[OOC] Dying Light

[DAWNSTAR]

So, how much is leveling going to effects the characters throughout the story? Obviously skill points are given less often than attribute points but how often will we recive said points?

Attribute points are going to be given out less often than skills, not the other way around; at least that's what would make sense.

[Emuxe]

To my knowledge, you will earn skill points more than attribute points. Like in a videogame, you will earn skill points with the more experience you get in each field.

Obviously, you will start with fumbling and shiz, and the more you do it, the more proficient you get at it. So I'd say each time you successfully complete a task in each skill (and hell well you do it), you will gain a point or two, depending on how Night and I feel about whether it was a good enough job to earn a skillpoint.

I'll have to double-check with Night, though.

[DAWNSTAR]

So basically, you can earn proficiency skill points which means that each success in a skill you earn a point or two. The only other way I can think of where you gain points is maybe two or three each level up. Or, maybe read a book on a certain skill and get a skill modifier in the process in which the amount is decided by a roll. Of course, books like these would be extremely rare.

[Emuxe]

It's more or less trial and error. How many points you get (if any) depends on how well and how many times you've done it well. So it's basically like videogames where each time you do something, you gain experience in that field and after a while you "level up."

Updateh?

[Emuxe]

Updates:
> Nightwing is still working on updates, whilst waiting for everyone to update their CSes, and is slowly working on the IC.
> I'm working on another prominent character to make the game more interesting and challenging for my babies <3you guys.

Now bear with us, as we are also busy irl with work/study/sport.

Sidenote: I start university next week. Aw yeah.

[CorruptedShadow]

Is this still open? I thought I might as well join since I'm getting an Rp running and nobody has joined it yet .-.

[Emuxe]

Yeah, it's still open!

[Wizard]

Considering the OOC updates aren't even finished, a good portion of the characters (mine included) need to be updated to match, and IRL-crap needs to be dealt with, I wouldn't expect if for a while.

[Rinnee]

I'll have Maggie's CS fixed within the week, as well as another character! c:

[Emuxe]

I'll message Nightwing to see how he's going with it, but we're mostly waiting on updated CSes.

...Includingmine.

Brief Bio: Jacob was a "fresh out of highschool" adult before the infection had begun. After graduating from his school in the state of Virginia, he went on to work at a local theater to major in Performance and Acting. In order to keep himself a healthy body image, he exercised daily by jogging. What began as jogging turned into running, then into sprinting, and finally into full on parkour. If there was anything that he enjoyed more than performance, it was running. The feeling of the wind blowing on his face when he sprinted felt good to him back then, because he was so free to run anywhere he wanted. However, the infection started....and everything before him began to crumble.

He was close to his family when he had come to their rescue on that one chaotic day. Blood was being carved everywhere on the streets. Riot police fought rioters, infected, and anything that would so much as cause trouble. When he had arrived to his home, his father was already taken. He quickly took his two younger sisters and mother and fled the state by bus with a large group of other people. They traveled south of the eastern coast, trying their best to survive for a month until they had reached Florida, where the bus crashed.

When he awoke from the wreckage, most of the other survivors had been killed in the crash save a few. He recollected his memory and remembered how the crash began...it started with his mother becoming ill. She had turned when they were half-way to the dock that had an emergency radio broadcast, relaying to survivors that it would bring them to Havana, Cuba. Burying his family near the bus crash, he continued on to the ship where he was taken to Havana...but again, the same problem arose just like the bus...a person was stricken ill...and the boat crashed.

This is all I really got for now, does it look good? I kind of wanted to start off out of the group and maybe end up meeting up with them due to the boat crash that he had in Havana. I would love some constructive feedback!

[Emuxe]

Oh, it seems I have a parkour friend.

[CorruptedShadow]

Yeaaaaaaaah.

[Emuxe]

I'll out-parkour you.
But yeah, I think it looks good so far.

[CorruptedShadow]

Oh is that a challenge? I sense competition between two survivors.

[Emuxe]

Babe, I have a Parkour of 17 and a Stamina of 7.
I will own you, biatch.

But in all seriousness, Cori would be up for some competition.

She's also at 36 skill points. My 5 bonus Parkour laughs at all of you though.
