[OOC] The Dark Ages (Survival in the Supernatural Wasteland)

[Athinar]

@jasonwolf That reminds me, I'm working on another character. The concept isn't really hammered out, yet, but I have an idea.

Also, I got my post up. Feel free to react to it however you feel fit, everyone.

[jasonwolf]

@Athinar if I reminded you because of the CIA I'm more than happy to let anyone in after submitting the 100 page application :D

but seriously I will happily move around NPCs in the archives for people both for seats and for if anyone visits.

[MrDidact]

@Dead Cruiser Just waiting on you before I post. There's no rush of course.

[jasonwolf]

@MrDidact are we doing "official" post orders? Or just everyone get in one so then we move on?

[MrDidact]

Once everyone posts once I update

[shaitarn]

Just a suggestion, but if we're waiting for everyone to post, maybe we should bring in a rule about how long we wait before moving the story on? Like 'if you don't post within 4 or 5 days, your characters become NPCs moved by the GM until you get back'. I'm not suggesting killing any characters off, but I've seen games die before because one or two people dropped out and stalled the whole thing.

[MrDidact]

@shaitarn It's a good suggestion, I'll post if Dead Cruiser does not by tomorrow afternoon.

[jasonwolf]

@MrDidact Also what's your thoughts on joined posts? Been considering asking certain people just since there are some interesting conversations I'd like in full.

@shaitarn if joined posts are a-OK'd then when Isaac returns hopefully it'd be a good time to do some of that workshop stuff, so if you'd be interested in a joined post that'd be great.

[Dead Cruiser]

Work has been keeping me busy. My character is pretty unconnected to the rest of the goings-on so if I still haven't managed to get a post up, feel free to move on without me. I'll catch up when I can.

@jasonwolf

Sure, Nick likes to keep busy!

[Dead Cruiser]

Lo, my much-anticipated post. Now we can move on with nobody left behind.

[MrDidact]

@jasonwolf As long as you work it out with the others it'll be fine.

It was a hectic day my dears so I'll try to get a post up tomorrow, it'll likely be up in the evening. Its going to start being noisy.

[jasonwolf]

@MrDidactwell of course it'll be noisy. Isaac had a cannon arm, dozer isn't exactly subtle, and Hayden won't shut up about his hunting trips in burma!

Seriously though very excited for this. Already have great ideas on arcs for my guys. This leads to a new question can our characters grow in strength? Isaac likely will end up with a few more upgrades as time goes, and I'm thinking about long term jake and how something has to happen to once again really test him and I'm thinking he may slowly (very slowly for all of them really) gain more power.

All vague thoughts in my 2am brain. But yeah maybe get Isaac a few more inventions as resources change, and jack gain more attuinmwnt to death.

[MrDidact]

Ok I posted. Things are starting to heat up and I look forward to what you guys will do.

You can get more resources but many characters are already very powerful so I'm not sure about power upgrades

[Athinar]

I'll get a post up later today!

[jasonwolf]

hmmm I almost want to see if Isaac can diplomacy the human hoard since he's one of the few humans, and then I remember metal arm scares the shit out of people. Oh well. Would I be ruining anything if I had Isaac launch straight for the roof and secure that first? I'm fine with messing up comet's orders, but I mean is there a something up there that Isaac would encounter? PM me.@MrDidact

[Athinar]

Ooh! I had an idea! Due to her popularity with quite a few people from all groups, throughout the Citadel, could Dozer be elected Mayor, even though she doesn't really want to? Like, everyone puts her on the ballot, and she doesn't really want to get the position, but Cassandra and Pariah convince her to do it. It would lead to some major shenanigans, which I'm sure everyone is fond of!

[MrDidact]

@Athinar There are several candidates for Mayor, any PC could conceivably be it if the players put their name up, but Dozer would definitely be a good pick. If the other players want to go for it then she probably would be it, they can have their PCs campaign on her behalf. If no player wants their PC to be Mayor, I'll basically choose an NPC based on how the PCs influence the election.

[Athinar]

@MrDidact Cool.

[jasonwolf]

@Athinar I'm not gonna say any specifics but there would be competition indeed. I think we all really know who i am talking about though.
