Howlin' at the moon (OOC thread) [Lunar Fury]

BTW, if anyone uses any instant messengers that might be handy for things. I have ICQ which interacts with AIM, etc.
 
Ok, for any specific stuff you want to RP out, such as Blood River going to get himself a ladyfriend, we can start a thread for it. I'll probably start a new thread for the next part of the game fairly soon.


Also, I will need to know how you guys want to divide up your loot once it's all listed for you.


So far, the airship has the following goodies that you recover:


10 Fire Lances


3 Gunzola armor suits, two are damaged but repairable


1 Jade Daiklave


1 suit of Jade Reinforced Plate armor, both from a fallen Dynast


multiple iron weapons


2 small Essence cannons, backpack style


Also, in the hold of the airship, is a repair platform that is normally intedned to service Warstriders, but can be used to maintain the bodyarmors and other weapons with a repair requirement. The ship also has several large Essence cannons and Implosion Bows that can be salvaged.
 
If there is any mundane money, etc I'll take it! I'd like resources of some type. Nothing extravagant but after my life as a slave I kind of want my own possessions. Damn One Tusk always taking my stuff!


Are there mortals in this valley? I could marry one of One Tusk's tribal girls (daughters?).


I was thinking of a Beduin lifestyle during downtime . My wealth being measured in sheep and camels, etc.


When I run PBP I typically have a different thread for each location. It helps organize the threads somewhat for archiving and people can always scroll to the first post for a detailed description of the locale. It works nicely. IE, name this one "In the Valley of One Tusk" or something and make another one for "The first age tomb of Talgus full of magical armored loinclothes" or whatever.
 
The population in the valley is about two hundred humans, and about a dozen boarmen. They all know One Tusk and the rest of you are Lunars, and are good with that. There are many blood relations to ol' Tusky, and many awakened mortals and a few half-caste. So, if you are looking for a romantic connection, you have a group of people quite receptive to your roll as a Lunar.


There is not much in the way of Jade money. Pocket change, mostly. Most of the people on the ship were not planning on being out and about for long enough to need spending cash.


I forgot to list the fact you found a few small airships in the top deck. Once I'm out of class and have access to my Wonders of the First Age book, I'll let you know about them.


Also, you have found the ship captain's log and mission orders. I'll have those typed up for you later.
 
Does anyone have any plans to interogate the Fae prisoner?
 
I might give a go at it; I seem to be the only one with any real social skills. Lemme figure out what it is I want to do with my XP, first? I might buy a social charm.
 
Actually we're pretty close mechanically in social skills, or at least presence. The extra appearance helps a lot. But I don't plan on interrogating him, doesn't fit the way I see my character acting.
 
Hmm... I could probably RP summoning an Elemental assistant, but I'd really like a copy of Roll of Glorious Divinity to look at some stats for Elementals. Right now I'm stuck with the Core Elementals, and they're not the sort of thing I'm after.

I'm ditto on that. I don't know our relative abilities, but I'm not skimping on it, especially with first excellency. Still really thinking about what I want to purchase, though I know at least some of it.


On that note, what is the Fae's appearance? Since we all did see her.


BTW, do those Realm orders we found indicate the name of the consultant?
 
Tome, one cool thing about summoning is that you can assign a template and basically it breaks their will and gives them new motivations, etc. Also a limit track, etc. It's a pretty neat book.


If you're looking for something special I can find something and give you an example of how it works.
 
Her appearance is 7. As I said, she is inhumanly beautiful. She is currently being guarded only by women to reduce her ability to seduce her way to freedom.


The name of the consultant is Duncan Taeger. No one of your group knows of him. The two survivors from the ship will discribe him as pleasant, did not wear armor, and was armed only with a Seven Section Staff made of some material they did not recognize. The lower ranking members of the military disliked him being there, but the higher ranked members would jump when he said 'frog'.

That stuff'd be cool, but what I'd really like is actual stats for a nice bodyguard. Or maybe a lab assistant or something.


That is, unless Sherwood is ameanable to just letting me make up an Elemental?
 
When you summon you just call forth what you want and the essence of the spell guides it to the elemental that best suits your description. So just call what you want and whatever you summon will fit that description within reason (no essence 10 sorceror elementals obviously).


It's pretty slick.
 
So if I wanted a warrior elemental who wouldn't mind pulling bodyguard duty for a month, I'd get one? Awesome.


To the summoning chamber batm... er, bullman!


EDIT Thanks to Vanman I've managed to get my hands on a copy of the RoGD. I think an Ifrit is just the sort of thing I'm after, preferably under a Cselenite binding. I shall make a thread to RP it.
 
Just out of curiosity: how old is everyone here? I'm 22.


And are we sticking around in the valley forever? Najya is going to get wanderlust; a girl from a nomadic culture wouldn't be fond of being tied down.
 
No, you are going to be sent on a mission regarding the bound demon in the sphere.

Are you asking about other characters, or the people playing them? If its the second, I'm 36

The people playing. I'm assuming that all the characters exalted in their late teens/early 20s, considering all the backstories.


Also, 36? Hee. I shall refrain from teasing you (really it is not that old). Did you start playing rpgs recently or when you were much younger?
 
I've been gaming forever. I started tagging along with my older brother when I was 12 or so, and have been going non stop ever since. I've even gotten my wife to join in a few games, along with my nine year old daugher.
 
Gaming with your daughter sounds like a lot of fun. I definitely want to induct my (future) kids into nerd-dom.


Also I'm a girl, if that wasn't obvious.
