Character sketch: Helminth "Hamhock" Hammerhand the Horrible

So, since moving, this is the second gaming group I tried. I enjoyed the game and group immensely.

First of all, it is Hackmaster, a system I've been dying to try for years. Second, the group, while a few years younger than me, is tight and fun to listen to. The only drawback is that the town the game is located in is practically labyrinthine, so I had to pull over and consult my phone for new directions as I found myself often in wrong lanes and turning when I didn't want. I think I'll get it right the second (or third or fourth) time and then it will be a non-issue.

The character was an existing guy who I got to re-name, and he had some residual XP. If he makes it out alive, I'll be second level. That's supposed to be a warhammer in his hands, which he put to good use on a couple of orcs. Fun times!

Creative Activity

I always hear how creative activities are supposed to feel fulfilling and enriching, but me, I get ornery about everything else I have to do with my day. When I'm in a creative mode, it's like there's not enough space in my head to be able to handle both real life and whatever stuff I may be trying to make. So frustrating. I think I was made for a simpler life, and cut from simpler stuff. Opinions? What about you?

Character sketch

It has been a long, long time since I've posted. But, I'm playing in a game even if I'm a bit bummed by my lack of production.

So, here's my 1st level cleric, Tigerface. He's a Thamsheen and descended from a minor noble family who tortured and tattoed him before disowning him, all for just bein' a good, lawful cleric.

The game is on G+, check it out. Just be aware that my character will probably be dead before you get there, so don't feel too bad if you didn't get your chance to backstab him yourself!

Back cover: revisited

revision 4?
James Nostack suggested some changes since he had some trouble guessing what certain things are. Not that I really know what these female warriors are doing either, but they're doing something, right?

Back cover?

back cover
To contrast the mood with the front cover, and the all boys club on the front, I decided to show a different view on the back cover.

Something really wrong/bad here I should know about?
