I was about to start writing my first post but [@enmuni] makes a very good point. Is this meeting in English or French as I highly doubt my character would have learnt any French as a working class Londoner [@Olive Fontaine]

Yes, everything being said would be in French in the reality of the game. Honestly, my suggestion would be to have your character know at least enough of the language to get by, or it will be more difficult for you to really interact with the NPCs. There [i]was[/i] a long history of using French and Latin in Britain. They were used as international languages, which were more easily accessible to the whole of Europe than things written only in English. So I don't think it's too far outside the realm of possibility for Sam to know some. True, it was more of an upper class behavior, but your character is an inventor and probably would have had plenty of reason to study foreign tractates on science. So you'd be able to communicate, but you'd still be quickly recognizable as a foreigner.

Joséphine's first language is English as well (I think), but she speaks really naturally due to her family, study, and long stay in the country. You could try to rely on her for translations, but I think that this may be a bit more trouble than it's worth for our game.

Terribly sorry for the delay; I hope this will help us get moving!

No worries at all! That was a great first post.

I've been putting together a character too. I thought that we could use someone with more of a spiritual focus, so that's what I'm going for. But I felt that she wouldn't be right for this game without a delightfully dark twist. So she won't just be a goody two-shoes. I'll introduce her in game soon and I'll add a little blurb to the characters tab.
