[OOC] Torn Across the Rift

[Affili]

*pokes the ooc for signs of life* Someone tell me about their weekend! Whos birthday was it? Good luck on your midterms everyone!

[Viridity]

I'm currently enjoying getting nothing done since it's spring break, so I did very little other than play videogames.

I'll get a post up tomorrow, starting to get some ideas now.

Heyooo.

They are still very 'well rounded' characters. They had a lot of strengths and few to no weaknesses.

For example, the fist one can throw daggers, AND heal themselves, AND telekinesis...

The second can do magic such as throw fireballs, AND sword-fight with a huge sword and armor, AND summon a variety of minions.

A party member should be part of a whole. Try to think of a more specific niche for each character. People and characters are imperfect, but, together they balance one another out, or create drama, which is what is fun to play.

So even through you lessened the powers a bit, they are still a bit too vague and all encompassing. Try to narrow each character.

The first one, make her a knife-thrower, OR a telecenitic, OR a healer.

The second, make her a minion summoner (of one type of minion), OR a mage, OR a knight.

OR not AND.

Then you will be on the same level as everyone else I think.

@Eyeris

The Overlord one was based on the games. She can swing a sword and is stronger than her minions but not by much and she's very slow. Not to mention she's supposed to be one of the bad guys.

As for my Psionicist, throwing the knives are part of her Telekinesis. And she can only heal herself, not others, and only by meditating, which takes a long time. In combat, all she can do is use her Telekinesis to throw her knives, keep a "mental radar" open to see where everyone is and, if necessary, give herself a limited physical boost or turn her hands/arms into bladed weapons. The rest of her abilities are out of combat and some of them take a long time to use. She's mainly based around the Psionic powers of AD&D 2E.

@Belwicket

It is fine if she is a badguy, she still needs to be on par with the rest of the party. Maybe describe her weaknesses more in the CS? it isn't apparent.

Send me a PM if you like ^_^ I love works shopping characters!

[cpldingo]

Thought I would give some comic relief.

Since Hirsch is going to be a continuing character should I make up a CS for him?

[Eyeris]

If you want him to be he can be your second ^_^

[Eyeris]

Mkay, so, everyone is in the conference room.

The purpose of this scene, is to get all the characters 'up to speed' and given the same information about the rift & such. Untie the team! woohooo!

[Viridity]

Post coming this weekend, have some stuff going on until then that'll probably keep me from posting.

[Viridity]

Having a sudden case of writer's block, and homework. I'll give it another shot tomorrow, otherwise just pass on me.

[Belwicket]

Me and josh are chatting about it :D

[Eyeris]

Hey Bel!

We are into the shifter, but, not the overlord. We are going to PM you to figure out how to get her into the crew! :D

PM pending with more details.

[Belwicket]

@Eyeris Switched out my Overlord character for an Earthbender.

[Eyeris]
