The standard anything not game related thread. A catch all if you don't know where else to post.

Heya, thanks for inviting me! :)
Full disclosure, I know next to nothing about this beyond research done today. Also there may be times when work eats up all my time so I may not be 100% responsive.

I've only seen the first episode of this on Critical role and its pretty good so far. I love roleplay heavy games more than combat so can't wait to learn how to play and try this ttrpg out. I know its a d6 game so I only know about d6 games from playing honey heist and crash pandas but looking forward to this Supernatural detective steampunk Victorian times game.

I love the setting, but I don't know the rules just yet.

They have the quick start rules to download for free for Candela Obscura on the darrington press website.
Http://darringtonpress.com/candela
Its basically just a d6 system. They have the pre generated character sheets and stuff as free downloads too

Indeed. Really all you need to do right now is get the character sheets and decide which role you would like to try out.

I am going to work on a character tonight.
The full game besides the pregens isn't out yet, right?

We're just playing the free quick start rules at the moment as that's the only thing that is available to the public right now but the dm can create their own storylines using the settings in the quick start rules or use the modules in the guide. When the full game comes out, I won't be able to afford it cuz I only play free games so I will play whatever adventures the dm comes up with.
I'm going to be an Occultist so will probably be like one of those old school gypsy fortuneteller characters like from the old classic horror Universal monster films or like the one from Wizard of Oz or whatever.

Hey, sorry for being silent the last few days. My kid had a birthday, then Father's Day stuff, and Mondays are always wild.
So we have three, maybe a fourth, and I think that's a good enough place to start. So let's go ahead and move fully into creation and get into this mystery.

It's ok. It's been Fathers day weekend anyway plus Juneteenth today so everyone has been busy.

Going with the Scholar character because it is the opposite of what I would normally play.
Jun 23, 2023 11:51 pm
Okay! Looks like we are all here now. I'm going to start writing up the intro scene.
Jun 25, 2023 3:09 am
Sorry for not getting the first game post up yet. I've had a busy couple of days and halfway through writing up the intro today I decided I hated it and started over. Now I'm looking at a half done post and I'm exhausted. Good news is tomorrow should be clear of distraction so it will most likely go up early afternoon.

Semi cross posted with Ledosero so I edited my post so that I wasn't reading the newspaper during Alice's show, haha.

Hi all- I am going to bow out of the game-
I know its early on but for a numbe rof reasons- I would rather make my exit now before the group solidifies into an unstoppable force. Happy gaming and all the best. Very excited for your journey!

We'll miss you Senordeebs. Have an awesome day. Yeah I didn't post yesterday due to 4th of July and am going to be gone all day todaybut I'll I don't think I have any drives in cunning. I'll have to check. If I do, I'll hand one to Qralloq.

Hey everyone. So sorry about my absence. I was in a car accident out of state and it took me a while to get my phone replaced and to get back home. I am going to get back in the swing tonight hopefully. I'm fine, just some scrapes and bruises.
Aug 7, 2023 3:06 pm
It's been a minute @AutomAtomic. Hope you didn't have complications from your accident.
Aug 10, 2023 1:37 pm
I'll stay patient for everyone to get back to this. Definitely been enjoying this this far.
Aug 10, 2023 5:59 pm
we're all still here for when you feel up to returning @AutomAtomic!
Also for some reason I really wanted to spell returning as reterning... XD

Hope we get to play again soon but am staying patient but am busy on the weekends so can only play Monday through Friday.

I think that I'm going to withdraw, @Amberthegirlgeekgamer87. He hasn't been online in four months. If he does come back, send me a PM and I'll reapply.
Nov 27, 2023 8:48 pm
I think it's a safe bet to withdraw at this point, but I'm also more than happy to throw my lot in again if our GM should return. Life sometimes doesn't let that happen, unfortunately.
