General OOC

A place for you all to ask me or other players questions or chit chat about stuff in the campaign out of character.

Looking to get you guys an update tomorrow afternoon (MST).

Awesome. Can't wait to smoke some fools Fury Road style.

@Sylph Don't forget about Cashmere. She's one of Ryborn's agents on Ni'iktu who suspects one of Ry'Kleth's vaults being on the moon. Best bet is that she's in Moment's Rest.

Also I crossed the streams a little bit. Going back through the thread on RPNG Archimedes told him it was treasure he was going after and no mention of Ry'Kleth's vault that might be on the moon. So I edited the last post to reflect this.

I was confused when they mentioned a guy. Does ryborn have 2 agents operating here?

As far as Archimedes knows, no. This elder they speak of is new to you.

Do I start with any xp to spend, or did you already spend that? Will I get to spend xp as I go along, or will you handle that as well?

How often are infamy points replenished? I'm guessing it's whenever you feel appropriate?

Lastly, do you happen to remember where I got 15 CP from, or did you just decide 15 points was fitting for my character? I just went through my character gen stuff to check up on all my abilities and whatnot, and only saw 1d5 CP. Doesn't really matter one way or another, I'm just curious. I will happily acquiesce to whatever you feel is appropriate for the game/character.

Thanks! Excited to get started.

The archetypes don't start with any extra XP. Yes, you will be able to spend XP as we go along. I hand out XP for good roleplaying as well as following and completing goals. Other rewards will pop up from time to time as well.

15 corruption comes from the Magister Immaterials of Q’Sal archetype in the Tomb of Fate (page 35/36 on the PDF). Listed as one of the characteristic bonuses.

Cool, thanks for clearing that up! I appreciate it.

I am catching up on everyone else's posts and I just want to say Bravo, Solo. You are killing it, man. Each one of these stories is rich and the environments are vibrant as hell. Super fuckin' cool, man.

I try my best

I'm happy that you guys have taken to the sandbox style and are moving your characters forward with a purpose.

Hear, hear! I am also very impressed with my first game on the forum thus far. Thanks for the great intro, Solo!

How are we looking on a timetable for updates?

IIRC Solo said look for it sometime after Tuesday.

Ah, OK. Thanks, Bob.

I am super hyped for this.

Threebad, your avatar is amazing. Just wanted to say that.

It makes me all giddy.

Thank you, it made me chuckle an seemed appropriate.

Rolls needed?

Hey Solo. Are my infamy points replenished now that I'm in a new location?

Yes they are.

How is everyone enjoying their characters adventures so far?

I've loved herschel from the get go, but I think that much is clear.

Zar is awesone, nuff said.

Two questions: Can you use an Infamy Point to re-roll? Based on how gaining corruption for nurgle works, killing a particularly tough opponent with disease/poison/toxins gains 1 infamy point. Would taking out the Tech-Assassin with the plague knife qualify?

I've been sleeping on this game. Hopefully by the week's end I can get a post in and spend some XP.

Joy of the single player-ish freeform is that's it's very hard to hold it up. So take your time if you need it.

So if I used the warp shield psychic power right now, would Agent mirror be tipped off or know that I was using it?

Basically was wondering if I could do it discretely. I don't want to fight this fucker but I will if I have to.

You can do it discreetly. Whether Agent Mirror notices depends...

Here's my roll for my tzeentch disorder from the other night BTW. Just in case you're worried about keeping me honest

will arch have a pict recorder?

I see no reason why he shouldn't have one.

Hey Solo, will I get a chance to use the glass shard to return to the cave of mirrors again at some point in the future?

Basically when I backed away from Agent Mirror, I didn't realize I was going to be leaving the caves entirely and returning to the Last Rite - I thought I might get a chance to explore around the caves a little more once I left him, or at least turn a corner and sneak back up on Agent Mirror for a surprise attack.

Don't really mind being on the Last Rite again but if possible I'd like to go back and fight that sucker.

Herschel can head back to the cave or mirrors when ever he wants or can.

Awesome, I will keep that in mind. Thanks man.

I'm not entirely sure what to do in the Anvil thread now. I feel like it is time to move on. What do you need from me in that respect?

Well, you still have the whole bring Alpha Legionnaire back to life on standby. Or, we can start making our way to the Necrons. Your chose.

Oh, shit! I forgot about that dude. Thanks. Let's do that.

Forgive me master. I would really like to spend my XP fully before going to my next encounter, whatever that may be.

Go right ahead!

For future reference you're allowed to spend it when you earn it.

Solo should I first RP working on the eddy or trying to get the other psykers to help me out?

Will need to get the other psykers on the same page before getting to the eddy.

Hey Solo, can you give me a little clarification on X, the exalted psyker?

Here's what you wrote and my follow-up questions. I appreciate your patience, just trying to master-mind how I am going to approach all the psykers of the cabal.

"Whatever they are is an affront to what the gods stand for." Is this Herschel's opinion or impression? Or a general attitude among the crew? Just curious who made this assertion, and why exactly...don't quite understand why one demon/psyker would be unacceptable among this crew.

"Pick a side or get out." What sides? With or against the exalted? Little unclear here.

Thanks in advance. I want to approach the exalted first...I figure it may be easier to recruit other psykers if I say they are with me in this unholy task.

Bit of Herschel's opinion along with the rest of the psykers. Being an Exalted means they ride the fine edge of worshiping all the gods equally so in the end they are unaligned. It's a weird concept that many of the fractured forces of Chaos can't wrap their heads around. By picking a side they need embrace one god not all of them.

Gotcha. Thanks for the additional info!

Solo for clarification, where was the box? Did these fuckers steal it out of my room?

The box was in Avalon's possession after he thought you weren't coming back. You never said anything about taking it (and if you did I missed it... then they totally stole it from your room).

Nope, I didn't say anything about it, forgot about that bit. As long as I don't get any impression that they would steal the cube, I am fine with them inspecting it.
