Hockenberry sounds like a Canadian Huckleberry Finn. I love it.

So Water Aspect, I'm assuming? Sounds good, great to have younger characters along too.

Ice based at least, which could go Air or Water but probably leans towards water in LotW.

What would Michael name the Ark?

Soul Plane, clearly.

Michael lacks an obvious sense of humor or irony. Last Refuge.

Polite reminder that you guys have a say in the setting and I actually do want to accommodate you, so feel free to fire ideas or suggestions at me.

Polite reminder that if you want I'll craft up shit too... seeing as I'm the GM and all *shifty eyes*

I'll try to catch up and contribute on Tuesday. New job changed my schedule three or four times in the last week. Think it finally settled down, and two of the projects that were eating into my time are finally put to bed as well.

Very cool. Congrats on tackling those giants, and yeek, inconsistent schedules are the worst thing besides no schedule.

Hey everyone, noticed a bit of a problem with capital ships-  they have no skills!  Normally capital ships don't really need them, but when you're dealing with a disrupt...

That is, until I just said 'screw it'- they have 0 skills, pretty much.  However, whenever they make a Disrupt/Disorient (or defend with a Disrupt/Disorient) they're making it at a +5 bonus/rank as their base 'skill' level.  So a Rank 5 has a +0, but a Rank 4 has +5.

Yes, this means a Buchenwald-class has a base bonus to Disrupts = +25.

Sounds "good" to me!

Sorry I've been in hibernation. Will post more writing soon. Was just predictably burnt out.

How far along are everyone's characters, btw?

Lucifer's pretty much done, Lyla I know is roughly 50% done. What about the rest of ya?

Ideally I'd like to get cracking on this sucker sometime soon.  For those of you who aren't done, please let me know if there's anything you need from me (loresheet, help, etc.).

All for getting started soon so we don't lose momentum!

Lots of Loresheets that I still need to finish. I'm kind of hoping that this weeks Wulin game gets me back into the Wuxia mindset. Once those are done... I can build Jess.

Are all of those Loresheets critical to building Jess, though? I don't think it'd be a problem to keep building those as the game goes on, with priority on things that are relevant to stuff that's going on right now. I doubt Jess is entangled with ALL the different parts and factions in the ship so you should be able to build her without having everything ready.

Valid point. Did the normal Destiny side of things. Extremely rough draft, but I can optimize it once I figure what I'm saving with Entanglement. Of course, Entanglement will be harder, as none of the sheets I've written up directly apply to her, mechanically.

I want to start the Raid on the Buchenwald next week Saturday.  Don't have to get everything all squared away with your characters (especially secret arts), but having a character at least decently fleshed out is a must.

Understood.

Could we get a character introduction/info topic somewhere?

I think it'd be nice to see descriptions about all chars, also pics, and what do they do around the ship, and what they are known about. Also we could then plan how our chars know each other, since it's not the first time they are doing things together.

Or am I the only one who wants to know about things like these? XD

Seconding a character introduction / contacting discussion! Maybe as a separate "Who's who" thread? Could also add important NPCs there as the game goes on.

Good idea.

There, added a brief intro of Lucy to the Who's Who thread. If anyone's interested in fleshing out the relationship between him and your character, let me know!

Added mine. I was... less brief, so I linked her lifebackstory in a pastebin.

Same deal as the post above. If anyone wants to try and figure out how these character know/interact with each other, I'm game.
