[ShamelessPandering]You are a most wise GM. It si wonderful , in this dystopian day and age, to see such an affluent, perceptive, understanding, and gifted GM , giving it her all ,and really understanding the needs of the players.[/ShamelessPandering]

Flattery will get you everywhere, my dear. 1 CSP for knowing when to play it up. wink.gif

Let that be a lesson to you all: Bribery Works.

NEIT (Night; Female): Known by her title, "The Huntress". She was said to have been the ruler of the lower heavens, and was patron to not only the hunt and warfare, but to the domestic arts and mysticism as well. She was also protectress of women and marriage. Since her primary responsibilities were concerned with hunting, Neit is an excellent name for your fearless nocturnal mouser, particularly given its pronunciation.

Char is male but I think thats a suitable name smile.gif
Lady Door
I like it. Where does it come from?
fistandantilus4.0
Sounds pretty cool . You've obviously put some thought in to it, which is great. What race were you going for?

Edit: As a general to everyone getting in on the game, we ususally do a msn chat woith the people we're gaming with online. For one , it makes communication much faster. Secondly, it's nice to actually know the people you're gaming with a bit more. My msn info is on my user profile here on DS.
Tashio
Egyptian goddess. Night is the pronunciation.

Was thinking human but maybe elf might be a better choice, they tend to have a more catty feel to them.
Lady Door
Racial choice is up to you. So far we have a troll Face and an elven street sam/stealth specialist type.
Callidus
Judging by what people seem to be building, I'm leaning towards the Human ex-KE washout runner is looking good.... I'll have a hack at the number and background and try to get something over to you before the weekend (away for weekend unfortunately). What's the available limit for gear and cyber etc, the standard 8?
fistandantilus4.0
AFAIK. We're still lacking in the tech dept a bit looks like.
Callidus
Hmm, can probably make him techie(ish) but will probably be more combat than tech and certain nowhere near a full scale rigger, hacker or technomancer..... plus I've not got my head round any of the matrix stuff in 4ed yet *8->

Amen Brother!
Meriss
Um, Are you still taking players Plan B? I've got a couple of concepts, half finished builds running around somewhere in my skull.

Concepts:
Elven Con Artist: "Clean" Charlie Whitmore
Human Club Kid turned Runner: Rave

Lemme know.
fistandantilus4.0
heehee, you might need to run a second concurrent game. That's a lot of players. 7 that have asekd so far
Lady Door
Okay everyone... let me know who's in and who's out so I can lock down the game with what we have.
Meriss, check back with us tomorrow to see what we have. If everyone does end up playing that would put us at 6 players and I think that might be too many to handle. If not, we would love to have ya.
So... everyone else... let me know. smile.gif Thanks.
Grinder
One for the BttF-crowd and one for the other? wink.gif

Game, I mean.
Meriss
Oh I don't care. I've got One game running "I am The Law" here, another waiting on some players in another forum. I just need an attrocious amount of mental stimulation, to keep me from getting bored.

@Plan B: Agreed
fistandantilus4.0
I'm tellin' ya, run two games. smile.gif

@ Meriss: I know the feeling
Lady Door
Why do you hate me? You barely talked me into doing this one.. what would make you think that I'm ready to do two games?

Though there was this Cape Town game I wanted to run... wink.gif
fistandantilus4.0
Talk to Tashio smile.gif
Meriss
Now now, we don't want our first SR Caused Divorce. wink.gif
Lady Door
LOL..

If I may direct your attention to my 'title' on DS. Nuff' said.

Meriss
Heh I try to help. Hit em upside the head with a pillow, while wearing a negligee. If that doesn't work, declare him legally dead. cool.gif End of problem.
Lady Door
HAHAHAHAHA...

*looks for pillow*
fistandantilus4.0
..... I like the first one better...

QUOTE (fistandantilus3.0)
well as far as I know, we're following all our standard house rules ,which includes the SR Comp qualiites.

Care to elaborate on those for people interested in taking a dive into your world? Also, what are csp? I'll be reading IWTF shortly, so anything included in there I'll probably figure out.
fistandantilus4.0
Here is the OOC listing for IWTF. It explains Common Sense Points.

As for the SR comp, what you're allowed to use out of there is the edges/flaws and the metavariant races and ghouls types.

Fastball
Thanks, and good idea.
fistandantilus4.0
Thanks for saying so. smile.gif
Lady Door
Hey ya'll. I added a few places and people of interest to the Miami introduction post. Check 'em out. smile.gif

First ideas to Sunny.

[ Spoiler ]
fistandantilus4.0
Cool, now we've got a cook, two ex-cops, and two compulsice gamblers. Not to mention an emergency medic. I love the restaurant idea. How old is the char?
Lady Door
Emergency Medic? Did I miss something?
fistandantilus4.0

Lady Door
Oh... right. Sorry. Didn't mean to slow ya down.. carry on.

Nice background, Tash. 5 CSP. I especially like how you describe the way that you "find" Cat.. or more apropos... how Cat finds you. smile.gif

Sunny was born 2040, so he's 31. Maybe I make him a bit older, not sure about it yet.
Parents are likely to be in their early 50 when they're elves. Damn, that mean Sunny can't be much older than 31.
Meriss
So are you full then Plan B?
fistandantilus4.0
Meriss : Relaying from Plan B

We're at 6, you would make seven, so it's pretty full up. She wasn't expecting htis much response so fast. She's said that she's working on a second game already though, in Cape Town, and magic heavy. So I'm thinking that means you get first billing there if you're interested.
Meriss
Hmm That might be nice. I would be interested, but I'll have to redo some of my char concepts. I stink on ice at making convincing African characters. (although Rave could work in almost any ethnicity) I don't want to make her lose sleep over it though. I'm quite happy in my current game, so tell her that if she wants to ease into it, I'm willing to wait.
Lady Door
LOL.. remember that Cape Town is a port city. You could be from anywhere. Thanks for being so cool with it. The Cape Town game is something I've wanted to do for awhile... with it's exotic location, constant civil unrest, awesome dragon-ness. I'm so on it. biggrin.gif
fistandantilus4.0
At least write up the back ground. We have a high mortality rate going on in IWTF. maybe we could squeeze you in there. The concept sounded interesting for the character.
Meriss
Cool fist, where do you want me to post Rave's background? I don't want to clutter up this thread.

Plan B: Sounds like fun, count me in when you're ready to roll.
Lady Door
Sorry.. I have the Camp Town races song stuck in my head now and it's distracting me from posting...

.. go ahead and post it here. I can copy and paste it to the other thread once I start it.
Meriss
Alright Plan B you're the boss lady. Later today ok? My char notes are still in my skull and I don't want to be interupted typing them on this public comp.

....do dah, do dah, Camptown races five miles long, OH de do dah day!
(I couldn't resist! smile.gif)
Lady Door
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

*runs screaming away*

wink.gif Sounds good. Yes, you must keep your precious character away from public, prying eyes. You never know who may be watching...

the dragons are everywhere...
Tashio
Yea and she has me to bug about Cape Town and South Africa in general smile.gif

Find the IWTF OOC thread. Follow the link I posted on here to the general House rules, including the Common Sense Points. Put it on there please.

The heading for the OOC is "New Orleans"
Lady Door
Okay... so just to summarize... the game will start as soon as I get everyone's characters either posted or PM'd to me. Let's all shoot for sometime today or tomorrow, soka?
