Hmm. Thanks for the heads-up. I think, in the grand tradition of email, we'll march forwards since I think your abcense won't make too much of a difference, but we'll see. With any luck, you'll be back just in time for either the finale or the downtime before Mission 2.
As a side comment, even moving as speedily as we have been, knowing the amount of stuff I have prepared... the 6 month request earlier on doesn't seem likely to be fulfilled, as a warning. I'm guessing it'll be closer to 9-15 months, depending on how many delays occur. Oh well. Thankfully, for those who are interested in the long haul, I'm reasonably certain that replacements are available should some drop.
And oh yes. My college mail server was down thanks to the blackout, as well. Good thing I have the backup...

Sorry, should have posted earlier.
Uvaer is from the mountainous region north of Upper Vorfinch. 6 months of the year the region is covered in snow. Summers are surprisingly warm.
My family live in a mining community set up by the old Seridian government. Since the collapse of the empire we gained autonomy. The community is large but very little contact with outsiders now occurs. Recently small trading has began to occur with the new Meria Empire.
The local noble family is only distantly related to the Seridian nobility and due to the isolated location and interbreeding with the locals is now considered to be local themselves.
It is a tight nit community that now has to be self sufficient both economically and militarily. Goblins and the Dark Elves while rare are still a danger in this part of the world. The town sits around the keep, built when the Seridian Empire was at its height.
Up until 25 years ago we traded equipment, metals and mining knowledge with the dwarves however they have since disappeared leaving us almost completely isolated.
Whilst most of the community originally was to support the mining industry this lessoned with the fall of the Seridian Empire only recently becoming important again.
My family was traditionally in the service of the old Seridian Duke as huntsmen, trackers and rangers however more recently with the degradation of the noble family we have served the community as a whole in a similar role.
Due to the hostile nature of the world around us we have also had to serve as outlying border guards/scouts/sentries. More so than others from the town.
My parents are alive and well. I have an excellent relationship with my parents.
I have three siblings. Three sisters. Two are married, one still lives at home with us.
I am unusually single for someone my age. Mostly because most of the local girls bore me with their insular view of the world. I see the mountains and want to see what’s on the other side.
Although visitors are rare one young family did arrive in Bailton staying for a number of years. My eldest sister fell in love with the son of that family and travelled with them when they eventually moved on.
We have not heard from her in 4 years.
I am bored with my life in Bailton and have decided to search for my sister.
I have been searching for over a year. Initially I travelled through Seilje, Valkyborg and Adelhyde.
I had heard from relatives of the family that my sister and her husband may be in Meria. It appears not, so far. I now have no further leads, have no money and do not want to return to Bailton.
Hence I join the army just to get enough money to move on, in the search for my sister.
There is some other stuff, but I won't post everything.
I'm Human. Ranger. 5 11. 180 lbs. Nondescript, brown hair, blue eyes. Leather armour, I carry a Great Sword but prefer to use my bow.
