OoC and Clarifications

For all the OOC stuffs

Its cool to post your character in the Complement section

Question, what does Sq. stand for?

Squaddie

We will fail forward in this game. McLeod's failure is a setback, not a insurmountable obstacle

Sweet!

Sounds good. I’ll get a post in with my guy.

Got a question. Is Command like charisma and natural presence? Or is it rank? Because my guy has a 5, which is higher than the others, so does he out rank them, or he’s just someone everyone respects. Because I was thinking of having him just be a squaddie?

Command would represent force of personality, literally to command attention, respect, negotiation, commerce, or compelling obedience. It is the stat representing how loud your ape is. Command is an emotional demand.

Guile on the other hand would represent more subtle arts. Seduction, coercion, intimidation. As well as picking a lock or placing a claymore for effect. Guile is an emotional appeal.

Wits represents thinking, logic, rhetoric, communication through body language, finding your way through a labyrinth. Wits represents both lateral and forward thinking.

Brawn is your overall strength, toughness, coordination. Where wits might tell you where the best route for a jump in EVA will be, brawn is how you do it.

Rank doesnt matter, just like in mass effect your expertise takes seniority.

Just like the real world a command or guile is worthless against agency. Some commands that are heinous or against the nature of the character will be ignored.

Just like most RPGs character agency is sacrosanct. NPC agency is malleable.

How far apart are Barns and I?

No more than 20m apart.

Finally a success lol

@aegis

Gonna move for ya. Dont worry it wont hurt much.

@aegis

You coming?

This is great. Thanks. Sorry. I got locked out of the site for a minute or couldn’t access it or something. I’ll catch up.

Should I just continue on with my character or did you want me to wait on you GM

I think I might have woke up Zand without realizing that Zand was a pc until Aegis post. Sorry!

No need to apologize, this is all going to be weird.

@microtheMacroBear - that’s my bad. I must have missed that post. I can just edit what I have here or add a couple of lines about him waking up. All good.
