I run several game threads with an average post of once per week, but run for years. This rate is too slow for many players to keep involved, but for those of us who usually post on a scheduled day this works well. Please be sure that this rate appeals to you before asking to be considered. Players who disappear during the *probationary period* find their characters meet with unfortunate accidents or simply get shot in the face, whisked away by elemental or whatever threat happens to be handy. Conversely, players who remain steady are rewarded with a rich, long-term game. Vacations, accidents, Internet connectivity issues occur. If you show us the common courtesy of letting us know when issues occur, we are very understanding.

Currently there are two openings. Skill definitely missing are spell casting. B&E would also be useful as well as some basic combat skills (combat monkeys will probably be bored quickly). The team currently consists of a hacker/face and rigger. I prefer well rounded characters to one trick ponies. Characters who fit the environment will be given higher consideration. If you wish to be considered, please submit a concept first.

As you think through a character, shoot towards 390bp. I will award 10 additional BP to round out the character. You start with the fixer Kilroy for free [ Loyalty =1, Rating =3 ]. You may spend BP to bump up the loyalty to a 2 or 3. Bonus contacts as well as karma for both objective completion as well as consistent posting will be awarded.

Feel free to use PMs as needed as well for clarifications or covert details.

NPC's
Do not assume the actions/reactions of anyone listed as contact. You can take reasonable artistic liberties with non-contact NPCs, but please PM me first if you engage in extended dialog. In the case of assumptions of time passed in travel, NPC reactions, etc I may ask for an edit. In the end, I will try not to impact your creativity where your post doesn't impact my world view.

Dice Rolling
Please use http://invisiblecastle.com/rolldice.py. For character name, please use Puyallup:$character_name. Example: Puyallup:Kilroy
The only rolls I will reserve are perception and assensing rolls. By knowing if the character glitchs or the degree of success, then strategic information may be given away. All others will be made by the players.

Time away from the board
I would like to set an expectation of 1-2 posts per week. Real Life happens though. If a player will be AFK for more than a few days, just post in the OOC and give us a heads up. PM me instructions and I can remote your character in order that the game can continue with your presubmitted actions. (We all know that sometimes you can take a week or two of vacation and still make most of a combat scene)

If you still have openings, I wouldn't be adverse to playing along. Are possession traditions off limits? If not, I was thinking maybe a voudoun mambo, a cajun elf follower of Baron Samedi. If they are off limits, would likely go with a shaman or astaru, based on the needs of the group (astaru for combat mage needs, shaman for general magical needs).

A distinctive aspect of voodoo traditions is that of calling forth the invisibles to possess the body of the summoner or even mundane serviteurs (literally “servants”). These spirit-ridden individuals gain great power at the cost of conscious control over their actions.

Possession mages rate alongside toxic & insect shamans to me. NPC only and hunted.

Atomic Communist - Daniel Parker: B&E Specialist


Satyr - Nick: Dwarven mage


cndblank - Concept pending. In discussion via PM



Satyr/Atomic Communist - Go ahead and run me a more complete history or 20 questions. You can send those in PM to keep that secret if you wish. I have the first pass on a character sheet from Satyr. AC go ahead and provide that as well.

Satyr, can we compare spell lists? With only your spellcasting rating times two in spells we need to make sure we have every thing covered.

Do the existing characters have sheets posted? I'm trying to find my niche. Glad there is an B&E expert. Hard to do the Hardware B&E as a non hermetic spell caster.

Redjack, do you use the house rule where you get your charisma times 2 in free contacts?

I have three running games. Two in the Puyallups and one in Redmond. I may choose not to put the new characters in the same game.

Not that I am aware of.

I do not. Your fixer is free (@Loyalty = 1) I do award contacts for good role playing though.

Redjack, am I still considered in waiting or considered added to the new characters?

Sent you the 20 questions. Just waiting on confirmation on a slot so I can begin work on the sheet itself.

I would prefer one that my kids could read, so I think a PG-13 game is what we are looking for.

I agree with RJ not that my daughter is in any way able to read yet i would like to keep the game Dialogue clean in a sense that i am not pron to a lot of four language or sexual innuendo's that are aparantly inappropriate or vulgar in nature.
