And Irony and I come up with very similar characters.  D'oh.


Well, in stats.  In personality, not really.

For all those playing humans and taking Badge Mastery: Shouldn't you have two badges from the known badges pool?

[Toaster]

I thought that at first, but then I decided it meant you can HAVE two unmastered badges, not GET two.

Nope, it's rules-as-written. You don't start with two, you just get to equip/build two at the same time. There's lotsa ways to get badges.

Also I like how everyone's taking Looting eye. This is some serious wide-scale metagaming thing.

[Toaster]

As TWoOtA shows, we here at B12 have a serious thing for loot.

Since I was right on the fence between it and HP plus, I think I'll switch it out.

[Blade Master Model 42]

...Hm, nah, I think I'll stick with extra FP, since my racial ability makes casting the skills of others... expensive. Perhaps later.

I take it this is the result of the FFSCC's efforts?

[IronyOwl]

Oh, I see. Well, as it was a FFS game, I thought that there were going to be some drawings at some point.

Who said there wouldn't be?


Ruby says hi and strongly recommends accepting her into the game.

[Powder Miner]

I know I'm going to whip my char up an FE mug if I get accepted.

[freeformschooler]

I take it this is the result of the FFSCC's efforts?

In essence, yes. This is the first truly "clean" game world I've built and run (no evil Power Stars/mysterious abominations/spacetime vortexes threatening to swallow up reality at a moment's notice).

Notice how it's also one of the first to have no true natural magic. Everything's depending on these badge things. Kinda makes you wonder where magic in the Freeformverse comes from.

And now I wish my character was dark enough to want to create/bring one of those into existence to feed on its power.

Does magic come from magic?

Spoiler: Gwoopa (click to show/hide)

Race: Koopa
Gender: Yes
Bio: Gwoopa was a Troopa, a rare sight in Toad Town, especially with the nefarious Bowser giving all shelled people a bad name. Gwoopa lived with a pretty traditional family, a matriarchal clan of Troopas lead by gold-shelled witches. He was the first male gold-shelled Troopa born to that clan in over a century, which was quite a major event. He was trained in witchcraft, but left at a moderately young age due to not liking that he was spending all his time around witches (this was a bit before puberty). Gwoopa settled in Toad Town at this stage, lived from his magic and wits for a while, and joined the army as soon as he could. Of course, being such a rarity, the King hired him as a personal guard, although his actual duties were more like buttling and entertainment. Eventually, he managed to prove himself capable of self-defense, and was transferred to Peach's security detail as Peach's birthday present. He's served dutifully, if a bit sarcastically, ever since.
Okay, this departs a LOT from canon. Let me know if I need to stick closer, and I'll figure something out.

Name: Roger
Race: Pokey, please. Or see below if not.
Gender: Plant
Bio: If you grow up in a cave, and rely on photosynthesis, you're gonna have trouble. There's not much light in a cave. But there's this hole in the roof of the cave where it first sprouted. This is where its family lived.
It had the advantage of sprouting where the light shone all day, instead of being shadowed most of the time. It got greedy, and kept pushing its siblings away, back into the shade. When it rained, it claimed most of the rain, too.
It took it's name, Roger, when a human tromping through got accidentally spiked on it, and expired. It felt guilty, for once, and it's family took advantage of this, heaping on guilt until it could stand their company no more, and fled.
After a long time lost in the dark caves, it found the exit. Hungry from lack of light and water, it was desperate, and greedily shoved a goomba out of the sun. When this goomba protested, Roger realized that it was being mean again.
So burdened by guilt, it decided to start to be generous and giving instead. And what's more generous than saving people from danger? And that's what heroes do, so it decided to become a hero - the first pokey hero.

Spoiler: Second choice (click to show/hide)

Name: Roger
Race: Koopa
Gender: Male
Bio: A coastal koopa, Roger grew up watching other koopas wax their shells and ride the waves. But also watching them wash up, in pain and hiding.
Gifted with a badge from a mysterious stranger, Roger turned his attention to helping these injured surfers. When they felt strong enough to come out of their shells again, he'd send them back to the sea, with a grin asking them to have fun for him.
When another, more talented healer moved in though, Roger knew his work in town was done. He wanted to expand his abilities, and to do that he'd have to venture out into the world.
The safest way was to join some other folks heading out. Roger found a group of adventurers passing through, and joined them. He was going to be a hero, especially for other heroes!
