[Jan Van Quirm]

*tosses coin a couple of times then stops fighting it*

Gaspode ~
smelly
scruffy
flea-bitten
survivor
occasionally entertains hopes of meeting interesting young bitches and comparing licky ends (What? It's a doggy ailment... )
sore feet
putting words in beggars' mouths
Woof!

[Ponder Stibbons]

um... real, unles its a passerby or other littlementioned character, like greebos kittens

and please put additions to the story in inverted comas so we dont get mixed up

Actually, after we have 5 people, we'll just treat the rest of the characters as normal until someone else takes up the mantle.

Now we have: Ponder as the Bursur
and introducingJan as Gaspode

how cum the cofounders found it furst? is there sum magic trick u use.

Gaspode ~
smelly
scruffy
flea-bitten
survivor
occasionally entertains hopes of meeting interesting young bitches and comparing licky ends (What? It's a doggy ailment... Twisted Evil )
sore feet
putting words in beggars' mouths
Woof!

you do all that?! Gross!!
Maybe more of ure real traits

[Jan Van Quirm]

OK - less just wind back a bit 'cos I think we're getting confused here.

I'm guessing what Cheery is asking is whether we're to make up a Discworld character of our own - like the Librarian's girlfriend maybe

OR

play an original one - namely one of Terry's as featured in the books like Ponder Stibbins now the Bursar of UU

This is where I think the confusion's arising as you're meaning we're to play real life ourselves - in other words 'you' as in the real the TP forum member?

So in that case if I'm me the person typing this but playing me as Gaspode then I need to amend Gaspode's charactistics a little bit...

Like so?
smelly
scruffy
cynical
a survivor
occasionally entertains hopes of meeting interesting males of any age and comparing licky ends (What? It's a doggy ailment... )
sore feet
occasionally saying things that need saying

Woof?

[Cheery]

Okay I am... I am... I CAN'T DECIDE!

Now we hav: Ponder as the Bursur
Jan as Gaspode
Cheery as Cheery
