At long last, I am again well enough to write. I have written, and am now going to go write in other threads where possible.

Veritas is at the vet, and Alex is with him. I'm really not sure what to do in the meantime.

OOC note: I don't know if the song itself is from the right time period... but it fits the scene. The singer in the video is Squire Parsons, a well-known Gospel singer who just happens to be the son-in-law of my Godmother (rest her soul).

I am going to try this thread again this time with something more akin to my style of play, avoiding getting hit. I hope this new character meets with resounding approval.

Captain's Name: Captain (and Lord) Andrew Walder the Fifth
Captain's Age: 22
Captain's Description: A tall Welsh man with braided beard and massive muscles, Andrew is also a former tank driver driven into air corps service, something he is not extatic with. Much preffering the solidarity of mother earth to the wind and rain of the skies. He takes a typical tank driver mentality with social situations but is suprisingly tactical in his manuvers in combat. He hates being nobility and will shy away from any questions about his heritage and how he became captain of a Anglewing. With the recent deaths of his three older brothers (two of whom were air corps, one of whom was a radar operator), and his father's debilitating heart attack and stroke combination which left him a vegtable, Andrew has been thrust into two services he would rather have never taken on.

Dragon's Name: Tempero
Dragon's Age: 40
Dragon's Breed: Anglewing
Dragon's Description: Born in 1899, Tempero was pressed into the service of Lord Admiral Johnathan Walder, and loved every second of the command it gave him. He is somewhat boistorous and exudes an aura of leadership but unfortuantely with the untimely change in his first Captain's condition, he has been thrust into service with the youngest of the man's sons and into a role where he is taking orders, not giving them.

Background: Raised on a large acreage in the northern Welsh hills, both Tempero and Andrew have a great appreciation for natural beauty and motherland of England. They were never the greatest of friends when Andrew was just a lad, infact Andrew secretly as a child almost hated the air corps because of it keeping his father away so much. With the deaths of his three older brothers and the insistiance of his sister that she wished to remain out of the war, Andrew was pressed into service as captain of his own Anglewing.

Tempero is a veteran of the First World War and a very tactical commander. He chooses his angles of attack and defense with precision not known to most dragons. An expert at dealing with Bavarians and other middleweights, he is known to carry a slightly lighter crew of men then the average middleweight so that he can manuver more elegantly and quickly. He is very set in his ways about being a commander but now that he is just your averae dragon he is very good about giving "advice" as he calls it, to other dragons.

That's actually a well-thought-out character.

Character looks good, just be careful because Nathan and Frostfell are already trying to muscle in on the "advice" matter. :wink:

One complaint though.

Spellcheck... Really.

What is this "try to muscle in" business? Nathan gives advice full stop. There is no try, there is success. It's not his fault that some people don't take it.

It is his fault that he's not very diplomatic about it. :wink:

You could do a protection racket thingy. Take my advice and I promise the Wendigo over there won't eat you alive. I imagine that people would fall in line over that.

Well, I kinda just did that. "Take my advice or I rat you out the the high command that hates your guts. And if anything happens to me, my huge bloodthirsty dragon over there will go psycho, so you can't stop me without fucking yourselves."

Hey hey, you never explicitly threatened to rat on anyone to the High Command.

Honestly, that would have worked a lot better than "I will break you with Frostfell".

Go reread my posts. Frostfell was a distinctly not the main threat. It was, however, the one everyone else seemed to latch onto.

Can you blame people for latching onto the prospect of a 35-ton Wendigo breaking their wings?

Of course I can't. It's a beautiful image.

I have a feeling it's an image about to be repeated on a despairing Bavarian.

Firewalker, this character will work, but you will need to wait until the current scene is over, which may be a little bit.
