Session Start: Sun Jul 27 00:39:32 2003 Session Ident: FiatVictrix [00:39] Session Ident: FiatVictrix (Fiat@dsc03-ati-ga-4-32.rasserver.net) [00:39] Going to get done with RPG stuff entirely as breather? Or do you feel like talking a minute about the possible setup for Keyn's game in a while? [00:40] eh... it's looking REAL bad. he is scheduling it exactly when I have classes. [00:40] ouch. [00:40] Too bad. It was a very nifty idea. [00:40] indeed. [00:41] I mean, when I have five hours of classes, and he schedules the first hour of game for my first hour of classes, that is hard to commit to. [00:41] * GoldenH does not see any reason to attempt to change this. [00:42] Really, my questions were going to just be "What does the character look like, clothing and fighting style?" to be able to design the char so as to be different. [00:42] * FiatVictrix shrugs. Minus the DB setup, there's no real reason for me to mess around with it. It was a bit many games, the concept just made it worth the troubel. [00:42] trouble, even. [00:42] especially as I begin to have classes again. [00:45] indeed. [00:46] * GoldenH doesn't even know. [00:46] it's a fucking stretch for me to design a DB pirate. [00:46] Heh. Really? [00:46] * GoldenH would HAVE to go supercargo on this one. [00:47] .... supercargo? [00:49] ok..... you have crew, right? [00:49] crew is a bunch of sailors. [00:49] sailors, are a rule, are good at sailing. [00:49] but you wouldn't want them to mow the lawn. [00:49] so, you need someone to mow the lawn when it's important [00:50] if it is really important, you hire someone to mow the lawn. [00:50] that's a supercargo. [00:50] they are cargo... but they are actually doing work. [00:50] Ahhhh. [00:50] Hell, my char would be supercargo. [00:50] Just trade mowing the lawn for "Killing people". [00:51] well, being the slave of the supercargo would mean you would be the supercargo too. [00:51] generally it applies to the accountents, translators, mathematicians (for making new routes), and the like. [00:51] * FiatVictrix nods. It's truly an amusing concept. [00:51] they do the white-collard work on a ship. [00:52] generally disrespected by everyone except the captain. [00:52] So, the DB would be white collar? [00:52] right. [00:52] Freaky. [00:52] can't be bothered to kill people. [00:52] ABYSSAL! [00:52] kil lthem! [00:52] * FiatVictrix must make Keyn change the time. [00:53] * GoldenH dunnos. even if time changes, it's a hard character concept. [00:53] Then we could get in a couple of hours at least... [00:53] Eh, you could pull it off. [00:54] You'd just need to select what kind of white collar Blooded. [00:54] indeed. [00:54] it's a mystey. [00:54] craft? no. minstrel/dancer? no. maybe a poet? [00:55] * FiatVictrix thinks Translator is probably best... [00:55] yea, translator is good. [00:55] Linguistics/lore. [00:55] but then... why am I not being an air aspect? [00:55] Why is warrior Jynaru not a Fire? [00:55] * GoldenH 's done the air aspect, done the earth aspect. [00:55] Water aspect is obvious. [00:55] Fire would actually work well... [00:56] i'm honestly leaning towards fire. [00:56] socialize for negotiating. [00:56] Ath and dodge to get you the hell out of the way. [00:56] * GoldenH nods [00:56] presence is also good. [00:57] definately presence over performance. [00:57] Then just go and tag linguistics, lore, and sail/bureacracy. [00:57] supercargos were the nerds of the seas. [00:57] Male or female? [00:58] leaning towards male. [00:58] * FiatVictrix nods. [00:58] it's interesting.... [00:58] I really do go through seasonal cycles. [00:59] or maybe i just got being a girl out of my system. [00:59] I'm likely to go with brawl/melee, presence/resistance/ath/dodge and something else... [01:00] * GoldenH shrugs. anybody whose anybody gets the second charm in the MA tree. [01:00] Not sure whether to tag endurance, occult, or lore. [01:00] Eh, I'm going brawl. [01:00] look at it. [01:00] hell, go brawl. it halves all their defensive dice pools. [01:01] put them in a MA clinch [01:01] of course, they do have te perfect attack brawl clinch. [01:01] it's kinda hard to decide. [01:01] * FiatVictrix sees it. It's TOO wonky. [01:01] And it doesn't even work with weapons. [01:01] heh [01:01] I'm happy with the brawl tree, I have other stuff to use with melee. [01:02] * GoldenH supposes so. [01:02] particularly the attunement breaker and the thieving raiton claws bit. [01:02] * GoldenH nods. [01:04] * FiatVictrix is reminded of Brotherhood of the Wolf... [01:05] with Abyssal as the NAmerican guy and the DB as the dude who... dammit... [01:05] The stuffing the animals? [01:05] Taxidermist! [01:05] taxidermist? that's a good job. [01:05] Yeah. The guy traveled across the world and studied animals and plants. [01:06] sounds cool. [01:06] kinda supercargoy. [01:06] He did taxidermy for the King's nature gardens and museum. [01:06] * GoldenH could be all dr-frankenstine like [01:06] "MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA!" [01:06] The story is that the king wants the super-wolf terrorizing the countryside stuffed and mounted for the gardens. [01:06] "MWAHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHA!" [01:06] "It's alive!" [01:07] "Undead." [01:07] "Damint! I told you not to cast necromancy around here!" [01:07] "I didn't. It followed me back." [01:07] "Well.. kill it!" [01:08] hmmm... tag survival.... feed on animals for blood feast... [01:08] that's good. then we can go hunting for big fish. [01:08] gives me an excuse to be watery. [01:08] * FiatVictrix considers. [01:09] maybe de-tag resistance, go occult and survival... [01:09] * GoldenH suddenly imagines a celestial version of taht spell that lets you go into the labyrinth... big enough for a whole ship? ^_^ [01:09] de-tag presence, resistance+occult+survival+ath+dodge? [01:09] Daaaamn.... the unkillable. [01:10] you don't need presence.... in fact is bad for you to be presenceful [01:10] I have an extreme fondness for the damage dealing in my presence. [01:10] Also, I should be scary. [01:11] hmph. hard to be discreet when scary. Do I have to put you on a leash whenever we go to the brothel? [01:11] I need some presence to back up my killing people in astounding ways. [01:11] * FiatVictrix blinks. [01:11] You're going to take. [01:11] An Abyssal. [01:11] To a brothel? [01:11] [01:11] I think I will be intelligence 1 [01:11] * FiatVictrix is again reminded of that scene... [01:12] Indian dude is at the brothel. [01:12] Girl freaks out because she thinks his tattooes are alive... [01:12] * FiatVictrix is greatly amused. [01:13] * GoldenH is stealing scenes from a movie i never saw? sweet. [01:13] Won't it be hard to do craft-taxidermy minus the int? [01:13] no.. high wits. [01:13] * FiatVictrix 'd think low perception or wits, not low int. [01:13] how low perception? need to make detailed drawings and incisions for taxidermy. [01:13] You should check out brotherhood of the wold. [01:13] maybe [01:13] wold? Aie. [01:14] Wolf. [01:14] * FiatVictrix loves loves loves the whipsword. [01:14] whipsword? [01:15] take a sword. [01:16] cut it into segments. [01:16] Connect each segment with a cord/chain. [01:16] use magic to let the chain lengthen and shorten to go from sword-form to a segmented whip. [01:16] whipsword. [01:16] oh that [01:16] Ivy uses one in soul calibur, the fight at the end has one. [01:17] how many times I have to say MONOFILIMENT SWORD BAD [01:17] NOT MONOFILIMENT! [01:17] i knwo [01:17] in this case, it's carved bone, and you just ignore how the connections work. [01:18] it looks like you're using a fish skeleton as a sword. [01:18] * FiatVictrix loves him some whipsword. [01:18] heh. [01:18] Only far, far cooler and stunty. [01:19] I dunno, i think a fish skleton would be damn stuny [01:19] stunty [01:20] bah. Not magically extendable/flexible. [01:20] sure it is, just make it a magic fish skeleton [01:20] * FiatVictrix now has to use bone weapons with hungry ghosts trapped inside, you know. [01:20] yes [01:20] mammoth bone clubs, great cat tooth spears, siaka-teeth set in whalebone.... [01:21] with a hungry ghost in each tooth. [01:22] mmmmmm [01:22] I was pleased by the Hammer & Klaive werewolf supplement text stuff [01:23] I think that will be an excellent book to steal for Exalted [01:23] all kinds of stuff like that [01:23] * GoldenH needs to actually read it. it might be horrible but the ad looked perfect Session Close: Sun Jul 27 01:25:52 2003
