You know what? I SHOULD run a Numenera game. Of course, I was thinking about running a Skype/IRC game, not play-by-post, anyone interested? But if anyone wants to run another PbP, I'm game.

Actually, screw it. If there's interest, I'll run a PbP version of the game I came up with.

EDIT: I has a thread now. http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3662182

Hello all, I'm going to be a little busy with work the next week or two, but I'll sneak in posts when I can. I know, great timing, but what you can do?

As far as links go:

I suggest that Ohrmazd be leery of Susan, superficially because she is a foreigner who associates with machines, but more honestly because her powers speak to him in ways that unsettle him.

For my other link, I'm open to suggestions. Susan probably makes her trade as a folk magician.

Looked and everyone's connections and I see Paschal's already suspicious of Eater, nice :v:. I figure she isn't obnoxiously flagrant with her powers but she's pretty casual about working little flashy cantrips and healing people while standing uncomfortably close.

Maybe Eater's a little leery of Susan, in a "you're getting results with your abilities but I don't get why you insist on the unnecessary trappings" way. Or something.

So who wants to think that Eater's a messiah or some sort of strange being?

It's a pleasure to meet all of you. Especially in such a fine settin' as this. Just need us some music an' a brawl an' we'll be set.
Yeah I went ahead and wrote in the connections as I saw 'em. Doesn't mean they can't change if someone has a good suggestion though.

Alright, here's the proposed connections so far:

  • Paschal sensed something strange in Eater's mind. Now he's sticking around to see if she's really something different or just a fellow member of the flash trade. Either way it should prove enlightening.
  • Paschal's long hours spent working and socializing with Charus have left them with a lasting mental connection. Free short range telepathy and Charus is immune to Paschal's Psychic Burst.
  • Charus learned to control his phasing from Paschal
  • Ohrmazd is suspicious of Susan because of her heritage
  • Ohrmazd is suspicious of Susan because of her powers
  • Charus is immune to Ohrmazd's fire through a quirk of fate.

Saberwulf, what would you think of Mazu befriending Susan and making a ritual drum for her? Sailors like magicians, right? :v:

Edit: For reference, here are the four official suggestions for links arising from Talks to Machines.

  1. Pick one other PC. That character
    seems to have a terrible relationship with
    machines—or at least the machines that you
    communicate with. If she is next to a machine
    that you interact with in a friendly manner,
    that machine is treated in all ways as being
    one level lower than normal (unless doing
    so benefits you or her, in which case the level
    does not change).
  2. Pick one other PC. He seems especially
    leery of you, though this could just be your
    perception.
  3. Pick one other PC. She has a small
    machine among her equipment but won’t tell
    you any details about it or let you see it.
  4. Pick one other PC. You know that
    this character knows an incriminating or
    embarrassing secret about you, and you hope
    that he doesn’t reveal it.

Yeah, sounds good to me! Mazu probably hacked some metal off an ancient sunken ship and made a steel tongue drum with fancy painted designs all over it for her. The age makes it more magic, obviously.

Also woo, posting time!

Sorry about disappearing like that, I was moving house and doing work with my dad. Good news is I have faster internet now! I'll have a post up in a few hours.
