I Am A: Chaotic Neutral Human Sorcerer (4th Level)

Ability Scores:

Strength-12

Dexterity-16

Constitution-14

Intelligence-17

Wisdom-16

Charisma-15

Alignment:
Chaotic Neutral A chaotic neutral character follows his whims. He is an individualist first and last. He values his own liberty but doesn't strive to protect others' freedom. He avoids authority, resents restrictions, and challenges traditions. A chaotic neutral character does not intentionally disrupt organizations as part of a campaign of anarchy. To do so, he would have to be motivated either by good (and a desire to liberate others) or evil (and a desire to make those different from himself suffer). A chaotic neutral character may be unpredictable, but his behavior is not totally random. He is not as likely to jump off a bridge as to cross it. Chaotic neutral is the best alignment you can be because it represents true freedom from both society's restrictions and a do-gooder's zeal. However, chaotic neutral can be a dangerous alignment because it seeks to eliminate all authority, harmony, and order in society.

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.

Class:
Sorcerers are arcane spellcasters who manipulate magic energy with imagination and talent rather than studious discipline. They have no books, no mentors, no theories just raw power that they direct at will. Sorcerers know fewer spells than wizards do and acquire them more slowly, but they can cast individual spells more often and have no need to prepare their incantations ahead of time. Also unlike wizards, sorcerers cannot specialize in a school of magic. Since sorcerers gain their powers without undergoing the years of rigorous study that wizards go through, they have more time to learn fighting skills and are proficient with simple weapons. Charisma is very important for sorcerers; the higher their value in this ability, the higher the spell level they can cast.

Maybe here in LJ...but than again, nobody uses LJ, so it doesn't do much good.

sigh. goddamnit.

i forget how to typz the blogz.

2007-06-08T20:52:17Z

i don't even know how to do this anymore.

I'm moving to Riverwest, across the street from Riverhorse.

I'm going back to school full-time, and just need the government to give me more money.

Thats about it. I'm digging UFC, playing video games, still driving for Shuttle, although not enough, and have a hot new phone.

This is why i don't blog.

Hokay, so here is the earth.

and finding a place to rent in Milwaukee is sucking lately.

Me and my roommate just got completely screwed out of one of the nicest upper 2 bedroom apartments i've ever seen in Bay View. So we are now bitter and irate at the world. And looking for help, since nobody knows how to call us back. We are looking for a (upper or lower) house, with 2 bedrooms, pet friendly (3 cats, soon to be 1 puppy...and a hamster and guinea pig, but they don't really count) preferably remodeled apartment in Riverwest or Bay View. We need a larger kitchen with cabinets, and things (appliances, windows, fixtures) less then 20 years old would be nice. We are looking to spend around $850 after utilities.

Apparently there are thousands of these apartments in Milwaukee, according to Craigslist and driving around, but nobody can pick up a damn phone. Perhaps you have a half of a house that is not rented? We are big fans of BBQ's, drinking beer, playing the Wii (which we have), trying cocktails, and playing with animals, and watching billions of movies on our soon to be HDTV and home theatre...so i'm done pimping us now.

So if you have any In's, please "holla back" as the youngin's say these days at mattson5@uwm.edu.

and please don't sign me up for porn. if you think thats funny. if it weren't my email, i wouldn't do it, but i would still think it's funny.

where have i been

2007-02-27T00:46:22Z

playing Wii, no doubt.

If you do, hook me up with your friend code and swap Miis!

This is from The Times, in London. Read, and if you are in Amurica, go fucking vote.

A vote to send tremors around the world
Bernard-Henri Lévy

America’s midterm elections have enormous global implications for the War on Terror and climate change
THE PARADOX of American democracy and especially of these midterm elections: both are local, even provincial. They rest on the homosexual escapades of Congressman Mark Foley of Florida; on Virginia Senator George Allen’s use of “macaca”, an obscure racial epithet, to refer to a volunteer working for his opponent; on the question of gay marriage in South Dakota, South Carolina and Wisconsin. The Republican majority in the Senate will be lost or maintained according, in part, to how credible the Bush Administration’s promises seem in New Jersey, Missouri, Tennessee and Virginia.

In short, everything will be decided according to local squabbles. Yet these are the only elections of truly global importance in the world. This is the only electoral battle that we know of on which, in a strict sense, the fate of the planet hangs.

Why? If there are “swing states” in today’s America, there are also “swing issues”: there are, if one prefers, questions of colossal importance on which nothing less than war, peace or the survival of he world depends. And on these, US opinion — and therefore the Administration itself — hesitates, oscillates, and can, at any moment, tilt in one direction or the other according to the ratios in the ballot box.

If, for example, the Democrats carry the House, it’s likely that they will launch a flurry of investigations, inquiries and proposals regarding the many controversial steps that the Bush Administration has taken over the past six years, drawing the public’s attention again to issues such as the legality of “extraordinary renditions” and corruption among American officials in Iraq and Afghanistan. Then, I believe, the President will suddenly discover that the notion of “enemy combatants” is unconstitutional and will close the prison camp in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. What a victory for democracy! What a defeat, in consequence, for the propagandists of hate and terror!

The war in Iraq will not stop magically. However, a Bush Administration faced with a Republican minority in Congress would be obliged to foster alliances and at times take into account dissenting opinions, particularly the ones within the party. Voices will emerge asking to engage in the debate that has been missing for four years about the enormous strategic error that was the intervention in Baghdad. As tongues are loosened, imaginations freed and ideological deadlocks finally begin to yield, the outlines of solutions, and even exit scenarios, will surface.

Conversely, a Democratic majority in the Senate and the House, even if it changes nothing about the depth of anti-American feeling in Europe, will deprive governments on the Continent of their providential alibi for inaction and their spirit of appeasement: the scarecrow of Bush’s hubris. They will be obliged — or it will contribute to their obligation — to take a more active part in the global battle against Islamofascism that is the challenge of our times.

One knows that in France, for example, the temptation exists to suspend or reduce co-operation on the ground with the forces fighting terrorism — a collaboration that, since the days after September 11, has gone on continuously. However, a stinging defeat of the Bush team at the polls would not easily justify such a decision across the Atlantic. The French President, faced by an American government that represents a wider spectrum of opinion, would be hard put to explain the withdrawal of French commandos from Afghanistan. In other words, a White House forced to engage in — as the Democrats call for — a form of multilateralism would put Europe’s back against the wall more forcefully than its previous boasts, calls for crusades or born-again Christian sermons about the End Times.

A victory of pro-choice partisans in South Dakota or adversaries of unregulated gun sales in Ohio will oblige the White House — without losing too much face or explicitly agreeing with the arguments of the former future president, Al Gore — to reconsider its irresponsible positions over the Kyoto Protocol and the US contribution to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. Oil lobby or no, President Bush will not be able to feign to be unaware that Americans also have a stake in the battle for the survival of the planet on which we all depend.

In short: small causes, grand effects.Petty battles, colossal butterfly effect.

We will know, now, very soon. The two victories of the “moral values” maniacs in 2000 and 2004 were never a movement but a battle of the rearguard. The sustained direction of the past 40 years of American history — toward the victories of civil rights, the democratisation of the South, the loosening of moral strictures — demonstrates that the Bush phenomenon is above all a last stand, the ultimate and terrible outburst of a beast that knows it is wounded and is gambling it all. The reasons to hope largely overtake the grounds for worry.

You can't spell REVOLuTion without...

2006-10-31T01:05:41Z

This is going to be a long, angry, stream of conscious post that has been on my mind for years, but more focused on for a few days.

That is the ingenius of the American Government, and why I love it, and why I hate it.

250 years ago, the founding fathers had two great ideas in mind for the new world.

1) No one branch (Legislative, Judicial, Executive) can control the other two. That has eroded in time because at the time it was never intended to have a two party system. But alas, there came a point in time that it was the Democrats and the Republicans, and in that time, one party was able to control the Executive, and Legislative branches, and then appointed the Judicial branch, thus giving at this point in time a completly Republican government.

2) The government will not be above the people, and the people will not be above the government. This also when wrong with the capitalist surge in worldwide economics. "He who has the gold makes the rules" became law in Economics, which then became law in the Socio-Economic circle. Because the poor have less then the rich, they feel they are less important, which is a truth that cannot be denied. Because government and politics is no long about ideals, or the common man representing the common man, but of the man who has the most money that the most people kinda believe in, The political spectrum has become beyond the scope of the common man.

The genius in the second point, is that the government has set up so many different circles; cities, counties, districts, states, and then federal, and all of those are split up into boards, and commissions, and committes, and delegations. There are so many circuits in government that a revolt against the system is impossible. In Mexico and France, just this week riot police have been sent to supress protesting and revolting citizens. Over what? In Mexico it's over school teachers who were refused a pay raise. France is still dealing with the widespread riots of the poor immigrants from a year ago.

Can you even comprehend what it would take to take control of a even semi-major American city? Take the 45 through 50th most populated cities in the US in an estimated population; Arlington, Tx. Pop. 363,000; Colorado Springs, Co. Pop. 370,000; Minneapolis, MN. Pop. 373,000; Honolulu, HI. Pop. 377,000; Tulsa, OK. Pop. 382,500.
What about a city of a million people? Dallas, Tx. Pop. 1,213,000; San Diego, CA. Pop. 1,256,000; San Antonio, Tx. Pop. 1,257,000.
What about the Big Three? New York, NY. Pop. 8,143,000; Los Angeles, CA. Pop. 3,845,000; Chicago, IL. Pop. 2,843,000.

How many people would it take to literally take by force an American city? An American state? What would you need to do? Who would lead? Who would follow? Can you look at yourself in a mirror and tell yourself that you believe it's necessary, and would you do it? Maybe most importantly, what would you be called? A Domestic Terrorist? A Martyr? A Hero? A Patriot? Are they different? Or are they all the same?

250 years ago a people fought against a tyranny that abused it's citizens. It forced taxes for wars, the money it did take didn't go to help the people, it helped the government. 250 years ago people cared enough to fight back for a better world that they believed in.

For years and years the government, both sides, has relied on the position that "your vote can make a difference" In 2000 the popular vote did not make a difference, in 2004, the numerous "mystery" polling problems followed up with destroyed, and therefore unable to be recounted ballots. In 2005, A major US City, New Orleans, LA. Pop. 455,000. Was literally wiped off the map by a hurricane. One year later, Biloxi, MS, is half populated with FEMA trailers, which citizens must either buy by Febuary 1st, 2007. Or be homeless, while the state government has a billion dollars it still hasn't dispensed to citizens in dire need of financial assistance. Streets are still covered in debris, whole neighborhoods still full of the skeletons of homes that have never been, or have yet to be repaired.

There is a time that you have to accept that you can do more to change the city, county, district, state, country, or world, then with a single vote every two years.

Who is going to change the world? And how are we going to do it?

1776 wasn't the American Revolution, is was the British Revolution. The British revolted against the British government. American was simply a child of the revolution. When the Spainards revolted it was called the Spanish Revolution, the French, the French Revolution, the Soviets, the Soviet Revolution. Now is the time for the American Revolution, I just don't know where it where it will happen.

inspirations and revelations

2006-10-01T06:32:23Z

and i can't stay serious for more than a minute.

Life has been...transistional lately.

to say the least.

I fit in Gap jeans, which are super comfy, and i'm losing weight, and doing all i can to improve my outlook on life.

But, as per the usual, bad things happen to me, like fucksticks breaking into my car.

But at least my shoulder feels better (it was beccas fault.)

ANYWAYS, point of the story is this, i've decided that as liberal a person as i am, i'm far too conservative with myself, therefor i am broadening my horizons by doing crazy things like smoking and getting tatoos. I've narrowed it down to two designs, and i may just get both, so people, tell me what you think, and where you think it would fit.

and/or...

Wrestling...real?

2006-09-26T16:35:10Z

Usually i'm one of the guys who says that wrestling doesn't influence peoples acts of idiocy.

That was until now...go to cnn.com, maybe cnnsi.com, and look for the link, probably already on youtube, of the race car driver dropkicking another driver who bumped him THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD! 60 foot running start, running dropkick through the windshield into a guy who is strapped in.

Now that, as they say in ECW, is hardcore.

I have the itch to play games that involve swinging a lightsaber. perhaps of the Lego variety.

5 years later

2006-09-11T07:32:26Z

and we still haven't gotten anywhere.

Anyways, thats not what i am posting about. Three things for you people to dwell on, if you do that sort of thing.

1) Me and rebecca have for the time being, seperated. broken up. whatever you want to call it. right now i am in the most fucked up situation in my life, it sucks, i hate it, i don't know what to do, and i'm having frequent nervous breakdowns.

2) I applied to go back to UWM in the Spring, we'll see how that works out.

3) Milwaukee made the national news again. Thats what happens when twenty people from ages 14-40 rape an 11 year old on the north side. http://www.jsonline.com/story/index.aspx?id=494435

Check out that fucked up shit. I fucking hate those people. Here's an excerpt that didn't surprise me in the least.

"Gurley said he got home from his job as a butcher at about 9 p.m. Sept. 4, used some cocaine, put the rest of his chicken dinner in the refrigerator and began drinking Milwaukee's Best beer."

Thats right, coke, chicken, and beast. fucking niggers.

The worst part about it is that we deliver to the neighborhood these assholes live in, and i hate that too. fuck all these people.

I'm fucking miserable and hate the world, i'm going to bed.

one vodka, two vodka, three vodka, floor.

2006-08-16T18:37:50Z

10 beers, close to a dozen shots of vodka...christ, thats a soda can of vodka.

0 glasses of water.

Life lesson learned, thank you very much.

the worst person in the world.

2006-08-15T06:50:03Z

no, it's not www.whitehouse.gov

But as i was trolling toothpastefordinner as always, i think i came across what might be the worst and most revolting person i've ever read of.

and sorry Miranda, but she's Canadian.

"Only a marriage between one man and one woman shall be valid or recognized as a marriage in this state. A legal status identical or substantially similar to that of marriage for unmarried individuals shall not be valid or recognized in this state."

First sentence, obvious.

Second sentence... Do you believe that the second sentence will have an effect on such status' as civil unions, or legal arragements such as property transfer and power of attorney?

If you feel that it does, would you vote for or against this amendment?

another day, more republican bullshit.

2006-07-29T00:48:37Z

over the last, i don't know....decade the democrats have tried to increase the minimum wage to cover inflation, and increased cost of living. Over the last decade congress has voted multiple times to give themselves raises to cover inflation and cost of living. $35,000 to be exact. Minimum wage workers? Still making $5.15 an hour. Finally, the democrats in the congress said, "Thats enough, until we raise minimum wage, we will fillibuster and vote down every cost of living increase put before congress"

Yesterday's news: "GOP pushes minimum wage increase"

Of course, 50 rank-and-file republicans talked to house leaders and probably cried that they won't get another way until the communists have their way.

But, while for the last decade these "cost of living" increases for congree haven't involved any attacted bills, the only way the republican controlled congress will let this minimum wage increase through is with tax cuts for the rich of course.

"It would also exempt $5 million of an individual's estate, and $10 million of a couple's, from estate taxes by 2015. Estates worth up to $25 million would be taxed at capital gains rates, currently 15 percent and scheduled to rise to 20 percent. Tax rates on the remainder of larger estates would fall to 30 percent by 2015.

Besides the 10-year, $268 billion cut to the estate tax, the measure contains $38 billion in other tax cuts that enjoy widespread backing, such as the research-and-development tax credit."

News flash: i fucking hate republican lawmakers.

I'm so frustrated at so much shit right now, that i literally want to shoot a congressman.

seriously. CIA, Homeland Security, go fuck yourselves.

a day in the life i guess.

2006-07-28T02:42:04Z

A pop up just told me that shemales have more fun....

....

....

i cannot comment on that.

Secondly, in the news Exxon Oil came out with their earnings for the second quarter....only 10 billion fucking dollars in profit. Oh yeah big oil, productions costs are soooo high, and oil is in such demand...i fucking hate oil. How can an oil company post 10 billion in profit, and there isn't a single litigation pending about price gouging?

Teritarly...?, there have been very few things that have actually compltely numbed my senses, and today i was (un)fortunate to have found one. On YouTube they have a audio clip about 5 minutes long of a guy on the 105th floor of the north tower on 9/11 talking to the 911 operator. The line cuts out when the tower collapses. It was very intense to listen to, to say the least, and i know a number of you are pretty squirmy about that sort of thing, but as someone always interested in the human psyche, it was both chilling, and not entertaining, not by any means...but it was totally real. It wasn't voiced over with a news reporter, or had anything special to it, it was just the man, and the operator. I dunno, i found it very interesting.

Back to playing LOTR: The Battle for Middle Earth, because it's fun.

Hopefully within the next week i will post some pictures of the new place, as well as our kick ass view, and information on what we hope to be a house warming party.
