Devastator wrote:^Makes sense.
Although i would like that these stats should be made by GM(s), not by players just to keep balance.

Actually, I created all the stats for the previous players in the last roleplay and it was based upon the original profiles with a modicum of balancing thrown in. It was approved of by the GM at the time - Kaiser - so I reckon 'tis all good.

That is true...

I meant the stats for new players. (bs7 anyone?)

edit: oh hai, Kaiser

Is there a scale for the map?

Also, I could adjust the stats some.

Personally (and I guess you could say naturally), I think they're fine - the ones I did at least. Haven't seen the news ones, if anyone has done them.


Edit: As for scale, I think it was about a 4 hour drive in a busted piece o' sh*t jeep from Elysium(?) to Troy. Can't remember exactly if it was Elysium or not, but I'm pretty sure it is. Also, I think they were traveling about 50 or 60 MPH, so that should help you with scale.

I boosted snarky's, just so he'd be on par. Check and suggest edits, if you like.

Roleplay isn't about balancing, it's about fun and different characters and realistic play even in unrealistic situations. Now, believe me when I say this, these profile edits are fair. They are based on what the character sheet says, and nothing else. I did indeed invent the stat system we're using after all. In case anyone calls me bias towards my own character, well the stats came into play several weeks after I invented the character, so Mikey wasn't created with having an advantage over this system in mind.


Player Name: Snarky
Character Name: Ken
Char Age: 26
Char appearance: An unshaven man in his mid 20's, ironically wears a firefighter helmet and hazard suit to protect him from his own pyromania.
Equipment: Small knife, Rucksack (contains a large amount of "useless" junk), Flamethrower (salvaged), copious quantities of kerosene stolen from gas stations, lighter, cigarettes.
Backstory: A coward and a thief, Ken managed to survive the worst of the end of the world by hiding in a basement. When it all seemed to calm down, everyone was dead. Or so he thought, there were monsters lurking everywhere. Heading to the gas station, he fashioned a home made flamethrower to deal with the monsters. Unfortunately the end of the world had obscured his judgement, convinced that another group of survivors holed up in an abandoned supermarket was a group of Reapers in disguise, he torched the entire place before looting it for supplies. His own personal motto is "If in doubt, kill it with fire."
Other info: The end of the world has taken it's toll on him, Ken is a paranoid pyromaniac who is also a kleptomaniac. He'll try to take anything that's not bolted to the ground, and burning anything that he can't carry with him.

Also, what's up with all the numbers in brackets for Chowder's character?

I have bionic implants (I can post links to them in real life if I need to) and if they are turned off, I have one arm and one eye, so my stats suffer.

Ah yes, I remember that now.

I suppose. I mostly did that because it seemed odd for his character. Seeing as everyone is surviving, everyone is bound to be stronger than they used to be.

Take Klimino's character for instance, he's only 18 - his body isn't fully developed. feth knows why he had BS7 though. Anyway, compare him to the sixteen-year-old Stix who SURVIVED ON HIS OWN IN THE WILD.

Should I fix that?

That is what i meant by balance, although coherency may have been better choice of word.

Heh, I may be a Grammar Nazi but I'm not a troll.

If you have a reason for not being able to spell correctly such as dislexia or English is not your first language, then I've got no problem with bad grammar and spelling. That you try your best is all that anyone can ask of anyone else.

Meow.

It will start as soon as the event is completed. (Nudge, nudge, wink, wink)

Who is making that event, anyway?

i think kasrkai. otherwise its darko,who just said otherwise,or shas,who made this to get a replacement.

so kasrkai.

This one is indeed in Kasrkai's court. I have meanwhile actually been finishing my Space Hulk event! Up to just over 8400 words at the minute. Need to write some more parts, and when I do, I'm sure I'll get to over 10k!

Well, I haven't got anything yet. I'm just getting it all together. My first time GMing since Dungeons and Dragons, and that was years ago.

Darko probably refers to his Space Hulk RP.
His event has 8,000+ words alone.

Beat ya by 10 seconds bro.

Yearg, ninja'd.


Total restart, or we picking up at Troy?

And what IS the source of your power!? Is it the cat!? I have cats. I will become a cat, and surpass you in power!

Space hulk, RP that is closer to "short" story than RP.

Yipee, I'm telling another GM what to do.. again! Lookin' at you Kaiser.

We're picking up at Troy.. quite possibly why I've said that we're waiting for you to conclude Kaiser's unfinished event. Also, Kasrkai, I'll PM you with Kaiser's original plans for the roleplay that he sent to me awhileeeeeee ago.

It's a WIP Novel.
