Re: OOC Thread
OK, I cleaned up a little mess I had made with your character sheets, so now you should see the latest, most updated information.
Please let me know if I missed something else still.
Those of you who have unspent CP's are required to spend them before the end of the session, I'll give you a more precise deadline after you meet Eddie. Incidentally, this will be the last session to pay CP's: starting with the next one, you'll have to raise your skills the hard way.
As a compensation, CP's-for-partial-XP's will become DP's-for-partial-XP's, with the same rules.
The advantages of DP's have been restated in the XP thread, so you can consult them whenever you feel you need a refresher.
And now I have a question: as you have noticed, with the introduction of DP's and the free distribution of CP's, I am giving a slightly more cinematic, "heroic" tone to the game.
How high a level of "action/fantasy movie" feel would you feel comfortable with?
1) All the way to "Big Explosions + Superpowers + Miracles & Magic!"
PC's and NPC's will eventually have access to a large arsenal, either technological or metaphysical. The final goal is to save the world, possibly defeating a Great Old One in the process.
2) Up to "Minions of the Ancients vs. Chosen of the Lord"
The metaphysical level will increase somewhat, including some real adversaries (not just mindless zombies) and more metaphysics for both sides. The final goal is to help rebuild society.
3) "Heroes and Miracle Workers" (the current level)
Same power levels, no Holy Fire or equivalents. All adversaries are zombies, and the only goal is survival.
