I sent in my backstory thatkid. Is it okay?

Also is that one fan setting, Genius the something, potentially going to be in this game?
Haven't gotten a chance to look at it yet.

As for Genius?
Hahahahahahahahahaha
No.
Not all homebrew/fandom work is shit. Genius is shit.

Ah, I was actually expecting to be PM'ed with it, since you don't have it in your account already I thought you were trying to protect yourself or something... but I suppose that works. Just give me a moment to fiddle with this a bit...

EDIT: Damn... I didn't know gmail had file attachment limits. And it's only one and a half megs over. T.T

Okay, that means I'll have to compress it. Do you have an unrar application?

EDIT2: You know what? I'll just zip it and send it to you. We'll see if there are any problems.

@Phantom: I don't reserve a spot for people until I have a character sheet or a backstory. The reason being that I've seen too many people reserve spots on this forum, and then never make good on the reservation. Consider the first half of the application a down payment of sorts, I guess.

Alright I can understand that, I did that myself recently with the Discworld RTD.  I wouldn't have reserved, but I was on my phone at the time, I should have something for you by the end of today, unless something intervenes.

EDIT: Actually, I've never played this system before, is there anything I should know before jumping in?


And owlbears always creep in every GM's subconscious ,waiting for good moment to strike ... Seriously if a game can have owlbears in it, it will! However that's just my previous D&D experience talking so i can't be sure :P
Yes, they creep in some's subconscious in a different way than others...

Attributes are divided along the lines of mental, physical, social not power, finesse, resistance. There's been a bit of confusion about that, because of the way the online character sheet is set up, and even I ended up second-guessing myself at one point.

Otherwise, uh...if you want a feel for things, reading the flavor text never hurts! All of the flavor stories are very well done.

As long as you have the core rulebook (and remember what thatkid said <<;) you should be fine. I've never played it before either, but it's actually incredibly simple compared to other systems.

The thing is I don't have the core rulebook, and have no way of obtaining one. No internet money currently. 

What I should have asked is: Is it possible to play without having a rulebook or any prior knowledge of the rules?

If you would be so kind as to come into the irc channel (#tknWoD at irc.freenode.net) I can assist you there.

I'm willing to send you a pdf copy like I did for Xeron, if you like.

the irc.freenode.net thing is actually a server, not a website.

Try that, it's an in-browser IRC client/widget/thing
