GROUP INTRO POST
GROUP INTRO POST
Welcome to the game, wild things!
Since we have an influx of a few new people at once, here's a group intro post for everyone that's new this app cycle to say hi!
If you're new, feel free to introduce yourself and your character in the comments below!
✦ You can feel free to use this post for setting up starting CR. The game's player plotting/cr meme will also be posted on 4/7/18. So keep an eye out!
✦ Much like many games, the game rotates between periods of plot and downtime. Unlike other games, the periods of downtime are set in temporary camp locations instead of the same game setting. The game is currently in a camp cycle at Melai Temple. Your IC intro posts should take place in that setting and you're free to tag any other posts set there. Please see the Melai Temple post for timelines on when the plot will move forward. ICly, your characters can be handwaved as having arrived only a day or so after camp started.
✦ Please take a look at the Crossroads Post that's up and start thinking about the potential choices. When the camp cycle is over, characters will ICly have a chance to discuss which way to go and have a vote.
✦ Feel free to post on the network! So far, everyone's been working on their first logs but the network is open as well.
✦ The game has a setup where if a player has more than one character, they can only have one character on the main quest (but can swap them at any time). Currently, all characters in game are on the main quest. On 4/6/18 there will be a plot where players with more than one character will have their secondary characters sent to the Brugh for the first time. These characters will then explore the Brugh and broadcast their exploration over the network for other characters on the main quest to participate in.
Garviel Loken
I'm Bill, I'm bringing in Garviel Loken from that most Grimdark (They invented the phrase!) of franchises warhammer 40k, specifically the slightly more noblebright and far more interesting time period of it called the Horus Heresy.
Also known as Paradise Lost in Space with Laser guns.
He's a big knightly warrior with a lot of PTSD and daddy issues. He looks about 30 but is about 100 years old, and just got done telling his gene-dad to Eff off basically and then got exploded out a spaceship into vacuum before being retrieved after a failed mission.
He's also highly leery of magic or psionics so this is going to be.
Hilarious. Fortunately he's also a cooperative, philosophical and somewhat empathetic protector of humanity so it'll be fun for his own biases to war with his own nobler impulses.
I am 100% sure that definitely won't ping anyone else in here at -all-
Yes sir.
As a note I'm a LARPER and re-enactor so I may be slow-tagging during certain weekends of the month, but I'll always keep you informed and do my best to phone tagged while not leading armies fighting evil monsters elsewhere (Or being the dumbest redcoat with a musket)
Btw I am -very- canon familiar with the Fate/nonsense, which you'll see me plurk about a lot at Grimdork.
Re: Garviel Loken
Hi Bill! I'm Lisa, and I play Dixon from Three Billboards (who has an opt-out here if you would like it). I'm super looking forward to this CR, it looks like Garviel is going to add a really interesting element to the mix.
Is PM the best way to reach you OOCly?
Re: Garviel Loken
And yeah, his mixture of nobility and distrust in magic heavy settings is always a fun line to toe

Anywho, I've got Robbie Baldwin from Marvel Comics and Tim Drake from DC, both of whom are significantly younger than Garviel, buuut WHO KNOWS. Tim has no magic and is in fact roughing it, so that may be a point in his favor.
Housekeeping: Robbie does have a small content warning for self harm, so I'm advising everyone to go here if they want to make a blanket statement of "don't ever mention it" or give permission.

He's a ninja who's very much into magic and technology, and blending the two. Nice to meet you, dude!

The sheer level of our canon ridiculousness will be extreme.
Hoho who might you bring in. (please don't be a chaos worshipper that will get violent in a hilarious hurry)
no subject
and it might be Mita Ashyn from Lord of The Night!
SPOILERS FOR THAT but she's a formerly-respected inquisitional psyker acolyte who had a bit of a crisis of faith, uncovered a three-faction conspiracy, and then ran off the exploding planet with a chaos space marine she was trying to track down and kill hours ago lmao.
So not a outright chaos worshipper just yet, but she sure hangs out with heretics and thinks the imperium sux. (she does get defensive in a hilarious hurry though)
