Malvoisin's Savage Tide OOC Thread *Resurrected*

[Leinart]

Yea I read the guide a little yesterday...But I see what you mean about the tone and all. So id probly use a human merc from the champions district who works for the zelkarune horns. Just make him CG or CN and he could fit in with most of the group. And yeah he'd be using a two handed weapon

A paladin could work, but we have not been crusading against evil and he would have to be able to get along with the rest of the scalawags in the party.

The two with the most potential conflicts IMO would be Mad Col who deals with occult dark knowledge and Kalen who is quite . . . fanciful with his descriptions.

I think for the most part we're quite GOOD.

LAWFUL, on the other hand. . .

I echo the sentiments of all the players who have posted, Leinart. They know what they're looking for, and as it so happens, I agree.

Tell me more about your fighter idea. Give me a feel for his personality, his combat style, and most importantly, a good hook for him to get introduced to the other characters. How would he come to join up with them?

Your best resources will be the player's guide, and this game so far. To be honest, I'm mostly interested in your ideas as to how to integrate your character into the game, and introduce him/her to the existing party members. Working out the build won't be difficult, I'm sure.

Do you mean integrating our characters into the city, or into the story? Because while I could come up with a place for them in the city, I'm afraid it'd take me a very long time to read through 28 pages of IC, unless someone instead provides a synopsis.

...someone instead provides a synopsis.

Mad Col, after piecing together some important clues, saves the world with minor assistance from a gang of scallywags. The End.

Can work on a better summary later.

Hmm, fair enough. Maybe stonegod will be kind enough to provide a (real) summation. Or someone else may do it... Then again, I could always do it myself, if I can scrape together the time. We'll see what can be worked out, Jdvn1. I have to agree, it's kind of a steep entry barrier...and possibly a reason why more people haven't shown interest.

I was thinking a new person could integrate themselves with the characters via the RG posts. The IC posts are basically what we've been up to since taking a job, and since we were basically alone for most of the important bits, it's not neccessary to read it all. Fun though.

But if you read the backgrounds for the current PCs, you get an idea of histories and personalities to work with.

Good idea, hafrogman. Perhaps one of our PCs knows a scallawag of a fighter that we can bring in for some additional muscle.

That's a good idea.

I'm hoping that I haven't created an insurmountably difficult obstacle in asking prospective players to familiarize themselves with the game. I'm a little surprised that there hasn't been much response to my call for a replacement. :\

 

[Malvoisin]

btw,

I'm kind of waiting to see what Kalen wants to do before moving the party back to the entrance to the tunnels.

And, I'm assuming that Keoni is going to try and move those rocks off the trap door, too, so if that's not right, hafrogman, feel free to post otherwise.
