Who You Gonna Call? [OOC and Info]

Sorry for the lack of progress. Real Life.exe has taken a stranglehold on my free time, and what free time I still have is spent on other things. Feel free to begin without me. I'll try to get around to making my sheet when I get the time...

Totally understandable. Real Life.exe can be a bitch sometimes. Hope everything's going okay for you!

Despite the fact that some of us are obviously busier than others, I think everyone's a bit busier than usual right now. I'm willing to wait at least a little longer, since that includes me too.

But if we go ahead and get started I'm pretty sure White Whisper and I could keep up.

I'm fine with starting whenever (except this weekend: I'll be out of town until I say otherwise), and so is sugary Sweet Puff   

[5:03:52 PM] Eli Mell: Yeah go ahead and start without me.

IT BEGINS

For real this time.

My character is coming along nicely. They have names and everything. Now I just need to learn how to Abilities.

Less than a minute, most likely. Especially since you're making fun of her.

Also yes, it would. I recognize that you made up the characters, which is awesome and gives me stuff to work with, but I feel like (in the case of Bell Mare) it would be difficult to have a companion character working against you... only you control it's working against you, or (in the case of Last Rites) you'd be in danger of using him as a companion character that's not on your character sheet.

I'm not saying you WOULD do these things, of course, and you haven't done anything wrong by controlling Last Rites up to this point. It's just that in most games I've seen, the GM has controlled companion characters, so that's the way I'm used to it.

Also, in case anyone hasn't noticed, I usually wait until a majority (in this case, three) people have posted reactions and/or actions to things before I move the action along. Usually.

Completely understood. As such, I relinquish control of both Last Rites and Bell Mare.

Wait, hold up. Something just occurred to me. Does that imply that you'll be in control of Rhinestone when she uses Channeling?

No, that would be WAY overstepping my boundaries. Since it's your Magic Point/Element talent, during those 15 minutes you have control over Bell Mare and Rhinestone.

Ah. Cool. Thank you. I promise I won't make her overly helpful.

Heeeeey everybody. So I'm a bit late but my sheet is about halfway done. All I need is combat stuff, and I'm looking for build suggestions. Also a picture, but that's less important. Nevermind got one. Anyone know what role or niche I might be needed to fill?

Currently there's a fair amount of crowd-control and indirect damage going on. I really feel like we could use something really offensive, focusing on damage and negative effects. I would reccomend a Wild Abandon or Fleshrender build. Or, if we wanted to try something new we could try and do both! I'll work on the details in the morning ifif you're willing to wait a little.

Yeah, what Crystallite said. Some direct damage must be cool.

Whether or not it works, I would like to extend a bit of praise to Maverick for coming up with an idea that relies intelligently on a ghost's nature i norder to find weaknesses in that ghost's makeup. Very nice.

DM also said you guys could use a tank, and I happen to have over of the most effective tank builds ever left over from a previous game, as well as a pretty dominating multi-nuke build if you really want offense. Only problem is they both need a few levels to really work.

I love how anticlimactic Sweet Puff made the victory of the rap battle. This random stallion makes this giant flame pone - and everyone's main focus is this little filly eating some candy.

Exactly the way it should be.

That is now going in out of context game quotes.

Bronymous has his character sheet finished and we talked about doing this so Hallows and Gallows could show up without a mass of confusing posts.

Welcome to the team, you crazy son-of-a-gun.

Don't move forward yet, I have a response I just don't have time to type it out.

That's fine. I'm about to leave for my weekend convention thing anyhow.

See you guys Mondaaaaaaayyyyyy

I'm okay with a pause.

I wonder who this is going to happen to...

I'm okay with a pause too. It helps me work out how to introduce the various missions you guys can choose from.

Also that pretty nearly happened to Rhinestone.
