I'll join!
Player Name: Snarky
Character Name: Ken
Char Age: 26
Char appearance: An unshaven man in his mid 20's, ironically wears a firefighter helmet and hazard suit to protect him from his own pyromania.
Equipment: Small knife, Rucksack (contains a large amount of "useless" junk), Flamethrower (salvaged), copious quantities of kerosene stolen from gas stations, lighter, cigarettes.
Backstory: A coward and a thief, Ken managed to survive the worst of the end of the world by hiding in a basement. When it all seemed to calm down, everyone was dead. Or so he thought, there were monsters lurking everywhere. Heading to the gas station, he fashioned a home made flamethrower to deal with the monsters. Unfortunately the end of the world had obscured his judgement, convinced that another group of survivors holed up in an abandoned supermarket was a group of Reapers in disguise, he torched the entire place before looting it for supplies. His own personal motto is "If in doubt, kill it with fire."
Other info: The end of the world has taken it's toll on him, Ken is a paranoid pyromaniac who is also a kleptomaniac. He'll try to take anything that's not bolted to the ground, and burning anything that he can't carry with him.

There. Check the info post on the first page. I can make your stats for you, if you want. Also, I like your guy. He's the first character we've got who's somewhat evil and paranoid.

DEAR SHOE,
THAT'S RIGHT YOU ARE A SHOE. THERE'S NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT NOT BEING A SHOE BECAUSE IN MY MIND YOU ARE ONE AND THAT IS MOST UNFORTUNATE.
AS LONG AS I HAVE YOU CONCEPTUALIZED AS A SHOE IN MY IMAGINATION YOU SHALL REMAIN AS SUCH.
THIS MAKES ME WONDER WHETHER ALL PEOPLES AND OBJECTS CAN BE CONCEPTUALIZED AS SHOES AND THUS BECOME SUCH, GRANTING ME ABSOLUTE POWER OVER THEM. DO YOU HAVE A CLEVER ARGUMENT? NO YOU DON'T, YOU"RE A SHOE. SHOES CAN'T HAVE CLEVER ARGUMENTS.
I FEEL LIKE THE WEIGHT OF THE WORLD HAS BEEN LIFTED OFF MY SHOULDERS NOW THAT EVERYTHING IS UNDER MY CONTROL, NOW THAT YOU ARE ALL SHOES. I NO LONGER HAVE TO ANSWER TO MY REGRETS AND PAST MISTAKES BECAUSE THEY ARE SIMPLY SHOES.

Meep. Just so y'all know, Space Hulk has its event underway! It's not that great of an addition to the writing in terms of size, but it's sure as hell very good I reckon. One part tomorrow I think and Warork and Scrazz should be freed up, then the GK/demon event part should be finished on Sunday. After that, event is complete!

Frankly, with the way I created the stats, they're based on REAL LIFE.
For example, the strongest man in the world who goes around dragging cars might be S6 or even S7. Naturally, my character who is very big and strong is S5, but he isn't on steroid overdoses or trying to drag cars around, so that's where he stays at.
S3 represents a normal person who doesn't particularly show any abnormal strength traits or do much heavy lifting/working out or is young but strong.
Now as another example, BS4 represents someone experienced or with extended military training, and BS5+ is someone who is very experienced and specialised in this type of combat. BS2 or 1 represents someone who can barely fire an M9. BS3 is for someone with basic knowledge and experience with firearms.
Hope that helps clear it up a bit.
