[OOC] The Rusty Dragon

[Blackfyre]

We are sharing our stories, right? I mean, I really like that about this site.

[Sassafrass]

I have no problem with anyone sharing or not sharing. Well, I'd prefer we all share it, but if anyone has any deep dark secrets, that could work too. I know at least one of our NPCs will.

Speaking of things completely unrelated, which do you lot prefer as far as tokens go: This kind of Token, or this kind of Token? I will do either.

[Blackfyre]

I prefer the latter token.

[PopCultureBard]

March is good. It'll give me time to get Far Cry Primal out of my system.

Yeah, I planned to go public on my info. I trust everyone here to use only what they know.

I'll And that's wordplay!second the second token.

[Jarl11]

The one with tha face! The one without is creepy.

I'll share my story. It's set in jello at the moment. Nice almost firm, strawberry wine jello. Yum. We will mostly all be a little familiar with each other if we are intimately involved with the same NPCs. Who are all best friends or mothers.

Am going to hail from Magnimar and be close with Sandru (selected for my trait) and Koya but am familiar with Sandpoint since that's where they are from. Anyone else close with those two?

[Blackfyre]

I'll have my character and sheet finished by the end of the weekend.

My point of contact to Sandpoint is Shalelu and having grown up amongst the Shoanti I know her from one (or more) of her excursions away from Sandpoint.

I really should have bookmarked this thread, heh.

1) Relationship System: This seemed a bit awkward to me being that relationships are so organic. From what I've seen from Sass, he has the maturity, skill, and muster to make this work on his own.

2a) Caravan System: I like this a lot! I also think it will make it easier for Sass and it makes more sense with roll versus the Relationship System.

2b) Creative Obstacles: If Sass could put in a few creative obstacles I would love that. Perhaps a random roll so we never know when we're going to hit this situation (every 2d8 stops or something like that).

3) Honor System: I like this more. If you want to start his later that would fine. I think watching the characters grow and shape their selves from honor would make it interesting how the NPCs in a foreign nation view them.

4) Icons: I'll go with the others and pick the second one also.

5) Sheet: Will have the sheet ready this weekend then.

[Sassafrass]

All noted; looks like we're in favor of the caravan system. Who knew!? We'll worry about that when we get to it, but I'm looking forward to seeing how this works out.

In the meantime, character sheet template, as promised, to be posted in the Character thread:

Name: Duh
Class and Race:
Deity: Only if Applicable, could be merged with Class
Home Region: Where ya from? Any appropriate details therein are allowed.
Sandpoint Connection: Your NPC, and a short blurb on how you know them.
Description: A short physical and mental description, no more than 2 paragraphs (1 per thing). As short as you like it.
Background: A blurb about your character and their cool-ass background. No more than 2 paragraphs, with paragraph length undefined.

Feel free to include music or to customize what I've said, or ignore things. Remember: I want to start by Tuesday. Since my state is one of the ones voting on Tuesday, I need something to distract me from the depression

[Sassafrass]

Alright, I have now seen a write-up on every character, which is awesome, and I've seen a complete or near complete sheet from most of you, so we're about ready to start. At least, we can do the roleplaying start, we don't need no stats for that.

How's everybody feeling?

[PIG]

Ready!

[PopCultureBard]

Well, I've got this soreness in the archs of my feet but I'm now realizing you didn't mean that in a general 'how are you feeling' sense. I am ready to kick this off and get my first scythe kill. Because scythes are awesome. Also, I'm god awful at melee so I may be waiting a long time for that.

As an aside, I'm planning to go down the debuffing/controlling route. I'll have to sprinkle in some buff spells to keep the phantom viable but mainly I'll be trying to wreak havoc. That stepping on anyone's toes? I figured the spell lists on the rest of you folks were heavier on the buff/damage.

[Blackfyre]

Sounds good, Sass. Btw, why just two paragraphs for our background? I figured it'd be whatever background story we (probably) wrote in the private chats.


From my side that's fine, PCB. The DC's to save against my spells won't be very high, so I'm definitely going for buffing.

[PIG]

I'll be support. My character is not much for leading, exactly.

[Jarl11]

Know I still need to put up a post in the PC thread! Feel a little swamped on here lately but otherwise will be ready by tonight, I hope. Also had my first Roll20 game yesterday with a new random group. It was good! Turned out they knew each other and I was the only random. Well, there would have been two randoms but the other guy didn't show.

*Goes back and changes name from Havoc to something else* My spells are mostly buffing. Ok, they are ALL buffing.

[Sassafrass]

Honestly I was just trying to keep things short, but whatever you lot want to share for your characters are fine. Don't worry about writing anything new if you don't want to.

I'm traveling today so I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to post, unless I do it right now. But I had requirements elsewhere on site.

Let's see which ones get done?
