First buzzing, then voices.

Actually, it's supposed to be just the one voice. But multiple voices is fine too.
Ah, my bad.

One voice is fine, if you'd rather have it that way. It can go either way, with what I have in mind.

Hm, well, the original concept was one voice, so I'd prefer that, if you can manage to finagle it together. :P

It works for me. Consider my post retconned.

Hmm, thinking of taking this first post literally, might have inadvertently stumbled upon something interesting.  :P

Hey filiusenox, can you pretty please stop using apostrophes around Angel's name? I read a lot of fanfiction, and in fanfiction you use apostrophes mostly to denote either quotations within dialogue, things a character is thinking, or to refer an imposter, and it's kind of frustrating to have to repeatedly snap myself out of that mindset. In all honesty I keep imagining Angelus from BtVS in your character's place and that... that's not a good thing. <<;

I was trying to use it to show it was his nickname.
(Shortened from Angel-Face...)

I'll go change it now.

Edit:Fixed.

Thanks for that. :)

I got that, but you don't really need to mark a nickname as a nickname. I've read a lot of stories, and I've never come across someone differentiating a nickname from a real name. In a lot of cases, the nickname is used more often than the real name anyway, and marking it as different only creates a jarring effect, which is appropriate for an imposter character (who likely won't be around long anyway, so it doesn't get to the point that it's annoying) but isn't appropriate for a protagonist. There's no way I could've endured it for the entirety of the RP. :P

But I love owlbears... :(

But nah, nWoD hasn't shown any sign of having owlbears. I think that's a purely DnD thing, anyway.

"O.O"

Um... well then. I guess we'll have to wait for thatkid's input first. <<;

I think he was just mentioning owlbears as an example though. A hypothetical situation.

Tried writing backstory down. Had to leave, turned off compy. Come back. Haven't saved it.

Perhaps I should just describe it to you in IRC or something...

Aaand now everything makes sense. Now I'm going to have to worry about my GM creating doomsday devices out of magic telescopes and armies of undead owlbears. Thanks, Phantom. Thanks a lot.
