I suppose those moves would go into our Other Moves section on the sheets? I also think I'm set on Hocus. I'll try to have a sheet up by tomorrow.
-
I'm fairly interested, I think. Personally, would prefer play-by-post. Not really comfortable with voicechat, though chat-chat might be fine, if we could work out the time stuff. I personally can't decide between Hoarder and Hocus. Faceless sounds …

"Name this customer."
-
"Are you saying that he bought the potion under dire circumstances? Hm. Have we asked the mortal whenhe visited the alchemist's shop?"
-
"At least we will not continue chasing that lead, now"
-
Oh I am really glad I checked over here before posting what I was about to. I'll try to redirect the scene a little bit.
-
Gui pushes Brian and says, "I think we have what we needed, anyway." Gui hops away from the bartender and says, "I feel like we're running out of time."
-
"What did you purchase from the alchemist, Mortal?"
-
Oh man that's a pretty awesome character sheet. Anyway, I have no real excuse for taking so long. Time got away from me I guess. Anyway, post comin up.
-
You miiight want to establish what exactly the parameters of being a "bad cop" are for Gui. He might go overboard, otherwise.
-
"To call it a torture aura would be misleading. It would be better to say that it instills the fear of death into any foolish enough to be near me. They would want to be anywhere other than near me, and if we were to tie them to a chair they would n…
-
"Hmph. Have it your way."
-
"I do not think we have to worry about accomplices. Our organisers would have told us if they were a possibility when we arrived." Gui turns to Min and whispers, "What if we tied Brian and Gail to chairs and I used my Aura to torture them into telli…
-
"You've managed to communicate with Besogath, Beast? What does it have to say?"
-
Claws is going to be melee and rending, and Poison Breath is going to be...disarming? Maybe Ranged too, which is what I had before but was never entirely comfortable with. It originally basically had rending before, but I'm not sure I want both my a…
-
Gui turns from Besogath and his completely unintelligible language, and his eyes narrow as he begins to notice what looks like black smoke that has nearly dissipated in the air of the room, what is usually a sign of some form of necromancy. The smok…
-
How does the new way of representing weapons affect natural weapons? Seems to simplify stuff and all in all I like it, but Gui uses his claws as his weapons, primarily, which means he's technically unarmed. And since he doesn't have any traits or an…
-
Yeah, I considered that too. Anyway, I definitely don't speak Mantis Dude. Kraken, do Besogath's Mantis Dude sounds sound like angry or anything? Or just confused? Also, in that case, I definitely need to know what Magic I Detect (which isn't an act…
-
Gui hops to Besogath. "Why have you come to live in this godly city, brother? Did you not think they'd regard you with suspicion? How many times have they accused you of murder already?"
-
Yeah, I was originally going to check out the corpse or talk to the Monster but since the corpse is fake I don't think Gui would have much use for it. Also, he's pretty liable to completely side with the monster even if he DID commit the crime (whic…
-
So I don't really have any abilities that I can use at the moment to determine anything. The best I can do is Detect Magic. So, is there any Magic I can Detect? Aside from like the Pyramid Judges, which I assume are magical. Stuff with the investiga…
-
"The plan does not sound good, but unfortunately, it is the way we must do things."
-
And I think I should be back in business. Trial of Justice sounds good. Oh, since Dispel was removed as an Arcane Combat Trait, I think I'll take Force Armor in its place. Also, the change in Dead Nerves makes it so that Gui has +4 Toughness now, so…
-
Alright, so I start moving tomorrow morning meaning I'm probably gonna be pretty inactive this week. Sorry to do this. If Kraken wants to take over Gui until I can return, I'm fine with that, or if we just don't want to explain why Gui isn't doing a…
-
Gui hops in line with Ba. He makes no grand gestures. He strikes no pose to try to get the crowd's applause. He feels no need to show off his confidence. Instead, he merely smiles a dreadful rictus grin.
-
"Hmph. Gods and their tricks," Gui muttered under his breath. Then, louder, he said, "But even such tricks will not allow you to overcome us. Gu Long Wang is royalty for a reason."
-
Ah, yeah, that's right. Well, even then I lose my combat traits until he rebuilds them. And I still don't really understand why passives were combined with combat traits.
-
I'm pretty fond of the mixed results of die rolls, and the way to increase and decrease rolls is neat. I don't think I like the reduction of traits, in general. I mean, Undeath dropped to like six traits, and they're not clearly demarcated between C…
-
Thanks. Would I know anything about the Pao clan from Well Studied? Something like their place in history, notable Monsters they may have killed, clan structure, something like that?
-
Oh sorry I've been so inactive these past couple days. Had other stuff going on, IRL. I'm probably going to be pretty busy next week, too, but I'll try to check in when I can. If it doesn't look like I'll be able to make it very often, I'll definite…

Gui hopped toward the godling prince and said, "How is it that you know every god we have come to meet?" He hoped that his distaste for this endless parade of Gods before him came through. "Tell me that you have a good relationship with this one."
-
"Yes. Let us please cease this rambling and begin the Games"
-
"Get this Man away from me," Gui said, with an edge to the word as though it were a slur. "I agreed to fight with him, not to answer his inane questions."
-
Where's yours from, Kraken? Also, really awesome pics the rest of you (Loli in particular). Also, I gotta say, if I'm like stepping on any toes with how big an asshole Gui is, I'd happily tone it down. I mean, I'd prefer to kind of do it naturally w…
-
"I care little for proselytizing, but cannot deny the usefulness of a man who can survive being stabbed," Gui said. "That is, if he was in fact stabbed, and that was not some performance."
-
Yeah that sounds pretty cool.
-
The incense smoke irritated the jiangshi, but he still went on as instructed by the Goddess, although perhaps a bit more quickly than was expected. The less time he was forced to spend around the smoke, the better.
-
"I do not seek to change the world, God," Gui said while making direct eye contact with Astra. "My kind tried to change the world long ago, and we failed. Now I must suffer under the rule of you and your kin. I seek merely to survive, to carve out a…
-
"I am an associate of Gu Long," Gui began. "And I very much doubt he would want to exclude me in all your godly games. I do not like to imagine what would happen between the two of you were you to expel me from here."
-
Hm. Might use Aura of Death here unless someone else wants to bail me out. Cause really I see Aura of Death making our relationship with Astra worse, not better, but it definitely feels like something Gui would do in this situation.
-
"I am known as Er Gui," the jiangshi spoke with an over-exaggerated bow that lacked any of the flourishes Gu Long had in his, his arms hanging straight down, his head perhaps getting too close to the ground. "I am a simple jiangshi." He thought non…
-
"Good," Gui said. "Let us proceed." Following that, he hopped out of the building. Unsure of where the Games were being held, however, he did not know where to go after that. That did not stop him from continuing to hop forward, however. He had neve…
-
At the spider-nurse's beckoning, Gui entered the room Min had been taken for healing. "I am older than you, Spider," he said. "Do not call me a child." Then he turned to Min and said, "Are you satisfactorily well? May we continue to the Games now?"
-
"I've only been to Pearlsea once before, in another life," Gui said. "I doubt the city has the same layout now."
-
Kraken just informed me I can't take three Exploration traits in a row, so I'm going with Dispel, an Arcane Combat trait, and Well Studied, an Arcane Interaction trait, instead. And for Well Studied, I'm going with Monsters, Gods, and Mythic History…
-
For my passive, I'm taking Death Grip because it seems like I'm gonna be doing a lot of grappling. For my other two traits, I'm going to take Pierce the Veil and maybe Cantrips? Boy I hope we do a lot of Exploring cause that's apparently how I'm bu…
-
heh well first really dig the idea of magical evolving items and second, I mean, I do follow that sub so I might've seen it anyway No one tell Kraken that I never check my front page so I might not have actually seen it.
-
The mob surged forward as the barrier fell, and Gui knew it would not be long for them to surround him and his companions. As their grubby hands began to snag his robes, he swatted them aside and hopped forward, into the portal.
-
I'll do a brawn roll to um push past them or something to that effect [20,14,13]+3
-
Oh thought I said something. Anyway, Yarrun, if you want to go for the final shot, by all means. Let's end this b
