Alright, we're up! Here are a few questions I have for the masses; 1. What age are we preferring here? I listed 16, but I'm not sure I necessarily vibe with that. I much prefer older, at least 19. But I want you all to be able to weigh in on this. 2. Combat. I outlined a rough idea for a way to do combat that would involve a simple d20 roll with simple modifiers from skills/abilities, etc. If you have experience with this or just want to pitch your two cents, I'm all ears. 3. NPC characters. Most NPC characters will be teachers, the head teacher, the coordinator, etc. These are characters that you are able to move as you need to. Need a teacher to get onto your character for doing something stupid? Maybe pick the strict one and have them come in and smack them up the back of the head and admonish them. It's up to you. Just try to stick to the established personality. I'll be trying to fill that in while folks create characters and we work through all of that. Regardless, the real question is; do you want to fill out the ranks with npc knights and nobles? Or would you prefer to "skim" over that information. I.E. discussing rank one (if empty of player character) but leaving the description very vague. Pros to npc is that the world feels more fleshed out. Cons, it becomes more taxing for me, the gm, to navigate those characters and it becomes a bit harder for others to take those positions. Not that we can't make it happen. 3. Plot Direction. Do you have ideas for how you think plot should develop? do you have a general theme you prefer? Dark and angsty? Light and fluffy? Just want to get a gauge for our preferences. 4. As always, please send any feedback or ideas you have for the world. Someone in the interest check (Expendable) mentioned something about in England shops being closed on Sunday which is definitely something I need to consider changing lore-wise! Things like that are always helpful. --- Someone on the interest check also asked about power and ability ideas. I'm going to try to get those out to you all as soon as I'm able!
