[My Name is Immaterial]

Or not.
Update today, but before I do, I wanted to ask for some feedback. How are we feeling about everything? Combat? Story? Challenge?

Also, you've got three Capture the Flag fights in front of you, but depend on how this first one goes, I can cut it down.

[My Name is Immaterial]

I'm not pushing this forward till someone responds to something.

[GiglameshDespair]

Huh. It's not shown up on my Updated Topics.

EDIT: Unless you accidentally didn't post, I'm not sure what to say. I imagine our plan is 'kill (or knock out, whatever) 'em all', but further planning would be done when we could see the area we were in.

[My Name is Immaterial]

Harbingerjm posted in the IC thread, and I posted in the OOC thread, asking for feedback.

[GiglameshDespair]

Personally, I'd recommend only two more combats, or some kind of intrigue or something happening either before or simultaneously.

[My Name is Immaterial]

I will be busy with moving into and getting settled in college for the next week or two. This is the last update for a while, sadly.

I was going to do the same as Mutt, but then I realized I don't have Knowledge(local) either. This is why I like 13th Age's Background system, because it helps with abstracting out skills and making them more character/story driven instead. My character should have at least some local knowledge of important people, seeing as how she was raised as a noble, but I don't have the skill, so it doesn't work. If this were 13th Age, I would have a Background called "Raised by Nobles" or something along those lines, which could cover a variety of things like etiquette, local knowledge, or even, I dunno, fashion sense.
(Pssst! Can you guys tell I really like 13th Age as a system?)

[GiglameshDespair]

Actually, can't say I've ever heard of 13th age.

I guess Mutt wouldn't really know people, having lived isolated in the woods then been locked in a cell for a coupla years.

Spoiler: Gushing about 13A (click to show/hide)

13th Age is to 4e what Pathfinder was to 3.5. Made by two guys who worked on 3.5 and 4e, and trying to cut down on the mechanics that get in the way of storytelling. There aren't a ton of skills or saves, and the lore of the world and the characters' relationships with it actually tie in with the core mechanics in the form of Icon Dice. There's also the One Unique Thing mechanic that makes sure players can all have a chance to decide what makes their character important and to explore that thing in more detail throughout the campaign.
I really hope I can get my RL group together so we can play it. It's a really great game.

Sorry, I may have to start a new thread just to talk about 13th Age in more detail...

[GiglameshDespair]

Reading a little bit on it, sounds like it'd work well on PbP. That One Unique Thing sounds pretty cool.

[AlleeCat]

I may start up a PbP 13th Age campaign, actually. Seeing as how Arrowflight kind of died due to my own inactivity. I think everyone just sort of lost interest.

[GiglameshDespair]

Well, you'd have at least one player.

[My Name is Immaterial]

Make that two.

[GiglameshDespair]

I think my next character in something will be an archer. With a bow bigger than them. Think Silver Knight from Dark Souls.

[AlleeCat]

It's up. Tell me if the .pdf works or not.
