Gix'vaeri

This is the character I'm playing in our gaming group's first 4th Edition game. Dan's running us through The Keep on the Shadowfell and it's a blast so far. I usually DM so it's nice to be able to focus on role-playing. I was trying to imagine what it would be like to have a dragon-like head and not much in the way of lips, and came up with a pretty good voice for Gix. I end up sounding like a cross between Sean Connerey and Admiral Akbar, and it's great fun. He's 3rd level now but here he is as he started.
