"The orcs kept coming over the hill fueled by bloodlust.
Our lines were being pushed back quickly and we knew that our strategic advantage was about
to be lost. Good men were going down left and right and morale was flagging.
Then I saw him. They called him the Gimlet and I always wondered why.
He was standing all alone on a low-slung hill surrounded by a good twenty or so orcs,
the bodies of about twenty more of the bastards were stacked two and three deep around him.
He was smiling. Craziest damn thing I ever saw. I hope I never see that man again.
He gives me the willies."
-Karvek - Tethyrian Mercenary Leader
Seth, known in legend and folk-tale as the Gimlet, is man driven by the love of battle.
He truly lives for the thrill of war and the whistle of the wind in his ears as his body
cavorts in a seemingly endless series of high-velocity combat maneuvers.
Although Seth is generally a good-natured fellow, get on his bad side and you'll quickly
discover why he's chaotic neutral. This guy tumbles into battle with effortless grace and
balance and proceeds to bitch-slap humans, orcs, dragons, the terrasque, George Bush, or whoever
else is foolish enough to get in his way.
If he was any more badass I would have named him Steven Segal. But he talks far too loudly
for that title...

FAQ:
Your LJ is pretty boring. When are you going to make a post that really matters?
What like a post detailing the number of bowel movements I took last week and the colors of my stool during that period? Or a post containing useless gossip about neighbors/coworkers/people that I could care less about? Or perhaps you mean one of those posts with so much drama that it should be declared its own printable soap-opera. Get a life you fucking loser. I'll post what I damn well please. And you can sit on a sharpened paint stick and take a nice long spin.
Why are you such a caustic asshole?
I honestly don't know. I get this alot. I guess it has something to do with ignorant fuckers
who waste my precious time belaboring futile points. Or questions. Like this one.
What the fuck are those damn maneuvers you keep mentioning?
They're martial maneuvers listed in the Tome of Battle - Book of Nine Swords.
If you weren't such a lazy fucker you would have already downloaded it by now instead
of reading this. In fact, go do that now.
HEY! You're cheating! Every optimizer's grandma knows enhancement bonuses don't stack!
Just what are you trying to pull mister?
Yes, I'm aware that enhancement bonuses do not stack and so therefore technically
his Amulet of Mighty Fists +5 should not stack with the Kensai's Signature Weapon ability.
Do I look like I give a shit? Furthermore, do I not look like the motherfucking DM to you?
Shut the hell up bitch! Do you want Seth to come over there and smack you in the fucking face?
No? Didn't think so...
Well what about your fucking spending limit then? I noticed you have Bracers of Relentless Might.
That's over 4,000,000gp right there. 32nd lvl characters only get 5.6 Mill. What's up with that?
For your information EVERYONE playing in this campaign received a 'bonus' item of roughly 4.5mill value. E.G. Most of my players selected a +15 equivalent bonus weapon for their character. I awarded them this because 32nd level characters can be assumed to have quested... ALOT. Enough to get some shit that's worth more than their average character market value price tag. Got any more questions smartass? I already warned you once.
Well I think your build sucks ass... Please don't smack me in the face...
Yeah motherfucker... That's what I thought...
