Dice Scion - New Kids on the Block (OOC)

[Red Shadow Claws]

This is for OOC discussion on our Scion game.

A few things to discuss, and figure out, before we start character creation, and the game itself.

1. I want to start you guys at Origin, so you have some powers, that started manifesting, and you start to discover the world is not exactly what you thought it was. And then during that time, when you impress your Divine parent, or another Divine being, you get visited.
2. You can start thinking who your divine parent is, but keep in mind that your actions might cause that parent to disown you, and then you are fair prey to others, who might be impressed with you. And depending on your actions, you might find yourself facing two or more divine beings vying for your allegiance, in something that can upset established alliances, or forge new ones, and make new enemies.
3. We need to figure out what age you want your characters to be, and what is the location we start in.

For now, you don't have to fully stat your character, just to create a concept.

 

[D. Rex]

I'm thinking about about making the child of one Son Wukong and have me some martial arts fun.

 

[D. Rex]

Are we allowed to mess with the supernatural paths any?

 

[Gaius Danius Griinia]

Either a Scion of Loki or Odin for me

Let me read up on them a bit, and I'll give you an answer

 

[thefinalgirl]

Would a Scion of Ame-no-Uzume or Tsukuyomi be alright? I wanted to make an artsy shrine maiden kind of girl if that is possible.

 

[D. Rex]

One of my other ideas was a scion of the kami Ebisu! A fisherman could be make for some fun. A chill and peaceful fisherman turning his talents to the hunting of titans with patience and cleverness.



Another idea I had, depending on if supernatural paths were allowed, to be a young kitsune scion of Inari.

 

[Red Shadow Claws]

Because this is my first time running Scion 2.0, I'd rather not use the supernatural paths.

Sounds good.

Where do you guys want to start? I see a variety of concepts, which is great, but we need to decide on a location where they can all fit.

I can be anywhere, whether I go Son Wukong or Ebisu. Though the latter scion would do well around water.

If thefinalgirl is wanting a Shrine Maiden, then maybe let's start somewhere that a kami might have a shrine set up for her to have her start in.

 

[Red Shadow Claws]

grimmmy you have a character concept?

I think that would be cool! It'd be a good set-up for each player's character to meet up through a 'fateful' encounter with each other.

 

[Gaius Danius Griinia]

Since we seem to leaning towards Eastern Mythologies
I'll have to pick a god that will suit the kind of character I want to make

Are you playing an Onmyoji type thefinalgirl ?

Not really an Onmyoji. My character will be a Miko which leans in being a shaman more for either Ame-no-Uzume or Tsukuyomi.

 

[thefinalgirl]

Then again, I think I'll settle for Ame-no Uzume. Her design in SMT/Persona is what brings me to her. XD

 

[Gaius Danius Griinia]

I'm switching to Susanoo-o

The Chaos powers look neat

You don't have to be from an oriental mythology. Have the fun is when the different mythologies meet, and then tensions between them, so you can still be a Scion of Loki or Odin.

Ok, to get things going:

Character Concepts:
thefinalgirl - Shrine Maiden
Gaius Danius Griinia - Shinobi
D. Rex - Fisherman
grimmmy - ?

Note that I'm asking for a character concept, not who's your divine parent.

I think I want to make a fisherman. A hunter of land and sea.

I shall be a Shinobi in service to our Shrine Maiden

Oh, that sounds lovely!

Ok, since it seems everyone is a scion of the Kami or the Shen, Do you guys want to set the game in the far-east? or somewhere more western? (Am not super familiar with the far-east, and while I can read, and will read, about it, it won't be 100% accurate depiction)

I'm not picky on who my patron is as the fisherman. So he really could be reasoned to be anywhere. East or west.


But a good middle ground might be Hawaii. I think that place has a few shinto shrines. And western enough to be able to keep some Familiarity.

I agree with D. Rex as it feels like it'd be a good middle ground between the West and the East. And also, it's quite a pretty nice location with how much history it has when viewed in terms of the deal with the US and Japan back in WW2.

 

[Red Shadow Claws]

Ok, so Hawaii it is.

Does everyone has the Scion: Origins book? Anyone needs help making their character?
