For those of us wishing to be, or already have been, accepted to the Development Team, this area is for all of us to officially introduce ourselves. While this is not an "application," it will let us know where peoples' strengths are and help us to organize where people want to be. Please follow something similar to this format:
Name (real life names optional) Age (optional) Location # hrs. online/week Days/times online # hrs./week you might be able to dedicate to our PW What you would like your main job(s) to be here
Website Design Experience Scripting Experience Module Writing/Building Experience Custom content Experience DM Experience Player Experience D&D PnP Experience Forgotten Realms Knowledge Lands of Intrigue Knowledge
Favorites: Race Class Alignment PnP D&D gameworld Gaming Style RP Personality Archtype
For the Experience/Knowledge section, rate yourself from 1 (low) to 10 (high).
Also feel free to add anything you think may be important or interesting. And don't forget to mention if you want to be considered for a DM spot when our wold eventually goes live. Those who helped build will have first choice as opposed to those who just join hoping to DM.

Website Design XP: 1 Scripting XP: 4 Module Writing XP: 9 Custom Content XP: 5 DM XP: 9 (15+ years) Player XP: 9 (18+ years) PnP D&D XP: 9 Forgotten Realms Know: 9 Lands of Intrigue Know: 9

One of my past favorite characters was a runty gnome warrior with a huge superiority complex named Aro "the Strong," who, without the aid of his Girdle of Giant Strength couldn't even lift a shortsword. Another was a psionic wildtalent who was going slowly nuts from delving into the depths of his own mind. I've been a dedicated DM for many years and even kept a single, continuous campaign going for almost 7 years (real life time).

Name (real life names optional): Ricc Willett - aka Herne Age (optional): 32
Location: Portland, Ore
# hrs. online/week: 30 to 50
Days/times online: 7 days/ hours vary, but online ALOT.
# hrs./week you might be able to dedicate to our PW: 20+
What you would like your main job(s) to be here: where needed I can script, build areas/maps, DM when live, ect.
Website Design Experience: 5 (only been doing it a couple of years tho)
Scripting Experience: 5 (a couple of years here too)
Module Writing/Building Experience: 5 or 6 (I have built and still run my own mod.)
Custom content Experience:1 (never have done my own haks...Not sure how well I could do it)
DM Experience: 7 or 8 (been involved with D&D for 20 years, almost all of it as DM)
Player Experience: 3 (alot of years in D&D, but only a few years as a player)
D&D PnP Experience: er...alot. 8-9 (always room for improvement, but have been running a table of one kind or another for many years)
Forgotten Realms Knowledge: 7-8
Lands of Intrigue Knowledge: 6-7
Favorites: Race: out of the standard races (PHB player races), half elves or Dwarves
Class: (PHB)I'll say rangers or Paladins, but I like to play odd things that most DM's can/won't handle, like LE Paladins.
Alignment: LE, L/C good
PnP D&D gameworld: Fearun and Greyhawk mostly, done some Krynn and other worlds.
Gaming Style: I enjoy tables which have alot of political intrigue and such. I like games where you usually benifit more from outsmarting the enemy then you do from being better armed, tho you can't help but to fight once in a while, which I still find fun. I don't like monty haul DM's or strickly hack/slash players (read: power gamers and meta-game thinking players).
RP Personality Archtype: My most infamous Archtype is that of "Kelix the chaotic" a deviant CE archmage, that apprears from time to time as a protagonist, I also persona the famous "Fizban". "Now" as I remove my hat, to wipe the sweat off my brow "where did I put my hat?"
When the game goes live, I would very much like to DM. Run quests for the players, and moderate the server. I can also set up websites if you need help with that. To help you for now, I can help build areas and do some scripting as needed.

Delvin Wendigo was my favourite pc. An elven rogue who became a hero to a realm by accident, though cursed by the Powers of Ravenloft. I could crap on forever about him but will save you the pain.
I've played PnP Rpg's for over 18 years now. I've enjoyed games like AD&D, Shadowrun, Battletech, Vampyre the Masquerade, and many more.
I too have been disillusioned by the PW's currently on offer. None seem to live up to the PnP game. So Knightmare and I are trying to change that. I look forward to meeting and working with those of like mind.

Antoine Blacke (CG hm f1) 28 years old Daggerford
DSL (don't play online much, like to be a DM if it was organized, I'd like to play too, again, if organized. Most of my online experiences were a bit confusing. I really have had more enjoyment with the tool set. Still haven't moved out of Chapter One in the original Campaign. Did the other two XPs though)
9am-12am(m-s)
My Fair Share: I spend many hours recreating FR Cities, characters, etc. I sadly realize I could never do what I wanted to do alone(recreate FR).
I would almost like to work on regions at a time. Not much on custom content. Probably pretty good with the toolset. HUGE Forgotten Realms fan. many downloaded TSR books. Just spend $80 on a bunch. Interested in map design, scripting, dialog and plots, character recreation and conversation. also capable of recording audio and creating different voices, and conversations. female and male.
Experience (1 to 10) 5 (AMP, frontpage) 10 (Visual C++, Visual Basic) 2(many attempts but I always give up because of lack of content. I am now trying to recreate 'Under Illefarn'. it seems small enough. But God I want some horses.) 1(none NWN style, but plenty PnP style) 10(both ways, I guess except playing online) 10 10 5 (I have the Lands of Intrigue PDF, but have quite read that yet)
It's all my favorite Antoine inspires to reclaim Hellgate Keep, and of course keep it for himself. (in a totaly Chaotic-Good way, of course).
Real Life: I am a Database programmer, I have five years experience using SQL, Visual C++, Visual Basic, and Microsoft Access. I have one year experience in Front page, PHP, and MySQL. I 'may' very well have means to host some our part of the PW.
Honestly truly less interested in playing and more interested in creating. However, I wouldn't mind trying my hand at being an online DM.

I definately would be interested in DMing.
