Hiya, all! Frankly, Oblate, I've no idea if Ludo is the name of a character from Labyrinth, because I never seen the movie. My actual name is Paul and I adopted Ludo from the Latin verb, "I game". Wow, is it just me or does that look pretentious? Okay, folks, you've been warned! I'm the intellectually pretentious one...

lol

S'all good man!

Just don't be some techy-psychic-alien thing and you'll be fine. : D

It *is* the name of the big ol' hairy rock-befriendin' puppet o' awesome from the Labyrinth. YAY!  Much cooler than "I Game". (grins)

So, uhm... Hi!  And welcome!  And what's so wrong with techy-psychic-alien-things?  *g* Long live techy-psychic-alien-things!  er, 'cept for the symbiots.  'cuz they's not cute.  They's bad.

Nonsense. Symbiots are just misunderstood.

Symbiots are ace. I love them.




They make a nice crunchy noise when you snap one.


>:D

Apologies for the slowdown in both groups' threads. There are a few things being worked out OOC with a couple of players which will have an impact on the current IC action. Ludo informed me that he'll be away until about a week from now and he isn't sure how often he'll be able to check in while he's gone.

In the meantime I'll try to work out something for the rest of you so you aren't just sitting dormant. Thanks for your continued patience everyone.

Guess now'd be the time to tell you I'll be gone from Thursday until Tuesday.  Won't be checking the internet where I'm going.  (Dun dun dunn.)

Hey gang. I wanted to check in with you to see if we can get things moving a bit. Tileira and E_V_I_L, I haven't seen any activity or heard from you guys in quite a while. Are you still with us? Jess, I'm also waiting on your post. Tycho and Ludo, thanks for your continued patience.

Sounds like we've sort of lost all momentum here.  Too bad, but that's the way of things.  I think I'll drop the game from my sticky list at this point.  Best of luck with other stuff, everyone!

Hello all. I've just been let into the game. I've never played an FS game before, but I happen to have a couple of books. What I play depends on what everyone else has, although I'm leaning towards playing an Ukari or an Obun. I'm quite happy to play up stereotypes, so expect to see either lots of violence or quiet introspection.

Hey, welcome to the game!  I don't think anybody playing is an old vet at the game, so I wouldn't worry about being new to it.

Hiya, Snowguard!

Private First Class Harper speaks the truth. Rank aside, I think we're all relatively new to FS. Play whatever you think you'll most be interested in, yet fits with the ongoing game. Welcome!

Well, that's good to know. I guess it depends on what the rest of you see yourselves needing more - calm, rational insight or a kraxi-wielding bastard? I note that Harper is a Scout and Juandaastas is heroic noble, possinly with some Talents.

Well, I don't think I have a preference. We haven't gotten so far into things with the current crew to have actually interacted with each other let alone teamed up as a party. Maybe the Gamemaster will have some suggestion, but I think you ought to just go with whatever you think you'll have the most fun portraying.

Ludo's right - play something you really enjoy, first and foremost. Worry about compatability with other characters later. I can see both an Obun and an Ukar fitting in nicely.

I've decided to go with Gammak, an Ukari with a chip on his shoulder. He is nominally loyal to al-Malik, but is much more focused on his own goals. He'd wear leather armor, have a shot/heavy pistol, but have a severe preference for kraxi (Ukari knife-fencing). Actually, between that and Ukari martial arts, he's lethal at hand-to-hand, maybe even a Master, although he wouldn't claim such a title. Previous falling-outs with his Monastery led him to wander in search of his own penance, and aiding al-Malik seemed as good a way as any.

Thoughts?

Ludovicus stands manifesting light and garrisoning Stigmata. Or something.

Brother Fidelis will hopefully be manning the ramparts in the not too distant future.  I just need to work out the kinks in his background.

Hi *waves from somewhere far far over the hill*
*cough* >>

Howdy all.  Not sure if I can fit another game on my plate just now, but I'll keep an eye on things here, and if things are trucking along, I'll try to work out a way to get back into this one again.

Hi, I’m the newbie, still working on the character…but will be ready to take up arms soon…

Kefln and YourSpleen, still waiting on both of you. Let's get your characters finished and ready for action.

Please welcome our newest player, Tvonah, to the game.

Howdy, Tvonah!

I have a 1996 copy of Fading Suns. I will be busy reading posts for a while and hope to locate a second edition soon.
