Re: OOC Chat

Aria Fox:
When taking the Beast Master Edge, would the boss prefer it if I only keep one animal and I concentrate on making a single, bigger, more powerful pet?

Edit:
As to not double post, according to the SWADE, starting funds are 500$, so being seasoned we should have 1000$. Unless being Carnies means we've got to take the Poor Hindrance.

Edit2: Having newly bought the Deadlands book, I now know that they're using 1800's currency, so 250 goes a lot further.

Edit3: My character sheet is ready for a review


Whichever you prefer - Multiple pets, or larger. I'm flexible to it :)

As for funds, SWADE is only used when there isn't a setting. You would get $250 normally in a Deadlands game (as per p14), which is then doubled for being Seasoned.

You don't have to be poor. Maybe you save money so you can retire?

Orlan Haig:
This week is honestly dragging on pretty hard right now, so I'll be happy to take a bit more time on prepping my sheet.

That's fine. I wouldn't want anyone to feel rushed and not make a character they would enjoy playing.

Re: OOC Chat

Tossed my character at the Marshal today. For transparency:

Naomi is old. She's not much physically. She knows how to use a gun, but she's not great with it.
What she -is- good at, however, is noticing things. Like, even stuff that normal eyes can't see. She's always got her finger on the pulse of what's going on around her. She also knows a lot about the occult. Like, a -lot-. And she speaks and reads a truckload of languages.
(Also she's a 'tale teller', but that's neither here nor there!)

OOC Chat

In the SWADE book, Deadlands only lists new skills, I think.

I take it Naomi knows Russian, but she is not of Russian origin/descent?

Re: OOC Chat

I'm about to be done for the night, but I though I'd check how folks are doing after the Easter weekend?

Anything you need to run past me? Or the other players?

Re: OOC Chat

Well, I think I've mostly got the character finished, and I've picked out a picture representative of Orlan at work, I suppose. :)

Re: OOC Chat

Whilst characters are getting finalised, I have made a thread for you to jump into.

It will be a way to begin expressing yourselves, see what feels right for your characters, interact with one another, with NPCs, and not risk you losing interest in them as things get ready.

Depending how it goes, we may stay here and use it as a springboard for your first adventure, or depart elsewhere.

@Renko - Don't push yourself if you don't feel well enough to sort things we'll still be here.

Re: OOC Chat

As in what time of year?

Let's say spring, and it can even be April for the game too.

Re: OOC Chat

How is everyone?

I wanted to give everyone a chance to post, but at the same time I didn't want to risk having those of you who have left alone and that I'm not wanting to be engaged with it all.

I'm looking forward to seeing what happens with all of this, how your characters and the NPCs grow, what hijinks occur, and how weird I want the west to be...

Re: OOC Chat

Does Orlan or Claire/Larissa do their own reloads for ammunition. Or does the circus have someone who serves as armorer? Old Haig, maybe? Renko has limited cartridges for his Berdanka and, being a foreign weapon, they are not readily available.

In reply to Renko Tenmo (msg # 51):

Orlan owns a firearm, but he doesn't usually use it--I imagine that he purchases new cartridges on his own, but probably very infrequently.

Re: OOC Chat

Depending on what is being done, there may be someone in the circus who can help make ammo, but it is available from towns.

Blank ammunition is more likely to get made, for any acts that don't want to risk folks getting hurt.

Re: OOC Chat

Ammo is cheap enough it should never be a concern.

How are folks doing otherwise?

Aria, how is your internet doing?

Naomi hasn't logged in since 8th April, so I think they may be gone.
