Noooooooooo!

My coffee pot bit the dust this morning!

pierceheart got up early, put grounds and a filter in the coffee maker, filled the reservoir with water, and turned it on. When I went out to the kitchen, it wasn't brewing. The water wasn't even hot. Crap. I've had that thing since Spring 2002, and I have no idea how long my grandma had it before that. Still, I didn't expect it to crap out on me when it's been working just fine all along. I wish it could have waited until I moved in with pierceheart, when we only would have NEEDED one coffee maker. Meh.

Drinking the work coffee now. It doesn't suck, but it's not as good as mine.

All the cool kids are doing it.

I Am A: True Neutral Human Bard/Wizard (2nd/2nd Level)


Ability Scores:

Strength-13

Dexterity-12

Constitution-12

Intelligence-15

Wisdom-14

Charisma-13


Alignment:
True Neutral A true neutral character does what seems to be a good idea. He doesn't feel strongly one way or the other when it comes to good vs. evil or law vs. chaos. Most true neutral characters exhibit a lack of conviction or bias rather than a commitment to neutrality. Such a character thinks of good as better than evil after all, he would rather have good neighbors and rulers than evil ones. Still, he's not personally committed to upholding good in any abstract or universal way. Some true neutral characters, on the other hand, commit themselves philosophically to neutrality. They see good, evil, law, and chaos as prejudices and dangerous extremes. They advocate the middle way of neutrality as the best, most balanced road in the long run. True neutral is the best alignment you can be because it means you act naturally, without prejudice or compulsion. However, true neutral can be a dangerous alignment because it represents apathy, indifference, and a lack of conviction.


Race:
Humans are the most adaptable of the common races. Short generations and a penchant for migration and conquest have made them physically diverse as well. Humans are often unorthodox in their dress, sporting unusual hairstyles, fanciful clothes, tattoos, and the like.


Primary Class:
Bards often serve as negotiators, messengers, scouts, and spies. They love to accompany heroes (and villains) to witness heroic (or villainous) deeds firsthand, since a bard who can tell a story from personal experience earns renown among his fellows. A bard casts arcane spells without any advance preparation, much like a sorcerer. Bards also share some specialized skills with rogues, and their knowledge of item lore is nearly unmatched. A high Charisma score allows a bard to cast high-level spells.


Secondary Class:
Wizards are arcane spellcasters who depend on intensive study to create their magic. To wizards, magic is not a talent but a difficult, rewarding art. When they are prepared for battle, wizards can use their spells to devastating effect. When caught by surprise, they are vulnerable. The wizard's strength is her spells, everything else is secondary. She learns new spells as she experiments and grows in experience, and she can also learn them from other wizards. In addition, over time a wizard learns to manipulate her spells so they go farther, work better, or are improved in some other way. A wizard can call a familiar- a small, magical, animal companion that serves her. With a high Intelligence, wizards are capable of casting very high levels of spells.

Music

I realized I never used the Barnes & Noble gift card my cousin gave me for my last birthday, so I just went on their website and ordered the new Neubauten album and an old Tom Waits album that I only have on cassette right now. YAY! MUSIC! :D
