OOC

Feel free to chat about anything not related to the game here.

Just letting everyone know that this is still on and I plan on posting a custom character sheet as I went down the rabbit hole that is the BBCode on this site >_<

I am planning on starting the game soon, but would like to ask a couple questions first.

Do you guys want the game private or public?

Are you comfortable with continuously open recruitment for the game?

Would you all like to start at the same time or would you prefer individual threads until you end up in a party?

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.

Off. Hope you recover well!

I don;t even have that excuse. I;m just wrapping up the school year and lifes been hectice. Hoping to start looking into how to build this not-gargoyle tonight

I'm glad you are ok. And don't worry, no major hurry to get started as I am still learning the ins and outs of GP.
Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or just want a sounding board for ideas.

I'm glad you're okay overall! Sounds like a very stressful time for you.

I've been busy this week, but should be much better now (I hope). Two family members have recently passed and, despite things supposedly being handled months ago, things still keep happening with people messing things up. We're having to go to our lawyer (one the family likes, we don't have 'a lawyer' like richer people) and it has created a lot of stress, tension and balls of emotion in our house. We have a sort of plan now, so I should be back to checking here every day.
I don't feel super strongly either way, but private perhaps unless someone has expressed interest in reading it. That way, since we will most likely be dealing with more mature themes, someone doesn't stumble upon it who shouldn't/doesn't want to.

Continuous recruiting seems okay. I think we could revisit that later if we get too many people, or if the game gets longer. Then perhaps we could bring new players in at certain points, so that a knowledge gap will be less of an issue. I do agree with you from another post, the game's nature does lend itself to people joining mid narrative!

I lean on all at the same time. Unless you have an idea for individual threads first. We could just include a little introduction to them in the first post.

Hi everyone! Thanks for adding me. I’ll read through and catch up a little bit then start making a character. I’ve run Cortex before but not played, so this should be fun!

@Miss_Sadie - you’re a three musketeers fan? Aramis was always my favorite of the musketeers.

@Aegis not really, I've seen a couple of the movies based upon the atory since my mom likes them. They are interesting but I've never delved into the actual stories. I didn't know one of them was named Aramis xD, I made up the name (for my use of it anyway) one day by adding an 'a' to the name 'Ramis'. I wanted a vowel sound at the start for the character. Don't recall a more specific reason anymore.

A late hi and welcome to you though!

Haha. Well still a great name, lol

So, the current plan is to start this weekend with a single group thread and people will show-up when their character's are complete/submitted. As it stands, A'ramis and Markus will be showing up at the guild at the same time. Feel free to be strangers or have an established history!

Other characters will also be showing up if they are submitted before the opening of the IC thread.

That’s great! I’m fine with us not knowing each other, but I can go either way.

I’m excited

The game has started!

Oooooo. I like it!

I'm good with being strangers, works better for A'ramis plot wise anyway when I think about it. They may have noticed each other around, depending on how long they've been in the city. I see A'ramis as a fairly recent arrival.

I'll do my best to write a decent intro post xD

@Aegis just checking if you are still here.

Life prolly happened. Life sucks like that xD

Yea, I know that feeling. Regardless, if we don't get a response by tomorrow, we'll just play it off like the person approaching A'ramis was just some random person walking by.

Alrighty 👍

Hey! Yeah. Still here. Sorry. The weekend and the subsequent week got away from me. I’ll catch up
