Dance with the Devil (Dark Heresy 2.0) - Chat Game

So, after some discussion with my two available players, Dance with the Devil is becoming a chat game. It will be on Thursdays and likely be at 7PM EST(UTC -05:00)


I currently have @The Dark Wizard and @Lord of Chaos as players and was seeing about getting a few more applicants for review to play. Any takers?


Synopsis:


Have you ever danced with the devil in the pale moonlight? Sometimes we have to do bad things when we go after bad people. Inquisitor Anton Rezados lives by this policy, recruiting those of flexible morals to be his Acolytes in his fight against the corruption and criminiality of the Imperium. You fight a battle with no end, but you might just get rich and powerful along the way. Who else can guard the soul of Mankind if not those who've already danced a few steps with the devil already?


Think of its as Suicide Squad in 40k. Your going to be criminals or people caught doing wrong in the system. Your very existence might have been a crime as a mutant or Psyker. Rezados picked you because you were willing to sign on with him for a pardon and understanding he'll kill you himself if you betray the cause. He offers reward for success and punishment for failure, the Imperium cannot suffer incompetence in its darkest hours. You might even prove yourselves enough to warrant power and trust, rare things in the 41st Millenium.
 
I'd be very interested, love Dark Heresy. Couple of questions first...

  • How long do you expect each session to be? 7PM EST is midnight where I am. I'm happy to stay up for two hours, but three may be pushing it unless the start time is moved is moved forwards.
  • Where will the game be? Skype, or somewhere else?
  • Any particular House rules or preferences to know about?
  • What character roles are already being filled?


Will definitely take part if you have me, assuming positive answers to these questions.

-I expect session to be about two to three hours at max. I understand you time constraints though with the difference. Depending on group concensus, we'll see about when everyone can make it for an hour jump backwards. If not we can at least get in two hours.


-So far we haven't gotten any characters claimed/setup. I want it to be a group discussion on some level.


-We'll be using Discord as we can generate a private group server for the game.


-No current House Rules. I'll be looking to use all available books for the game.

Cool,min that case I'm in!
 
So, I understand that we are going to be criminals and other undesirables, but what is the tone we are going for here? The two ideas I've had are: an intense investigator who stops at nothing to uncover the truth, even crossing what few lines the Imperium has OR a hotblooded ex-arbites who doesn't play by the rules and was framed and kicked from the force. One fits a Dark tone, the other fits Comedic. Either could apply to a suicide-squad style game, but I'd like to keep in line with the game's expectations so I don't derail anything.
 
Hmmm, either is viable. I tend to try to keep things serious, but if ridiculous things happen due to player actions, that can't be helped. I do like the sound of both characters.
 
I was thinking along the lines of a very proud, traditional ex-guard Rough Rider who murdered his commanding officer and then deserted following a local dispute. He'd probably have some sort of primitive medical background, and so could fill a Chirugeon role. Otherwise I have a second, less fleshed out idea for a criminal information-broker and fence who was caught and turned in for the law to handle.
 
I find point buy is better for getting the character one was planning for.


Use base 25 for yours characters.
 
Okay. Any other houserules I should know about? I'll throw both concepts together, see which comes together most nicely
 
Its really touch and go. We'll be sticking to acquistion rules starting out, etc. I really want to test 2.0's systems out more with this.


Also if you have any angles your curious about seeing your characters explore, let me know.

[QUOTE="Lord of Chaos]Clearly your doctor and my ex cop need to team up as Manly Men Doing Manly Things. Let's get our double k on!

[/QUOTE]
Agreed, they'd make a good team!
 
Ah, we are going to be using Discord. I need to make Wizard make his character though. So I suppose we'll plan for next week?
 
Long story short I talked to Dark Wizard and I know little to nothing about your dice rolling system or Warhammer but I'm able and willing to learn! I'm on the discord or lurking to talk whenever.
 
Well, we can talk sometime soon. You can also feel free to message me if you would like.
