lead Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Was just wondering what every one thinks about a new aberrant game. Not necessarily and most likely not me. Just trying to gauge interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyLion Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Um..I am always game! I have yet more character conepts that would love to see the light of IC text. But why do you ask, if not yourself who plans to create such a thing? Do you know someone with that desire? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lead Posted August 4, 2008 Author Share Posted August 4, 2008 No but i figure this might be a way of finding such (a) person(s). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyLion Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Theres plenty of games to be had here already. I know you signed up in ItB (smart move! ) but none of the others struck your fancy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lead Posted August 4, 2008 Author Share Posted August 4, 2008 Not really. The rest seem a bit over whelming.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyLion Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 I understand. It took me a loooong time before I could get into an open forum type game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lead Posted August 25, 2008 Author Share Posted August 25, 2008 Alright, Ive been thinking and that has led to me several ideas for a game, but I'd need players. This is to be a game with a small cast of pcs and rather campaign driven. Right now I'm just looking for players. I'm also reading books so the start won't be anything like immediate. Anything I do will probably diverge from canon eventually so expect it. (possible) Game Details as of yet*Non galatean novas.*Aliens*Starts a week before the crash*50 np starting package.*Me poking my head in to see what a character is really like and stuff.*A sort of collective pc. More on this later. THink of him as the glue.Post or PM me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lead Posted August 25, 2008 Author Share Posted August 25, 2008 Characters will either be abducted right before or right after eruptions.Keep that in mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rorx Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Add me in lead With it starting a week before the crash does that mean we are baseline until then, or does the nonGalatean mean we would already have erupted? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyLion Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Have a working character concept btw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lead Posted August 26, 2008 Author Share Posted August 26, 2008 The game is set to start the week before the crash. Your character either erupted and was kidnapped, or was kidnapped and erupted, or was just kidnapped as of yet but will erupt soon. All character as going to be erupting before the crash. Well thats the plan. If you have ideas about what that means or other questions go head and PM me.hey and go head and send it to me, and the sheet to if you have that.

Stargaizer Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 I don't know. I have an idea that I'd like to work with, and 50np would be very helpful. I'll see if I have the time to do a second game. It might just be that Joe's going a bit slower than I'd prefer, and that once it picks up it'll be all I can handle. I'll just have to see how things go over the next few weeks (while I get adjusted to my new job).I'd like to give this a shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lead Posted August 26, 2008 Author Share Posted August 26, 2008 Well planning and devolpment are still in the begining stages right now so you don't have to commit but as I'm looking for a smaller number of players I can't be sure a spot will stay open.

Rorx Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Any limits on Nationality or location when kidnapped, as at least one of the ideas I had was initially for a british person/location? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyLion Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 I think the minimum for our own forum is 3 players so SG would make the third. A smaller more intimate tale sounds fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lead Posted August 26, 2008 Author Share Posted August 26, 2008 Three to four players really is what I'm looking for maybe five or six if this suddenly blows up. No limits on nationality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rorx Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Will PM with an idea later on then... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stargaizer Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 So, standard creation, with the exception of 50np instead of 30np? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyLion Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 and no Eufiber. if you have clothes wrecking powers, best to buy attunement... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lead Posted August 26, 2008 Author Share Posted August 26, 2008 No Eufiber withoutt great reasoning, each level of mega attribute gives an enhancment, and a new background call Genetic Superiority. It describes how complex the genetic information necessary for eruption is in the indivdual. Divis Mal has a maxed this. Novas with a high rating are such specimins that will erupt regardless of ambiant quantum energies or the crash.* Average nova0 +1 quantum pool, + 1 quantum per turn00 +2 quantum pool, + 2 quantum per turn000 +3 quantum pool, + 3 quantum per turn0000 +4 quantum pool, + 4 quantum per turn00000 - 1 exp total exp cost when purchasing quantum, megas, powers, extras and enhancements.

SkyLion Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 so its basically like Node, but without adding taint at higher dots and it gives us a bigger pool??? Thats cool...is there a reason we should bother buying Node now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lead Posted August 26, 2008 Author Share Posted August 26, 2008 Its like a weaker node. It stacks with node. Those pluses are the total added. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyLion Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 ah yes, so having a 4 in genetic superiority is like having node 2. or having node 2 and GS 4 you would have the normal equivalent of between node 3 and 4. Not sure how worth it it is for the 5th dot though. 1 xp aint that much but then again background dots are cheap... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lead Posted August 26, 2008 Author Share Posted August 26, 2008 so it viable and attractive but not over powering? Good. good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyLion Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 not that attractive...for the 5th dot anyways...Id rather spend that 5th dot on a dot of Node... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lead Posted August 26, 2008 Author Share Posted August 26, 2008 Its still in devolpment. But its ment to be usefull long term as well, and not be completly identical to node. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyLion Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 I got ya. I was just saying that 1 xp of a savings isnt so great that i would go for it. Even less if you were buying with xp...it would cost 8 xp to buy the 5th dot to save 1 xp! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lead Posted August 26, 2008 Author Share Posted August 26, 2008 But you'd get one xp off for the rest of it permantly. Increase your quantum capabilities more then eight times and its paid for. After that your spending less XP then the rest of everyone.If you can think of anything that might be an alternitive let me know. And that goes out to all of you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that goes out to all of you That doesnt make sense! if you mean Quantum. Quantum is ratingx8. So if I have rating 4 then its going to cost me 32 points to raise to Q5...or if I have GS 5 it will cost 31 points. Or am I not understanding correctly?

lead Posted August 27, 2008 Author Share Posted August 27, 2008 yes, exactly. But for anything related to being a nova gets this discount and permeantly as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rorx Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Damn, just spotted this stuff on Genetic Sueriority, now I'll have to re-juggle the points for what I've been working on.By the way Lead, here's a link to the Wiki about the TV show he was watching a marathon video session of when he started his slow, subtle(ish) eruption.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Tomorrow_PeopleEnjoy! Will PM stats etc soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lead Posted August 28, 2008 Author Share Posted August 28, 2008 Sorry man, but I have to ask, do you think it would be a medium or low level taint to makes all your effects look campy?But the genetics thing, thats going to be sorta importent and central to the plot.Kidding. Kidding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rorx Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 I'm sure that with modern CGI and your no doubt huge budget the effects will be up to a more suitable standard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lead Posted August 28, 2008 Author Share Posted August 28, 2008 But it'd be funny. The only nova who looks like he'd running in front of a green screen at n miles per hour.So who do we talk about for a forum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
