Title: Fog of the Minds Eye: OOC
Post by: Aydoo on July 12, 2011, 12:30:06 AM

Welcome to "Fog of the Mind's Eye "Out of Character thread.

Please keep all OOC buisness and questions dedicated to this thread, as to not clutterup the In Character threads with uneeded or irrelevant information. Remember for anything un-related to this chronicle there are many other forums and subforums that may be used.


Sheet Assignment

Everyone should have received your sheets by now, and gotten to pick out your Virtues. As listed these are the players to which sheets they received to help keep track of whom is who.

Mechanics
House Rules
While this Chronicle is based on the general rules of VtM:Revised, there are a few additions and/or changes I feel will help or I personally rather.

Child Flaw: If you were presented with this flaw, note that it does NOT affect your maximum attribute potential through you are still confined by generational limits. Characters with this flaw are no younger than 12 and no older than 14.  Otherwise it functions at normal.

Auspex: For intents and purposes for detecting Obfusecate, Chimerstry, or any other hidden powers that Auspex would usually detect, Auspex is considered reflexively on. If said power that Auspex is trying to detect is greater in potency than Auspex then Auspex has no effect. If Auspex is greater, it automatically peirces the power. If they are the same there is a contested roll as per corebook.

Fortitude and Potence: Both of these disciplines count as automatic disciplines and thus always on. They also both function the same in the effort to balance the game. Fortitude is automatic soak of one die for BASHING and LETHAL level damage, but must be rolled normally for AGGRIVATED level damage. Potence is an automatic extra Strength feat success when manipulating the world around you, but must be rolled in addition like Strength during combat situations.

Celerity: While giving extra turns and actions as per normal, Celerity eventually takes its toll on the body and may require a Stamina roll during repeated uses.

Obtenebration: Difficulty adjustments according to area lighting.


Advancement

While no XP will be given out, there will be rewards in the form of points as the characters shrug off the eventual effects of the torpor. This presents the characters the ability to advance in any way they see fit. At first these points will be used to grant a few 1 dot Abilities. After the first dot is placed in an Ability if it is not used or trained during roleplay session it cannot further be advanced, nor can new dots be purchased in other skills after the first set of assignment.

For example:

Quote

Subject One is assigned 5 dots to place among all abilities. Subject One chooses Athletics, Security, Dodge, Leadership, and Streetwise. Each of these abilities get 1 point and are advanced. Later in the story Subject One is allowed two more dots of assignment. During the Roleplay session Subject One only used Athletics a few times and none of the other relative Abilities that he took. Subject One can then spend the dot on Athletics and thus must hold on to the other untill he is able to spend it on something else. At the next upgrade Subject One is granted 3 dots + 1 unspent. He found that he was using broken bottles alot and is allowed to take 1 Dot in Melee, as well as upgrade or take new Abilities that may have been central to his character in the previous scene.

Merits and Flaws
Everyone is expected to play out their flaws as presented. How this is done is mostly up to you. Each flaw was balanced with a Merit of equivilant point or power. The exception are the Dark Fate and Amnesia Flaws. Everyone was presented with these flaws for a reason. The Amnesia flaw is part of the central theme and limiting factor of the game. It is something to be explored through the story and roleplay of the characters. The Chronicles narrative will be setup as to start you off with a basic frame of what you do and do not know, as well as move the plot forward. The Dark Fate flaw is to show that no matter how hard you try, eventually you are doomed. Everyone is disposable, and at any time something could turn around and snuff you from existance. The World of Darkness is a harsh place, and you never know what is waiting around the bend. All the player characters have no idea what Dark Fate is instore for them and should not pretend to have any knowledge of it. This flaw is for OOC purposes only.

Attributes
Your attributes define whom you are physically, mentally, and socially. They define the basics of your character's capabilities and the sum of who they are as a creature in the world. While your Nature and Demeanor are your characters heart and outward personality, your Attributes affect you on a deeper level. It should be taken into account when roleplaying how your character's Attributes are set. A score of TWO in an attribute is the normal average human level. A score of THREE is average for the supernatural. A score of ONE is below average and should have some affect on your character. Someone with only ONE Intelligence should not be able to put long strings of complicated prose together at a whim, nor should a character of ONE Perception have normal senses (perhaps you need glasses.) Do take this in consideration during your roleplay.

Disciplines

Eventually players will be allowed additional Discipline points. These will have little no baring on the Roleplaying section of the game. Trying to use a Discipline alot just for the sake of use and advancement is pointless, and will eventually be punished. When points are distributed the players will be allowed to either advance their current discipline or aquire a new one based on the discipline pool that the group as a whole has currently. This means that if no one has Dominate, then no one ever will. If a player opts out of advancement and goes for a secondary or tertiary discipline, a die will be rolled and one will be picked randomly from the list. Once a player has aquired three disciplines they will be unable to take a new one until at least two of those are at the 3rd level or more. I'm going to cap this growth at 5 per player if some how this runs long enough to see this eventuality.

Generation

At the start of the Chronicle all characters are effectively 13th Generation. Generation is being hidden for dramatic effect, and there will be periodic reveals that may or may not increase effective Generation. As per core you are to abide by whatever effective Generation you find your character at. So a 13th Generation would have a max Bloodpool of 10, max spenditure of 1 blood point per turn, and would be susceptible to the power of lower Generational kindred. Actions that require more blood spent to activate will likewise take multiple turns to perform unless the kindred is able to spend that much in a turn.




Any questions or comments can either be directed to me personally if you wish, or here if I am currently unavailable. I also take suggestions and player ideas. :>

I've noticed posts are already moving slowly: This concerns me.

Nice work everyone else who has posted, they have been very enjoyable to read so far.

I felt that, as I have not posted yet and several days have gone by, I should say why.
I am holding my post until your characters have had a bit of dialog. I'd like my character to be a little bit of a late arrival- but I am holding on posts from you guys- waiting for the initial panic and uncertainty to be over. Consider it that my intent is to post when the time is right.

Just wanted to let you all know so you weren't waiting on me. Everyone else, get postin! I know we were all very excited to see how this thing turns out, and I would hate to see Aydoo bring the wrath of god down on folks (like me, lol, though I hope I've explained myself adequately) Who aren't posting on the regular :P

Let's get the ball rolling! The last thing I want is to still be in this room in November. You may laugh now, but it DOES happen!

I knew Skyra wouldn't have much time to post, as he's usually extremely busy. I had considered this, and was expecting it from him. Everyone else, not so much. I'd like to pretty much echo what Malavis said above. I'm going to give it a day or two, then move forward reguardless.

Malavis isn't posting till everyone starts with actual dialog. He wants a dramatic entrance. I've read the post already its fine, it just need you know, more people making a plot. Those who haven't posted an intro by Friday are going to be... "dealt" with. :>

Everyone do continue as if you weren't waiting. I'll deal with the stragglers as needed tommorow once the time limit is over. I figured a week was fair enough time to wrap up intros. I'd expect though if you have some reason you can't post for some time to at least let us know. We do really understand that IRL comes first, but letting everyone hang for no reason is unacceptable.

I knew there was a reason [Subject 11]'s Nature was Deviant with Demeanor Serial Rapist.


Speaking of I named the characters so it'd be easy for everyone to identify themselves until they got names around. So for the time being if you need to you can refer to yourself as your number in the manner such as [Subject 1] or [1] make sure you use brackets though to show the implied naming as thats not their names. It should not also be used in dialog.

I'll be out the rest of the day. Wife's bday. :> Still can be reached on my Windows7 Phone if its important. (By sending PM, since I get my emails.)



Isador has been asking so I'll get this out.

You can re-roll actions and extend them as such:


Spend 1 pt of Temp Willpower.

Reroll dice.

Difficulty +1

By spending the WP, you get +1 success dice on your roll. This helps prevents botches and fails but can be canceled by a roll of a 1 if no other successes.

Cteniz is currently holding the metal tube. YOu are welcome to try to take it from him ;)

Quote from: Malavis on July 17, 2011, 09:10:58 PM

Cteniz turns back, his hands fidgeting nervously on the strap of the bag slung over his shoulder.

"Let me know... If... Bending words to your will produces knowledge. I had success but... So little makes sense in this environment. Amsterdam confuses me."

Cteniz picks up the metal tube, more looking for something to distract him from mother and father than any other reason, and walks over to one of the sarcophagi against the wall. He takes a seat in the shadows and waits.

Title: Re: Fog of the Minds Eye: OOC
Post by: Radical21 on July 19, 2011, 03:37:23 AM

I'm kind of confused, Is Void's character at the center of the room next to Cteniz, the girl and the stuff or next to [12] kneeling by the half torn man in front of the rubble?

Post by: Bigpaw on July 19, 2011, 05:22:15 AM

Oops, I may have been mindless of the actual status of the flashlight. What's the situation Aydoo ? Shall I retcon the post in trying to get it from Cteniz, shall I scratch my former post, or everything stands as it is ?

Title: Re: Fog of the Minds Eye: OOC
Post by: Malavis on July 19, 2011, 05:28:10 AM

Void's character is at the rubble where the man was torn in half (South side of the room)- and Isador and Cteniz are walking south cautiously to see if he is ok.

Malavis, Void, Isador, roll courage, vs Rad's intimidate. Isador gets +2 dice.

2 successes mean he startles you slightly, 3 you shrug it off as if it were nothing but a slight bother. Less than two successes, would make you jump but not frenzy. A botch is frenzy of fear.

Title: Re: Fog of the Minds Eye: OOC
Post by: Radical21 on July 20, 2011, 07:37:54 PM

For the Record, Aydoo made this character and its Nature ,Demeanor and Stats not I... I am just RPing it in the resulting annoying way given the circumstances.

Title: Re: Fog of the Minds Eye: OOC
Post by: Radical21 on July 20, 2011, 09:48:34 PM

Um Storyteller, should we roll initiatives or ?

My character already went in front after rolling a successful Manipulation + Leadership(2 successes) before Void's as far as I can see... Annoying I know and everyone probably wants to kill him on some level but why should [3] be allowed to rewind the flow of events and override with a different leadership roll?

Title: Re: Fog of the Minds Eye: OOC
Post by: Voidshaper on July 20, 2011, 10:50:31 PM

I didn't mean to step on Rad's toes, just wanted to try a contesting leadsership roll, because it's in the boy's nature to try and be better than others. Having failed to beat rad's score though, I let the boy stand defeated.

Title: Re: Fog of the Minds Eye: OOC
Post by: Voidshaper on July 20, 2011, 10:53:26 PM

Seriously! Aydoo's board is cursed with 1's!! A botched manip+subterfuge roll haha...I'm going to play this up.

Title: Re: Fog of the Minds Eye: OOC
Post by: Aydoo on July 20, 2011, 11:10:26 PM

Thats not a botch. Its a fail. A botch is when you get 0 success an roll a 1. A roll is a fail as long as you get one success.

Example:

10 1 1 1 1 1 is a fail roll just like 2 2 2 2 2 2.

2 3 4 1 is a botch roll.


I reviewed everything, it'll stand as is. My question is since no one has been specific enough and just gone a long with it, what STAIRWELL are we talking about?

Title: Re: Fog of the Minds Eye: OOC
Post by: Isador on July 20, 2011, 11:17:52 PM

TBH i had no clue there even WAS a stairwell. From the discription of the area given in the first post, i figured that all stairs mentioned in the text meant the steps leading up to the altar or the collapsed passageway

Title: Re: Fog of the Minds Eye: OOC
Post by: Voidshaper on July 20, 2011, 11:18:43 PM

Right. And every 1 cancels out a success. So I rolled one succes (8) and two (1)'s. One of the (1)s cancels out my success (8) and I am left with: 0 successes and one (1). At that point it's a botch, according to the WOD rules Malavis taught me :razz:

Title: Re: Fog of the Minds Eye: OOC
Post by: Aydoo on July 20, 2011, 11:19:59 PM

Its not. If you get AT LEAST ONE SUCCESS, its a fail. No matter how many 1s you have.

It says this in the core book. pg 192-193

Title: Re: Fog of the Minds Eye: OOC
Post by: Voidshaper on July 20, 2011, 11:23:42 PM

Alright, I guess Malavis and I have just been playing wrong then, hah. Wow...so it's actually pretty hard to botch then.

I always looked at increasing dicepool as a gamble - higher probability to succeed, but also higher to gets 1s, and if you had too many vs. your successes, more dice would mean more botch chance.

Hmm...okay, well I can rest easier knowing it's extremely unlikely to botch!

Also, I think it's the south stairs.

Title: Re: Fog of the Minds Eye: OOC
Post by: Aydoo on July 20, 2011, 11:24:33 PM

The post fails. Its indicitive of a failure.

Just a note as well, if you botch a roll, do not follow up until given instructions on the effects of the roll. Thats you know, kind of an ST thing.

This is correct. There is no other stairwell leading up. There are the few steps to the altar, and the collapsed passage.

Title: Re: Fog of the Minds Eye: OOC
Post by: Isador on July 20, 2011, 11:29:40 PM

If those are the only stairs in the area then there wouldn't really be any stairwells, right? A stairwell is after all a vertical shaft in which a stair is built, leading up or down.

Also, sorry I can't keep up with the posting. I feel like I'm trying to tame a tornado ! I'll do my best to post daily, but once or twice a day is probably the best I can do. Far from your current speed. You are all frenzied maniacal celerity-boosted posters, or what ?? ;)

Rad, FYI the corpses are no longer on the altar. At least not in the flesh... [3] drained them dry when he frenzied a little while ago, and the corpses turned to ash. I suspect the piles are still there, but unfortunately no symbols...

Let the awakenings begin. Just a note, previous strength successes, will add up, so you need cumulative 3, if you botch it'll just subtract from your cumulative success. There is also no spending WP to open the sarcophogi, so it'll have to be pure strength plus potence. Blood can be spent normally to increase Stats as well, if you do so, do note it.

Title: Re: Fog of the Minds Eye: OOC
Post by: Aydoo on August 11, 2011, 09:38:02 PM

Upon further thought and discussion, I decided 3 was a bit much so all you need is a cumulative TWO successes to exit your sarcophogi.

Well you set yourself up. Visual. You see a derpy horse everywhere watching you when you are alone. Its a pitty, because it looks like it has poo brain.

Either that or inanimate objects start talking to you (Pinkamina style) when no one is paying attention to you. Saying mean and well crass things.


Take your pick.

Know what? Since he got a shit load of successes, you get both. Pink poo brain horse that stares at you from a distance always, and inanimate objects that talk to you, quite meanly while no one is paying attention to you. Both happen though when you are not being socialized with.

As of tommorow, 9/23/2011, each real day that passes the heat in the room increases drastically as primal forces seek to claim the turbulence for their own, after ~four days the heat will be staggering enough to evaporate vitae and cause a point of aggravated damage per day, increasing on subsequent days. Meaning those without fortitude could survive a max of four days after damage begins before being obliteted. As this is a time sensitive event if you have super important real life issues to handle, do announce or pm, as I'll make an exception then.

Anyone not heeding this is forfeit.

Post by: Isador on September 25, 2011, 06:10:41 PM

So for clarity's sake:

Friktion's character is attempting to leave the room, Bigpaw's is also attempting to leave the room and my character is following his.

Right? I'm getting the idea i'm wrong

Title: Re: Fog of the Minds Eye: OOC
Post by: Aydoo on September 25, 2011, 07:06:55 PM

Yes, Bigpaw, Isador, and Friction has left the room and begun the trek up the stairs. I'm waiting on reactions for others at the moment, and further descriptions will continue on the first fourth day in a new thread for those who have ventured out.
