[OOC] Shin Megami Tensei: Hand of Time

[Kafka Komedy]

Hm. I certainly wouldn't mind one more person, but I'm largely indifferent. As you are the GM, I place all judgement to you.

[Freikugel]

Being a big fan of SMT, I may give a try to this.

Is it ok if I create a character heavily focused in an alignment?

[PKMNB0Y]

Well, I never said we'd be shooting for the alignment system and I never gave any hints to that, but if you wanna do something like that go right ahead. I ain't gonna judge lol.

[Freikugel]

Well, it's a SMT Rpg (though heavily focused on the DS spin off), and Alignments choice are kinda the essence of SMT

[PKMNB0Y]

:3

I know, but I never really said anything about Law/Chaos/Neutral anyhow. That's what I was referring to.

[Freikugel]

Yeah, yeah I got it. Still had to ask, I mean at least for my own play it will give a certain flavor.

Next question: I can make any kind of human character? In other words, the both portrayed so far are teenagers, yet that's not a norm right?

[PKMNB0Y]

It isn't really. You're free age-wise to go with whatever you think would work. I mean, there are college grads and some in their mid-late twenties and the occasional middle aged man waking around, so go right ahead.

[Freikugel]

All right, let's try

Name: Gentaro Matsunaga (or Matsunaga Gentaro as we’re kinda in japan)

Age: 34 years old

Gender: Male

Appearance: A tall man with a notorious bulk and tan skin, his glance is always a defiant, if not violent one and his face has a notorious scar in the nose. His hair is short, black and carefully combed and despite his violent appearance he dresses in a white business suit over a red shirt and black tie.

Personality: He is a direct, stern man who would avoid to resort to violence but is prone if needed. He is rather the kind of person who would try to convince people through clever manipulation. Gentaro hates the disorder and prefers things to work in a structural and organized way.

Biography: He is an illegal weapon dealer, being the Yakuza and Bokuzoku his usual targets, though is not weird for a teen to show up sometimes. He has certain strong rules within his business, if someone he sold a weapon were not to pay him in the given time he would hire someone to “convince” his client to pay him resorting to methods that one would expect from a yakuza, and that’s because he used to be part of a certain Yakuza group. The new chaos in Tokyo is an excellent chance for him to gain some quick money, after that he plans to abandon the country.

Strength: Strong physical build, Knowledge of weapons. Experienced and clever.

Weakness: Proud, prone to anger, merciless

Demons:

Weapon: Submachinegun and Katana

Other:

"light dark skin"
Uh?

I'd also say maybe tone down the 'extremely smart' bit- maybe 'experienced' would be a better way to get him going, idk. It's kind of stupid if you're both physically and mentally strong and cart around SMGs like nobody's business while everyone else is kinda... Yeah. If he's been in the business for that long, then I'd think experience would probably be more beneficial (and less vague, tbh).

Other than that, seems good to me; I'll get to a first post momentarily so you guys can start doing stuff.

[Freikugel]

English is not my language xD. I meant the kind of skin that is not precisely white and more dark, but not that extreme, similar to a latin, dunno how's that color called like.

Regarding the strenght, yeah I can change that to experienced.

The idea with this guy goes like the kind of character that if this were to be a videogame would have high VIT and STR stats

[PKMNB0Y]

So... Tan?

Edit: Yeah, that's the kind of vibe was getting, which is why I mentioned that. You can't minmax 3 stats under my nose like that ;D

[Freikugel]

Well with strenghts and weakness I thought more on characteristics of the guy than in game stats.

[PKMNB0Y]

Well, it kinda applies to both. It just kind of ended up inadvertently mentioning stat distribution to me, so everything's kind of looking like that.

Don't worry about it too much. Your new form's fine as is, and I've almost pinned down the Clock demons.

I'll have a post up after that's done.

[Freikugel]

Regarding demons, can I make a request? (You can deny it if you want to of course)

As you said Alignments aren't counted in play, but I felt like guiding my character's story as if he were to be following one (not interfering with the main plot of course)

So my request is, can you NOT give him a Chaos Demon? If possible a law one, though a neutral is ok.

EDIT: If you deny it, well I'll have to bear with it, but I'll make Gentaro get really bad with the demon if chaos.

[Rune_Alchemist]

I was thinking 'Resourceful' might be used to describe Gentaro more~ xP
Experienced makes me think of an old man xD

But still, I think him and Keiko might get along well, especially if he gives her a gun xD
definitely wouldn't trust her with one, though xD

[Freikugel]

Well he may give her a gun if the situation requires it, outside of it he will sell it. For yen of course, the currency is Macca, but this is kinda for dealing with demons, he plans to make money to abandon the country after all. Howver, perhaps he may pick Macca if needed, well it all depends on the flow of the game.

[PKMNB0Y]

I'll... Do what I think is fitting.

Just finished the Clock choice (kind of difficult lol), working on post now.

[Happy Go Lucky]

Doin my app now, il have it up in a few hours.

[PKMNB0Y]

If it'll be up in a few hours, I'll have to look at it tomorrow morning; planning to grab sleep after completing the first post (or two, depending on how fast people get things done.)
