I don't understand, how many extra points can I allocate in the Attributes section? I don't know what 5/4/3 ratio means e: I see it now, sorry Sulla Faex fucked around with this message at 12:46 on Aug 11, 2014 |

I think I did it? http://sheetgen.dalines.net/sheet/35930 There's some stuff I don't understand like you didn't explain what I put for FLAWS, and I don't know what these merits or the keys do etc. I guess if you just tell me what I need to fix and I'll learn as I go. e: Sorry I forgot to specify some stuff about the geist at the bottom.

No that's cool I was just comparing my sheet to BCR's and trying to figure out how the differences mesh with your instructions. Let me know what I need to change, for e.g. I put the 3 'talents' or whatever at the bottom. I don't mind having a gimped character the universe will sort itself out and make everything groovy. Unless my racist genocidal Geist manages to trick me or other people into hosed up knife fights.

To be clear that I'm not loving up the lore or the point of the game, is it acceptable to have a Sin-Eater (?? are we literally eating sins; there's no mention otherwise of judgement or redemption etc) that clashes directly with the personality of the Geist that has brought him back to life? My thinking was that I'd have a weak character who is ostensibly a hippy and peace-loving but who is underneath it all terrified of their own mortality and thus easily tricked by a vicious, manipulative, hate-filled Geist. So while he tries to do the right thing there is still that undercurrent of Geist-borne rage that can take over at critical moments. I don't know I just read the initial thing and decided that it wouldn't be very interesting if there's no conflict between the reborn and the geist.

Computers suddenly become infected with malware, tools break down or slip out of their hand, brakes in cars fail. Any man-made tool they're using becomes useless, so for example equipment that normally gives a bonus (e.g. a cop's polygraph machine, which normally gives +3 to their rolls on interrogation) now give no bonus. The 2-dot version costs the same 1 plasma, but equipment now gives an equivalent penalty rather than bonus (so -3 if the cop uses the polygraph machine). sup BCR how you doin as my ex-girlfriend used to say, bonne chance avec ta voiture before she dropped her ute onto my heart and shattered it forever metaphorically i guess but with this sweet rear end power theres gonna be a lot of dropped utes Sulla Faex fucked around with this message at 14:04 on Aug 11, 2014 |

Oh so it's actually a public/famous thing? It's not like you come back to life reborn and nobody knows you or you deliberately avoid old acquaintances... Weird. Kind of takes the mystery out of it, but I suppose the tropes are a bit lazy.

I'm sorry I don't mean to sound like comic book guy pooh-poohing everything, I'm just trying to figure out the setting and I've come in with some pretty warped pre-conceptions of what d&d is so I'm sounding negative when really I'm just curious and getting my pre-conceptions warped. So don't take that as a negative attitude or criticism.

also surely after a page of that you kicked him out of the game its the fantasy rape-equivalent of saying "i find a magic ring and wish super powers upon myself; i immediately kill everyone and all your girlfriends suck on my giant amazing penis because they love it" kind of against the spirit of things isnt it?

A supernatural force mutated my body into a gorgeous 14 foot tall green-eyed blonde-haired sexual adonis called Mills. The shock of seeing my own stunning reflecting stopped my heart and I died. When I come back to life I'm going to spend forty straight pages "ironically" talking about how beautiful I am and how many hot babes I'm gonna bang with my huge cock. Let's do this.

I'm on holiday as well but I brought a laptop for my own stuff so I should be able to play whenever you start, especially weekdays your time because the girlfriend will still be at work. But possibly you might not have started by the time I get back so don't sweat it. Just wanted to let you know I'm still here in case you were thinking everybody has bailed.

I promise I won't write such long entries every time, I just figured with the set-up we could go a bit longer if desired. Is it ok if I use past tense? I know everybody else is using present but it just feels super gross to write in it. Also yeah do we get summaries of how much damage we've taken etc? Do we need to provide lists of possessions like money etc?

I'll just write a short post to keep things rolling, but for future reference can I confirm what the go is with people acknowledging you as sin-eaters in-game? For e.g. that guy in Beet's, and the driver in mine; are they geists? Can they directly influence factors in the 'real' world without the aid of a medium such as us? Are they other sin-eaters? I suppose our characters are as ignorant as we are so we can deal with that, but I ask because my character's geist is a piece of poo poo skinhead and you've chosen a non-white guy for the car driver photo. I'll let it sit for now and just do a short one but I wanted to confirm whether my geist would recognise the guy using the term 'sin-eater' and thus not accost him.

Sorry that I waited like 5 days to give a "guy gets back in the car" post, you probably want to just put him to sleep and fast forward to the fair expect implicit agreement if you have the guy invite woodstock to crash on his couch or just drive him to a motel or something and give a brief "hiya here's how geists work i'll see u at the fair tomorrow, and dont forget to save regularly and if you press left button right button up up crouch up while facing east in that part of the church you get free health potions" kinda speech, or even dont, im just being a bit hesitant because i dont know the game mechanics yet all i know is i gotta get my skills super swole so i can drop a ute on bcr
