[OOC] The Out of Character Lounge

No, I'm not sure that he has to. He could: strictly speaking (in terms of written mechanics) (and since Ivario intends real harm), if Teddy Beartrand where to pop up and actually attempt to teddy ninja block the kick (Defend action), then it could do some real damage (lose some stuffing, bust a button-eye, etc)...

But narratively speaking, I agree with @YullyBear that most likely (being a fluffy bear) he would probably just bounce along the field -- which could be kind of funny.

Also since Ivario kicked the tree stump and not Beartrand directly, Beartrand could continue to just take cover from the attack (instead of engaging with a Defend action).

Maybe Ivario will recognize Beartrand's voice (is he talking to himself?)

Alright, that makes sense.

Yes he is talking to himself in a soft voice to summon some courage.

I won't be able to make an IC post today. Feel free to continue the story.

No worries. Thanks for the heads up.

I'm traveling this weekend. I should be able to post tomorrow. Hope everyone's having a good week.

Have a good trip, Sean!
Just a normal work week here. Hope you're well too :)

Oh, I had my RL game of FAE on tuesday and it was great fun! We didn't manage to finish a one-shot so we're doing a second episode hopefully soon. We decided to play in the borderlands universe. Lost of cool options there. I'm thinking of giving guns an aspect, which would fit well in that universe.

That's awesome! That would be pretty intimidating for me, to do face-to-face live game with Fate, but perhaps I can get to that point eventually myself. I'm glad it worked out well (!) I've never heard of borderlands, the sci-fi setting, but it looks like there's a lot to work with there.

Going out on a bit of a limb here: I have an idea of what the oracle will be, but do either of you suppose she should be good, actually a bad/evil character, or indifferent (neutral)? EDIT: or could be a surprise.

I like the idea of the oracle being neutral, preserving the balance in the world.
Maybe she can give us an ultimatum. Like Save the village but lose ... or Don't save the village and gain ...
Perhaps we can negotiate a deal somehow.

Thanks @TheGenerator. I should be able to post IC tomorrow.
