Character Creation Chatter

I am still on board.

I don't own the rulebook and would need help with the crunch side of things but I am still interested.

I'm still interested. Sorry I didn't respond but I really liked the concept you came up with for my character. I'm sure we can rejig to get the same idea in the new system.

I can I suppose, I really have no idea about this system though, never played it.

It's very easy. 2d6 + mods vs TN 9+ for the most part. Mods are appropriate Attribute and Career and TN can deviate based on Difficulty of Task. I'll post the Core Mechanic in a thread ASAP.

So how would our Morlock work?

So how would our Morlock work?

Morlocks are the slang term for crazed Cursed cannibals. You wanted to be a Moonwalker if memory served me correctly. They are Trogs, the slang for non-cannibalistic "neutral-to-friendly" Touched & Cursed, who live beneath ground and cultivate mushrooms and blind fish. This being said, you could easily get away with being a Touched since you elected to leave your tribe at a relatively early age. Here is your basic rundown of such a creation:

Slim Shady

Boons: Cavern-Born, Relentless (Vagabond), Keen Sense of Hearing

Flaws: Distinctive Appearance (Albino), Mutation

Mutations: Restricted Sense of Sight (can only see in near-to-total Darkness)

For those of you interested in playing. Make a character thread in the Party Roster section. Subject should be your character's name. Format is pretty straightforward and easy. Use the example below as a guideline. Any questions you might have, by all means COMMUNICATE with me please!

This game appears dead. Is that the case Wulf? No posts in a long long time.
