I say throw out an idea and then collaborate on the possible backstory. The two I picked are based solely off what I've seen so far but they are not final.

I uhmn. I am still dealing with Labels.

Labels, the stats of the system.

I dont know the system at all and might have gotten in over my head.

What are you having trouble with?

Oh I hear ya! I'm familiar with AW games and I had a hard time deciding on those too. Check this out if you haven't already- it may help you decide which way you want to play your character.

I guess

Danger +2
Freak +1
Savior -1
Superior +2
Mundane -1

Not necessarily the scale is probably just different than what you've use to. ) is average +3 is exceptional -3 is well... hey ... here's a cookie it's okay...

Danger is how dangerous you are in a fight, -3 (Oh god please don't hurt me I'm a bleeder) to +3 (Your hands turn into claws you shot laser beams and smile since you love a good fight).

Freak is the opposite of Mundane. Being freakier means you have more powerful abilities out of the norm or look different (Think Beast Boy from Teen Titan).

Superior means you feel superior to others telling them what to do might seem nature or look superior to other people from how you carry yourself.

Savior is to me your heroic state. How people look at you if it's high +2 or +3 they think you look like an 'iconic' superhero

Mundane is how you relate to normal people and act +3 is very normal, -3 might be you're very cold, robotic in nature (you might actually be a robot), and you may take everything literal.

Does that help?

EDIT: You're states might 'change' also due to what you do.

Thank you Remnant that helped a lot.

I went with the one I saw on the playbook I liked and added +1 to one of them like it said.
I think I am ok with what I have there now.

So you're the he's dangerous but he's in charge type...

*takes notes*

Slight clarification; I'm pretty sure the Labels are on a scale of -2 to +3, not -3 to +3.

Also the Labels aren't necessarily meant to represent your capacity to do things, they're more about how your character sees themself.

^ What they said -2 is the lowest.

Well, we already have a new player, Toastymalone! Toasty, pick a playbook from the OP and feel free to ask if you have any questions.
Feb 13, 2017 11:21 pm
Welcome, Toasty!

Hey everyone! I'll try to figure stuff out tonight and tomorrow, and I'll make sure to post questions here. Thanks for having me.

I have no idea what you're going to play but I call dibs on being sidekick.
Feb 14, 2017 8:42 pm
Anybody happen to have the playbooks for the star, the reformed or the joined? Or even a link to purchase them haha? I'm having trouble finding them and I wanted to check out my options before committing. If not I'll just pick one of the others.
