Dawn OOC Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 Actually, my statement above was based on you saying that Venus was moving to Olympius. That meant, to me, that she was going to reside there on a permanent basis. I didn't say that the secondary could never meet the primary, only that they couldn't have major interactions or reside in the same enclave. If Venus is living in Olympius, then its fine. If she expects to live in both enclaves... well, I think that Fox and Han are both under a misunderstanding about what her intentions truly are.

Venus Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 Oh, hehe - she is going to move permanently to Olympus, no doubt about that. I only have the feeling right now that she won't be allowed to come back and visit the Refuge.Under these aspects my idea can actually work. So no misunderstandings here, Venus' mind is set, don't worry about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The three concrete ideas that have been bounced to me all have definite groups they want to join. So I may add that no one gets to go jaunting off on their own. That keeps down the number of threads I have to maintain/watch overall, since people will fit right into established threads. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dawn OOC Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 Courier, I'd say don't worry about it ATM; we'll just go forward in FOB. I just happened to catch Asa right as he posted so he offered to move it and I accepted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
z016 Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 I'd definitely restrict secondary characters to established groups - that makes them an enhancement to the current game and not a drain on your resources as an ST. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anatoly Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 Hello everyone,After a lot of reading, seeding and pleading, I managed to finish my character concept to join you guys. I placed my character's factsheet and background (Benedict) in the Characters section, and will put up my first IC post soon.Just be gentle with the new guy, I can be slow a bit at the start figuring everything out.Hoping to have a great time!

Only Ira ICly knows its whereabouts but all of the players love referencing it, especially when Long is in chat.

LydaLynn Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 Welcome Anatoly!And I had a thought on the secondary characters - what if they were norms instead of supers - there's alot of stuff for regular people to do and plots they could be involved in. If they ended up infected - they'd have the same chance of changing as an Ally NPC. I think it'd be fun and it'd be nice to see more vanilla mortals walking around - IMHO.

Jasmine Gentian Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 Welcome Anatoly!*hands him some Zombunny repellant*On a prior note, I would agree with all your restrictions regarding secondary characters, Carver. They all sound fair and reasonable to me. And as one of the other people requesting a second character, you already know I'm for the idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anatoly Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 On an unrelated note, how does one use the dice roller, in case it might be needed? I found references to it, but not a button or command line explanation for it. Is it just a /roll with modifiers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

z016 Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 I'm neutral on the dice roller, personally. I use IC when it works for me and the D&D roller when it doesn't, so I'm fine. Also: YAY!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I remember right, he has a dice roller for Scion, but that is on a different dice system than Abby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krysti-Lynn Magnussen Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 I personally keep defaulting to Invisible Castle anyway...And if any secondary characters want to interact with Kristin or want to have a past connection, send me a PM or catch me in Chat. I swear, she is getting better and starting to get over the crazy.... some, at least. A bit.No promises on new crazy though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Primal Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 As far as dice rollers go, I don't see how it matters either way. I usually use an old Wizards of the Coast dice roller that they designed for AD&D. I don't see the point in making it an issue what dice roller we use aside from the need to keep us all honest when another player wants to review our roll, which, let's face it, that's usually the case. To be blunt though, if any of us need to be kept honest, we're probably playing with the wrong crowd.My roller posts like this:Roll(10d10):2,1,9,4,5,10,5,8,4,1I usually add in the successes part or re-rolls for qualities and do the math so the ST doesn't have to bother with it all.

Stargaizer Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 I still use the beta chat roller. If you know the address or have it bookmarked, it still works.But I'm with Damon, I thought Chosen only had a M&M roller up right now. I thought he was still working on an Abby roller.As for why it matters, not that it really does, it just streamlines and standardizes the process. Or at least that's my take on it.

RushingMountain Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 I looked back, and it turns out it's the beta Aeon Continuum dice roller.Sorry, my brain hasn't sufficiently recovered from work yet.
