Mutants & Masterminds: The Indigo Children - Teenage Mutant Ninja Table Talk

[Cole Mulvaney]

she should, just probably not very well

[jameson (ST)]

full on illiteracy would be a drawback purchased at chargen. Ramani likely can read even if only at a grade school compentancy and by sounding out the words to herself.

[Ramani]

PM'ed that part to you Jameson

[jameson (ST)]

As a note if any of you have exhausted all of your ideas and need a hint you can spend a Hero Point on "Inspiration" and I will give you a legit hint.

Guys please reply to those PMs I can't move the story forward until everybody is done.

[SalmonMax]

Sorry. I haven't forgotten. Between deciding my next move, being away from the computer for long stretches, and trying to keep up with various other games...

Anyway. I'll try to get to it today at lunch.

[Ozzie Bloggs]

Replied to your Pm.

[jameson (ST)]

replied

[jameson (ST)]

posted everybody's tests and set the scene

If you have not done so add another hero point to your current tally.

I think I am going to adopt a system like Joani has in FI. Everybody drop a "spoiler" box at the end of your post when you need to roll and when your condition changes. For us here is should look like this:

Healthy / Rested / HP: 3

or after a battle:

Bruised x3 & Staggered / Fatigued / HP: 1

etc etc.

[jameson (ST)]

Chapter 1 will be ending soon. If you have anything else you want to say or do in this chapter you'd better get crackin'

[Dawn OOC]

I am good, thanks Jim.

[jameson (ST)]

Updated the NPC thread; added 2 new Pics for the MIB and added a brief Raph entry

[jameson (ST)]

Exp/PP Tracker Added, please note the Banking rules and the current Bank limit. The deadline for PP spends is set at April 24 (next Friday).

[jameson (ST)]

FYI Chapter 1 took place in early November 2008, Chapter 2 will open in April 2009 (6 months) so no need to worry about training times.

[jameson (ST)]

OK, by now you have all recieved a PM or I have discussed with you in chat some events that have taken place for your PCs. Over the next few days I would like you to consider what your PCs have been doing during the downtime and discuss it with me (via PM or by chat if I am around). I will use this as kicking off points for the next chapter which I would like to start up by Monday at the latest.

I also remind you to read up the nex fluff info and read the Exp thread for my new rules on banking experience and such. Spends are due in to me no later than the 24th.

Lastly if anybody has any comments or problems please bring them forward, I can't improve on things if I don't know where the problems lie.

[jameson (ST)]

For the rest of you. I have given you some RP elements which you can either use or not. Please let me know what (if anything) you want to do, I will tailor your intros accordingly. If I haven't heard from people by the end of this week I will drop them into NPC mode and/or leave them out of the current chapter per the Abandonment rules.

[SalmonMax]

Question! Are Wally and Ozzie in the same PM thingy? I didn't see him included in mine, but I want to make sure that's intentional.

[jameson (ST)]

I included him yes, if you click on the "Participants" tab to the left of the PM title it will show you everybody who was sent the PM.

[jameson (ST)]

added Cole & Ramani to "Sorting it Out", have fun

[SalmonMax]

Catching up. I'll post today.

[Ramani]

ok - I'm back again - will have to read up some more before I can catch up with TMNT but I'm trying. I will post more later today but currently I'm catching up with work-stuff since I've been missing here for 2 weeks, too.

So after these priorities have been cleared I'm all yours again

I suppose I'm up to date till tomorrow, maybe even late today.

[Lt. Dana Eckhart]

Hey! I thought there wasn't any room for more mutants...

[Ira Sagebrush]

Mutant? I don't see any mutants...

[Lt. Dana Eckhart]

By mutants I meant players...

(You know we are... )

[SalmonMax]

Argh...Jameson I keep meaning to try to get into chat with you, but time is against me!

We definitely need to talk though.

[jameson (ST)]

Max - I do accept and reply to PMs quickly.

Sky - At the time it was true, times change...

[SkyLion]

Does that mean you have room for a cute and cuddly mutant Pangolin?

[jameson (ST)]

In a word: No.

If you feel like you need to discuss or protest this PM me.

[jameson (ST)]

Search vs. Notice

If a player is looking for something state as much and roll a search check, you may "take 20" on the check and I will assume you are taking the proper amount of time & effort to search thoroughly the area. If you are looking for specific items please state that. Notice checks will be rolled by me on behalf of the players and the results therein will be integrated into my posts as needed.

[jameson (ST)]

All Threads updated, sorry for the delay.

[Ramani]

I'm not sure but did you raise the PL of the game by one or have I dreamt you did?

[jameson (ST)]

nope, you're crazy

[Ira Sagebrush]

Nothing like a crazy anthropomorphized white tiger to jaunt around town with.

[jameson (ST)]

Apologies about my less than stellar record of posting regular like. Between Scion and being in a bit of a funk its been hard to get into a good mood for posting. In addition of course your posting has been slowed as well. I think if we can all agree to try and keep up a posting rate of once every 2nd or 3rd day we can continue to make this game move forward smoothly.

[jameson (ST)]

+1 Hero point to all those in Safari

[jameson (ST)]

*kicks the tires of Safari and sighs*

[SalmonMax]

*cowers and shields face*

It's not my fault this time! I posted! Don't hurt me!

[Forge]

Maybe you just had a lemon...need to trade it in...

[jameson (ST)]

I'm back (more or less). Need some input from you guys. Chapter two has been royally pooched by various factors. Two PCs dropping out hasn't helped nor has my own vacancy. I'd like to know if you would prefer to go on or if we should take a mulligan and reset to the start of chapter 3 which will allow us to account for Rodney/Adrian' absence. Dom will either play out his story as it is moving now or I will exercise a little deus ex machina to bring him into the fold.
