I just want to reiterate a few things moving forward so there are no surprises.
The assumed damage of special abilities will be Lethal, these are dangerous and powerful abilities and using them against an unarmed person can and probably will kill them. This isn’t a game where the heroes can just “pull” their punches and switch the damage to non lethal, it’s like a firearms you shoot someone with a normal gun you will probably kill them or injure them quite seriously.
Much of the events should be character driven, meaning that I am going to tailor events, storylines, and even NPC’s to the characters. If you show interest in something either OOC or IC, please let me know either by showing interest in game or making a note OOC that this is something you would like to explore.
I will not force any character to explore their lost memories if you decide you don’t want to know and focus on the present I can adjust. Some things for the flow of the story will happen, and I will do my best to not “rail road” anyone, but some things must happen for the flow of the story to make sense.
Don’t focus on the metagame. Don’t assume that your characters know the full extent of their abilities like the player does, in fact they probably don’t know the full extent of them and their capabilities. Metagaming will happen it is the nature of the game, but try to limit it, remember just cause you know that your character can theoretically lift 5000 Tons of stuff at max load does not mean that they should be doing it every scene, or at all unless it is dramatically appropriate.
I don’t want you to feel like you should gimp yourself, I am just saying that these characters know they have abilities but they don’t really know the full extent of what they can do yet, and although may have messed with them at the Estate, their full capabilities are still somewhat a mystery.
Finally rules take a back seat to story, but please let me know if I do something that violates the rules, because as is the case I probably just made a mistake or I am posting at work, where my books are not as accessible.
