you loyal?

I'm loyal to the Empire, and I'm not one that would leave a friend behind. If I give my word to you, you can count on it.

Why are you adventuring?

To see as much of the empire as I can, and to win a fortune or title.

chin up everything sucks posted:

Just as a note, Bloodbowl has nothing to do with Warhammer Fantasy except for the names of the races/units - it is explicitly a non-canon mashup.

crush my dreams of getting a career as a runner.

Okay I've edited my character post to include what I think I needed to from the career card.

Let me know if I've missed something.

So any chance we could setup discord? IRC is blocked at work.

And good source to read up on the current WFRP fluff? I could spin a good background for a 40k character without help. But I’m a bit lost on the fantasy world.

BTW, I have Tome of Salvation if people with human characters want to roll up their DOOM randomly.

What's an 82 get me?

Also, could someone share what the Savvy talent does?
