Character review, Nim

Character review, Aduan
- isn't this the same character you used in the last game?
- anyway looks good, save replenish your pools

Character review, Karam
- record your ability, Levity, from Entertains
- record your limit of two cyphers at a time
- record practiced with light and medium weapons
- record Flex Skill ability

Character review, Rohim

Re: Out of Character

Few questions,

Do you recommend starting with trained speed def and armor training or specialized speed def without armor for starting?

If one of my starting weapon is a bow, do I start with 12 arrow with it?

If I activate shock and make an unarmed attack the next round, does the damages add up before subtracting armor?

Would the character require a tent and bedroll at start?

Thanks!

Yes it is and it's also the same character that I ported over from Rondaks Portal where I played it in the Numenera play test

Raezhon is posted. I know we're not going combat oriented, but you need one glaive in every party, right?

Re: Out of Character

Jay and me were ready to exchange ours but I dont know any of the other connections needed. Do you prefer we try to mix with as many characters as possible?

Re: Out of Character

I really don't care, tbh. There are a few that have mechanical advantages, but they're otherwise fluff that too many players ignore. As long as you are committed to working together, I'm fine with it.

That being said, they do increase your RP opportunities so take advantage of it, but I won't hold up the game for it.

Re: Out of Character

Raezhon would probably have latched onto someone in the group if they have knowledge of the past and or mysteries that might help her in her search. Alternately, someone might have found her in pretty rough shape somewhere and helped her get back on her feet. If so, she would have sworn a blood debt to repay their kindness.

Random Thought: The thumbnails are really small, would it be possible to post larger images of our characters in this thread so I can visualize them better? Numenera is so non-traditional 'tropey' that more visuals help me to get more immersed in the setting (can't just rely on 'oh, yeah, I know what a gnome looks like....' If you know what I mean.

Re: Out of Character

I do like that idea, KaeJae. I'll start a party thread for such descriptive text.

Edit: TheVagrant beat me to it.

I do not know if speed defense trumps armor. Tough call, you'd have to theorycraft that.

Yes

Yes. +3 damage to a single unarmed attack, or +1 sustained for a while with the weapon charged up.

Re: Out of Character

Other priorities have reached me, and I ask to be officially removed from this game team. I would very much like to keep watching it as an outsider, if that is possible.

It was a hard message to write and I feel like shit.

Re: Out of Character

That's fine, I understand the time pressures. We can have your character in the background or stay with the boat.

Re: Out of Character

Once you have eliminated the remaining margr, there will be a bit of narrating and the adventure will be over.

I've had one possibly two ask me about joining a Numenera game, so let me know if you want to continue going, either with these characters (who will get some xp) or new ones. If not, I'll set up a new game instead of continuing this one.

I like my character, so I'd definitely want to press on! :)

Re: Out of Character

Over already? We hardly got started. I haven't even learned how to play the game completely. If you plan on keeping it going, I would like to stick with it so I can learn more.
