[OOC] Slay the Spire

[Dark Cloud]

@Dog Don't tell me...Your character is named Andre? Right?

[Whoami]

@Whoami At least for the sake of having choices for Joan, are we going to include more types of creatures aside from the canon monsters/enemies? I'm fine if not, just curious if we'll expand on the world within the Spire.

@Lucky

I have many a plan for that. ;)

Magharmaw, The Great Devourer

Magharmaw

Great Devourer

Tank

Personality
Despite his looks, Magharmaw is quite a calm and nice person. Outside of combat, he speaks in a soft voice and likes to talk about food and dogs (mainly dogs). Not only that, Magharmaw is highly supportive of others and their goals, whatever that may be. He enjoys the company of others and hopefully, they enjoy him. When it comes to combat, Magharmaw is a wholly different beast entirely. The title of Great Devourer is not just a fancy title given to him out of nowhere, friend. He is highly violent in combat, brutally butchering anyone in his path.

Blessings
Devourer - Magharmaw has been noticed and blessed by the Lord of Hunger for his past feats of great feasting, a result of Magharmaw ‘s never-ending need for food and drink. The ogre now has the ability to cook very wonderful food, but most importantly Magharmaw can eat any fallen (or not so fallen) enemy (meat, metal, etc) and restore portions of his strength and health in the process.

@Dog Whoa that's completely unexpected lol.

[Whoami]

Well I'm off to work for the day. Just wanted to say I woke up to that face and had to take a moment to process what the hell was even going on.

[Dark Cloud]

@Dog I saw it and thought "Waaaait a second...That's not a blacksmith."

@Dark Cloud

It is not a blacksmith, but a massive hulking ogre, but not the green-kind that likes hang out with a donkey. Not yet anyhow.

VITTORE, THE DESERTER

VITTORE

THE DESERTER

Character Archetype
Fighter

Personality
Vittore is generally attentive and perceptive, though that has a lot to do with how twitchy they are. They’re the soul of discretion and good at keeping secrets. They have a bone-deep existential horror that they can’t quite put a name to. They would much rather be home, drinking tea and tending a vegetable patch, but here they are.

Blessings
They’ve got no blessings to speak of.

Curses
He’s got a mark on their left shoulder that intermittently becomes agonizingly painful, as if trying to remind him that it’s there. It tends to flare up at inconvenient times. It seems to be growing in size over time...

Relics
He doesn’t have any relics.

So I'm just working throughout the week and don't have much time currently. I'll get everything in gear for Friday and the weekend!

[Lucky]

@Whoami When our characters are resurrected by Neow, don't they effectively have amnesia? Only reason I ask is because I feel like the implications of @Dark Cloud's character is that he has collected knowledge and experience.

I really like the idea of an adventurer wanting to map the place out rp-wise, but to me it feels like the notion of guiding others to escape is not plausible (for multiple reasons) and also wouldn't have mastered or explored with memory of anything. Especially with the mysterious and twisted nature of the shifting Spire. Now the delusion of doing a lot of good would be grand, however.

[Dark Cloud]

@Lucky Well if you actually read my sheet (Which I'm sure you have) you would have also noticed how I mentioned that he hasn't succeeded in reaching the second level of the Spire, and that he is driven to explore the ever changing geography of the Spire in his quest to understand the cursed place. He is unaware that he is doomed to fail.

[Lucky]

I appreciate the explanation, I like to just make sure the setting and characters align so we're all on the same page. My concern wasn't that he wants to do great things, simply that he may not have knowledge of previous experiences thus no aspiration to beat an obstacle that he wouldn't be aware of otherwise.

I know ultimately it falls to the GM's discretion. I don't mean to rock the boat because I know I don't have any power or say over anyone else here, especially the story or world. All I meant was to offer some input while at the same time clearing up my own expectation.

Also I'm sure this wasn't your intention but reading this felt really condescending:

@Lucky Well if you actually read my sheet (Which I'm sure you have) you would have also noticed...

@Dark Cloud

I mean, I did read your CS, several times. I like the character. If I misunderstood anything, I apologize. It wasn't clear to me and was what prompted that last message.

[Dark Cloud]

@Lucky I was admittedly a little aggravated by your comment at the time but I didn't have the intention to sound condescending and I am sorry for letting my frustration boil over into what I was trying to explain. I am genuinely sorry if I offended you in any way as I'm sure you weren't trying to get me angry, and your question was only asked with the best of intentions.

[Lucky]

Well hey, sounds like to me we're all good on that front! I really appreciate your understanding.

[Dark Cloud]

@Lucky Your welcome, I'm just glad we don't harbor any ill will towards each other.

[Whoami]

Well I'm happy to see this resolved upon coming home for the night. lol

Again, I'll get into detail on all of this on the weekend. I appreciate the patience! So far things are looking good!

EDIT: I'm gonna be quite quiet tonight and tomorrow. Slipped on ice as I was heading into work today and screwed my neck a bit. A headache and pinched nerve make me want to take it easy and avoid too much time in front of a screen.

EDIT EDIT: It's not a concussion
