Character Creation

Looking forward to that witchdoctor.

For annex, gnome and phoenix, I've accepted your characters already.

Phoenix, leave it to me ;) , lemme set up an enemy connected to Warp in some way, using your revenge idea.

Which origin should I go with: erupting while performing in public or erupting in private while being attacked by obsessed fan?

I love the eruption on stage! If you're equally open to both, let's go with that!

Let's treat Sheer Hideousness as the equivalent of Unearthly Beauty, which Mr Nobody can cover up.

Your Mega-Appearance is high enough for Mr Nobody to mask 5 Taint. This means your Taint and its accompanying aberrations will still peek through, but it's not as bad as when the Nobody mask drops. In fact, you'll have to use a quantum point constantly to keep up the Mr Nobody, otherwise everyone's gonna feel that 4 dot Mega-Ugliness and 8 Taint in a sanity-crushing way, all the time. (It's a bit like the problem Jomsviking's permanent QBolt suffers from).

Consider shifting some points into Dormancy? You'll need it to 'power down' the Mega-Ugliness so that you can have a regular life.


Btw, you should still get your 1 freebie dot in Appearance anyway at chargen, so go ahead and put that in.

I'm ok with the common safehouse idea, but if so, I'd like everyone who wants to use the safehouse from the very beginning to put in (at least) 1 dot in Sanctum. Borrowing an idea from other WOD games, if you do, then I'll treat the Sanctum rating as a total of all the dots invested.

Alternatively, only Terrapin has the Sanctum, but in the course of play y'all get invited to hang out at Murder Mountain.

Regarding whether your PCs know each other, I'll be starting everyone off in solo threads first, to work out any kinks, and then merge threads based on how you know each other. Or if some of you are complete strangers, then there'll be a plot moment for you to encounter each other.
