Unfortunately, I haven't got one close to hand at the moment, or the ease of holding it up to the screen in case someone calls "Citation needed".

Huh, well, I'd like some help setting that up, cause I didn't mean him to be that big. >_>
What would be a normal weight for a 5'5" male built like an action movie star? I.E. Tony Stark ((Iron Man)Can't remember his real name)

For 5'5", I'd go for 155lb-165lb. That puts him in the slim side of overweight, which would account for muscle build (muscular people with a normal bmi tend to look more wiry and athletic than body-builder-style action movie stars).

Edit: The other option would be to make him taller. 5'5" is in the 6.7 percentile, meaning only 6.7% of the (current American) population are shorter than him. He's quite short, which makes for an interesting character quirk (and a slight advantage brawling) If he was 5'10" and 188lb, he'd be about action movie range.

I meant for him to be a little short, so I think I'll reduce his weight a bit. Also, Chaos, what the HELL is your character saying, I have no idea xD



Edit: I fixed the info a bit

Sorry if I sounded mean, but it feels like there's a few words missing... Either that or it is worded weirdly.

shure would be the slurred version of sure because you are doing a double U sound. as for my character apparently 220 would be overweight. but since he is mostly muscle anyways, he would be muscular but not a bodybuilder. which is what i am going for.

Much better indeed, also, Vodka, I'm not much of a drinker, actually I don't even like alcohol so I wouldn't know how to describe the Bourbon. I went for the quick and gulped due to that. xD

Edit: I shoulda just made my character not drink too! Then he'd be crazy AND sober LOL

No worries, to each his/her own. :)

From a RP point of view it worked nicely however, it makes sense that group of rag tag mercenaries most of which are not the most cultured people would simply down a Whisky, even if was an extremely expensive one.

No problem. I think we're largely still waiting for a few stragglers to arrive anyways, so we're just killing time. :)

Not to be a super Nazi, ChaosGrinder, but I'm having trouble understanding you again. >_>
My main language isn't English so I tend to derp around when it isn't well written. *facepalm*
