Is da ooc up yet boss? @Thinslayer

@Dark Cloud We start soon, tomorrow I'm thinking, if I don't get roped into more all-day house-cleaning, emotional damage, and network trouble like today. Also developing some ideas for integrating player characters into the plot, which should solidify when I post the OOC and CS sections.

@kitramos I think we can do a kitsune. The way this can work is, your character would initially be human, and you'd contract with a fox goddess who can possess you to grant you her powers. If you want to be a natural kitsune, there's two methods available: 1) The foxlike features are mainly cosmetic. You have up to nine tails (depending on the character's age; 1 new tail per 100 years) and two fox ears, with none of the other arcane powers their kind are known for. Lifespan is approximately the same as normal humans, at around 70-120 years. 2) You ascend to demigodhood and become a kitsune, complete with all their usual powers. This may only be achieved with a sufficiently powerful desire and sacrifice during gameplay.

Now, regarding the matter of game systems, it seems like everyone is relatively neutral about it, with a few expressing preferences for numerical resolution systems. So how about this: We'll try out a few battles using narrative vs numerical systems and decide which one we like better after seeing them for ourselves?

@Thinslayer aight. I'll just slap the old CS right here lemme know what needs a change.

I like Options 1 and 3 best. perhaps I start off using option 1 contracting with fox goddess and after I get more settled into this world and my role in it I start down the road of option 3? as that way we can take this char who doesn't know anything about this world give them the ability and reason to start getting invested in the world itself and the people in it, instead of just how they can find a way home. And then once that builds up to a strong enough level they can stat down the path of ascension.

that works for me.
I do agree if there's an important narrative point then that overrides the numerical systems. but in cases where it's not critical things work out a certain way then the numerical things can add a bit of randomness to keep the pot stirred.
like if it's important we get into a locked room then the system isn't used to determine if we get in, but rather if we get in strait away or if it takes a few tries to pick or force the lock. is how I look at it anyway.

We start soon, tomorrow I'm thinking,

cool, well here's hopping nothing crazy comes up. but I get it real life comes first.
when you go get the other sections ready could you post a link to them here? thank you.

Making a different origin for my character,

oh my god.

I just stumbled upon this and I feel very excited and a bit overwhelmed! To my tiny lil’ brain it’s a bit confusing but the prospect of a roleplay as interesting as this one is an opportunity too good to pass up!

I don’t think I’ll be able to roleplay in this universe just yet if it ever becomes an actual roleplay and I really need to sort out the commitment problem I seem to have but I’m definitely going to hang around.

That being said I’m going to stop this post right here and I’m really sorry if I interrupted a conversation or anything! Just needed to put this here before I completely forgot about this.

I've been busy so I havent had much time to read forum posts

What have I missed

@Blizz Not much. I was mainly helping some players decide what characters they wanted to play. Currently in the process of making OOC atm; I'll let y'all know when it's up.

Oh, and I need to finish my discussion with one player about his character's origin story.

The main thread is up! Submit your character sheets whenever you're ready, please.

@Thinslayer am..So tired..Just walked home..From store x_X

Would'ja mind helping hammer out some details about my character over PM?

Oh! Damn, just found this. Is it too late to throw my hat into the ring?

@Dark Cloud Absolutely! Let me know what you need my input on.

@Vertigo Not late at all! You're just in time. I'll put your name in the main thread.

okay I got my character posted in the main character area. I wasn't to sure what all to put in for strengths. So I started with what I think she'll get from the artificer class/ dragon blood contract. and when we have her contract with the fox goddess I can add in her new Kitsune ability's then.
