Current @Riven Wright that is, in fact, the point of door-to-door proselytizing; membership retention. Deliberately put into uncomfortable interactions with outsiders, make them scared to leave The Group

I just saw the new Masters of The Universe, would recommend, especially if, like me, you were in the target audience back in the 1980's

Bio

Bios are stupid; oh, sure, everyone can see them, but I bet nobody reads them.

Rude hand gestures and shpadoinkle, there.

No, I wasn't drunk when I wrote this, but I was very tired.

@tobiax will do
Another Role, this time thanks to the imagination of @Hazard Bits!

Scrapper
The scrapper isn't guaranteed to survive the encounter, but they don't go down without a fight! any time you see a party member put up a hell of a fight, or just survive something that would have killed anyone else, you're watching a Scrapper in action! They actually tend to start out with better Odds than other roles, but, are just as likely to over-play those Odds, and run out of luck.

NO MORE PSYCHICS, PLEASE. I've seen several character sheets, so far, and too many of them are psychics. Genuine psychics, as I described in the intro post, are supposed to be rare to the setting.

This setting is best described as "Survival Horror"; the intent in a lot of these situations is that at least some of the horror will be derived from the uncertainty of survival. This is a critique I've leveled at other, similar games: the horror is rather undercut if the humans are immediately brought onto a more level playing field.

The timeline for when the odd events began is speculated no further back than 2 years prior to the start of game. I've had 2 people (I refuse to name names, I'm not trying to shame anybody) miss this, and it's the FIRST SENTENCE OF THE INTRO.

I want people to feel welcome to take interest and apply, but please, PLEASE, if you're going to try and get into my game, READ THE PROVIDED MATERIAL, and consider reading through the entire thread, as there is some game relevant information through-out, at this point.
@BenG85 formatted it better :)


I saw that, thank you
@Jasper19 a little more formatting on your file, please? the centering is fine, but maybe either bold the file categories or put them above their entries like a label? it will make it easier to read
@Jasper19per our pm, you may go ahead move your file to the character tab ^_^

looking forward to seeing what other players come up with!
I'll leave that up to you; it would make a little more sense as to why you and your friends might have been alone, there, with no other witnesses, but, I'm not prepared to rule it out. I don't know how busy that part of the coast is at the time of year the encounter took place, and things of such nature.

I'm taking this opportunity to clarify something- For any prospective players, if you decide to choose from my example roles, please only take ONE; these roles can all be very diverse, and as such there's a lot of overlap, trying to be more than one won't improve your Odds, so to speak, but instead gives you more to work into your character, depending on the role. save yourselves some trouble, and keep it simple. I'll still allow people to propose unique roles during character creation, but again, don't overburden yourself and keep it simple, and make sure it makes sense.

I'm also officially calling it, and plan to edit the information as necessary- it's rare, but the Nightmare Zone CAN manifest during daylight hours, usually resulting in something pretty nasty (Like Graboids; ie, witnesses/survivors unlikely)
@Jasper19 I'm only going to ask a couple changes, you did alright! I originally define the phenomenon as happening exclusively at night, but, I'm pretty satisfied with your encounter, so, I'm willing to make an exception. Congrats, if this rp had already started, you'd now be responsible for a retcon :P

I'll go into detail on some changes I'd suggest, in a PM, and award you your WP and such there as well. Don't move your file into the character section, just yet.
taking a moment to read the character. I'll let you know the exact numbers in a pm, but, it's going to be fairly normal for a character to start with zero fear, barring some special circumstance. I'll also let you know about your Odds at the same time
And there you are, Co-GM :P
