Alrighty then. I'll be sure to do that.
Before I do though, there's something I need to know. What skin color do goblins typically have?
Green, green's da best.

You want more'n a thousand words out of me then I'd advise my hourly rate might be more reasonable than the per-word.

Alright, concept decided for next convention RP: your unit is charged with testing a prototype necromech with a mysterious new component in the war against the vampires.
Bio
Lifetime GM. I run horror, dark fantasy, sci-fantasy. All players welcome, as long as you engage with the material.
You can, I think, tell a lot about me based on my blog
I will reference Disco Elysium and no one can stop me.

I've been making my CS in Google Docs using an emptied copy of one of the sample sheets. Is the template you're working on notably different from the samples?
Not especially, no, so if you just want to link to that or something it's fine by me
Intentionally doing so would be one of the few things to get a death penalty.
EDIT: If someone did it and fled, the High Fane would be willing to pay for some very expensive bounty hunters.

My existing code doesn't work here and I hate finagling code but I'll hammer it into a functional sheet in a day or two.
Also I should have a character sheet template somewhere; I'll find and post it soon.
I guess I don't get my Necroship dreams ^^
What say you, Rush? Skeleton crew? Ghost of pirate possessing the hull?
Since we're on the topic of tone, what atmosphere are we aiming for? Reading through the provided information it all seems to aim for a more serious tone but that could of course just come across that way because it is informational text written to relay lore and rules. So are we going for a serious tone? A comical tone? Or horror-esque and "doom be upon us"? Etc..?
That depends a bit on characters and character motivations, but I tend to go for a serious tone with moments of levity and horror elements.
Ever see Black Sails? Not a bad match, tonally; dark with political realities and personal strife, but some really funny or tender moments. Or...
You might say I would like if we, as players, took the game and setting seriously but the characters are under no obligation to do so.
Does that make sense? I'm trying to think of some other media comparisons that match the tone I tend to go for. The Boys is going too far... Sandman-adjacent, maybe? Some of the later Discworld novels like Night Watch?

I was thinking of having a pirate ship. And when I say pirate ship, I don't mean a ship that is run by pirates, I mean a ship that is a pirate. A very stereotypical pirate, who constantly says "Avast!" and "Arr!" and other piratey things, is quick to break into musical sky shanties about plundering booty and drinking rum, and always eagerly advocates for making any and all captives walk the plank.
That is significantly sillier than I was aiming for, tonally. Not entirely sure I'd have the patience to write it.
