Slay the Spire

<Snipped quote by Lucky>

A. It's really just there to annoy everyone; I'll add the stealth idea to it
B. Should I change it, or have no blessing at all?

@LSJ Rose

Ultimately it's your character and your choice. I think the blessing is fine. After considering it all, I'd just move the "curse" aspect of the cardinal up into the blessing. Threatening to take you out of stealthy stuff with the bird feels like a bigger detriment than having the boon of courage, so if you're fine with it I say go for it.

Overall, a cool character that seems to go against the normal archetype (impatient rogue) in a good way.

Fate/Novus Apocrypha - The Ends justify the Means!

@Reflection I appreciate it! I think I'd be better off having someone to work off of as a partner rather than making a character independently, as I don't really know what to expect. That said, I don't mind either role.

Slay the Spire

-Sarina, Cardinal Forged Of Fire--

--Sarina--

--Cardinal Forged Of Fire--

Character Archetype
Rogue

Personality
--What personality does your character tend to naturally adopt the most among their many resurrections?--
Observant, Courageous, Charming
Impatient, Sarcastic, Quarrelsome

Blessings
Courage Of The Fire Cardinal: This blessing gives a temporary boost of courage to anyone who touches the cardinal without fear or hesitation.

Curses
--Does your character have some sort of unholy or eldritch force that detriments them? Like blessings, these are optional. Don't feel the need to make curses absolutely cripple your character... Unless that's what you're going for...--

Cardinal: A bird follows her around, typically found on her shoulder. Not any kind of bird, but a cardinal. Attempting to swat it away or take it off her shoulder only results in it striking back at the attacker. A source for the Courage Of The Fire Cardinal Blessing.

Relics
--Has your character resurrected with a powerful artifact? Relics will be acquired as the RP continues, but I am willing to allow a maximum of one starting relic. Once again, this is optional, and I was ask that if you do take a relic to start, that it isn't overpowered or unreasonable. Try to justify why your character would have this relic upon being resurrected, even if they might not remember why they have it.--
She has none, as of now

Gold

(delete this -->)Your current gold is reflected here as merchants and other denizens of the Spire might be willing to trade with you(<--delete this)

can someone help me with this? ;-;

@LSJ Rose

I like the idea! What is it you're needing help for?

Things I'd like to address briefly:

A. How does the cardinal act as a curse as it sits on her shoulder? Does it whisper insane, old god phrases into her ear? Does it chirp every time she attempts to stealth (definitely a negative as she's a rogue archetype)? Is it a really fat bird and it weighs her down? All that to say without further detriments, I would just move it up from curse and add it to the blessing. Personally I don't think it's powerful enough to warrant a curse unless you want to add more.

B. The blessing almost feels redundant. My initial read was that touching the cardinal would grant courage to someone already courageous. I think I understand it now that if courage is required for a situation and the cardinal is available and amenable, then it would definitely be a boon; e.g. jumping a chasm.

Slay the Spire

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

Slay the Spire

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.

Slay the Spire

@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.

Also displaying tentative interest. I'm not entirely familiar, though I've seen like half a season so I feel like I have a grasp as to what's going on here. Although that being said, I don't know which I'd rather be just yet.

Edit: Looking at the CS, I'm frankly kinda intimidated because I've been reading the wiki for what feels like an hour now and I still don't understand everything lol

Nightland — (modern, paranormal, urban mystery, horror)

I am very interested! If we can call roles to play with, I'd very much like to take the one with vivid nightmares.

Slay the Spire

@Dog Whoa that's completely unexpected lol.

Slay the Spire

@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.
