Thanks, It gets better too. 13 pages in he's attempted suicide was forcibly brought back from the dead is now stuck as a pawn in one of the devil's many games.

lol I may start running some younger and older versions of my crazy little thief across various parts of shadowdragonbreath: [link] he's been revised slightly he's shorter just under 5 ft hi height Ashley and I were discussing his age vrs behavior vrs personal time line he can't really be any younger than 13 and is no older than 16.

oh and he has a normal name now too, he was born Tom last name was possibly Thatcher.

i take it inspiration is coming easier with Fifer than Kiearia

he's kinda unbelievly immature otherwise. he's had a rough life before meeting aura. lol. to make this work i revised his history. logic is simple even providing that it is a high fantasy counter earth where technologically speaking swords are giving way to guns in duels and on the battle field.chances are most people don't have great expectancy50-60 being venerable. by 25 a woman is considered an old mid. people are still suspicious of disease. it's still seen by many as punishments from heaven.

but hes grown older with no love of authority and not much direction due to illness wiping them out."tom" might as well be dead, born in the quarantine zone or entering there with his family at no older than the ages of three have significantly shaped his outlook those who knew him as tom are probably all dead due to the accidents disease and the effects a thoroughly corrupt society tends to have on the poor and disadvantaged.

lool gives backing to his sort of "fuck the world" attitude

Hahah cool!! I think I have a pretty good idea of what to make him look like. Small question though, does he wear a hat??? Or just throws his hair in a ponytail?

yep ... think of the classic immageriy of a highwayman/highway bandit .

oh i cant remember if i said this anywhere other than in the story the spanner (it's used to wind the firing mechanism on the wheellock pistols) he wears it hanging from a metal loop on a chain around his right wrist so it's quite literally always on hand speeding up process of reloading arming and cocking the gun. minor detail but it came up in story

Shayzira In reply to queenoftheshadows [2011-08-09 03:44:43 +0000 UTC]

I'm sorry, but I'm none too familiar with what a spanner looks like or how it is used on the gun. (I wish I knew alot more about firearms than I do!!) Could you explain or maybe send a picture of one??

above are links to samples that were made during the eras these guns were mosr frequently made . their function is to wind up the spring inside the gun that turns a toothed wheel against a piece of pyrite, generating the spark that ignites the gun powder.

thus you cant actually fire the gun without it

Derp if your intrested in how they function

Wikipedia gives the basics of parts and functions

short video on you tube featuring a functioning wheel lock + showing the use of the spanner, loading, priming and firing, and explaining why it was an improvement over preexisting firearms.

XD yes and no.compared to predecessors the wheelock was vastly improved it has some minor manner of safety and mechanized firing spanner requirement or not. such as it could be used in the rain XD. technology are oftenlike that though.
