You know what to do here. This will also be the place to talk to character if you are looking to join a coterie at the start of the game.

Sorry all, I'll be catching up on my PMs tomorrow. Just finishing a project for an art class I'm taking, and its taken more time than expected. That is what I get for taking college courses for fun. But I'll be working until midnight to punch this out, so gaming will take a back seat tonight.

Evenin' everyone, your resident Banu Haqim warrior and judge of justice.

Hoping to form a coterie pre-game to be part of as we travel to Toronoto together. If anyone is interested, hit me up in a PM.

Bear with me all while I go through the 20 questions and set up character sheets.

I believe I'll cap things about 10-12 characters initially and see where I'm at in terms of time dedications.

If you are interested in Coteries, let the other players know. Some of you may be only a couple as you enter Toronto, and that is fine. As your stories cross you may pick up more, merge, divide, and what have you.

I have some Loresheets in mind that I will introduce as they are "discovered". I've still not made up my mind on what I'm going to do with players that already have a Loresheet should they wish to enter these Loresheets, so I'm open to taking your opinions on that case.

Hey folks...

A couple of questions for you all:

Chronicle Convictions - what are some guidelines overall that we can all adhere to/aim for?

How are you each sort of falling when it comes to Anarch/Camarilla?

What kinds of Coteries are folks thinking of? Since a number of them are written as if they are integrated into local politics, I'd imagine that some are out of reach or impractical.

As far as Derek goes, Camarilla here as far as that goes.

For Coteries, sounds like there is one sort of based on 'justice/judgement', but that's it so far. Though I'm sure there could be additional ones formed in-game (or if anyone else has some proposals).

Justice? Judgement? sounds like Camarilla crap all right. Odd how justice always seems to point to what the elders want, eh?

Yeah that's right. It's Anarch time. Freedom for all!

While Bassel naturally leans towards Camarilla in lieu of his clan, he doesn't necessarily follow their sense of Justice. Quick of you to assume though. ;P I thought the Anarchs was all about justice though, so.

We are, that's why we don't like to team up with a sect that employs warlocks to curse an entire clan, guilty and innocent alike.

I'm going to be a little spotty today, mostly active at night time in North America.

I'll have the Chronical Convictions set then, as I wanted to wait on the characters.

Re: OoC

I looked at the Tzimisce as Option 3 too. Not so much for the fleshcrafting, but more for playing the inhuman outlook they tend to develop due to their bane.

But a Nos getting adopted in a brood is it's own kind of mind-shattering horror. :)

So many faces and no leader among you. Not to worry, a Ventrue is here! XD

Hello everyone, glad to be playing with you, and I'm not gonna be that stuck up in game. :P

Re: OoC

Chronicle convictions are up.

Chronicle Convictions
• Courage is the highest value.
• My sect, right or wrong.
• Always keep your sworn word.

We are going with a new frontier sort of motif, and Toronto is similar to the wild west, but in kindred terms.

Give me a shout when you are done your sheet. I'm still processing a few more characters.

Just to be clear, I'm not balancing this game on Camarilla/Anarch lines. How things fall in that regard is up to you all.

I'm hoping by Wednesday/Thursday we can have the first RP threads kicking off.

Re: OoC

Hello everyone!  Excited to be joining you.

I'll be going over the threads today and getting a feel for what's out there already, but I wanted to say hi. Zofia (and her business partner Julian, who you'll meet later) are going to be a little bastion of safety and stability in an otherwise unfriendly world. Assuming they can get Asylum's newest franchise up and running despite being roughly 2,519 miles away from their Patrons, of course.

Considering their Patrons are Jeanette and Therese Voerman? Maybe a little separation is for the best.

In reply to Zofia Kaminski (msg # 23):

Is there a standard sheet people are using, or do we just do us?
