As someone who once unironically used grey-on-black text .... don't. Its impossible to read on OLED screens, which include most modern phones.

Sometimes I feel like this site is a Thai buffet. I'm sure there's delicious things here, but for the life of my I can't find anything that really speaks to me right now.

When not prepping for my D&D table, I should spruce up some of my stuff here. Not all of my old content is the garbage I presumed it was. But some things I wrote we won't talk about ....

Reflections on characters past: "Adi really was a spoiled brat. How did I ever think her motivations were compelling?"

This is gonna split the players. Much as I like the idea of a pilot, you're gonna have a lot of players in different places not interacting. While my formal recommendation to nix this field will kill one of my prospective character concepts, I stand by that advice.
Hi all! Sorry I've been quiet, I had three tests on three consecutive days this week.
. . .
We've got quite a few Lost Ones in already. Hmmmm. I think I still want to create one for them, but we shall see.


God I know that feeling. And if it helps remotely in balancing, I was leaning Amaranth, even though you could possibly argue the character backstory arc would fit better going to Lost Ones. I think the character mental profile makes more sense to be with Wolves.
You have my attention. I'll be keeping an eye on your progress. You will receive a more formal interest from me when a CS template is available. ;)
@YoshiSkittlez Its not exactly your traditional character-building problem I face. Its a means & ends problem. Within the character's backstory arc the ends that tie seamlessly into this premise exist, but the means which create those ends don't work. Removing the problematic means breaks the desired character arc. That's basically what I'm working through. If/when I can't come up with a solution down the road I'll message you about it.
I'm gonna wait a few more days before I call time of death on the previous RP occupying Kira and then I'm gonna see about a sheet. Not entirely sure how I'm gonna make it work (the character was never designed for this) but I'll see what I can do.
I'm tempted to commit a variation of Kira, but she's in a wierd place right now: her current RP is flatline but there's some fluid plans for a revival so nobody has called time of death yet. I don't double-dip characters so that mess will have to get sorted.
... suddenly have one extraordinary ability that relates to their God/Goddess ...


I desire to know more along this vein.

EDIT: and a question. Are the primordial deities of greek mythology off limits or no? One of those was in my list of prospects.
That doesn't tell me all that much honestly. You can't really be worried about spoilers when discussing the fundamental worldbuilding; that's fairly high on the list of things relevant to interested parties. In such case let me ask for a few specifics.

Tech base? What indistinguishable-from-magic devices are considered standard? What is considered bleeding-edge?
Playable species? Its suggested that there are more options here than just what's been presented. is that a "make your own alien" type deal, or are there additional prefab species hashed out?
Relevant powers? You talked about an alien collective, the remaining human population of Earth, and a third non-human species at odds with that collective. Would there be these powers/factions represented within the area the player characters inhabit and do they play significant roles in that area?

These are the kinds of questions I require answers to write a character, write for that character, and even assess if this is something I want in on. You're welcome to keep this under wraps instead, but it's at the risk of being too enigmatic for me to join.
@Genni Right properly reminds my of Lyra my little sadist. @Ubermensch I require more details on just what brand of sci-fantasy you're selling.
