[magnor]

I already posted in the story forums, before I saw this. Ah well, can't win 'em all.

Name--Magnor (No, not really my IRL name)
Age--17
Location--Texas
# hrs. online/week--Quite a few, though most late at night.
Days/times online--Usually every night, late at night, give or take a few days per week.
# hrs./week you might be able to dedicate to our PW--I'd be able to dedicate a good amount, considering I love to write.
What you would like your main job(s) to be here--Story/character writing

Website Design Experience--Very Little (1)
Scripting Experience--Even less (.5)
Module Writing/Building Experience--Quite a bit, especially if you allow me to include my scenario making I've done in other games (HOMM III and its expansions, Starcraft and its expansion, Warcraft II and its expansion and Warcraft III, AoE I and II and their expansions, LOM:SE, and quite a few others too many too list. (9)
Custom content Experience--With NWN, some, but not much. See above. (7)
DM Experience--None. (0)
Player Experience--In NWN, a good amount. DnD in the real world, none (My dad hates it. Says it's the devil, etc., blah blah blah.) (6)
D&D PnP Experience--Oops. See above. (0)
Forgotten Realms Knowledge--A little. I've read the Exile trilogy, the story of Drizzt up to his arrival and acceptance in Icewind Dale. And I'm reading up on more general history every day (I get to spend a lot of free time at a bookstore as of late.) (5 and growing)
Lands of Intrigue Knowledge--Little, but that can be fixed by those handy-dandy PDFs. (1 and will grow)

Favorites:
Race--Human or Half-elf.
Class--Fighter to Weapon Master.
Alignment--Neutral good
PnP D&D gameworld--See above, but I like what I know of Faerun.
Gaming Style--My characters are charismatic and pragmatic. They usually see both sides of issues well and are quick to try and reconcile differences, but also quick to prove their skill if the call arises. They are modest but confident, not seeking glory and fame but not avoiding it, either.
RP Personality Archetype--Magnor, who is almost always my character in RPGs, is the stoic, skilled, brooding warrior. Dark hero type. Lots of skeletons in the closet that he's paranoid will come out and ruin something here in the present, and lots of self-inflicted guilt for something that happened way back when.


Of interest: I love to create. I write and I sprite, for any of you who know what that is, most of all. If you want to see my work:
Magnor armored [Sprites]
Magnor in plain clothes [Sprites]
Magnor's bio [Writing]
And a list of attacks/abilities and their descriptions [Writing]
More stuff can be found at Rianoc, my website.

-E- Typos and cleaning up.

I'm not sure how much help I can be but I'd like to give what I can. If there are those out there that can design like crazy but need ideas, i've got that covered. I'm tinkering around trying to build my own stuff in NWN but it's slow going. I'm hoping to figure out how to build and my goal is to reproduce Waterdeep for the game but that is going to take a good amount of time.
I am an expert at finding loopholes and errors, I tend to fall into them so if you need a sacrificial lamb for beta tests I'm here to serve.

[ezikial]

Name:
Ezikial (AKA Zach Lewis)
Age:
20 years old
Location:
Hoosierville, Indiana
# hrs. online/week:
A solid 40 hours (I play way too many MMOs)
Days/times online:
M thru F 5:00 10:00 CST, Almost all day Saturday and Sunday
# hrs./week you might be able to dedicate to our PW :
Almost all of it; I only really play one MMO, and it doesn't give the same RP satisfaction I find with a solid fan/development base like this.
What you would like your main job(s) to be here:
I love writing up lore and just getting into the thick of it with gamers with quests and RP. However, scripting is a passion of mine as well.

Website Design Experience: 4
Created my own in HTML, learned a little Java at school.
Scripting Experience: 6
I'm a Computer Science Major, as well as a dabbler in personal module building.
Module Writing/Building Experience: 4
Created my own for friends as well as for my own amusement.
Custom content Experience: 1
I was never good with Hak packs, though I'm not afraid to try and learn.
DM Experience: 7
Five years of PnP DMing, as well as a year or so of online DMing. Memorizing the tables helped a tad too
Player Experience: 8
I've been playing PnP and video games for as long as I can remember (which I know isn't that long ).
D&D PnP Experience: 8
I would spend hours staying up at night pouring over the DnD books, comitting as much as I could to memory.
Forgotten Realms Knowledge: 8
Another subject I spent long nights studying, the FR world has always interested me (Which is why I'm not to sure about the new Eberron world ).
Lands of Intrigue Knowledge: 3
I've only recentely started reading into this, but like my FR and DnD study, I'll certainly spend the time to learn everything I can.


Favorites:
Race: Dwarf. Something about a loyal, yet gruff and reserved race that always got to me.
Class: Toss up between paladin and rogue. I know, totally different, but they both offer so many RP possibilities.
Alignment: Lawful, whether good or evil. There's always a method to my madness.
PnP D&D gameworld: Forgotten Realms.
Gaming Style: Roleplay all the way. As long as the roleplay action and suspense is good, I can go entire games without rolling my initiative.
RP Personality Archtype: Honor bound, but distant and aloof from those around him.

The moment I started to read about this project I couldn't help but get excited. There are so many great ideas that are being brought forward, and I'd like to do what I can to see them through.

As a couple of others have said, I certainly don't mind modding/scripting/building to get what needs to get done, done. If there's something imperative to the project, let me know and I'll get to work on it. But, when the dust has settled, I'd like to see myself as a DM as well, working with the players and affecting the storyline.
