Funny story... I was the large lizard.

I was just more flammable than I'd hoped.

Annnnd immediately picked a new one. :P

Have you changed your character concept or stuck with it?

Yes!

In reply to Sandra Alvarez (msg # 51):

Oh, you even changed your name. :O

Absolutely! A completely different concept altogether, so it made sense to change name and background of the character ;-)

How... how did that ginormous pic even get past the selection committee?  Right-click "Open Image In a new tab" and see what I mean.  Don't get me wrong, I wish they were all that large, so many pics it's impossible to see who the avatar is, it's squished so small and ends up muddy looking when enlarged.

Also, thanks, I didn't even thinks about checking Male Superhero... and then after re-re-searching through the male categories I realized, hey, wait, didn't I see a good "black female wearing a hat" pic that would work last time I was searching for a female avatar... if I just pivot to female...

And here we are.

[EDIT]
If someone recognizes her, let me know.  I like hunting down other pics to through int he Description, but my google-fu is not strong enough today...

Is anybody else's sheet ready for review? I need one more approved pc before starting the IC social! Sound off! :)


Also, I have not received any confirmations about players wanting to team up so you will all be starting solo? ((I believe Sandy and Mordecai are the only exception-- just waiting on confirmation.))


Thanks all.

I had a bit of a busy day yesterday,  and I didn't get my sheet done.  At lunch I'll get to work.

Yeah, I'll need a little longer for the sheet to be ready.

No pressure y'all! Just trying to be transparent as possible. Also, Please check out the latest post in the announcements thread. Thank you!



Edit: We now have 3 fully approved PCs. I will start the IC social thread asap. Please do NOT post if i haven't said you were fully approved.

Rattled Malcolm into working condition now, he's a fellow affiliated with a fair sized part of the death care industry who recently retired following an altercation on a business trip. His new goals in life are roughly in the same field but with a very different customer base and much more benign motivation than profit.

On those Geist specific things he's a Torn Gatekeeper, all in on Boneyard with the Stigmata and Grave-Dirt keys. Mostly socially inclined mechanics wise, while he will be picking up wider skills given the new lifestyle it fits the most for the background.

Already confirmed with the GM I'd not fussed about needing solo play so happy to tag along wherever people need some extra numbers.

Sorry, must have missed this.  I just kinda figured we'd all end up getting lumped together by "circumstance" and "plot", but if someone wants to start already having met a young Sin-Eater who's been kicking around awhile but keeping their head down, I'm game.

I think we have enough players in the game that we'll likely end up in at least two Krewes? We could even end up in 3. Mordecai and I were talking about possibly knowing each other, because we are friends IRL and wanted to be in the same Krewe :)

But I'm open to exploring the idea of making other background ties with people and either starting in some established Krewes, or let the RP take us there.

I'm going to be honest,  having a hard time picking manifestions and the like.

As... they're all rather cool.  I think I might be going all in with a focus on curse... probably with phantasm/Passion.

But,  I also don't want to step on anyone's toes.

I don't know anyone else going that route yet. Can folks sound off?

Yeah, you're the first person to call out Curse.  We're had a lot of Shroud, some Caul, some Boneyard (I'm one of those).  No incipient witchdoctors with Oracle, Marionette, or Curse, though.

No Curse, Phantom or Passion here.

Even if there were overlap though Riley I'd say go with what you like. Geist's powersets tend to offer fairly handy options for a lot of situations and having more than person with that supernatural fix in their backpocket rarely hurts.

In reply to Malcolm Unsworth (msg # 65):

^^^ This.

And haha Riley. I totally understand! I love all of them too. I guess that's why I'm the GM lol

I'm going full Oracle, Stillness and Stigmata.

I think my character will be silent and stigmata shroud

I'll go for Shroud and Rage most likely (with a chance to mix in Caul as well) and as keys silent and idk I was going for Phantasmal before I discovered rage - have to check.

Character sheet added... and I strongly recommend adding word wrap to the Character Sheets...

I've got the basics done, but now I am stuck on manifestations and keys and all the other stuff and figuring out how they all fit together.  It's been about a decade since I've been in this book.  The layer of dust on it is proof. xD

It looks more and more like Anne is going to be quite good a combatant - focused on brawl and in particular grappling though. I didn't see that coming, but in retrospect this was not so unlikely to happen.

There are still some things to decide on, some derived values to calculate and all the background and personality I have in mind to be written down...
