[I]Koom Valley[/I]


That was where the trolls ambushed the dwarfs, or the dwarfs ambushed the trolls. It was far away. It was a long time ago. No one is sure who was victorius....


This is somewhat revelant now in Ankh Morpork, The Watch have experienced a slight problem with the murder of a single, respected dwarf, and are now almost on the verge of the Battle of Koom Valley occuring again.... Right in front of their Watch house. In their desperation, they seek the services of a Junior Inspector Beet (As in the Vedgetable) Infidels-with-Religous-Texts to find out more on the death of this dwarf and prevent what could be a potential war (And Humourus at that). All that Beet has to do is evade would-be assassians, Homicidal Dwarves and possibly sentinent Rocks (Or Trolls as some want them called). Then he has to somehow assist Captian Vimes with reading "Where's My Cow?" to his son every night.

(OOC: As you can see, I have made a little spin on Terry Pratchetts latest City Watch series book.)

------------------Character Creation----------
With this I'm getting a little help from Oxymandius Jones' Character creation thread as it is well done.

Name: You can pull anything out for the name; If your character is a Troll then their name will be Geologically inspired, A Dwarf will have some first name and then be accompanied by something like Thighbiter or Skullcrusher.

Age: 7 - 100, I would think... Although if youwant you can even be Dead.

Profession: Not everyman is a beggar, Smart People actually join guilds and less smart people join the watch. Really smart people turn out like C.M.O.T Dibbler.

Backstory: What your character has done prior to the Rocks and Ankle biters fighting (Trolls and Dwarves respectivly). No one appears from nowhere.... usually.

Personality: What you character is like.

Stuff: Do you own things? At least you own a pair of pants (Hopefully, Otherwise it could become a disturbing war) and if you are someone like Nobby Nobbs then you'd probably have that persons pants.

Talents: Can you read or Write? Speak Intelligble English? Know the right end of a Knife.

Name: Samantha "Sam" Mudslider

Age: 16

Profession:Achery Teacher

Backstory: When Sam was younger, she lived in the village of Denderoth. She was very rich but unlike all the other rich kids in Denderoth (Which there were very few) who were spoiled and bratty, she was kind and gentle. but one day, the Trolls attacked her village for unknown reasons and destroyed everything: all the buildings, the families, and all the crops. the only survivors were Sam and her pet phoenix, Finnalow. No one knows how they survived. Sam and Finnalow went back to the remains of their house and found their parents under the rubble dead. Sam ran away from that town. Now 7 years have passed and now Sam and Finnalow are just wanderers around the world. SHe gets caught stealing a lot just to stay alive
Personality: Sam is the kind of person who will help anyone in need. She is very kind and gentle. She is very perky and really thats what gets her into trouble. Very clumsy.

Stuff: Appearance- Ok i know this is from FFX2 but its the only pic i could find that looks like my idea of sam! its too hard to explain in words too. just make her hair black

[IMG]http://membres.lycos.fr/bffx2/images/awyuna2.jpg[/IMG]

Talents: She uses a Bow and arrow for fighting sometimes and a sword if Sam knows its going to be a long fight. She is able to transform into any type of being (monster, wolf, etc.)

Sorry xRiku Fanx1256 but you're off the mark with your character. See; Thud is based on a Discworld novel called Thud and as such is a comedy (And Satirical at that) so your character needs to be a comedic one. I mean here's my one for example.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Name: Beet Infidels-with-Religous-Iconography

Age: 26

Profession: Beet is the former of Ankh Morporks first ever P.I office and is infamous for treating anything like it's a murder case even though it is usually just someone Eating-and-Running. He is also the leader of the Omnian Church-of-Insignificant-Dieties although it is little known as he is one of ten members (The others being a Donkey named Bobbles and various Inanimate objects).

Backstory: Beet is originally from Omnia where he had established a somewhat-succesful Private Investigater service before being persecuted for his Religous views. Or to be more precise; They kicked him out because he had started a cult which pissed off everyone off. As such he came to Ankh Morpork because they didn't care about cults whichwere a dime a dozen in the city.

At Ankh Morpork, He established another P.I service and was well recieved by the City Watch as It gave the citizens a way to sort out their own problems without resorting to warfare or coming to the Watch. The Watch later came to him for assistance in sorting out the situation even though it was his first really big case.

Personality: Beet is racist, that much is true, He constantly refers to Trolls as 'Boulders' and Dwarves as 'Thighbiters' (Ironically a Popular Dwarven surname). However, he has a heart of gold that has been tarnished after spending too much time near Corporal Nobby Nobbs. He is also really religous and is constantly badgering others to join his cult, constantly referring to others as Infidels and avoids other Omnians for beliefs. Last of all, He is also a massive Coward and absolutely refuses to fight.

Stuff: Suprisingly enough, Beet has the whole deal of Detective equipment. Cigar, Monocles (Which routinely change eyes that they are on), Magnifying Glass and a full uniform. He also has an office which doubles as a Closet and Bedroom while he also somehow has access to a cellar to hold his cult meetings in.

Talents: Beet can just barely read and write, contrary to his occupation and doesn't spell very well. He can speak well though, and possess the odd ability to smoke dozens of Cigars in a day without harming himself.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As you can see, Beet Infidels-with-Religous-Texts is an easy character to utilise in a Comedic way. Try and create a funny one also.

[FONT=Trebuchet MS][COLOR=DarkGreen]Name: Terghar Cannonfodder

Age: totally dead

Profession: Friendly ghost.

Backstory: Haunted orphanages and hospitals, entertaining the sick and poor alike, for no money...since he has no need for it.

Personality: Always an optimist, Terghar has no negative emotions. He's dead, why worry? Hakuna matata. Besides, negative emotions are bad karma and who wants to be reincarnated as a fungus?

Stuff: Ghostly clothing and ghostly armor and a ghostly sword. None of which actually work, or have ever been used. The Cannonfodder family has a long history of not using their weapons in combat and it would have been a shame for Terghar to have broken that tradition.

Talents: He can always keep a clear head...literally and metaphorically. In addition, he tends to be a good scout, though he is easily distracted...by squirrels and the like.[/COLOR][/FONT]
