After too many days of struggling to find any momentum, I think for the time being I should give the game a pass.
My apologies for dragging my feet so long.
If the situation changes, I'll come back and see if you folks want me in.
I feel especially bad about it because I think that this game is...
I'm still going through the overwhelming amount of charms in the core. T_T
Yssun will have no combat charm whatsoever because 1) I'm pretty sure the rest of the Circle can defeat a medium-sized nation in single combat anyway and 2) I really don't want to go through the new system.
Yssun was part of a guerrilla art collective, their satirical work was responsible for undermining the authority of a local satrap in Sihqe.
The satrap got pissed, found them and had their lair burned, with them inside.
Only Yssun survived, by grace of the Unconquered Sun, but she is left...
A society rigidly divided in hereditary castes, to the point where instead of family names, caste names are used.
Different laws apply to different castes.

Happy to give it a shot then.
I am far too lazy to go through the E3 combat charms, so I will play a character with just enough Resistance charms to survive.
I have two concepts in mind: a Night/Twilight spy master or a Zenith figurative artist, depending on how well it would work with the...
I've been very much on the sidelines, since the game seemed to had halted badly around the time I was invited.
Per experience, a game can survive if one of the players posts every week, but not if the ST does, it kills the sense of flow and engagement that the players have.
This is a lot more...
...those of us most enthusiastic about violence can be quite reasonable and oh my, you seem to have a way with words.
So why don't you FORKSAKE ALL HOPES IN THE FORBIDDEN GARDEN, CLOISTER THEM IN YOUR BLACKENED HEART AND DRAW THE BLOOD OF THE INNOCENT BLOODLESS *ahem* talk straight and fair to us?"
With his brain chugging to put all pieces together, Wail manages to keep his less intelligible thoughts away from his mouth.
