[OOC] Champions of Thedas - Dragon Age RP

[SimplyJohn]

@SimplyJohn
Is it fine for me to rework my characters bio?

@booksmusicanime

Yes. Until we actually start the adventure everyone's free to tweak and refine their characters, or totally replace them if needs be.

Once we do start however I'd ask any changes made to either be minor or involve some plot event within the story itself to explain the change. For instance we may run across an old hermit who is a master in the art of Fire magics, who'd then be able to teach our Mages some of his knowledge, allowing them to develop a new specialisation. Or we could just kill him and steal his secret scrolls to learn the specialisations ourselves.

@Genni That is true about most things, but people rarely have enough lube on hand for that to be a option

@Saarebas

And yet we always seem to have more than enough guns. We really need to start investigating our production priorities if we ever want to give peace a chance.

@SimplyJohn

I mean, lubing a barrel is lubing a barrel.

[vancexentan]

Just a quick note in regards to fire magic in which my character is extremely proficient in that field.

@vancexentan

I only chose Fire magic as an example. If we ever do run into anyone who'd be able to offer training tips, I'll be sure they'll be able to offer prizes for everyone. :)

@SimplyJohn Hey Boss I like the new character and all, but I have to point out she would be like Paxton and Cas, a Half-Elf or Elf-Blooded. She would look human and for the most part be considered one

[Adorabadass]

I like Nighthawk. :D She's kinda badass, and she has a cool fighting style.

@Saarebas

'Nighthawk' will be a plot point rather than a player character. Her exact nature and true history will be revealed over time, should you find the right clues in the right places.

For now all I'll say is that she has a strong tie to Martin, or at least he has a strong tie to her.

[Saarebas]

@SimplyJohn Meh I was just pointing something out, gotta make sure no one starts giving us Half-Elves a bad name you know XD

[SimplyJohn]

Like those pesky N-Elfs and B-Elfs you mean? :P

[booksmusicanime]

@SimplyJohn
Is it okay if I give Lian a pet Nug who's just there as Lian's pet.

Also it sucks when you're watching a livestream and the livestreamer names a character in the game after you then that you're the character thart is the first character to die who isn't cannon fodder.

[Saarebas]

@SimplyJohn You have no idea

EDIT: Side note I am currently drawing a blank when it comes to thinking up a quest for the group

[Adorabadass]

We could find an old associate of Fredrick or his sister. In the former case, that could lead to any old quest. In the latter, could point Freddy toward where his sister might be.

[booksmusicanime]

I'm thinking maybe Lian learns something of her sister and it starts a quest of tracking down like her Dalish camp and saving her sister or something like that.

@booksmusicanime

Sure, just as long as we get to roast it if we start running low on provisions. >D

EDIT: Side note I am currently drawing a blank when it comes to thinking up a quest for the group

@Saarebas

You should try to think of something your character would either want to find or need help with, and then think of a way to convince the rest of the group to follow you there. The best way to do that is to consider what your character would need in the long-term in order to improve themselves in some way, achieve their long-term ambitions or what would suit their personalities and motivations.

If you have any problems feel free to PM me for a few pointers. And that goes for the rest of you too. :)

@Adorabadass

You could just combine the two, and have it an old associate of Fred's has given him a lead to tracking down his sister. Any idea where that might be taking place? Rivain, Tevinter, Nevarra, The Free Marches?

I'm thinking maybe Lian learns something of her sister and it starts a quest of tracking down like her Dalish camp and saving her sister or something like that.

@booksmusicanime

Tracking down a migrant Dalish clan sounds a little difficult, and definitely something we could build up into a full quest. Again, any ideas exactly where you'd like to go with that?

[booksmusicanime]

@SimplyJohn
I think that would cause Lian to fight because the Nug was given to her by her sister.

@booksmusicanime

That's better, now the nug is more than just a prop, it's a plot device. :D

[booksmusicanime]

@SimplyJohn
Yup and you can read her improved bio because I just finished it. Now to reward myself with more ice cream!

[Genni]

That's better, now the nug is more than just a prop, it's a plot device. :D

@SimplyJohn

Don't tell me, there's gonna be a side quest where the bug runs off into the forest and we have to find it quickly before the local poachers do?

[Saarebas]

"We have to find sniffles quick, they are going to make nug nuggets out of him!"

[SimplyJohn]

@Saarebas

Martin: "Damn, if they do that what'll we have for dinner?"
