I have a few M20 PDFs, if the Storyteller wants me to post links to them.
[The Lovers] Character Concepts and creation
load previous
Jul 13, 2019 2:30 pm
I'd prefer that we only share pdfs if someone is missing them and needs them to create a character. I certainly won't object to you sharing them in a private note. At least that seems like it helps protect GP from being a haven for piracy.

Speaking of which, it seems like we have character concepts established. Before you finalize your characters, we should hammer down the cabal concept:
1. Chance meetings: leave it to the first adventure to create bonds
2. Higher orders: your mentors stick you together
3. Shared goal: you all share a specific goal and work united
4. Shared enemy: you all share a specific enemy and work to protect each other
5. Destiny: the forces of Destiny play a hand. You recognize this is occurring, but perhaps not why.
Now, I'm going to be a hard ass and say that if anyone dares say, "well, my PC wouldn't work with that type of PC" I will boot you.

We could do some different group creation exercises
1) Each writes 5 rumors about their character. 2 Good ones, 2 bad ones, and 1 false one. GM and the creator are the only ones who knows which one is which.
2) We start of by having each character know two of the others in a pentagram model.
Character A,B,C,D,E, where A knows B and C, B knows A and D and so on.
runekyndig knows: virtualbasement and JackJack
BedzoneII knows: King_Moloch and virtualbasement
JackJack knows: runekyndig and King_Moloch
virtualbasement knows: BedzoneII and runekyndig
King_Moloch knows: JackJack and BedzoneII

Mordecai ben Eliyahu - Rumors:
Did you know Mordecai was a member of the Lions of Zion, an ancient Craft of Qabbalists now based in Israel? Supposedly he was forced to leave and come to the States after he committed a serious breach of religious law. Now he’s herem, an exile, and can never go back.
i heard that Rabbi Mordecai is part of the Mogen Ha Chav - the "Shield of the 36." It’s a secret organization with the sole purpose of protecting the "Tzadikim Nistarim." The Tzadikim are 36 righteous individuals whose existence keeps the world from ending. The guy knows their names. Hell, maybe he’s one of them...
A friend of a friend said he saw that dude square off against a Technocracy HIT Mark. According to him, you’ve never seen anything like an old Jewish guy screaming rotes in ancient Hebrew while his pet golem tears a cyborg apart with its bare hands. That kind of shit leaves a lasting impression. My friend’s friend said he browned his pants when he saw it.
Rabbi Ben Eliyahu? Stay away from him. The man is zealous, even for a chorister. Thinks he’s doing God’s work. If you aren’t a fellow Haredi, you’re an enemy...
Mordecai regularly interacts with several Umbrood who take the form of Elohim or "angels." He seeks them for advice and to pray at their feet. One of them even serves as his "meggid," a sort of qabbalistic supernatural mentor.

Rumors about Wiki (2 good, 2 bad, 1 false)
A)Some says she used to dance (Striptease or Burlesque) and some of her tattoos hide scars from an abusive boyfriend. Others say that she used to be a Suicide girl
B) She is LA best counter hacker. When someone tries to hack into a system, she stops them. She threw out a casino pit boss for questioning her value to the casino. She yelled at him for 20 min, telling him how she stopped hacks and exploits costing the casino 1,2 mill pr month. While he just strutted around the floor costing the casino 60k a year! Making her 20 times more valuable than his sorry ass. - this was in the middle of the casino floor
C) She once shot a guy in the nuts with a gun. He tried to grab her ass and steal her purse
D) She has a library with stolen data from a Technocracy database.
E) She was identified as starting a barfight but was never charged as she could prove that she was at the other end of the city at the time.

OOC:
We can also form up the character connections more organically. If anyone can see a relationship, go ahead to flesh it out. Here's my rumor write-up for inspiration. Please let me know if the strong innuendo offends. If so I can change character concept.Did you know that that's not her stage name, but her real name? The Incredible Ishtar, the one and only exotic adult magic show on the Strip. At Spearmint Rhino. And even then, you'll have to know the right people to get on the waitlist to watch her.
I swear to you she's at least in her forties, even though she doesn't look a day over twenty-five. Friend's dad swears by all that's holy that she's the same person as The Amazing Astarte, a famous burlesque dancer who had her heyday in the 70s.
They say she only performs half hour sets, but it feels like the show lasts for hours. They say the audience number in the hundreds, but each attendee swears that it felt like a private show exclusively for him. They say she favours her most loyal fans with their deepest desires, although no one knows anyone who has actually admitted to this.
They say she pulls rabbits out of herself.
@comicrawgoss has the lowdown on her partner/consort/mate, whom he describes as 'a dark-skulled Ghost Rider', with blurry blog pictures of her dressed as Zatanna, riding pillon on his bike, which he declared as 'heresy, because you can't mix Marvel and DC'.

runekyndig, I was writing this up and didn't see your post happening at the same time. I see a connection already if we have the stripper angle.Last edited July 13, 2019 5:31 pm

Connor Kent Rumors
Connor is from somewhere in Ireland, coming from a superstitious group of Irish Travelers, he can knick anything its said.
Connor is said to speak to ghosts, or at least see them, but most come from people he's lost to paradox or other oddities.
Connor is of the Order of Hermes, though has no official house that he is claimed to. As no one has yet to see any particular value in him yet.
Connor's total knowledge of Magick comes from materials from Tremere vampires no longer able to do it themselves.
Connor has made some deals with spirits, and possibly even worse to get himself out of some tricky situations with the Technocracy.

I've admitted the two submitted characters into the game, but I haven't reviewed them as of yet.

Glenda Baldwin Rumors (2 good, 2 bad, 1 false)
1. Glenda knows how to keep a secret. I can't really say anything else, as no one told me what the secrets she knows are and she sure isn't talking.
2. Don't let Glenda's light-hearted exterior fool you. She is capable of being serious, driven, and determined when the situation calls for it. She is a great friend and will go above and beyond to help others.
3. Glenda is pretty dirtbag-adjacent, due to her job. She's got relationships with some shady people and sooner or later it's going to come back on her hard.
4. Glenda had to let go of a child when she was younger and desperate. It was not a formal adoption and she doesn't even know the names of the people who accepted it. Sometimes, she considers trying to find her son, but she has no idea if he is even alive or where he might be living.
5. Glenda has an abusive ex boyfriend who has been stalking her for a couple of years now. Any guys that she spends more than a few minutes with are likely to notice his car following them.
