Heroes, Inc - Heroic Mercs in FR OOC Thread

[Keia]

Is there a new thread . . . I thought this game had stalled. My bad!

As for Crimson, her seer abilities are suited to the city and she packs some power with her versitility and energy attacks. It's difficult to play a character of few words in a play by post, but I wanted to give it a shot. She relates well with Fin, but not really with anyone else. One of the few she would have spent a significant amount of time with died in the attacks (the other seer).

As for finding her spot in the universe, that's a good question . . . I'm certain something will develop - if I can think of a specific push, I'll drop a line.

. . . . as for an ooc talk . . . haven't heard.

off to try and find a new IC thread!

One possible idea to engage Shando and Kaarlo would be to include more skill checks (traps, sneaking about, gather information, jump, climb... etc.). They should have mad skills that could highlight their value to the group.

Its probably a pain for you to run, but when we were separate and had our own little missions it forced everyone to stay involved.

As far as I'm concerned, things are going well. I'm happy with my role within the group. I like the budding relationship with Aleena. The deep plot has my head spinning...

Keep up the good work DM_Matt!!

I'm enjoying this game alot. Alethia and her relationship with her demon is progressing fairly well and I have a feeling the time when he reveals himself to her is coming close.

As for other relationships, I think her relationship with Timmy is probably along the lines of brother-sister, or something very close to that. When she gets that exalted feat Nimbus of light, it's going to confuse alot of people and beings.

Found the IC thread and posted.

Did we sell the equipment from the last battle? Crimson is still looking for a movement type equipment (Flying or some kind) or better AC with either the money left over from the sale or even using some of the equipment.

...And what ever happened to that OOC relationship talk RE Fin and Crimson?

I doubt Hannah would be impressed!

It was Arundel who was casting the Commune... he was the one thinking about slipping a question onto the list

Lately, there has been a drop-off in posts, especially among certain people. I want to fix that, so I guess I should ask why. Is it just that certian characters are more suited to combat and show up at those times but not the planning sessions, or is it that theere is not enough engagement of the characters' individual aspects in the plot?

Fin has the formal leadership role, Timrin has his cool sword and increasing personal ties to Aleena, Alethia has her inner demon, Dyria is finally going to get to kill a whole lot of slavers and free some slaves, Murdoch sort of had a fey thing, altohugh that focused less on him in practice than I had hoped.

Is there anytinhg I can do, especailly for Shando, Crimson, Kaarlo, and Murdoch, but also those that are more engaged, to personalize matters a bit more around the characters? Is there sometihng you want THEM to do but need the universe to give 'em a nudge?

BTW, regarding Shando, I am somewhat stumped as to waht to do. Mechanics are a real problem fpr him becuase with the exception of some pretty exotic builds like non-human high racial str/size battlefield controllers and VoP'ers, monks arent the best at much of anything. The character is well-defined and characterized, with his extreme lawful bent quite apparent in his businesslike demeanor and heavy emphasis on duty, but I havent yet come up with a good way of leveraging that for the plot.

Guys,

Sorry for not posting. I use bookmarks to go to my game threads (i.e. I never go to "playing the game"), and didn't see any activity so I assumed everybody was taking a breether. Please let me catch up and I'll post ASAP.

Concerning my character, I have to say that I'm pretty satisfied with him. At the beginning, I had trouble envisioning how his leadership feat played out with the fact that his alignment was CG. It's all good now: basically, Fin's the leader and Murdoch attracts his followers through his charisma and his actions.

Now, it would be interesting to play out Murdoch's "fey" connection. It's the first time I play a warlock and am still getting used to the fact that can repeatedly deliver a HUGE amount of damage, but aren't really good at much else (I'll try to find a more versatile incantation at next level). Anyways, since we've contacted Emberron a few time, it'd be nice to see Murdoch usefulness be more than just being a flying canon. Maybe the Seelie court could call upon the ancient pact made by his ancestor and request a service or maybe just increase the connection so they know what our group is up to (we are acting in their interest, after all).

Cheers,

SG

Well if you would just tell me the entire plot in complete detail, I am sure I can give you some ideas regarding Shando's part. Let me get caught up and I'll tell you where I may see Shando going.
