too fast for me. Contracts should be longer, more drawn out.

Roll for Hire - OOC - Room for a Ghost
« on: February 24, 2014, 05:10:39 pm »

This is the OOC thread for Roll for Hire. If it isn't your character saying it, say it here. If your character is saying, doing, or smelling it, do it here.

A Brief Description

This is a mercenary RtD in a medieval/fantasy setting. As a group you will accept contracts and earn rewards. The life of a mercenary is not a long one, however. Heads will roll, splatter, ignite, and otherwise cease to serve their usual functions. Luckily, the life of each character will set up the conditions for the creation of the next. You can expand your facilities, stockpile equipment, unlock races, develop new classes, and otherwise change the world your characters live their brief lives in.

Less Brief Descriptions
to be fleshed out further as new aspects of the world are encountered
also, existing entries may be modified or expanded, but never in a way that negates what is already known

Might as well chalk it up to Pathos.
As this point we might as well invoke interpretive dance and call it a day.

I was hoping to post before you reserved a post, so I could endlessly troll you, but you ninja'd me right as I hit Post.
Going to make my character now.

Can I go in with Shield as a weapon? No sword, just two shields.

Should have given you a shield option. Sure, go with a shield. Only one though :P You can have a dagger that has -1 to basically everything if you want.

I'd rather have something without offensive ability, please :P.

You were planning to have a 15 year old magical girl kill Witches by drinking them under the table!? It's original, at least.

Weapon: Shield and Dastana
For sheer cleverness I'll give the Dastana to you. You may not be terribly effective in combat, but you also may just survive. I'll give you a second block roll with a penalty if you miss the first one for the Dastana. Seem fair?

Also, a note:
If anyone has any suggestions for balancing or anything like that, always feel free to tell me

Okay. This concept was not chosen for effectiveness.

I'll go find a pair of tower shields later.
