Strangers OOC Thread & Lurker Lounge

[samwise7]

This is where the "table talk" will happen and out of character stuff.  You know, making fun of each other, dice rolls, questions about the rules, etc.

Those that aren't playing in this game are welcome to comment on it if they feel so inclined.  That is the "Lurker Lounge" part of the title of this thread. 

Once we get the characters made, we can start the game. 

When in doubt as to where to post something, post it here.  This is the catch all thread.

[samwise7]

This will be my attempt to clarify where you should post and what you should post where.  I hope that helps.

[samwise7]

Alright, we can go ahead and start the game as I believe all of the players have made characters.

Let the game begin!

Ahem, I have my character almost ready, so I would like to join if it is still ok. Sorry for being so slow.

[samwise7]

Whoops, I thought everyone was ready.  Go ahead and make your character and start posting when you are finished.   

[samwise7]

"You can't remember your own name..."  I think someone missed that part.    

[imported_Raf Blutaxt]

Makes the search for character names during creation very simple.

[samwise7]

I guess it does, haha.  You will remember it at some point though.  I'm guessing you guys will make up some nick names or something until then.

[imported_Viktyr Korimir]

Heh. I assumed my character didn't know the others had missing memories. So my 'remembering' my name may be quite conspicuous.

[samwise7]

I think I forgot to mention that you can role-play your retainers as well.  That way it takes some of the effort off of my shoulders.    If you make your retainer try every trap, and make them go down every dark hallway first, then I will take over for them for a short time to say, "no way in hell buddy."  hehe.

[imported_Rasyr]

Do we know that they are our retainers?

[samwise7]

There is a familiar bond with them yes, and they each seem to cling to a certain character.  Without knowing why, there seems to be a Frodo & Samwise relationship between you two.  You are the master, and they are the helper.  Like knowing about your abilities, you also just know about this. 

[imported_Rasyr]

Do we remember THEIR names?

[samwise7]

Nope, it's all a blur.   

[samwise7]

Everyone can make an Int Save to see if your characters remember their names, and the names of their retainers.  The TN is 20. 

You can roll that here.  See the How To Roll Novus Dice thread for more information on how to do this.


I'm not sure how a Second Sight works, so I have to go look that up.  Hmm, I can't find that Talent... where is it exactly, or how does it work?
