  • okay, so i guess our first order of business should be drawing up character sheets


    i think they should be something like this (i have explanations within the form, and this is by no means the form that will be used; its just an idea):



    there are going to be skill checks, hence the default stats. for these i will be using classic six sided die. if your skill is 5 or above, i will use two dice. youll have to trust me on what i say you roll, but i promise i wont interfere with the dice cx

    so say you have dexterity 5, and you roll a 4, you win the skill check. if you roll a 6, you lose the skill check. if you roll a 5, you tie and ive not decided whether or not you win or lose ties cx ;;


    together we can work out a base plot, but only i will know exactly what is coming. like i said on the other thread, i will have a supporting character to help and guide the mission along.


    so i guess now we check out the character sheet and come up with a nice plot :3

  • and so i guess what well have to do is a turn-base style, so i can start out with the prompt, lead role follows, then we can decide which supporting role is next. ill have my support role move last.


    this is bound to make the play slow but this is why i ask for veey active members cx ;;


  • i think for your two characters thatd work out just fine ^^

    ill treat them as totally separate deals so one character might move before the other


    im not sure how this will work yet cx


    turn-based moves might not have to be in play? ill try to figure that out ^^


  • so what should the general plot be?


    it can be paranormal, regular, idk


    like for a paranormal idea these characters can all have to band together to destroy and seal portals spouting demons from the underworld (kinda sorta stole that from the arkham horror)


    or for regular it could be like


    a murder mystery, or civilians in a war, or etc etc


    any ideas/preferences?


  • have you played this war of mine? (another board game cx ;;) ill probably use that as another reference for this cx ^^


    considering ive never done this, i have to use my experience from board games cx ;



  • these two bios are massive wips since I have to figure out how to complete the bottom half.

  • omgoodness these are great so far ^^


    tbh im not entirely sure how to fill out the bottom myself, but like


    for example, feliz might have high strength and low dexterity, mild intelligence, low wisdom, decent? charisma?, and mild speed


    i would base the bottom portion on how you think the character would be


    im not entirely sure though cx ;; well work on it ^^


  • okay, cool! (and no problem~)


    are we going to go for a more historical fiction? like sayyyy ww1/ww2?


    and since weve got a mortician, we could make it like uhhh, scientists reanimating bodies? like Frankenstein or Herbert West?


    and we could either have our characters as sort of bad sort of good

    or they could be bad

    or they could be good


    gosh im coming up with more of a story than a plot and i cant reveal it all since im tryna keep you guys in the dark of the whole plot cx


    this is harder than i anticipated cx


  • I could definitely work with that. I actually would have a character idea ready to go for something like that.

    And it's all good, I definitely get what ya mean, and I can see where you're coming from.


    Personally, I'd leave it up to the player to decide if they're character is ultimately good or bad or whatever, to give it a more personal touch, plus, even if they're on a side considered "good" or "evil" they may have reasons for it that kinda line them up on the other side.

  • If you think Archie isn't going to waste his life to bring back a body, you'll be very very wrong.


    He will and Felix is not amused.


    Either war is basically worse than the other. One war lead to the collapse of empire, the other erm yeah no. We are not going into that.


    So for Archie, he fell stupidly in love with an artist who met his untimely demise.


    I am not suggesting necrophilia but bringing back a body from the dead with the time, effort, countless amount of money spent.


    And the account of him dying himself with the additional of possibly been sentenced to an aslyum for this.


    Archie is gonna be so defensive and awkward and in love.


    Someone stop me!!



    I am telling you that the lead role will swap between my boys.


    Felix is going be probably dragged into the crime life, once the mafia realizes that damn this kid is good. Why the hell is he so sugary?


    Since I am very obsessed with alchemy, Archie will try to and fail horribly to reanimate the deceased corpse that way.


    Everything has exchange. So what will Archie give up? Mh?


    I might make another two sets of characters.

  • i love that cx okay, so, i guess for the character im gonna use to keep everyone one track and on the plot like im gonna do a sort of private detective whos been hired to keep an eye on "mysterious activity" concerning archie


    but he/she (havent decided) is totally confused as to what archie is doing, so s)he just follows him around and hopes to figure something out for the person who hired him/her


    the mafia is a nice touch cx like, s)he could come across felix and be like okay WHAT the hell is happening


    corpses, alchemy, MAFIA


    wtf


    okay yes this is exciting cx


  • I can imagine what happens next when they appear on the Archie's door step and he's like: what the fu- can I help you?


    Ensue the snark that my tired child would use.


    Felix is like: Yeah my brother is in that mood again. He's not gonna listen to reason.


    slides two characters.


    They are named Jasper and Casper.


    I naturally have a twin obsession.


    And these two are going to kill one another. For obvious reasons.


    They aren't exactly twins since they are about two and half year apart.


    They are half brothers and both run the mafia been worse than the other.


    Both of them are responsible for the rampant serial murders that are running wild.


    FYI: they are sadistic. One is a masochistic. Erm sadomasochistic if you will.
