Fantasy RedStone - OOC

[Remembrance]

I'm sure some manner of love is in the air yes.



I imagine team moves.

Like Akiba's Strip level of duo combo moves? Cause honestly, that's the coolest thing I've ever imagined.

 

[Huntertabbysandshark3]

soo i hope my random species is totally fine XD i mean i hope they fit i think they might be a lil op

 

[Mitch Conner]

PeanutLemur so just so I'm clear on this Ramalite isn't actively required to trigger whims, just to boost them, yeah?

 

[Huntertabbysandshark3]

actually looking at other peoples abilites HE IS NOT THAT OP just sort of very very good at hitting someone XD

 

[Mitch Conner]

Yours is the lizardman with the raygun and the force field who can make weapons out of thin air and is completely unkillable right

 

[Huntertabbysandshark3]

well harloteck himself IS killable

its cars (the larso) that's the unkillable one, well unkillable as longs there ramalite core has power

 

[Heathestus]

PeanutLemur so just so I'm clear on this Ramalite isn't actively required to trigger whims, just to boost them, yeah?

Yeah basically I think. The way I see it, they act as a kind of magical focus. Makes it easier to use more powerful abilities for longer.

 

[Mitch Conner]

Oh so it's his pet that's unkillable makes sense since the power stone in the chest did seem like painting a target on your back from step 1
So where are all the other lizardmen anyway like do they usually do shardhunting work or are they mostly accountants

 

[Huntertabbysandshark3]

the larazit do a lot of shardhunting, since they need them to power the larso resurrection powers, they also uses ramalite, as a spice for foods, along with needing it for there "rayguns" and shields,

its mostly the task of the older larazit the ones that have control over a few hundred well trained larso, the only ones that go shardhunting with fewer than that are cooks as not only are they collecting shards there also there to collect whatever creatures might lurk in the area as it would make a excellent meal

 

[Mitch Conner]

So people in the setting have to worry about having to randomly contend with multiple platoons of undying battle-lizards and their gun-toting lizardman handlers whenever they go shardhunting?
Man, the stakes just got a lot higher

 

[LegoLad659]

Yeah, I'm not really on board with this either, and not just for that reason. That's just one of many warning flags that CS has pulled up for me

 

[Huntertabbysandshark3]

yeah i can change things if you wish, im not against fixing it up



i can just remove the whole second species if you want me too or reduce the numbers drastically?

 

[Huntertabbysandshark3]

i apologies for it being stupid...but if you have any ideas for what to change please tell me

 

[Mitch Conner]

Honestly I think it adds to the setting having roving tribes of heavily-armed demihumans ambushing people in addition to all the other hazards
Though I do kinda question what purpose the Larso really serve here since, going by the CS, they seem to have advanced magitech but are also basically attack dogs that need a handler to wrangle them? Like, are they some kind of precursor meat robots or do they serve an ecological niche unto themselves and this is a symbiotic relationship? I'm curious as to where you're going with this

 

[LegoLad659]

Let's just say it doesn't give me high hopes for you as an RPer in general. I'll stop myself now before I say anything I may regret.

(If you REALLY want to hear more, you can PM me about it, but beware: It's brutal)

 

[Ennuis]

Whoa, didn't realize the OOC was up.

 

[Mitch Conner]

Oh hey good to see you again man

 

[Huntertabbysandshark3]

first of all thanks for supporting the idea and secondly

the idea was it is symbiotic relationship with the larazit due to the massive size of larazit many jobs they are incapable of doing the construction of there rayguns and shield is done by the larso most writing is also done by them as well cooking is exclusively done the the larazit but many other jobs are done by the larso in return they the larazit train them so they have a chance to actually live pass there first few years and the core that are installed inside them allow them to servive fatal

 

[Remembrance]

I don't necessarily like it, because lizards in their own right are a very pretentious and picky species. While there isn't much description about how the lizardmen survive or live, I imagine they live in a semi-arid swamp-like area which is in low quantity in the world map depending on how you view it. I see it as there is no possible way that large armies of these things can exist without internal problems coming out from every corner.

Honestly I think it adds to the setting having roving tribes of heavily-armed demihumans ambushing people in addition to all the other hazards

I don't disagree with you that it does increase the tension by having moving variables in an environment where conditions and timing is everything, but it's akin to a game developer adding an enemy that solely hunts down the player for no particular reason besides creating stress and tension. It comes off as crude and really out of touch.

 

[Huntertabbysandshark3]

right like i said i can just change them perhaps just remove em totally

 

[LegoLad659]

right like i said i can just change them perhaps just remove em totally

Before we make any concrete decisions on what to do, let's wait until tomorrow morning and see what the GM has to say. I'll be waiting until then to make a decision of my own, anyway

 

[Remembrance]

Also who liked my little stat chart? Had to add that in for effect.

 

[LegoLad659]

(Not to say we can't or shouldn't discuss it or anything, but hold off on actual actions until the GM's actually awake and gets a say on this)

 

[LegoLad659]

Also who liked my little stat chart? Had to add that in for effect.

It was interesting. Was that just an image you made specifically for the sheet, or a clever bit of coding? (Since I know you can do TONS with that nowadays)

 

[Huntertabbysandshark3]

ok sounds good to me, but yeah i think i should probably change some things, its more or less the race itself that seems to be the problem, but aside form that what do you think of harloteck himself anything wrong with the actual character you guys might have?
