I'd probably be interested, if there's room. I can bring in an inventor or a summoner, both lvl 1.

If 6-01 fills up too soon, I might have to pull out of the game, the character I'd want to play is in the middle of a bounty, but if it finishes before the game starts I'd love to play!
I think I'm probably not gonna have the time to commit to the whole round robin, but have fun!
I will tentatively throw my hat in the ring, I haven't GMed on pbp before and I'd need to make sure I can handle the time commitment, but if I can it would definitely be something I'm interested in.
I’m starting the game, shortly! Just give me a couple hours to set things up!Scratch that. I need to rest, then look up how to form a fresh forum, for hosting a PbP game. Unless everyone is okay with playing through Discord. Are you still planning on running the Confirmation?
I'd be interested! I haven't done society play in a while, but I was thinking about getting back into it, and I've got a couple of characters I haven't had much of an opportunity to use that could work.
Alright, in that case, I think I'll go with the oracle vigilante, primarily because I can probably play the alchemist in a different game and have it work, whereas the oracle vigilante looks like it would work best specifically with Hell's Rebels in 2E.
My only concern right now is that there isn't a person with Medicine, but when there's lay on hands on the table then it isn't a HUGE deal. The alchemist I built has medicine (it's not great, since he doesn't have a great wisdom modifier), and has Elixir of Life as one of his formulae, so I could go with him to fix that. My oracle has heal, but he can only cast it twice a day at first level, so it probably would be a better idea to go with the alchemist.
Alright, I still haven’t made a decision yet, but I’ve got stat blocks and info for both for everyone to look at if they want to, assuming everything in the background works for the campaign. Edrakk Chrysanthemum:

Other Abilities advanced alchemy, formula book, infused reagents, quick alchemy, research field, tian xia, toxicologist Born in the city of Goka to Kora and Tak-Tak Chrysanthemum, Edrakk grew up helping out in his parents’ restaurant, the Early Bird’s Breakfast. They were by no means wealthy, but the restaurant gave them enough income to survive. Edrakk quickly became interested in cooking, as well as medicine and biology, and it was clear that he needed to get a good education if he was going to “spread his wings”, as it were. Eventually, they saved up enough money to send him to Alabaster Academy in Kintargo. Once he began his studies, he discovered that he not only has a passion for creating gourmet dishes, but also for studying the opposite: poisons, venoms, and other deadly concoctions. Currently, he spends his day-to-day life studying and trying to avoid getting his ingredients mixed up. When Lord-Mayor Barzillai Thrune took over in Kintargo, his first reaction was to try and avoid whatever conflicts might arise. While he disliked the new regime, he figured he has more important things he needs to be worrying about, and it wasn’t like there was anything he could do. However, he took particular offense at Proclamation the First, as he fears that hunting ravens isn’t far from hunting him and other tengu, as well as Proclamation the Seventh, so he is now looking to try and help where he can.

After one particularly risky theft, to avoid being caught by the guards, he hid in the cart of a traveling circus. When they found him, they decided to take him in, and he joined their troupe. He discovered that he had a knack for performing, and particularly enjoyed attempting feats of acrobatics. He travelled with them for most of his life, exploring the world, and eventually becoming a follower of Desna. Recently, he returned to his home city of Kintargo to try and continue his career in the arts. When martial law was declared, Rigel quickly became fearful for his life as a follower of Desna. Around a week ago, he was almost caught in an alleyway by a couple of guards, until something very strange happened: he found himself completely enshrouded in shadows, and the guards both passed him by. He quickly realized that he had somehow gained strange cosmic abilities, and decided to secretly use them for good. Using some of his old circus supplies, he threw together a costume, and now, by the cover of darkness, commits acts of rebellion against Chellish rule wherever he can as the Stargazer. (At least, that’s what he wants to be called. He’s fairly new at this, so chances are, no one actually knows who he is yet.)
The 2e rules for the vigilante suggest that the issue is it being publicly known, so unless the GM objects, I think it's probably fine for the party to know, and I expect it would be revealed pretty early.
I'm mainly worried about being to well-known as having powers to be able to have a secret identity later.
I'm having a lot of trouble picking which one I want to take. One issue that may decide it how I'm going to maintain a secret identity starting at level 2 based on whatever we're doing at level 1. Would it be at level 1, I would basically be Peter Parker with the ski mask and the sweatshirt at the wrestling match and I only get a good costume at level 2, or is there no way to have the secret identity beforehand?
Welcome welcome! For the record, I'd be fine with a tengu. Great! I don't really have a preference between the two, so if it's ok, I'll wait for when we get another player to decide.
Hello all, Tusk told me you were looking for another player and suggested I throw my hat into the ring (after checking with the GM). I'd be excited to play in this AP. I have a couple concepts for you to look at. 1)
2)
I think it would be great! I've played a few strange characters, role-playing and speech wise, and they all work fine. The main problem I've run into with weird characters is when I don't fully commit to the weirdness, because then I end up trying to get through the scenario/session as a normal person while still role-playing, which is much harder. But I do agree that if it causes a problem, you should dial it back a bit.
I'll play! |
