@Claw2k11 You don't have to remove them, it makes sense for your location. Hyuon is rich in minerals :)
Just keep in mind that the gold might be quite rare. Enough to keep you on about even footing with the others :)

@o0V0o Let's say I'll get on the IC when we get 2 more characters in the character tab. If you and Claw want, you're welcome to add me in a PM wirh you two and do some secret Pre-planning

I'm all for it. I suppose we'd plan how the game starts, what the situation is at the beginning, that sort of thing, am I correct?

More or less. We'd come up with ways you guys can start interacting, so it's not just posts to me and back :)

Set about making your opening conditions, focusing in the relations between the Institute, the County of Komos, and their respective Duchess :)

@Strange Rodent

Hi, let me just clarify;

Im basically a Tsundere, not a jerk that seeks to disparage and hurt anyone. I like strong humans, and i demand that humans be stronger. I basically use humour and chastisement to get people to do a bit better from time to time.
I generally get on really well with people who accept that. (Ive been in a RP lasting 2 years). If you can't accept that then i should probably leave.

I know that on a personal level you want everyone to become better friends through the course of this RP. I basically want that too. But I'm not willing to bare the cross of a slightly OP'd character in the long term. In fact i'd quit.

With respect to your position of GM, that you have taken it upon yourself to draw this game into existence and manage it. You say i am not a GM or Co-GM, yes i have not applied to that position (too lazy), but i have in fact GM'd 3 games in the past on Roll20 voice and map. Lasting on average 8 months. I know my stuff and i will not be silenced, especially if we are to be friendly to each other. Below is my comment to Claw.

I've gotten inspiration from this so that you didn't think I just made it up.


Accepted.

Also, I apologize if I've offended you with my sheet and I can see how it was OP. I'm really sorry about that.


Yeah its alright I'm not offended. There isn't some great war between us two :) its just i thought you can do a better character and i have to say it.

The only thing that scares me is if you couldn't take a little smack-talk about your game. And from the looks of it you clearly can take it... so.

People want to turn me into adolph satan for saying something sometimes. But i try to make sure i can take just as much smack talk as the next guy.

Have a go at my character. Go on. I know I'm not perfect :)

Hope thats ok.

Maybe that navy parked outside your harbour could be my navy? We could have a mutual defence pact and i could keep the harbour corridor open for food transport to keep you from being starved out of your fortresses. I might have to wangle more ships for my fleet though, i don't know how many is enough...

I think the main issue is that the GM is asking for some tact in regards to "smack-talk" rather than being standoffish. Not gonna lie, the post in question did seem a bit too hostile/aggressive imo.

Oh, no worries, I have a fairly thick skin when it comes to these kind of things. Though I've surpassed the stage where I make OP characters, that tendency still pops up once in a while and I tend to make a character without checking if said character might not be a bit too strong.

The only real "flaw", if it can even be called that, in your sheet is the wording for your character appearance, it's a bit different from what I'm used to, though I guess that's up to personal taste... so no, as far I can see, no real flaws in your sheet.

Sure, especially since what with my county's somewhat dwindling economy, it would need a bit of naval protection of its trade. As for the extra ships, we could say that my leader is sending a sort of a "tax" to your guy so that he can maintain a slightly larger fleet, is that good?

I understand what you're saying, I use the same tactic in regards to some people when I think they can do better (coward is a personal favourite of mine). But it's probably good to realise that there's a lot you can't convey through text, and it really just seems like you're being abrasive for the sake of it. If you're going to do that, do something to let people know that you're just using humor and chastisement, rather than just looking like a jerk. Claw seems cool with it, so I'm willing to let it lie there.

In regards to the GM thing, I'm sure you're a great GM, but you're not *the* GM. Go and help others with their sheets as much as you like - I encourage it - just refrain from accepting or denying people's sheets, because that could potentially make future members quite confused, and lead to them confirming a character even if it takes issue with the secret lore. Not silencing you, just taking issue with what seemed like a power play.

Oh im not gonna tell people I'm a GM when I'm not. And i'd quickly tell them to not go confirming other people characters, jeez if they did something like that they'd immediately out themselves as not right for the game... i think.

I think the main issue is that the GM is asking for some tact in regards to "smack-talk" rather than being standoffish. Not gonna lie, the post in question did seem a bit too hostile/aggressive imo.


People are not always going to talk the way you want them to. I like people who build up a thick skin, its useful for survival.

You say tact and to be honest I'm pretty sure i have my tactic down. My tactic is honesty. If i modify my honesty too much it fails. This is called manipulation. And i despise it as a form of weakness. Im generally very good at logic too. Anyway enough of this. Im not going to respond to this question any more, it'll clutter up the RP.

Alright, but watch yourself, and think about whether it might be too agressive. i'm willing to be lenient, but only if you'll meet me halfway, which i think is more than fair

All that aside, now would be a great time for anyone lurking or working on a sheet to let me know. i wanna get this started soon, and it'd be great if we had more than 2 starting chars :)

(also, sorry for my piss poor capitalisation. My i key is broken so i have it on my pasteboard, and i couldn't be arsed to re copy and paste capital and lowercase)
