Expressing interest now, just to get my foot in the door. ... too soon?

Very interested. How much leeway is there for creating our own backstory in a generic dark fantasy mode? I'm thinking a survivor of a sacked and war-torn city, a scoundrel who fears solitude and has a guilty conscience.

Name: Albert Leahman Age: 36 Ethnicity: Ashkenazi Jew Nationality: US, New York Occupation: Bookseller, shopkeeper, forger, fence Gender: Male Orientation: Open to negotiations Bio: Leahman describes himself as "just another Jewish kid from the shtetl," and that's certainly where...

I'd be interested in playing a journalist. Possibly British. Would the heavy censorship continue? I can see arguments that the powers-that-be would not want the people back home to know that the planet was being invaded.

It's a role-playing game by White Wolf in their World of Darkness setting, alongside games like Vampire: The Requiem and Werewolf: The Forsaken. (If you, like me, are a bit older, you're probably more familiar with the original versions of the settings: Hunter the Reckoning, Vampire the...

Is this going to be a game on discord or a game of this forum with a discord OOC?

Curious.

Looks fascinating, evocative and original. But I'm not sure I see how it will translate into a story. Do you have a plot in mind?

I'll withdraw so you can admit one more. I like cyberpunk when it's a "not-to-distant-future" kind of genre. William Gibson and Cyberpunk 2030 kind of stuff. Once the bio-android killing machines show up, I'm out.

Interested. And I raise your synthwave bid with a little Scandroid.

Interested.

... I'm not sure I'm up to playing a character from the enforcement arm of a church like this. Normal D&D polytheism mashed with medieval Catholicism is hard enough to play. This adds another level to it. I think I'd better drop out.

So, Lore. The Gods have been banished by humans ... but humans still have churches and worship Gods? Wouldn't people be a little bit wary of invoking creatures that are probably really pissed at them right now?

Well, that kills my first character idea: Matthias Supulchre Applebottom, Most Feared Inquisitor for Yarallen, halfling Goddess of Second Breakfast. ... Sorry, that joke just popped out.

I'd be interested in the Inquisition position. Probably a paladin of some sort. I'm guessing I'll need to write up the God they serve. I've never thought that the usual D&D Gods are the sorts to have in Inquisition.

Are you thinking of using the standard D&D polytheism here?

So is this a free-form Delta Green?

Interesting. I'd probably like to play a human investigator. Maybe someone who's taken a job there in a low ranking position that allows lots of access. Housekeeping or security, maybe. Would that be possible? Is there an "official" history of the hotel? Like, something on their website...

Not sure if ironic or not. Ithaca, New York? Home of Cornell University? The most "college town" of all college towns? A lot of young vampires running around would explain the nightlife. Wait a minute, didn't Elizabeth Kostova say in The Historian that most archivists are vampires under the...

Man, Ithaca suddenly makes a lot more sense now.
