So who is the Blood Patriarch, and can he be my boyfriend

You don’t want that. Nobody wants that. Trust.

I actually don’t recall if this got asked (and I have nfc what to look for if the answer exists), but how does it work that <things> got chomped and then the culprit got what happened to them. I mean that in a “does that particular notion have to be refilled by a successor” or is it more “VACANCY: THIS MANY FOLKS” who may or may not have the same “portfolio” so to speak.

So that one I won’t get into, as fun as it would be to talk about it. I’m gonna keep to things that would greet people immediately on the way in or be very clear just from reading things that would be mostly common knowledge to characters, and the metaphysics around things like that and the circumstances could be considerably deeper, and in some cases run into some character secrets.

@kalakh ahhhh okay, that’s fun.

I enjoyed how hassle-free it was to create a temporary room in Arx 1 and describe it as being pretty much anywhere, but there is actually something special about having a dedicated grid space. I really do miss describing and furnishing my characters’ rooms. 🥹

I REPEAT MYSELF. WRONG 80 year old.

@Wizz My understanding is that Arx will be the most detailed grid but there will be separate spaces for the other kingdoms.

Wizz

I thought these were “starting areas” your characters could be from to give them traits and backgrounds in CG, rather than actual separate grid spaces, and the setting was still the city of Arx?

Solstice

Oof. What a sucker punch of a 24 hours.

@Dreampipe it sounds like something that belongs on What We Do in the Shadows.

a character who, due to experiences in the game, has earned the ability to be a little blase or otherwise confident around weird shit.

this is, to be fair, not really the peeve. I don’t mind a confident, competent character who can reassure others because they’re an experienced demon hunter or whatever, but there is a line (not always super clear but definitely there) between that and just no-selling everything. like has been mentioned, it’s very much about their reaction to other characters’ reactions too.

blasé and dismissive has just never been fun to play off of in my experience. probably doesn’t help that the kind of player who picks that combo is also usually kind of a dick OOC on top of it.
