We redshirts do what we can.  There is a myth that a Thulandish redshirt survives better than the others...

GM must be having a bad day...  5 vs 3 is pretty unfair odds....

Oh well, if I played an Assassin, that would annoy everybody but he'd survive better.  We meatshields have a responsibility to tank it in whilst other deploy their artillery...

Assassins come in many varieties, and Caith doesn't know the difference between a mercenary and an assassin IC anyway. They both take money to kill people, right?

And poisoning yourself doesn't count, or Chlainn would have been one by the amount of booze he put away.

In reply to Caith Cernach (msg # 278):

Well, Assassins kill.  Mercenaries tend to soak up damage, hold the line if possible whilst the others do their flanking and all.  I think you'd put them in the centre so they don't run away or you can slaughter them when they do.  Pretty much what us meatshields do...

In reply to Chlainn Vacrolann (msg # 279):

Well, that's the problem you see, Caith's just taken money for a killing. So she's a mercenary now by definition. Mercenary mage, sure, but still a mercenary.

No using poison though, or she'd be breaking Healer's Oath, so she's still not an assassin technically. It's the little differences that count for everything as far as she's concerned.

Hi there folks.
I am one of the people who saw the post on the DW facebook page. Hoping to join the group.
Thinking of a cowardly and rather weak assassin by the name of Deise (pronounced Day-Sha). Celtic word meaning out ast.

Re: Character Creation Thread.

Hi guys,

Another new player here (although long term DW player) looking to join.

I'm looking at either an Albish born Knight, son of minor, minor gentry, embarked on a life of adventure in an effort to keep the family from becoming minor, minor, minor gentry, or even worse... not. Or an Albish sorceress, born in Ongus, who had to leave following a brush with the law, unable to return home until the seven year statute of limitations runs out without risking having her neck stretched, and never really having planned for any sort of hardship in her life.

Which would be most useful to the group?

I would say the knight, as we just lost one....and also we already have a sorceress and I tend to like just having one sorcerer and one warlock at most. :)

Re: Character Creation Thread.

Haha welcome welcome!

I like either. The more Albish born party members the better. A legitimate albish knight might bring up interesting back story stuff for Usopi. And an Albish sorceress would make for a potentially cool juxtaposition with Caith and Lann.

As for which career we’re missing... I guess a knight would fill the hole of the player we just lost too “getting eaten alive by trolls”, but I don’t know if we particularly NEED one over the other, and I’m not sure what characters the other new players are making.


Edit - but GM says there’s a count limit on magic types, so i guess knight. :D

Esit 2 - you replied before me, but I wrote this whole thing, so I’m leaving it here.

Re: Character Creation Thread.

I wouldn't have had a problem with a full spell list Sorceress as well as a Hedgewitch and a Warlock in the party, but I'm fine with another Knight too.

I have no problems with an Assassin either. I do get a bit snarky when other people expect my PC to make and use poison just because she's got Herbalist skill.

I'm glad to see we have a new Mystic too. Variety is the spice of life, right? :)
