Casting Call- Looking for Author NPC's

edited May 2013 in The Foundry
Hi! A part of my new quest takes place in an Author's Guild. I'd love to use some "real" foundry authors if possible. I am looking for people who wouldn't mind filling up the background atmosphere. If you are interested, please send me a pm or respond here with the following:

Gender and Race/ Other if you would be represented by a mob or animal avatar
A one sentence "catch phrase" if your character would say something.

These characters will just be background npcs and are not featured in the story line. I promise not to do anything embarrassing with them.

This will be a "breaking the fourth wall" kinda scene where the authors behind foundry quests can be seen in the background. So, it can be anything that would represent you as an author, I suppose even the default author image. Thanks!

    I'll volunteer. I have myself as the difficulty slider in my quest, right as you go into the quest. A female human. Check her out if you haven't already.

    There is a rumor floating around that I am working on a new foundry quest. It was started by me.

    Sure, why not. nezroy, half-orc, male. I'm not really picky about how it looks, but if you don't want to have to think, here is a set of sliders/settings I was playing with: http://i.imgur.com/QBWg99F.png

    A catchphrase OTHER than "hey come play my quest!"? :) Uh... how about "Wherever you go, there you are."

    Though if sillyness/lore is no issue, feel free to go with something more inline with my avatar... skeleton archer 1 with simple orc boots and solid eyes works nicely :)

    That's perfect. Silliness is definitely appropriate and randomness typically fits in well with my work. :)

    I'm still working on my first quest but if you want to include either of my characters they are.

    R3sistance - Female Tiefling Cleric, pale for a tiefling with blonde hair and downward pointing horns.
    Doomsday - Male Human Rogue, fairly bulky big guy with side parted hair and green eyes... totally not based on myself!

    Here is a picture of R3sistance that I forgot I had...

    Hah, this sounds amusing. :P

    Let's see... Jkpark - half-elf female, shoulder-length black hair with the straight fringe (I really need to start taking more screenshots), blue eyes, dark make-up. Clothes would just be any leather armour, not especially fussed in that department. :P

    Catchphrase: "They say that within us we have the capacity for go-- I need a drink."

    Sounds fun.

    Extremely old male half-elf wizard. Long gray hair with long sideburns.

    Catchphrase:
    "Look, I stopped pretending I was Raistlin way back in my teenage years, so stop bothering me 'bout it!"

    OOP: I'm not sure that I understand what you mean? Are you just looking for NPCs in general or do you envision these characters to be actual adventure creators in some way, like the "DM" character in that aweful D&D cartoon?

    None of my two toons is my avatar, so rather use this one:

    It's a lich from my Witch Hunt scenario. Base body is based on Death Serpent costume from Ebon Down barrows, though he's slightly more slender than Death Serpent.
    Call him Meedac.

    My quest was deleted in July of 2013. There were no issues, it had not violated any rules. Was deemed a bug. That quest is still missing.

    Thank you to everyone who has volunteered so far!

    There is still space available if anyone else wants to join the party! There won't be cake... but I think I saw a potato in the details that I could through it if that's your bag.

    IRL:
    Female Human
    Don't really care if you want to make me something else. Just not an orc or other goblin-kin? please? Dancing skeleton, wight, or something else horror-like would be kinda cool....

    Catch phrase(s) - author's choice, use whatever fits:
    Cute is the ultimate evil.
    It may not be empirically possible, but it is Imperially possible.
    I'm a cat. Pet me. (<--- I comment this a lot when I'm being stared at by one of my four cats.)
    Of course I'm right! I'm a woman!

    Oh, and let us know when it's done? I'd like to see the end result.

    Maybe a bit late to the party but here's one of my characters and her bio:

    chaedi.jpg

    Chaedi is an elf who is always getting herself into trouble. Her father died when she was young and this led to her rebellious nature finding free rein when she was training to be a Cleric.

    She never means any real harm but always seems to find herself in the middle of things. "Chaedi Stalkingwolf, I might have known it would be you" was a phrase that frequently echoed in the cloisters, as her exasperated teachers caught up with her latest exploits. Her plaintive reply was frequently "But I was only trying to help".

    Somehow trouble just seems to find her!

    Incase you wanted more, I'm kinda new here. :P
    "Joseph Skyrim" is my name (how do I tell what my author name is?) and this is my "npc". I circled the height thing cause he's slightly shorter than average.

    As for one liners "Hey, you look familiar..." or "...have we met before?" would suit him just fine. He gets hit in the head often you see so is very forgetful! ^_~

    You can use me. I'm a male half elf wizard with blond hair, but feel free to use a talking beer stein or whatever works.

    Catch phrase: "Ooh, I'm gonna steal this for my quest." or if I'm a stein "Hey bartender, if you give me to another dwarf, I quit."
