What happened with Agna and the captain? Lol
Pretty much the same thing that happens between Agna and anyone who disagrees with her. They're obviously crazy lol. Captain Harkin has just repeatedly doubled down on her insanity.

@RAAMtentacles,@testlum it probably won’t come to this but since I tried to give away almost all the secrets, would it be ok if we sort of review some details of the backgrounds so the new players have a bit more freedom of choice? This will only be minor details like modifying some NPC that my tie things up in different ways…
Sure, what do you have in mind? Are we going to "pass on" some secrets for the others to use?

Not exactly pass on secrets, but since they were adapted to the characters, maybe it's possible to "share" the other parts of the secrets that weren't used. I'll review the character creation thread to check if there are any clashes, but it should be ok. asking just in case :D

I've had a go at putting a character sheet together - it's easy enough to use, but I'm worried about being too broad with my spell description
For spells the suggesting is to think about a D&D spell base effect, instead of the details. For example, Hallucinatory Terrain is fundamentally an illusion. This effect (create an illusion) would be your base spell and then you can use it narrative as you wish. The catch is that affecting more targets make it more difficult to cast, so a fire thread is simple but a fireball will have a high penalty.

I'm wondering what would be worth listing as an Item. Are we limited to 5 items? Do we need to detail everything we are carrying - this list would be pretty long (rations, torches, bed roll, tinder box, coin purse.....), or is it just significant items or groups of things (i.e. survival equipment)
You're not limited to 5 items, we can just modify the sheet as needed to add more slots. There's a post in the session 0 where some of these questions were mentioned I think.

You don't need much detail for the inventory as if it makes sense for you to have it you can claim to have it. I'm not sure RPing shopping is much use in PbP when it is just about buying stuff, so you can always say you bought it during your preparations and roll wealth to check if you got it or not. No need to worry about having items for every possible situation, though this can be interesting roleplay sometimes :D

Honestly, I checked Agna's inventory two, three times max during the first two chapters.

quick check how everyone is doing with the characters.
I had a look at the sheets already submitted and there are some missing details, so I'm guessing there might be more specific questions by now :D

Sorry haven't tackled the character sheet yet. Was still waiting for what we were deciding on my character

ahah yes, I'm a bit late on that xD as far as I can tell, all backgrounds look ok so we can roll with that. I'm working out the details and will write them all at the same time today or tomorrow all things going well :D
Jun 25, 2023 6:35 pm
Okay when I get time I'll work on it and if anything is off feel free to change it or let me know

Thanks for the reminder to actually 'submit' my character. Sorry.

I have done that now - I think I have everything filled out but please let me know if I've missed something or done something wrong.

Sorry for the time this took! Background ideas are ready :D

I looked the the character sheets that were submitted and will check them properly tomorrow, but I noticed Alora Bellflower (finally answering your question @Dmbrainiac xD) is missing magic/abilities. These are sort of a way you can boost your skills or do something slightly different, further customize your character. For example, for a spy, you could reflavour pass without trace as a mundane ability tie to the stealth skill, if you don't want magic. Instead of magically hiding all traces, you're just a "super ninja" and actually leave no traces.
Talking about reflavoring things, @RAAMtentacles,@testlum feel free to take the opportunity to update anything in your character you thing is not working as intended now that you have a bit of experience with the system :D
