Character Summary


@Fallenreaper Well, if you count all my 'supporting cast' for my characters.. Yea.

We're on a 3 or 4 character limit here though. ¬_¬
<Snipped quote by NeutralNexus>

Nah. People just don't care about Baba Yaga, Medea, Gwydion, Vainamoinen, Atlantes, The Telchines, etc.


Rasputin
Allistair Crowley (He wasn't strictly said to be a wizard, but in this version he could have been)

Lets not forget a number of Voodoo/Hoodoo Kings and Queens.

I'd definitely make my own though.
<Snipped quote by Tearstone>

Well, somebody was stuck in a collaboration...


Yes, yes I was. Not entirely my fault, but not entirely blameless either. XD
@Hound55 Thanks for the approval. It's still a work in progress. I guess kind of like I had to still tweak things with Justine a little bit, even though she was in her second or third version. I plan on fleshing the equipment out more, I plan on working out the details of supporting cast as well. Right now, he's going to be a face that pops up, I think in Justine's arc. Maybe before getting his own full arc.

Dunno. But I'm glad someone likes. I do kind of want to see if Ded or NMS has anything to weigh in, even though the latter has been ill lately. IT can be hard to get back into the swing sometimes.
Still a work in progress. Mostly ready to go. Not all of the Supporting Characters thing is filled out or used. I'm also hybridizing off this CS format here.

Introducing...



CS Has been Moved


The downside of a big broad sandbox game where virtually anything is possible, is accessibility.

It's one thing for those of us who have been soaking in this tub for a while... we're used to the temperature, newcomers though? Not so easy.

So it's good to have clear accessible entry points for new players to jump on.

I get that it's a bit of a disruption/distraction for those of us in here (although we try to give enough warning that players not only are not put out, but can even take the opportunity and thrive from the break and brief time-skip) but it needn't be a negative.

Comics and tv get that point of accessibility as well... its why they tend to have clearer points for these breaks where plot elements can easily be described for newcomers to get up to speed.


"Last time on <Redacted> ..."

@Natty@Blue Demon@Defacto@GreenGrenade

...and with that said, here's something I think some of you newcomers (and you @Fallenreaper who's contemplating a new character) might want to consider:

One of the upsides of the time skip that comes with the season break is that if you have a new character, but don't want the hassle of going through the minutiae of character development and ALL of the growing pains along the way... and you'd rather use the ol' montage technique to get them up to speed and some level of competency in a hurry...

...Well, you're in luck!

And you can still touch on key moments of that development via flashbacks and other such techniques.

But if part of what you want from your character IS going through all of that minutiae and juicy character detail... then yeah, maybe waiting on Season 2 would be best for you.

Personally, it doesn't affect me either way and it's up to you...

...but it's something to consider.


All of this. I might be doing this for the character I'm working on right now.
