Balance friends, I am out of this for a while. I can get back in one or two weeks, difficult to predict. You will do fine(r) without me. Good luck!

Meh, I was gonna get to Alder, but real life suddenly came crashing in, and I don't have time to play at all. I'll be back in about 4 days, so somebody take over alder, you can use the first save file provided. Enjoy, and I'll see you soon.

Hey guys,
I'm really late jumping in here, but would it be possible for me to join the Forces of Balance? I can't guarantee that I'll do especially well, but I'd love to be a part of this.
thanks.

By all means, join our illustrous group! We're all too lazy to get much done anyway... I'll put up my drakish fighter tomorrow, he's going well, but I'm kind of bored playing him...

Ular, I've added you.
The balance team could use someone to move 'em alongNo one dead, but no one really far in yet.
Ancient Member
Sure, one is dead. I would kill another one, but I really can't at the moment.

Axon is coming along nicely.
I'm now very conflicted over which weapons I should give him. We have a dagger of death as well as an adamantium halberd of penetration, but I still want to stick with spears for their DV bonuses.
The pyramid should be a priority now, and we need a source of spenseweed for the ToEF, which I did not find in the big room.

Yippee! I'm in!
Okay, I generated a drakeling merchant, because I just played one (he didn't last too long, but I got drunk and killed him off foolishly)... by lvl 13 he found 7LB, AoLS, PoGA, and plenty of other good stuff.
Here's the beginning... just generated so no action yet.
Soloman was an even-minded citizen from the swamp of Pusland. He was only moderately wealthy, but not because of his sound and fair business practices, but rather the close minded world around him did not understand the true value of premium mud, stagnant water, mossy herbs, and witch doctored concoctions. He heard of the terrible onslaught of chaos and the numerous corrupt merchants war profiteering in the Drakalor Chain, he felt morally obligated to help the poor citizens and make an honest buck.
During his sickly youth he was well known to spot deeds of mischief and tattle on those ne'er do wells (Alert), and not surprisingly had learned to run from them after they found out it was him (Long Stride). In those frequent beatings he did receive, he painfully learned how to shield himself from the worst of their blows (Careful).
On a beautiful spring day he bid his parents good bye, packed up his few belongings (which included a little starting supply of potions), and made the long trek to the land of danger.

YOUR HISTORY:
Your parents are travelling adventurers. They are doing moderately

In your childhood you were a credit to your family. Your people
loved you and enjoyed your presence.
In your youth you became seriously ill and suffered for many years.
When your disease finally was cured you were left weakened, both
physically and spiritually, and bereft of the joys of youth.
Your young adulthood was characterized by hard and long work. You
had decided to study under a renowned master. To your great disappointment
you had to find out, that he was a hard, unjust and tyrannic man,
embittered by his old age. Your apprentice years were quite terrible.
You decided to become a Merchant. During your apprenticeship you
specialized on magical potions.

Axon should forget the dagger of death, and keep using spears. He can then always whip out the adamantium halberd of penetration and kick high-PV asses with enormous weapon skill!
