I can't find it documented anywhere, but I'm guessing this happens after I approve the character. I plan to work on that tomorrow.

I put some posting guidelines up, in addition to the first post of the game thread. I'm still waiting on some final character sheet tweaks, but I think we're on target to get started on Monday! Thanks to everyone for getting characters turned in so quickly. Someone else said it: it's definitely a motley crew!

Can people post as their characters now?

A woman with half elven looks and green hair. Wearing sharkskin hide and a long coat with a decidedly pirate look to her ensemble. Her eyes stand out a brilliant green. High boots, a tricorn hat and braided hair.

Hmmm. I locked the game thread, but apparently you all can post, so... Let me get the last character approved and we can start early.

Hey, all. Please subscribe to your private threads if you haven’t already. That way you’ll be notified if I post something, and vice versa, that needs attention.

I don't have Craft Cooking as a skill but could I use Survival to make a meal? Doesn't have to be fancy, just filling, I guess xD

CEP, if you want to have Ian and Natsumi work together, I think that's a great idea. She's usually tired in the mornings (fatigued, actually, due to the drawback I selected for her), but would definitely chat up anyone of the "conscripts" to look for help in getting out of this situation and back to lining her pockets with gold.

Sounds perfect. Ian is really more of a night owl himself.
Sep 13, 2019 3:47 pm
Watch out for her. She's a creature of pleasure and comfort and might try to get him to entertain her so she doesn't wake up fatigued the next morning (hedonistic drawback.)
Sep 13, 2019 4:01 pm
The -only- reason I didn't give Ian that one was because you can only pick one Drawback and there was another that edged it out.

It seemed to fit with my character concept - capricious, carefree, given to stealing things for fun...

Hey everyone. Thanks for your patience. I'm working on a post and hope to get it up by the end of the weekend. Coordinating 6 peoples' independent actions, then putting it into a narrative takes time, as you all know :) I really like the format you all started using: roll for your daily task, include your day and night actions. That helps me plan ahead.

If I miss something you've posted about doing, please let me know!

What does everyone do for a living? I've been a librarian of some kind or another since 2001. For the past 8 years, I've been an administrator at a rural public library. It might be surprising, but farming communities really love their libraries!
