Although I'm too stubborn to search the archives (I don't wish to provide personal info to yahoo, I signed up when this was egroups), <http://www.pensee.com/dunham/glorantha/dawnAge/characters.html> has a bunch of playtest characters. Nallindia has the most detail.

I think I posted the very strange 100 words of Barz (a Grazer shaman), and I think I did a normal Grazer warrior.

My latest character:

Karos is a cheerful sword sage, seeking Pavis's lost glory in the Dragon Empire. While excavating in the Big Rubble, he found Courageous Claw, and a glowing flower talisman. Karos learned to ride a zebra from the Pavis Survivors. Although able to out-drink any other apprentice or study all night, he's an indifferent student. A flashy dresser, Karos always wears a hat. He is talented at drawing people. His father Brantyr was Dorasor's grandson; Karos grew up in Rich Hill. He blames the Lunars for Brantyr's death, and learned to fight from Garrath Sharpsword. Karos is often found with Esrania, a Sister of Mercy.
