@Jennkryst Fading Suns?
I know it exists! Eclipse Phase, too, if you also want Altered Carbon Body-Swap shenanigans.
(Edit: PBs changing now have an IC justification!)

@STD Babies are grown in bellies, and that is whee food goes once you use your mouth to eat it. Ergo, mouth babies are just as valid as butt babies, especially since this was that game with telepregger-nobody-even-needed-to-touch creeper power.
Guh.
Even assuming you’re being facetious, Firan was even stranger than I thought.
… Breeding was one of the Staff’s (multiple staffers?) personal kinks, wasn’t it?
Also: dare I ask about the telepregger ability? That’s insane enough to be some sort of oWoD thing.

Not a peeve per se, but one of the things I do regret not really doing is engaging with the generational aspects of L&L/fantasy theme yet (in a non-kinky way, SORRY). Even though I closed out my big char on Arx with a kid to contribute to whatever imagined future for her situation, it was kinda just something I tossed in at the end cause it was on my bucket list.
Playing on Concordia did show me that it’s fun as hell to play the royal parent of young adult children* in L&L games.
*if you can manage to get relatively sane players for those characters

Generational stuff is one of the reasons I was sad when Arx shifted from 3:1 to 2:1. Just reduced the chances of exploring it. (Plus there were always people who insisted on loudly declaring they never wanted staff to turn on auto-aging because they wanted to play an unaging 20-year-old forever.)

It’s me, I want to play the forever-20-year-old, with a body that isn’t randomly falling apart from too much marching band.

Cool, then don’t play on games in which legacy and generational inheritance are core features of the lore.
-
Finding sane players for your descendants has got to be gaming on hard mode. I shudder to think about it.
-
The only good thing about auto-aging not being a thing on Arx was staffers singing happy birthday when I remembered to age my character up.
-
@Juniper excuse me, I said relatively sane
-
I guess 80% sane is fine

@Jennkryst There’s also just the Altered Carbon RPG, Traveller (well, certain Traveller settings), and Hellas: Worlds of Sun & Stone.

Jubilee probably misses being a vampire just a little for precisely that.
-
Jubilee doesn’t do shit except idle in her room and TS Noriko and complain about things involving the X-Men happening and then justifying why she can’t go to these events.
Heroes Assemble is such a stupid fucking game where half the cool characters should be set open because their players are useless.

When your PC has a unique ability that helps out with the current major, year-long plot, this is what’s known as an RP hook. People who have their characters ask yours to use their ability are trying to include you in things.
But, by all means, continue to complain on channel about how nobody wants to play with you (and maybe you’re just a bad writer who should pick another hobby) and are just using your PC for their ability, all the while having said PC sit by themselves, speak in a language most other characters don’t know, and be passive aggressive whenever anyone with IC rank tries to be friendly.

For some reason this gave me the mental image of a fuming Klingon sitting in the shadowy corner of a medieval tavern. I don’t know why Klingon specifically, but Klingon.

[Public] Ko’Dath says, “WHY DOES NO ONE WANT TO HAVE AN HONOR DUEL WITH ME?! MY BA’LETH HUNGERS FOR BATTLE! IS IT BECAUSE I DIDN’T PAY FOR A ROUND OF BLOODWINE? MAYBE I SHOULD JUST TAKE MY K’TINGA AND GO BACK TO QO’NOS SINCE IT IS CLEAR ALL YOU DISHONORABLE CURS DO NOT WANT ME HERE!”

No call, no shows to stuff. RL comes first, but your GM or RP partner is also a real person.

@Rusalka This reminds me of a LARP I attended where one character was mute, only spoke through texting people or by drawing / writing messages on his iPad, and was constantly trying to make a connection with a faction that were all luddites to the last person and refused to even let the character come near. At the end of the LARP a lot of people went to dinner at the same place and I overheard them talking about how they felt like they had wasted their money because they didn’t get the RP they were looking for.

There is a certain degree of lateness for online that I will ignore or not worry about too much whether I’m the one waiting or the one running late, but like…
In the last few months, I’ve sat around waiting for an hour while trying to figure out if the event scheduler hadn’t adjusted for the time change or if people just weren’t showing up to scenes they asked me to run for them. Or waiting for them to come to their own events, where a half dozen people were like, “Are they coming? Is this moved?” and then the player didn’t even acknowledge they’d blown people off.
