The Dead Alewives
Purpose: The Dead Alewives is a group of Awakened teenagers dedicated to furthering their magical potential through playing the Advanced Dungeons & Dragons game. Group Avatar: Artificer Members: 6 Strictures: Attendance, Geasa (see below), Limited Membership (geeks only) Resources/Dues: Squatter. No dues. Patron: None Description and Customs: Childhood friends, the original five members formed the Dead Alewives shortly after hitting puberty and Awakening. Through gradual experimentation, they discovered that their favorite activity, Advanced Dungeons & Dragons, provided an excellent vehicle for the expression of their Gifts. Now seniors in high school, the Dead Alewives take the occaisional (very) low level shadowrun to finance the purchase of old AD&D products. Each member must attend at least one gaming session per week, which is held at a member's home or in the basement of the high school. The focus on roleplaying has had an unfortunate side effect: members may only use their powers when dressed "in character". In addition, adept members may not use their abilities in conjunction with modern technology, such as commlinks or firearms. Graham (aka Dungeonmaster, aka DM, the group's "face") "If YOU can't remember, then your CHARACTER can't remember!" Human Physical Adept Eidetic Sense Memory Analytics Cool Resolve Multi-Tasking Scott (aka Gallstaff, Sorcerer of Light) "I wanna cast magic missile!" Human Hermetic Mage Magic Missile (Powerbolt with Light elemental effect) Detect Magic Friendship (Control Emotions) Ring of Charms (Spellcasting focus, Manipulation) Greg "Well, it says...it says I have blue eyes, but I decided I want gray eyes." Elven Hermetic Mage Greg refers to summoning his watcher spirits as "casting Mordenkainen's Magical Watchdog". Mark (aka Picard, the Elven Ranger) "Graham, you're confuthing her!" Elven Mystic Adept dental braces Locate Person (Detect Individual) Improved Sense (Direction Sense, Image Magnification) Improved Ability (Archery) Animal Empathy Jeremy (aka Nightblade, the Halfling Thief) "Heyheyhey, look who brought the Mountain Dew!" Midget Elven Physical Adept obese from overindulgence in Cheetos, Funyuns, and Mountain Dew Combat Sense Enhanced Perception Improved Ability (Infiltration) Traceless Walk Nimble Fingers Ogre Slaying Knife (Weapon Focus, Geas: only useful against opponents larger than Jeremy himself) Sarah (aka Titania, girlfriend of Mark, newest member) "I don't know what any of this stuff means." Human Physical Adept Combat Sense Counterstrike Improved Reflexes Improved Ability (Blades) Theme Music, Courtesy of 8 Bit Entertainment (with apologies to the Beatles): Hey, dude Don't make it bad Take your playstyle, and make it better Remember, to let it into your heart Then you can start to roleplay better Hey, dude Don't be afraid You were made to play your role better The minute you're in your character's skin Then you'll begin to roleplay better |
