@rowan This is how young Gangrel get their wings. That was a good'n.

A couple other high notes for me, personally were:

1. @Coin 's mage and mine having a not so low key Life Magic Prank Off against each other in a crowded scene. He won. By a couple pounds...

2. The Fall of Atlas Corp. On TR, our Cheiron Group cell of Hunters exiting the stage. One guy knife fighting a shark, my own fumbling a grenade... and when mine died, the deadman's switch goes off. Opening the cages of drug fueled chimps with surgically implanted explosives. I heard some wild scenes spawned off that. @EmmahSue gave us the best sendoff I've ever seen.

@tooters

Constantly ghosting the high holy fuck out of everyone the second my rabid meerkat attention span shifted to a new game, hobby or unexplainable burnout.

Too many good friends casually cast aside over the years to count. Sorry, y'all. I'm better now... but not by much.

Since HBO went and half-assedly brought it out, no MU can do it any more harm...

DMZ Mush.

Everybody is broke, you're shot at for fun and nobody wins.

Unless you use Jason Mamoa as a PB, then you are granted a neighborhood to rule. Along with the other Warlord Mamoas.

Not going to sit here and act like I wouldn't do unspeakable things for an Elder Scrolls game.

Weird magic and werewolves. I'm talking weird. Sure, extra genitals are neat and spark fingers are a good ole time but if you can bend the laws of reality? Push the envelope until the wizard police show up with mops and zip ties.

Comic book stuff gets wild though. I mean, if you can clone yourself at the drop of a hat.. why not answer the age old question?

The answer is yes. Don't be a coward.

Updated. Now with new and improved flavor crystals.

I used to see it as a lack in creativity. Nowadays, I'm seeing it more as a time saver or a return to a classic.

Just me throwing out a random number here... 10? Like, total? I dunno. Could convert some to Mystery Cults. Those are always neat.

@Admiral said in City of Shadows:

@Taika Well, I'm just spitballing here...

Have the Vampire Prince be a jackass who jams people into groups for territory reasons willy-nilly. There can be trading of group members back and forth and bartering and blahblahblah.

Or have some kind of mystical hoodoo linking people so they have to maintain X distance from each other or they start getting negative effects.

Or create 'cells' pre-cgen where people app in together and as folks fade out/quit playing open up those spots in existing groups so nobody ever apps in alone.

Or any number of things. There's all sorts of ways to force folks together.

Or

I mean, isn't that what factions/spheres/lodges/covenants/motley's are?

Pre-CG shoe horning people together would probably have the same outcome as some prison cells. Blood, poop and tears everywhere.

Of course, some would get along. That's just the odds. But most of us would start sharpening our toothbrushes.

Can we not? I'm tired as fuuuuuuck of this conversation. Let's move on from this 'Mage is OP' thing early, shall we?

Territories. That right there is what brought me to The Descent 1 and 2. @Ganymede hit it dead on. Give folks something to fight for, not against.

People dig building things and cross sphere alliances to improve turf/gain bonuses from said turf building?

Pretty neat.

@hedgehog And people wonder why I still hold onto Cubs hate long after forgetting about baseball.

I now feel boring as fuck for playing heterosexual men all the time.

Happens to the best of them. Thanks for exploring the posibility!

I have absolutely no knowledge of FS3(yet) and I've only seen the show. Other than system requirements on my brain, pretty easy to get rolling?

Or is lack of book knowledge going to be a bit of a speed bump?

Was just talking about the posibility of an Altered Carbon MU or an Into the Bandlands MU so this sucker punched me in a neat way.

Any updates on this'n? The setting really interested me.

Either way, I feel old as fuck now.

Excuse me while I go crack open an Ensure and peruse some vampire stuff.

Just a curiousity. Doesn't seem like much is out there now but I know a few games are in development.

Anybody close to opening?

oWoD? 20th Edition? WoD? 2nd Edition?

What's being cooked up, folks?

A nice lady on the Internet. We met on a Java game, she kept trying to convince me to give the MU format a chance. It was overwhelming at first, all the commands and grid navigation. It stuck though. Ended up married and scored some pretty neat friends to boot.

Ten years and I still agonize over character names... some things don't change.
