The underside of Ezra's single, glowing eye creased - a hint of a smirk.

"Then we have an accord. I'll expect a report in seven days, Mr. Dawson. I'm certain you will not disappoint me."

And he gestured to the men, where one hauled Adel to his feet, the other placed the bag over his head again, and they escorted him from the room.




It wasn't long after that Adel found himself on the side of the road at the edge of the Penny Stakes district, his agency and mobility returned to him. The mafiosos had been gracious hosts, even returning his cellphone to him before taking off.


@Yankee It's perrrrfect! You're welcome to add what I've written in and then you'll be free to make your move for this round, whether that's going after Matthias or expanding your territory or striking deals with anyone else. Or you can leave it how it is, I just wanted to ensure you were getting a fair start. :>

Thank you! I edited the post and added some extra stuff to set up. Basically with intent to get into contact with @ERode, @evierose, and yourself. Hopefully still good lol.

Left it open-ended on my end as well. Best that way I think. Edit: BTW if Bella's text is hard to read let me know. Could just be my grandma eyes reading it over xD

@Estylwen

I am interested in joining this roleplay; I have a few questions.

1. Is necromancy or communicating with the dead/ghost okay as a Gyfts? I was also thinking of manipulating time, controlling metal, puppets/manniquins/dolls, and weather like other Gyfts. I am also up for discussing what my character's Gyft could be with you. I want a wacky and weird Gyft since it could be fun.

2. Can people outside have Gyfts? Or is that only for the people in Nocturnia?

3. What happens when a mob boss loses all of their territories? Does the player need to start all over again? During combat, I assume the two players will discuss who wins or loses the battle for territory.

Thanks for your interest!

1. Communication with the dead is great. However, I would lean away from necromancy. It's my personal preference. ^^;

All of these other Gyfts sound great. Thr power scale is to be able to destroy a one-story building, and any absolutes given to chance in a 1d12 fight. You can see the other gyfts already made if you want to see what I mean. But yes, the more specialized, the better. You are welcome to PM me your ideas.

2. Nocturnia has a secret power within it that allows gyfts to manifest, so they are localized to Nocturnia.

3. If a mob boss were to lose all their territory, I would let them choose any unclaimed territory to start over in. And if there is no unclaimed territory I'd give them to option to 'make a deal with the devil'...

Actually, it's more Arena-styled. Players can discuss who wins in PMs if they like, but actually fighting for territory is encouraged. If there's any disagreements, the GM would ultimately decide what hits connect and who would lose/win.

Hope that answers your questions!

Right, was wondering. How much does it cost to upgrade a district to the next tier? Assuming Poor>Comfortable>Industrial>Rich

Good call. Here's what it would cost:

x To upgrade a Poor districf to Comfortable = 3 Wealth, 5 Personnel
x To upgrade a Comfortable district to Industrial = 4 Wealth, 6 Personnel
x To upgrade an Industrial district to Rich = 5 Wealth, 7 Personnel
x To upgrade a Rich district to Aristocrat = 10 Wealth, 14 Personnel

I've added a bit more info to the first OOC post, if you wanna learn a little bit more about the new Aristocrat districts. :>

Only the finest bricks in this city.

By the way, I'd like to reserve Smoke Risers as a District if at all possible.

Well
Shit

EDIT: In that case, Brewery District I suppose

Man, third edit as I look over this more and realize that I probably won't have the time or energy for jumping into a mechanics based, back to back game with all the other ones. Apologies, but I'll just be watching from the sidelines.

It seems I am just waiting on responses from @Herald and @The Savant. Regardless, I've started working on the IC and will aim to have it posted Monday. :)

Sorry, I did not realize that Erode posted our collaboration together, so I was waiting for that (then I realized they did in a hider). Then I started writing up my reply to go over to your character then realized I didn't write up an NPC sheet or anything for Asterion's NPC guys, so here is Krish. The man Asterion jumped into.

@The Savant All good! Krish looks great, the only thing I would change is to slightly increase his chances of landing a hit with the rope dart. 🤔 Besides that, they're good to go.
