@OtomostheCrazy Sorry, but I need to be the bearer of bad news. As much as I enjoy the idea of a lanky baker adventurer, I have to say no to the following things; magic and demons. Everyone plays a human and no one has magic here; it isn't really a thing.

Dang...Well, I'm still going to save the CS for myself. Let me get to work on a different pacifistic character

@OtomostheCrazy Sorry, man. If your next character is half as quirky as this one, then we won't have any problems.

@Bing

Actually, what if I keep most of it, but take out the magic and change them to a human? I'd need to add in a bag of baking equipment, but I think it'd work.

What do you think?

@OtomostheCrazy Actually, that would work. I wanted to suggest that earlier but though you'd prefer just changing characters.

Sounds cool, count me interested.

What are your thoughts on a character who's basically an occulist/armchair philosopher sort of character? Always believed in magic, knows it doesn't exist in this world, but believes there must be a way to find it?

Just trying to think of a concept before making a CS.

Hope this is good, the last skill basically means if Gabriel isn't talking and you're not paying attention to him you just kind of forget he's there. Thought it might be funny

@TemplarKnight07 Cant' really get a grasp on what you're trying to go for, but from what I understood, I think it'll be okay.

@duskshine749 Hmmm. The setting I'm going for is sort of fantasy medieval, so maybe change the university part. As for his skills, maybe you could change Social Invisibility to something more straight forward like Insubstantiality or something that would connote a lack of presence, since that's what you're kinda going for.

I don't mind his infinite supply of notebooks and writing implements, but do note that this could work against Gabriel at one point or another.

@OtomostheCrazy Just a suggestion, I think Confectionery Crafting rolls off the tongue a bit smoother. Anyway, Wick's definitely accepted!

@Bing I'm with you on the university thing, I was just trying to show he's a man of education. I just wasn't sure what I could put to show that. As for the name of social invisibility, I was thinking maybe unassumedness? And I'm totally cool with the possibility of someone stealing notebooks and getting a whole lot of information they probably shouldn't have, maybe if that happens he may stop writing everything

You could make use of libraries or maybe being an apprentice of something like a sage? I don't think that's a word. Maybe Inconspicuous, Subtlety, Indistinct? Yeah, but I was leaning towards the repercussions of carrying that much. How much it would way, the hassle of carry that many items given his physique, and the like.

@Bing I like inconspicuous, I changed university to apprenticeship under a local sage, and added he eventually tosses books, but he's a hoarder so it takes him longer than it should

@duskshine749 We're all good then. And it wouldn't matter if he threw books away since he technically has an infinite amount, right? So he'd still have the disadvantages of carrying a seemingly "infinite" amount of books. I mean, not really sure why you want him to have an infinite amount though. Honestly, he could carry around one or two thick ones and that would last for a while. I mean, how much do ypu plan on actually making him write?

@Bing I mean, you have a point, I was just thinking it'd be funny to have him just pull books out of nowhere and confuse people. But given his physique he'd probably go the practical route and just have a few books for his writings. Changed to having two rather large books and he has tiny writing so he's unlikely to need more

@duskshine749 He could still pull out books from his bag or what he uses to keep them. If he's gonna be consistent with that, I'm pretty sure that sort of quirkiness will be funny on its own.

Anywho, I'll just wait for at least two for characters, then we can proceed to an actual OOC thread and get this thing started.

This sounds fun and interesting.
I'll work on a character and have it posted either later tonight or tomorrow.

@Bing Thanks for the feedback, appreciate it :-)! I'm not a drawer, therefore I can't draw the character I have in mind. Is there some sort of website where I can find examples? Or just Google and find something that matches?
