The Council Hall

@Dr_B
A rakashan diplomat, the idea just sank in. Cool idea, I like it.

Okay, sounds like Holy Knight or Hedge Knight. I’ll see if Dr_B has thoughts on the matter, then pick.

Anything further you can tell us about the Wardens, or the forces they are fighting, GM? How dire is the situation, is this a threat to all lands, etc.

Both Knights sound excellent, your pick Harrigan!

Will decide once we get just a smidge more from the GM... ;]

Which of mine would be preferred, lemur? The tough-talking faerie or the shy witch?

What's the next step?

I haven’t submitted a character yet — was hoping to hear a little more from the GM on the setting, as I mentioned above. Once I have that, I can pretty quickly build and submit my PC…

Same. Was waiting to hear which concept he preferred.

I adjusted Cornelius' Edges to fit with the Setting Rules:

Guys, I want to apologize. I have this thing, which is best named as social anxiety, and it can be very tough on me. I regularly had this in tabletop gaming, but sooner or later I could usually get over it. I fully expected it to be not at all, or hardly present in pbp (online, no immediate pressure, no-one looking in my eye expectingly), but the long time since I logged in was exactly because of this stress. Right now it felt like running a marathon to log in, my lizard mind wanted me so much to run away and hide.

I'll put this game on the hanger till I can get over this -- and I don't know how long this is gonna take. Maybe I gather some emotional? stamina with time, or try running a game for a single player, but this does not work for me right now.

Sorry to you all.

no worries. Thanks for letting us know. Take care of yourself and focus on the positive interactions you get in life and here.

As someone who also suffers from social anxiety and chronic depression, I understand completely. I get it, I really do. That's why my games run so slowly. Some days, all that I can do is get online and respond to games in which I am a player. Just remember, you are not alone in this. There are others who share this condition, and it can be staved off (I don't believe that anyone with depression or anxiety can ever be "cured"), but medication and therapy work for me.

Well, it feels sadly good that someone understands it.

I'll see how well I can fight it. My main methods are mood music, lots of hot/warm [sage + ginger] tea in my stomach, and physical exercise.

See you around, guys.

Good luck lemur, no worries!

Zero worries, lemur -- please look after yourself and feel better soon!

Be well, lemur!
