Sadie Schintz is cool. And that's just about everything she's got going for her. She dropped out of college freshman year, was dropped by her family as far as the apple could be flung from the tree, and dropped enough acid before and after these events to drown America from sea to shining sea in a shower of psychedelic ecstasy. She currently works a dead end job at a 7/11, and is a regular at the Metroskate West, as well as just about every club in a ninety mile radius.

OK, here goes the pitch:
Ruben is a 19 year-old small-time weed pusher trying to expand his operation. He's also into clubbing, and is finding that the two interests go hand in hand rather nicely. He heard about the Metroskate opening, and is eager to check it out and claim his stake on that turf before the competition does. He doesn't want to touch the heavier stuff yet, having had serious warnings (his crooked nose being a testimony of one) by larger operators. So far, if he sticks to weed he'll be alright, but one day...
Will create character next, let me know if this concept works for you @saccharine_rabbit

Not sure if all the character generation rules apply since we are supposed to be teens. @saccharine_rabbit, should we roll on the starting gear tables and such?
I'm thinking my character is a goth girl who pretends not to care about things but actually does. Will fill out all the details a little later on.

I understood we were friends, but not necessarily teens.
If we're teens, a lot of the tables don't make much sense indeed. I'll edit my character if that's the case.

@Dr_B
The character looks great!
Also yeah, I would roll for starting gear. Don't want you going in totally unequipped. Wouldn't be fair.
And as far as character go I would say on the younger side but def not teenagers. There is actually a module for high school but I figured the less alterations to start out the better.
Also @Loddfafnir
Thank you so much for making a character sheet like that! It'll work really well.
Also don't worry about magic. It really won't come into play unless one of your characters rolls Magic as a weapon.

oh! For everyone: There's a special rule for this oneshot that adds something to your gear:

action. Flip a coin. If Heads, start with skates.
Or I guess more like, roll 1d2 and roll a 1.

Bob is rather forgettable. A short, thin man that never raise his voice. His life is filled with routines and habits that he never deviates from
Bob was 19 when his life changed. He was doing rote data entry for a crowdworking platform when he saw something that wasn't really possible. When it happened again the next day, he knew this was meant to be. Since then, Bob lies frequently as he doesn't know who to trust anymore.
One year later, Bob now mentors Alice. Alice, two years his senior and a bit eccentric, is a crowdworker like him. Together they try to pierce what lays behind the veil.
But tonight, for once, Bob will take the night off to relax with his friends at the Metroskate.

Submitted my character as well. Changed my concept a bit.
Rachel Rosenblatt is a teacher's assistant at the local university. While doing research for her professor, she came across a book in the library with knowledge not meant for mortal minds. Ever since that day, she's been quietly obsessed with the occult. She's managed to discover a strange book filled with names in different handwriting and a strange voice recording, but she's not sure what any of it means. Little does she suspect that at Metroskate tonight, she'll learn more than she bargained for...

Dmbrainiac says:
The GM stated earlier that we all should be around 19 or 20 years old.Ola Hey Nineteen!
Ok, I have a character concept in mind. She's a changeling whose mother had been captured from her human family and kept prisoner at a noble fae's home where she gave birth to my character. She was raised well enough and when it was discovered that she had an aptitude for art, the fae gave her all the materials she could ever want. She spent her days drawing and painting on the lush estate and learning courtly manners and charms. But she got caught in a war between two Fae courts and was held captive in a cell for two years where she secretly learned her abilities from a fellow inmate. She managed to escape at the age of 19 years old but never went back to her "human home". As revenge, she kills one of her captors and reduces him to an eyeball which she wears on a ring so that he can watch her enjoying her life for eternity, while he, via his eye, is trapped in her ring. As a bonus, he can never close his eye as there is no eyelid!
Later, she took an apartment and met the rest of the group in some way and ended up at the skating place. This part is of course subject to fitting in with the rest of the group's ideas. I'll add to it as I roll stuff but obviously, I have chosen her background and concept if that's ok.
Edit. Oh, I see. I was using the full rules. I guess magic won't work in this setting unless it's rolled?

I was about to say, that 100% gave me a new horror game idea.
Like what is the tooth fairy doing with all those teeth anyway? Who said you had to give your own teeth? Can other bones be exchanged for more money (and again, it doesn't have to be your bones)?

The tooth economy is a lot more robust than, say, the kidney economy, because each person can give... like, max one kidney. Meanwhile, our teeth literally just fall out of us. A lot more stable than something like hair, too, which is just so devalued there's not even a point.

yes , if we all add our own character to the library. I will add mine now.
Go to Characters/All characters, and find the name of your Metroskate Bloodbath character in the list.
Then click on its BOOK icon, so it becomes red:
Now, when in the game forums you click on my character you should be able to see it.

I'm letting the handguns slide because those can technically be concealed, whereas I don't think marching through the front doors of a place armed with a shotgun ends well.
Sep 9, 2023 4:28 pm
Also for consistency's sake with everyone, the Investigator Bundle (aka the phone/money/notebook/pen combo) does take up an inventory slot, but all items collectively take up only 1. So maybe just put Investigator Bundle in an inventory spot and know that it counts for your phone, money, and notebook.
Game rules are that small items can be bundled together, so I don't want anyone losing a ton of inventory space just because they're holding a pen separately from a notebook.

You rolled it, so your choice if you want to keep it in that case. Handguns/Pistols I think are viable, it's just the shotgun/rifle where I'm like "there's no way that will work."
