@Jeyma Thank you for your interest! I've actually closed applications but I am still getting some from a few players. I can put you on a list in case anyone drops, or if it seems feasible to add more players later. PM me your sheet if you want!

@Mokley@Gunther So we got this figured out already, huh?


I have nothing figured out.
I think Polybius tossed a cookie in the room and left us alone to fend for ourselves. It is that awkward moment when someone needs to say something and no one knows what to say.

I WILL SAY! :D

So we've got a short flashy assassin-guy with a small arsenal hidden on his person, the most entertaining lizard-guy in the world, a piece of cheese* (successfully) posing as the hero of legend, a happy con-man who sings about the hero of legend, a broody wizard-guy preoccupied with revenge, and an even shorter lady armed with a screwdriver.

I could see us all being in the same place, maybe a generic tavern, maybe something like a carnival. Maybe one of you bards discovers and sings about the great H. Erstwhile's terrible feats, and another of us -- probably Cole and Charlie, maybe Chao and Dali -- already have an invitation to the Ceaseless Feast. Saoirse would likely insist on tagging along as a +1, if only for the chance to see Erstwhile's collections, and would probably be forward in asking others to come along as well, if only for protection and anonymity.

Essentially my suggestion is that we're all fresh acquaintances who were either invited or invited ourselves to this dinner party, and agreed ahead of time to go together. Personally, because of our very different backgrounds, I don't think I could pull off having known you guys for very long, haha. It's more fun to figure you out as we go!

*I don't know why Cole reminds me of cheese. He seems cheesy. I love it. xD

I suppose I was asking if you wanted to have a bit of freedom to roleplay your characters perceptions of one another instead of simply lunging into the action.

@MokleyIt's quite the cast! Recently acquainted is what I had in mind, and I wanted to see how you guys played your characters before I cram a bunch of story down you your throats point you in the right direction.

Everybody loves cheese, that's why Cole reminds you of Cheese. Everyone loves a hero they can dump their insecurities (and cash) onto! LONG LIVE THE HERO NAMED COLE.

Grease his palm he might give you a lie about how he solved that one thing you care about.

Maybe we should write our character's perceptions of the other characters? It helps if we write a personality profile first. I may post one this weekend. Then we can get a sense for what sort of person the character is.

@GuntherWhat might be better is to include our character's actions and appearance upon entering the story in our CS, that way, we can always keep track of how we started.

All we really need is a base description for the setting.

EDIT: Okay, I've gotten good feedback on this. Imma go ahead and put up mine.

It'd be hard for me to write my character's perception of a character I haven't seen in action. Maybe RP arriving at a predetermined gathering spot so we can check our gameplan before going in?

@MokleyMaybe the invitation sends us to a remote area to be picked up by an automaton carriage.

I've posted an introductory scene, you may interpret however you wish. You need not be inside the Squished Fish, you could be in one of the other watering holes, or simply wandering around the District. Whatever the case, you have all received (and soon notice) a coin in your pocket. You understand it's meaning either from being in the know, or some magical hand-wavium.

Here is a considerate mention that the IC is now open. I'm sure there will be questions. I am your humble servant. I am also off to work for the evening so you'll have to wait. Good Luck!

@Mokley Do you mind if I place Saoirse Lockwillow in a casino? I am working on a post now. Chao is gambling and drinking. I was suggesting that they are in the same place and obviously know one another.

@Gunther Hmm you mean they're both frequent visitors to the same casino, and know of one another that way? Sure go for it! xD
