[The End is Nigh] Abstract Thought

[JayTee]

Are we really doing the whole language thing? Really?

I've let the Sidereal speech go by as some Celestial linguistics stunt, but I think it's made for a funny bonding moment.


Proposal: Starling's interested in learning Old Realm and with the STs permissions I could go into exp debt to pick it up. Would Ash be interested in crafting a translation arti for Torallion? Or maybe the Solars ask the Gold Faction for such an arti.


Whoa Wlf, dramatic.

I helped !

Heads-up Solars: Those who stay for the "Gold Faction" resources will be handed a city. It will be a collaborative effort for the players involved to design the city. I just wanted to point that out so you can start thinking.

 

[The Dark Wizard]

Yup!


There will be city building in this at the end of chapter one, will decide on some good rules and consult.

This is not a ploy to get you to stay, BTW. It's completely your choice.

 

[The Dark Wizard]

Right.

[JayTee]

Arg, I'm torn on what to do. On one hand, I'm already in two games based around nation building, and I really want to go out there and neck-snap some dudes ninja style.


On the other hand, allies and a city at your back is pretty useful...

 

[Unbridled Originality]

Yeah, I really don't feel like doing City building, since I'm in Kaza's game. Besides, between him and Kyros, Mako's got a fairly comfy little island paradise in the West, one big central manse with a bunch of network nodes ain't too shabby, after all.


Edit: Also, city building tends to get reaaaaally boggy, so yeah. The issue is that, the way Ura worded it, it seems more like "Stay and fight, or run away and do nothing."

 

[The Dark Wizard]

There will be plenty to do for anyone who doesn't join the gold faction, they are just an option.

 

[Unbridled Originality]

Ah, okay. Cool. I just don't really want to wind up in a situation where it's like "you do things in this city, or your plots get completely ignored."

 

[The Dark Wizard]

Not at all, as I've been saying since before the game started, there will be MANY MANY MANY MANY things to do and MANY MANY MANY MANY MANY people trying to get you to do things.


City Building is just one option in this game.

 

[Cirno]

I could go either way on the city. It makes Immanent Solar Glory pretty shiny. My character's also not designed to shine in hand-to-hand as much as future mass combat. But then that's why I planned for Performance charms.

 

[The Dark Wizard]

@Seeker, are you accepting the gold faction offer?

 

[JayTee]

I have to admit, I'm sort of partial to the idea of Layoro working with the Gold Faction as a member of their Fate Ninja killsquad, running around Creation and mucking up the plans of Creations enemies with a well timed murder. I'd that an avenue open to me?

Sure.

I just made a morale roll for all the Solars not to walk out on the Gold Faction resources and to stay and fight for creation. What do you think?

[Seeker of the End]

Is EACH Solar getting a city? 'Cuz I'm a Dawn. I train armies and stuff. Not sure about the City management stuff. Riven's a guy that doesn't want to be a king. All he REALLY wants to have is some better equipment and learn the rest of the Violet Bier of Sorrows Style and Even Blade.


Edit: Should I use ISS or no need?

 

[JayTee]

@wizard: then Layoro will join the gold faction


@Seeker: Sacrosanct Soul Retribution says hello

 

[Seeker of the End]

Dude... It was just a friendly suggestion, it's not going to stop them if they REALLY don't want to do it. It's just a thing to raise morale.


And Sancrosact is Essence 5.

 

[JayTee]

I'm kidding, don't worry

 

[Unbridled Originality]

God, it would be really in-character, but thematically inappropriate at present for Mako to just be like "Showoff." On the other hand, you just upstaged a serious egotist.


...Goddamnit I might have to take the city offer now.

 

[Seeker of the End]

I have 4 dots in Charisma and 4 dots in Presence. If you've got it, flaunt it.

One city for everyone to manage, you don't have to be involved in the politics/city management . . . every city does need a good army, you could do that.
