@RedXCrossTrue but it would have been nice if Asteria had at least one useful fighting ability. But nah, I guess it suits her char better not to have one. She'll just act as a support.

@HowlsOfWinterIn which case you could probably buff it to messing with the lives of mortals a bit more instead of outright killing them, if you'd like xP Since making mortals drop dead... well, I suppose it *is* useful. But a brutal way to solve problems for a Goddess of Fate if the same ability could also influence them to do things? It is a strong ability, so. Just a thought~

@MaeI should have explained that better. When she cuts the thread, it doesn't make them drop dead, they'll just be fated to die (accident, illness, etc) after the last event that has been woven in their thread. The death doesn't happen right away, it can happen some time in the future, maybe even after several years.

Also, i've decided that Asteria won't have access to the loom chamber in her mortal shell thus locking out all her last-tier abilities.

I'm tempted to wear deadpool leggings for a speech

The professor did say wear what you would want others presenting to wear

IC GOING LIVE SHORTLY!!!


Right, IC is going live shortly! A few reminders since it's been a while:

This roleplay is a tragedy - bad things will happen, there will be heartbreak, and not just serious wounds but character death, in case that's not clear yet.

Events and Success chance will be determined mostly by dice - when you go somewhere, use a skill, interact with an NPC, there is a chance of success and a chance of failure. In some cases there is a chance of death. Your skills will improve your dice rolls in appropriate situations. You are of course free to be happy when you get good luck and upset when you suffer bad luck, but I don't want to be hounded about how unfair it is or that i'm being a mean GM or whatever - I will try to make sure rolls happen as transparently as I can, so you have a better idea of rough outcomes. That being said, I reserve my right as GM to roll secretly if the situation calls for it (e.g. starkissed related rolls that might give the game away)

Potentially Instakill Abilities:


Character Ability Prices

Right so, heres the Ability list currently. I've been rushing to get it out so any abilities currently in orange may be subject to change. I also reserve the right to change any of these as appropriate at any time. You have been warned.

As of First Post, you will have 15 Lifeforce Points and no unlocked abilities yet. Dark Gods will have slightly more Points, for now we'll say 20. I reserve the right to buff/nerf both values when I've had a proper look but I want to get the IC up asap, so expect me to change my mind tommorror I guess? <3 <3 <3 :D

Please add these values to your sheet as soon as your able.
A note on relation sheets: even mine aren't complete, so I don't expect everyone to have theirs done by the time IC goes live, as that's bad form. However, I would like them completed by this the 7th of October, aka in a weeks time. At which point I'll start chasing them up to find out the low down <3

Well then, I believe that's everything!

Alright! So, I'm a bit behind. I still need to put Stalana's relationships into her CS, her Ability Prices, and then I can post. But before I do all that, I have another RP that I need to post for! Thanks for your guys' patience! ^_^

@Mae Hmm. Can I get super mental resistance?
I will leave the terminator thing out for when our gods level up. lookatmyavatar I will be back

Also, in my first post, can Vadik have low life force (say like 5 or so) since Rex really hasn't settled into his host just quite yet. It should be about two weeks (IC time) before Vadik can spend his life force proper.

Also on another matter, how does my body jumping actually work? Like I have to spend some life force to jump over to a body, so if I don't have enough or die before I can jump to a new body, do Rex joins the ranks of the ghosts or he will just find another body regardless, after a certain amount of time of course.

On the subject of detached limbs, I imagine Vadik can use his 8th skill, the Architect to pick up random limbs and replace his missing ones. However, as you have stated, the results depend on the degree or number of wounds he have to repair using this method. Too much, and I imagine it would result in turning an abomination and dying.

Also, last question, can I create a type of creature for mounts used by Craenak? Like a feline type of animal, great when traversing uneven grounds of snow-covered mountains, good for burst of speed, but fall short when it comes to maintain constant speed?

@KuramaaaZ You should mention / tag Mistress @mae here in the future :)

As you can see the OCC posts are almost constant so your character may be lost in the tide of posts.

@doltboy Unapproved character sheets should not be posted in the CS tab. This is basic RPG etiquette.

@Doltboy Characters must be accepted before they go in the CS tab. Please remove the post and add the CS to the OOC :L
Also going to look at the pending characters in a moment, just doing some IC stuff first.

@RedDusk super mental resistance sounds perfect for him. and it'll be very useful, as like, the only character who has it :P
and yes, he can start low <3 I would say you use up the lifeforce in your host, use that to jump. Any "leftover" lifeforce you need to pay will be taken in some way from the new host.

I would say his architect ability is unique in that regard. When I was thinking healing I was thinking the nice kind... not the monstrous eldritch horror of his magic xD That's perfectly fine.

Yep also fine.

Dice Mechanics

Ok so, I don't think I've made myself clear when I've explained the Dice Mechanics :L

It doesn't matter so much on the first post, but for example @BlackPanther hunting a big cat wouldn't immediately result in success. I'll accept this in the first post as it's an entrance for your character, but in future things like that will be rolled for with a skill adjustment :D

The reason for this is most characters will always have scenes where if they do something they're good at, they succeed. And rarely have I seen a character lose a limb, go into a coma, experience something really bad from a fight because they don't have to. As this is a tragedy roleplay, there will be a risk of failure at all times.

@Angel Eyes is a good example of leaving things open ended, but you don't need to leave it as open ended as he did to make it work. For example, [RedXCross] has had Numas have a vision, and I will be able to give him some unique and useful information using the dice because of it.

If you check The Dice Room, rolling is already underway for unique situations surrounding these characters. For example, Numas would of got a bad vision initially - but because of his skills, and the luck of the dice, he now gets one of the most useful visions he could have. And there is no way for him to know the information I am giving him otherwise - if Numas had just had a complete vision he decided on, he wouldn't get any information about plot, Starkissed, Dark Gods, other Gods, even Xyxis because there would of been no way to interact with it. Just as the hunting could lead to useful items or information.

Just something to keep in mind. I know most people aren't used to roleplaying this way, so it might take some time to get used to, but I hope you'll find it interesting as when your character does something really awesome, it'll be all the more awesome because it means they actually overcame the odds to do it.

@BlackPanther btw not having a rag on you or anything, just you, Angel and Numas being really good examples. As I said, for opening posts it's fine.
