@Yankee We've been using pinterest for the images of our NPCs. You can use this as a jumping off point and search through similiar images. He's actually the faceclaim of my original character and one of the NPCs in this game. Also, if you prefer and are more comfortable with it, a description is completely fine.

...for the skills, are we to come up with our own, or choose from the ones listed next to the descriptions of our character's faction?

@calliope

You can choose your own. However, the skills tagged to a faction will have an NPC there that can instruct your character on that specific skill, allowing you to level it up once. If you'd rather pick another skill that is not native to the faction, you're free to do so. There are other ways to level up skills in this game such as finding literature in some abandoned library, but having an available teacher is easiest.

...do I need to divide my character's stats with a number involved? As in, I have 20 total and must give points to each category so altogether they equal 20?

@calliope

You start with a total of 8 points that you can divide how you would like into your stats. I'd recommend checking the list of skills to determine where you want them. Or if you want to go the RPing route, you can make your character as you'd like to portray them. Each stat can have a maximum of 6 points so you may max out one at the start of the game.

There are ways to earn more points over the course of the game.

- The Wilds. The world outside the walls of Ba Sing Se. The Wilds is the name given to the mostly desolate lands surrounding the last city. As stated previously, much of the land has been ruined by the 'Great War'. The former Bending nation's capitals were destroyed by bombs and surrounding cities were abandoned shortly after, leaving much of the planet empty, left to be reclaimed by the world. Thanks to heavy synergy radiation as a result of the weapons used by the Republic, much of flora and fauna has been changed. The exact nature of this change is still unknown but the people who have survived in the wilderness long enough to tell their tales, share stories of beasts unlike any they've seen before. Twisted corruptions of the wildlife they once knew, roaming the land ever hungry with an appetite impossible to satiate. The cities that bore the brunt of the destruction are actively avoided. Some believe the synergy saturating the air can slowly drive a man insane, sapping him of his will until his mind is no longer his and he's taken. Others say the air is poisonous and will eventually kill any who enter. Still, there are those brave souls who throw caution to the wind and venture into these zones, discovering within whatever treasure or old knowledge they can find. Notable locations include the Synergy Power Plant that is situated in the abandoned husk of what was once Republic City. To the south of Ba Sing Se lies the expansive Si Wong Desert. An ocean of sand nearly impossible to cross. Si Wong Desert. b1 The ocean of sand and heat that stretches from the walls of the city south, past the horizon. At one point in time, it had been bordered by a large river that connected the Full Moon and Chameleon bays, effectively halting the desert's march. In the years after the war, the change in climate eventually dried up the North bay, draining the river of its source and allowing the desert to expanded further before stopping again at the foot the city. Of the many dangers in this region, the most prominent are sandstorms which occur frequently and have become extremely violent. Powerful winds can whip up a wall of dust and sand that is capable of tearing through flesh. However, these are typically formed closer to the desert's heart and will only approach the Lower Ring on very rare occasions. There is strong belief that a tunnel system exists below the surface of the sand as sightings of fauna remain constant. The only way they'd be able to survive the storms is if they had access to shelter. Tu Zin. b2 _ _ _ _ _ See Tu Zin. _ _ _ _ Synergy Power Plant. b3 Formerly the Republic City spirit portal. The city and surrounding area have been reduced to little more than the plant itself and the living areas and shops necessary to support it and its employees. The work pays well but is also unusually dangerous for what would otherwise be a simple job. There are constant and sporadic accidents that occur on site putting some people off to such a career. Oddly enough, the accidents have increased in frequency in the last few years and some believe it's coming to a head. Extra safety measures have been put into place and routine maintenance checks have been increased. Like Ba Sing Se, the plant has a small wall built around it that is continuously patrolled. The process of collecting and refining energy was developed by the Moon family alongside Varricks. Eventually, the entrepreneur left the energy business allowing Moon to take over. This plant is still owned and operated by them today. It feeds the city power via a pipe system traveling the distance between itself and a storage facility located just inside the Lower Ring. _ Fauna. b4 While still existing in the world in and out of Ba Sing Se, many familiar species from the last century have gone extinct. Most large animals such as the flying bison no longer exist while many smaller creatures can be bought for exorbitant prices if you know where to look. However, usually, only those in the Upper Ring can afford to purchase and care for a pet. Beyond the walls, any wildlife that still thrives has adapted to a dramatically changed environment. Some were lucky enough to live on land mostly untouched by the war while others have mutated, changed in surprising and strange ways from prolonged exposure to lingering synergy radiation. Most have turned feral. Others have evolved, exhibiting behavior that seems similar to spirits from the spirit world. There are many who argue that they are spirits but since so few have ventured out into the wilderness to see these phenomena themselves, truth remains but a rumor. Pets are allowed but must be approved by the GM. ???. b5 _ _ _ _ _ Come here, child. _ _ _ _ ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________..

@calliope Posting here is definitely okay. And yes, your character sheets will eventually be moved to the Character tab but please post the skeleton here first or you can also submit them to myself or @Chrysocoma via PM so we can look it over. You're also right about the IC tab. That's where all the fun happens lol.

And you're doing great by the way. Feel free to ask about anything and also welcome to the Guild! I hope you enjoy your time here on the site and also here with us.
