| Post subject: | Stormbeards |
Heya folks. So, we've noticed some interest in building this clan. Several PC's have gone and made Stormbeards to join in the shenanigans, and that's great. We have big plans for it, and it oughtta be fun for a long time to come. However, this is a budding faction of sorts. We need to keep track of the people that build stormbeards, and can't have just any random folks popping up and spouting that they're our kin! So, if at any time you feel the need to be the best dwarf you can be, go on and reply in this topic, or pm Ghostie_1, me, or Phuuphum, for permission. (Not that we're gonna turn any of you away, just that we need to keep track of it.) Thanks guys and gals! |

Ahem. The Stormbeards come from the Orsraun Mountains, the largest range in the Vilhon Reach. They have a severe dislike of dragons, as they have lived next to Emberspeak and Anglaspark, two dragons that have also taken up residence in the Vilhon Reach. They share many traits with their dwarven kin, but instead of having a natural love of mining, they lean towards brewing. Not to say that there are no Stormbeard miners, as that would be silly, but there are many breweries throughout their abode, making the famous Stormbeard Stout. Lolinus Stormbeard is the eldest son of King Thalimus Stormbeard, and as such, next in line for the throne. He set off to get his fill of adventure and such, before he would need to take over that responsibility. He took his younger brother, Kilinus, with him, who happens to be the most famous bag-piping bard in the Stormbeard Realm. They came to Amia, and loved making fun of the tallers and dragon-kin on the Isle, thus staying longer than intended. Their kin have decided to follow along, to see what all the hubbub is about (Other pc's). Soon enough, the King will pass on, and Loli will inherit the crown. But, he's come to love Amia so much, it's his intention to move the entirety of the Stormbeard Clan here. So there you have it. The extremely condensed version of our lore. (No pm's, very few mages, no straight rogues or assassins, and no blackguards. Any non evil alignment, and any dwarven deity, though Lolinus himself worships Haela Brightaxe.) We like to drink. We like to argue. We like to brawl. We like general dwarven shenanigans. "If ye ain' go' no 'air on ye chest, then ye definitely ain' one o' us, so jes go grab ye ankles an wait ye turn, this be private Stormbeard biznuss." -Kilinus Stormbeard |

Hey davis, your Stormbeards sound very much like the Hill Dwarf race from Dragonlance. Not saying that has a bad thing, those Hill Dwarves rule. http://www.dlnexus.com/lexicon/13762.aspx |

I'm not completely sure I see the connection, but so long as it's cool. The only Dragonlance book I ever read was Kaz the Minotaur, and that was only out of curiosity. There is one thing in that link that I would like to label as the complete opposite of Epic Stormbeardlyness, that of course being this line: "Fond of animals, they keep kittens, sparrows, and ponies as pets." Any self-respecting Stormbeard would backhand the hell out of any of his kin coddling a wee little kitty. Davis and I birthed the Stormbeards (Yeah. Birthed. That's what's up.) out of a desire to see some super dwarfy dwarves raising a little hell on Amia. These dwarves don't really sound like what I envision as being super dwarfy. |

The description doesn't tell much about them really. I'd consider hill dwarfs to be dwarven highlanders. |

Thanks for all the interest, guys and gals! We are currently at seven made Stormbeards, and nine expected. Fantastic. Now, remember, -no- Stormbeards should be made without the permission of Ghostie_1, Phuuphum, or myself. Preferably it will be discussed by all three of us. Now, this is fairly important. The Stormbeards are, icly, predominantly arseholes. They'll make fun of adventurers, belittle Guards, and basically, pull off some stupid stupid shenanigans. However, this is all IC. We are here to have fun, and make the game more fun for those around us. If -any- Stormbeard becomes belligerent Oocly, mean, or nasty to another character, you'll be disowned faster than you can blink. Do not break the server rules with any of this, and play nice with your fellow Amians, including the newer ones who may not be as used to rp. I wanted to make this extremely clear before this dwarven insult fest really gets goin. Be nice oocly, play the game to have fun, and make it fun for those around you. Or else. (This isn't aimed at anyone, as you're all doing great, it just needs to be remembered for any future roleplay.) OH! One last thing. I would strongly suggest avoiding anymore Stormbeards making a character whose first name ends in "inus." That's about to get way too confusing for all of us xD. Not that we'll jump you for it or anything, just consider a different sort of first name, is all I'm sayin. Thanks! |

I didn't mean for you to actually be Dwarven Bloodbeards.

We aren't planning on going anywhere. Whether or not the clan dies out is heavily dependent upon you folks saying "sign me up!" Davis and I have every intention of making our Stormbeards our main toons, and we do have some pretty sweet large scale plans for them. (subject to Disco's approval, of course) |

As far as class restrictions go, we don't want to see any PM's or RDD's. Like, ever. Generally a blackguard wouldn't fit very well because the Stormbeards aren't really an evil crew. (Not to say that there wouldn't be a couple) No assassins. We'd also like to keep it to just one or two mages, total. Of course, dwarven deities. Y'know, cuz they're dwarves. >.< |

You I will kill for funsies!! But, yes, all of what Ghostie said. The recommended classes, for anyone just at a loss, would be cleric, dd, ftr, wm, or the occasional barb. Also, if you're tumble dumping or umd dumping, it would make more rp sense to go with a few bard lvls instead of rogue. But, that's entirely yor call. |

Just wondering if a scythe would be appropriate if i played my Stormbeard as a Farmer. Sturgeon Stormbeard the Ki Master of the Crop! Level Arrangement would be 12 Fighter 16 WM 2 Bard with a few ranks in perform on his negative cha modifier just for RPing bawdy lyrics after a hard day tilling the fields? |

We didn't get banned. We got threatened with a banning because we were smart-asses and general trouble-makers. So rather than even mess with it and eventually get banned, we decided to not mess with it, thereby completely avoiding your Runedarian shenanigans. Works for everyone dandily. |

Ok. For those who might be wondering what's with the sudden abscence of the Stormbeards, we are taking a bit of a hiatus to figure out where the clan is going RP-wise. That and due to a series of unfortunate events involving a succubus Ghostie is moving temporarily and will be without his computer. However, this does not mean the SBs are going away. In fact we are coming back in force the moment Ghostie moves back and has an internet connection. That's not to say that the other SBs won't be around. You can expext to see Tali, Veri and possibly Mili and Kili with regularity. PS: I was hoping that this issue would only have to addressed once but I guess this has to be stressed: If you are a new prospect hoping to play a Stormbeard make sure that you have approval from ALL original clan members. (Phuuphum, Davis114, Ghostie_1, and Veritoss) Stay sexy -- Phuuphum |
