Vodacce are very touchy about their honor, and even more clever about their words. Women who have been caught in lies that caused bloodshed are forced to wear veils for their trickery.

RE: Help with STing 7th Sea
The ancient Eisen made pacts with dragons and to this day some still wear armor and bear arms made from living dragon bone. Never let a blade taste your blood, for it will remember and hunger for it, and never travel with any piece save to return it to its home land.

RE: Help with STing 7th Sea
When sailing the seas around Albion, an insect flying in the open water is a curse. They are courtiers of a Sidhe stronghold, and must be very politely refused when they offer hospitality. Taking food or rest binds a sailors soul to the isle, and refusing calls up the wrath of wave and storm.

How many generations back does each person owe a reporting of violence, exploitation, oppression?

It's as if different individuals have differing opinions, experiences, and means of expression.

Yup.

RE: Sexual themes in roleplay
Let me clarify:
But does that emotional investment mean that you are in a romantic relationship with your PCs romantic interest, or their player? Cuz that's the thing that I see as destructive.
I wholeheartedly support friendships and trust between players. Even a romantically and or sexually involved set of players should still keep their IC relationship and its tribulations separate from their RL one. Right?

RE: Ground Zero - Help Needed!
What about the NWOD system stands out that you would use it? Other than "lots of people know it already"?

I musta missed that. Was that the week where we thought it might rain somewhere?

So angry. Damn that rap music.
Also ego investment is similar to, but not a one to one relationship to investing your hormones and desires.
I have more hope that the latter can be handled to allow story play in relationship play.
On the former, I suspect that the very reasons people enjoy playing are entangled forever in investment, and so it will come and go, be a stronger and weaker correlation. I would rather have a little of that than lifeless or unenjoyable play.

RE: Sexual themes in roleplay
If it's a story element, and not your actual affections and sexual desire in text form, you should be able to make fun and drama from anything, including various challenging or uncommon relationships types. BDSM, polyamory, swingers, bi, trans, ... jealous, possessive, low self esteem, damaged, reckless, careless, hurtful, unfaithful, abusive, uncaring, all of it can be story.
Unless it's your affections and emotions and relationships on the line. You figure it out.

Czech-German. Bohemian atop that (which is just more Slav with German).

It'd be so much better if we all just could wave lots of arms around and change our skin to various color/polarization patterns. --> Nerd Slap-Fight!
You two are in accord.

RE: Sexual themes in roleplay
Yup. I still think stating a bill of rights helps armor some players. What you want doesn't change the world, but knowing others think something should be guarded against, eg pressure to RP a scene you don't want to play through, can help a few.

RE: Sexual themes in roleplay
I'm actually interested in counts, and not in a snarky fashion. At least not completely snarky. I remember one rape that went public on TR, and two more that were "unexpected", but OOC consented, that stayed quiet.
