Does the guild have a place for its members to sleep or do we have to find our own accommodations? Or is that something that's not going to be part of the game?

[RAM]

((Playergamer, RAM, after we get told where to go, can we just go and do it? The game's just started and I'd prefer and start quickly before the really heavy IC interactions start. I'm not accusing you or anything, it's just I've seen this kind of game where it took forever for anything to happen because of roleplay.))

Yes.

I can't help myself:

Spoiler: Character (click to show/hide)

Name: Kadzar IV
Race: Human
Class: Battlechef
Physical description: A young, thin blonde-haired boy in a chef's hat and apron.
Starting Ability: Julienne Style
Backstory: Kadzar IV was named after the founder of his family's Battlechef dojo, Kadzar I, who perished long ago adventuring in a horrific tomb, along with his two twin sons, Kadzar II and Kadzar III, and his adopted warforged son, Kadbot.

The name for a long time had been considered cursed by his family, and when his parents named him, many of his relatives believed this would bring great ruin upon their family. They were perhaps proven right when, around Kadzar's 14th birthday, the family Battlechef dojo was attacked and razed by the family's rivals, the Pzwazi clan, owners of the dishonorable Warcook academy.

Because most of his family blamed him for their misfortune, he was soon after this cast out of their household. He so far only knows the most basic of the Battlechef techniques, but he hopes to learn them all on his own, so that one day his family will have no choice but to bestow upon him the Iron Chef's Hat, which is the true mark of a Master Battlechef.

Equipment:
shitty sword (basically a kitchen knife)
shitty pot lid shield
2 health potions
whetstone

Yep.

Thats not currently part of the game, but may be later.

Accepted.

And my first skill purchase will be rudimentary telepathy, so I can convey complex concepts with body language. Sir Thaddeus will be joining the boar hunt.

[Khan Boyzitbig]

That would be a wise one. Saves one of us needing to have "speak with animals" or similar.

[Andres]

I like how the combat is done. I was worried it was going to be like other adventure games where combat is done one round at a time with each player having to say what they're going to do before the round starts, thus ensuring that any decently-sized combat encounter takes several days to play out. I'm glad that's not happening.

[RAM]

I like how in the first firght, the dryad is the tank, the paladin is the support, and the healer got the kill.

[Roboson]

Yeah, thats one of the biggest issues with forum RPG combat. There's not a lot of point to each of you saying "Hit it with whatever weapon I'm wielding." And there is no chance to miss either (maybe in special circumstances), so the luck element is basically removed from combat. Basically I assume you're gonna fight smart and then just tell you how that went.

[Roboson]

@ People in the sewers. Technically all three of you could do events like this. Or all of you can pass. Or some of you can do it. Either way I'll wait for everyone to do it, say they aren't doing it, or just wait a fair amount of time. If you want to keep things rolling, either do the event or say you're pass. That way I know everyone has seen it and we can move on.

[Andres]

Alright, I'll just pass myself.

[Roboson]

I mean you wouldn't just say pass, you'd say something IC like "I wouldn't jump in that." or "Its all yours." or something like that.

Name: Dave, Leopard Master
Race: Human
Class: Leopardmancer
Physical description: a fairly average, if unhinged looking, man with a somewhat blocky build. He has spots painted all over his body in magic paint that doesn't come off.
Starting Ability: Leopardsoul(visually it looks like the dragon armor shout from skyrim but leopard themed, I intend for it to be a temporary in combat buff)
Backstory: Dave, Leopard Master was once a normal man, as normal as you can get with a name like "Dave, Leopard Master" anyway. He always had a fascination for large felines(pumas specifically... what, did you think it would be leopards? That's ridiculous), then, one day, while walking through the forest holding a large amount of raw meat, he was encountered by a wounded Leopard that glowed strangely. He fed the leopard the meat that he somehow conveniently knew to bring with him, and it was healed! As a reward, it taught him the secret of Leopardmancy, a strange but powerful magic based on Leopards! He was never the same since. Mostly because what actually happened was that the leopard(which was not glowing) mauled him and when he woke up from his near death coma he was crazy and leopard obsessed. He COULD do Leopardmancy though, so that was a plus.

Equipment:
Shitty mace, shitty shield, Health potion x 2, The(currently unwritten)Leopard Masters Guide to Leopardmancy

Spoiler: This character is apparently a mashup of multiple previous characters that I don't even know how they went together this way (click to show/hide)

Name: Anna Radbot

Race: ?Human?, probably.

Class: Sorceress, specializing in the manipulation of physical and magical energies.

Physical description:  Rather tall, and not particularly visually interesting.

Starting Ability: Energy Shift: Anna saps energy from an opponent's strike (or other energy/motion source, such as a fire, or a falling object, or mana) and uses it elsewhere (perhaps to further negate the attack, perhaps to empower an ally's strike, perhaps as a counterattack directly, perhaps just topping up mana reserves).  This is obviously not a very large amount of anything.

Backstory: A wandering and sort of lonely girl who has barely been scraping by.  She doesn't want to talk about it.

Equipment:
Choose one - -mace- and -shield-.
Choose two - smokebomb x2
Choose one - 'Blank' spellbook (may have notes on things Anna found interesting or important written within)
