Re: Opening Chat to start the game.

Narrator:
One more thing I started to posted Blue Sector - and I'm going to list by level where things are as you play

I will post the docking areas some markets and living quarters (hotels) as well as entertainment areas.

As we go the info. will also grow and we will add to what's in the books creating our very own setting within the books.


I don't know if it will help, but the Babylon 5 Station Guide Boxed Set has some floor plans that might help.

Re: Opening Chat to start the game.

In reply to LordHerneErlking (msg # 78):

Yes, that's what I was reading today and last night, ....
So those maps are flat, but actually they run round ??
The ends connect and you literately have a circle ??

I see this flat map but trying to image how each floor connect
- front - back - top and bottom.

I normally don't have any issue reading maps, I do engineering daily.
But for some reason I can not image this in my head, :(

To be honest I have never looked at them that much. I can definitely see what you mean. I will have to think about that some more. I think they are supposedly arched, but you never really see that. It maybe that the arch/circle is so large you can't even tell when you are inside.

Re: Opening Chat to start the game.

Character Name: Andilo Malachi

If anyone wants to know him already that is alright with me. He is a Noble from a minor house, House Malachi. His long term goal is to make his house one of the great house, and get ascension.

Do you want us to purchase a lifestlye? Are we going to be based on Babylon 5, at least at the beginning?

Re: Opening Chat to start the game.

Lifestyle is everywhere its how you live and waste money on. lol

A Centauri would want luxuries when they can and likely throw money around even when traveling.

Re: Opening Chat to start the game.

So I see some character sheet ready, looks good.
Once your sheets are ready and you have them posted please give me in PM, a background story leading to the arrival at B5.

Each player will start by docking and going though customs.

To post in IC you most have a sheet completed.
If you don't have the books or need help we will be working on help you next.

Thanks

Looking at maybe this coming week to have everyone in the game and posting.

Re: Opening Chat to start the game.

I put up a request for player.
It will only stay up for a short time as we already have 5 players.

This will have no effect on you guys, just keep doing what your doing and IC is open for those ready.

Don't forget I need your background stories in PM.

Re: Opening Chat to start the game.

Likewise my friend.  I really love the Centauri too, I am a big lover of intrigue.  The Bab 5 game I ran on RPOL years ago centered around an intrigue dealing with a Centauri family and the heir to its misfortune: the Lady Neriel Valini and her old valet, Vinda Valo.  I nearly played Vinda here in fact.  I still have the Centauri book for first edition somewhere around here.

But the pak'ma'ra really are intriguing, simply because they are so very alien in so many respects.  The idea of playing one as a Ranger was simply too good an opportunity to pass on.  I promise, if Q'voth'zal dies, I'll see if the Narrator will let me play Vinda and we can shake up the Centaurum together :)

Right now, I'm just trying to decide how or why my character would end up onboard a ship with everyone else :P

Re: Opening Chat to start the game.

Hello

Everyone should have be able to edit character sheet now and please post them. You will not be able to start until you have a sheet posted.

I will be going over them in time & checking them as well as editing the sheets to a universal sheet that I will maintain. This will take some time and for now I will work with that everyone has posts.

Lastly I will close the game to new players as we have about 8 players and 2 NPCs

The game will reopen if we go below 6 players, and or if the events as we play require new players.

I will be posted so terms and reasons why you could be dropped for the game.
Basically it's just to keep the game from falling into the RPOL endless trap of stalling to a stop.

Please keep posting in IC, do not wait for a another player or GM if you want to do something. As long as you don't play an NPC you are free to post and be creative. allow a day maybe two max and you can always post as OOC: and ask question and or post so we know your waiting on the next move. I will also post some tip on this so the game does not stall.

Re: Opening Chat to start the game.

Good your notified as to the hospital issue as per courtesy its not a big emergency. I'm sickly so if I don't post assume a medical issue came up. The narrator can run my character if needed.
