I got a chance to play Burning Wheel for the first time last night. A one shot that rocked. As usually happens, I need to put down visuals for my character and often the ones around me...and I snuck these doodles in while the spotlight wasn't on my character.

Beliefs, Instincts and Traits really make up for juicy roleplaying opportunities... hopefully, J. and Paka will share theirs for their characters... but here is my PC's, Orwen's:

Beliefs
I am known to be a Hero and Leader of Men, but the truth is I am a coward. I fear exposure of my cowardice almost as much as pain or death.

The Mercenaries are my family. Their survival is paramount, overriding contract or honor. I want us out of the siege!

Princess Loristina is the only person who has seen some worth in me. I'm besotted. And determined to see her survive the upcoming ordeal.

Instincts:
Always know where the exits are
When challenged, act arrogant, try to bluster through
Never see his own worth


Traits
Arrogant
Respectful of higher rank
Gifted
Coward


And here is the pic for Orwen:

Nice to see your thoughts along with these up and on the internet, Storn.

I will post up my Beliefs when I have a moment.

I would have loved to have you there. It was a lot of fun playing off of Jim and Judd. And from Agon, I know that I can play off of you too. Judd delivered the most amazing speech I think I've ever heard at the gaming table... and I've spun a few myself.

Maybe he does that on a regular basis, but it blew my socks off. Kudos, Judd!

Thanks, man. It was fun talking to a bunch of scared, greedy and bloodthirsty mercs. That was a whole lotta fun, hence the Deeds point. I'm not really sure what I won with that roll but dammit, I meant it.

Well. The "you are thinking too small..." bit won me. And any Merc I could sway would be yours.

It was an awesome, awesome speech.
