Sorry folks, my head's still not focused, tomorrow is a day where I will receive some clarity on the situation I am dealing with so I am hoping to be a bit more energetic thereafter and thus able to focus on posting. I appreciate everyone's patience here.
Still struggling over here, hoping to have bandwidth tonight.
Sounds reasonable, I have had 7 days from hell so I'm good with whatever you decide.
Ill be withdrawing my submission, too much going on right now
Sunday night this week is still on fire.
And it got worse, might be no updates till Saturday.... :-(
Sorry folks lot of RL and work drama the last few days, no updates until Thursday evening on any games.
I'll update tomorrow evening, want to give PCs just a few more days to chime in to what's about to take place BEFORE it takes place... after all, these will be your last words while you're alive!
I'll update when I have a moment, buried the last few days.
Oh wow. I get back and am 25 posts behind? HOLY SNOT. This could take a bit. Consider it really just one LONG post from me as the Conspirators talk amongst themselves.
Sorry for the delay. Work is killing ne and was unexpectedly busy over the weekend, will try and have my character ready by Thursday.
Interested, ok with a cinematic escape. I'd resubmit my last submission as a Gestalt Cleric/Wizard.
Have fun folks!
Sorry for the delay next update is massive and I need extra time for it. Update completed! Those of you who played in Venice I believe can see history, rhyming or is it repeating? :-)
Indeed, several of the Cainites appear, uncomfortable if not outright stunned by Claudius' suggestion! The other half merely shrug in response.
VADUZ - The Year of Our Lord 1444 - April 5
As Claudius Giovanni is about to respond to Lorenzo's statement, a loud shakes the Manse! All the hosts freeze mid-revel shock on ther visages, bloodstained or otherwise. Suddenly a loud alarm bell rings in the distance. Guards shout, footsteps rush towards the room and the doors burst open with Sir Lothar flanked by two of Earl Giovanni's men, "My Lord. My Lord! We are under attack! They bear the coat of arms of the Black Cross! We will be overwhelmed!"
Sorry for the delay next update is massive and I need extra time for it.
Have fun everyone!
Sorry for the delay folks, I ended up going out last night, updates later today/this evening.
Hi Lapyd, sorry to hear that! When you're back PM me and ill put you right back into the game no problem. Get well soon and take care.
Table Top tonight, will try and hit every game tomorrow!
I ran an evil table top campaign from 2017 to 2021 and the Halfling PC was a Rogue poisoner, he slew a whole dinner party, pretty great scene!
Dug out my 1E Players Handbook, by the weekend I'll have my PC up and running, thanks DM!
He probably won't get many visitors from the Clan while he's there, none of us will....well we will if we get picked otherwise we'll rot in Brandescar!
The Captain ignores Sergei's statement and addresses Claudius once more, "Well, Lord Giovanni, what say you! Free them and I shall give you what you want, your torturer shan't get what he wants from me, nor shall your psychic. You need not be the monster your Father is". The rest of the doomed at their Last Supper turn their eyes upon Lord Giovanni as one of their own attempts to sacrifice himself for them, all goes quite for a moment as the Mortal demands Claudius respond.
Ahmet Kilic or Captain Menini, or whoever he is, speaks again though his tongue is slowed with loss of blood, "If I were to confess to you, would you let the rest of these poor souls go, unharmed? And Paul the guard? He has not injured you, none of these people have. You could make them forget whole cloth what they have seen". He adds, "I'd wager. You have what you need from them and now you have me trapped in your web, what have you to gain from their deaths?"
VADUZ - The Year of Our Lord 1444 - April 5
Many of the guests who are True Friends of Claudius raise a goblet at Wil's toast and roar with approval, unsurprisingly those who are their victims, do not seem quite so giddy or eager to join in.
Ok 3 of 4 updated! Ill get to Vampire later this morning.
Sorry for the delay, I'll be posting up at some point this morning :-)
sorry for the delay, posting now!
As I mentioned in my ST Shadow status post, I'll update tomorrow or Wednesday. The scene is about to shift a bit! Hopefully our missing Players are feeling a bit better this week.
Secondary Skill: = Roll Twice: Farmer/Gardner, OR
Assuming I get a choice I'll go with SOCIAL CLASS: = Upper Middle Class. Based on that roll I'd probably choose Hunter for Secondary Skill.
Pretty good rolls for me, the dice roller usually hates me, going with array 2. It'll take me a few days to get fully up and running but will be creating a Human Cleric worshiping Pelor from Niole Dra, Keoland. Rolls: = 14
Rolls v 2: = 11
Just Curious v 3 = 13
Sorry for the delays folks, had a bunch of House problems over the weekend and I used up my free time applying to play in a few PbP games. Should be back on track to post tomorrow night/Wednesday night!
Yeesh, I didnt realize this would get this many submissions lol. Got my work cut out for me this week.I personally have yet to see an AP get less than an average of a dozen applications - save very specific recruitment limitations turning off potential interest. Especially old APs that rarely get recruitment calls any longer.
Zero issues with pace at all, absolutely want to keep the gane going!
I'm not, some people prefer a fast paced gane. I have a friend on these boards who doesn't PbP any longer because they can't stand the slow pace. For me life's too busy to keep up with fast paced PBP so it's never bothered me.
I will be working on a Bard this weekend for submission.
Of the doomed, Marguerite finally finds her voice, "What, what will become of us? Have you not had your fill of our life force and likewise filled us with terror that none should have to endure?"
Where did you get that info, i've looked through the character creation sections and I found nothing that said Inquisitor couldn't have an archetype?That was my first choice on archetype as well. But it isn’t allowed for this campaign. Yep, might be, I don't track what's from what books so I didn't even realize that Archtype was foreboden. If so, easy enough to switch to a straight Necromancer! I'll do that tonight. Too bad, that Exploiter Wizard is a pretty sweet concept.
Seth is a really good poster and he hasn't been posting in the games I run where he is a PC either so he must still be feeling like crap unfortunately :-(
As the rest of you sit and watch, your fellow men and women are treated as kegs at a beerhall. Franz, Violetta, Cantor, Theophana, Robin, and Rodrigo, who called himself El Cid, all raise goblets in a toast they turn their taps and fill the goblets with Blood! Each drinks greedily then invite the others, including your Patrons to sample the wares. None touch Wil, though Violetta does gaze at him longingly. Michele, Michael, Sergei, and Savio all partake. Lorenzo, Ranerius, and Geoffroi all abstain from the "Feast". Claudius is still seated next to Wll and watches the proccedings with pleasure. The True Friends excitedly move from guest to guest, turning taps and sampling the different "vintages" as they are referred to by Claudius at one point. They animatedly compare tastes, and even the most reserved among them at first become gleeful and aroused by the experience. They raise goblets and toast, "To the eternal damnation and destruction of Japheth Cappadocius! To the blessed ignorance of Hardestadt and his motley mob of back scratchers!" All of the guests who are "to be served" begin to droop in their seats and turn pale. Their life force ebbs away.
Wil, the collar is quite snug, its fit almost but not quite, cuts off your airways, certainly eating is now impossible and the movement of your neck is impeded. The servant takes the dagger and cuts an incision into your neck where the hole in the collar sits. The pain is intense! Just as quickly is the cut made that the tap is screwed in! A little blood leaks out.
The process is followed on everyone wearing a collar. The Man with No Name struggles but the tentacles from beneath his seat hld him fast, he curses in Italian at the servant but the cut and tap are set in place as he has nowhere to go. Camilla cries a single tear as the cut is made and the tap inserted. Whether she is stoic or simply in shock you cannot tell. Marguerite attempts to stand and run, too late obviously, and the same steely voice of command is exhibited by Lady Theophana, Jan and Ahmet are immobilized still and cannot resist physically. Jan prays for absolution while Ahmet spits at Claudius glaring at him with hatred. The terrified Professor does his best to fight off the servant, but his actions are clumsy and he too has a piercing in his neck and a tap affixed to his collar. Once all of the necks are pierced and the taps set into place, the servant walks into the darkness once more. He face is expressionless despite the macabre nature of the acts she just performed on several men and women.
Constancia:
Between the fangs and the glowing red eyes and the mind control powers, you believe that most of these "true friends" must be Vampires. While Lorenzo hasn't used that word directly his talk of Eternal existence lends itself to this conclusion.
Zuana:
As you look around the room, its appears that the rest of the guests are beginning to realize just what type of situation they find themselves in!
Based on what you know, you believe that all of the Vampire "Clans" have at least one representtaive here. The Politics of it all of course, you do not know. Marcel:
Demonic Pacts, they must all have been granted power via Demonic Pacts for their magic to work so freely and easily!
Enzo: Between the fangs and the glowing red eyes and the mind control powers, you believe that most of these "true friends" must be Vampires. Which means that your "Great Uncle" is likely a Vampire too, that explains drinking his Blood directly. It's unnerving and yet exciting at the same time to think that such tales told to scare children are real!
Prospero and Sybilla I believehave both been sick in RL and Augustus is neck deep in RL. I'll keep moving us forward assuming they are either too horrified to speak or managing to watch this all with a detached sense of safety based on what their Patrons have promised them, i.e. that they're "safe"!
I'll have that submission up tonight, toddler poop problems ruined my night last night...
In reading the thread a bit closer it looks like VMC is allowed, if so, I would make a Wizard (Exploiter Archtype) with VMC Sorcerer Rakshasa Bloodline. High INT & CHA and everything else just stinks :-)
