Awesome character Zareous. I read it over the weekend and it really got my wheels turning. It actually spawned the weaving of the story in my brain so everything has come together in an amazing concrete way. I am super excited to pour a ton of energy into this game, but of course work is really crazy today.
I can promise you as soon as I get the top there will be some solid posts up that are going to pull this thing together and stuff moving. I also am going to flesh this out more into a traditional group so that we can keep that positive energy going. I plan on throwing up a recruitment post for one or two more players within the next 24-48 hours, after I get your posts up. Back to work for now as soon as I can I will get everything together!! |

So now that I have a better understanding of the system and we are merging together the games I went through the character sheets and noticed that we actually missed a big piece of the Chronicles of Darkness by not setting your Aspirations. Its something we can easily do now though and will help you earn Beats which are what drives Experience.
5 Beats = 1 Experience. We can get into that later if you don't understand it but for now I just need you to come up with some Aspirations. Aspirations: Chronicles of Darkness characters start with three Aspirations. Aspirations are goals that your character wishes to accomplish. They’re also statements about the sort of stories you want to tell about your character. Accomplishing an Aspiration is one of the main ways you can earn Beats to improve your character. You should aim for accomplishing about one Aspiration per session. Ideally, you should have a mix of Aspirations, some of which can be resolved in one session, and some which will take many sessions to accomplish. If you know that your character is going to start out hitchhiking, “Find a place to stay the night” is a perfectly reasonable Aspiration. If she recently had a fight with her girlfriend, “Reconcile with Jane” is a fine Aspiration. Sample Short-Term Aspirations
Sample Long-Term Aspirations
Each of you should pick out 2 short term aspirations and one long term aspiration. This will allow us to develop your characters as the story develops. I want to tell you all that I am totally loving all three of your characters and you have definitely inspired a large story arc I have planned. Now that I have a better understanding of the mechanics we are using I plan on getting everything squared away so that we can really get moving. |

Your mixing your systems...... I'll reference the creature types people are playing & other popular ones for reference.
There is OWoD (Vampire Masquerade with Camarilla/Sabbat, Werewolf Garu with tribes, Changeling the Dreaming with selie & unselie), NWoD (Vampire Requiem with clans & covenants, Geist, Promethean, Changeling the Lost with courts, Werewolf Forsaken, etc.), CWoD is essentially a renaming of NWoD and is coming out with 2.0 version similar to "revised OWoD" {The renaming with the revising leads to no end in confusion for casual players.} Chronicles of Darkness is essentially what most people are calling the NWoD 2.0 version & doesn't actually mesh great with 1.0, plus the only 2.0 books out are vamp & mage. (and their mechanics are really different.) 2.0 is what has the "beats" and such. If you want the iconic NWoD cross venue we should stick with the standard NWoD books. (God Machine is kinda 1.5 & also not a good mesh. Basically all the books from 2004-2014 is what you want. Well except the 2 new BNS LARP books for OWoD) PS, I LARP weekly & ST in the Mind's Eye Society, part of the Camarilla Global Fanclub for White Wolf Last edited by Zareaus; Dec 20th, 2016 at 05:23 PM. |

For my character, if it is still needed, the aspirations are : Short-Term Aspirations 1. Find the Tammara girl or avenge her 2. Learning better of his 'gift' Long-Term Aspirations Enlarging my business into a respectable position (or leading in the field) and show to his family that he also a champion, not a failure

So I did what any self respecting storyteller would do and I took to the interwebs to find an answer and wouldn't you know I got one! So as long as I don't take on a Hunter or a Changeling we should be in good shape. I will pick up the 2nd Ed Promethean as soon as the holiday is over and I am sure I am not getting it then. So for the next four days we should be good to roleplay before any major mechanics changes effect us. Does that seem to meet your concerns about going 2nd Ed with this game? I wouldn't expect you to pick up the Promethean book of course and should be able to guide you with my copy when needed. |

I will have to look over the Promethean rules for 2.0, I didn't think it was released yet.

So until I get a 2.0 to look over, what has changed for Promethean?
