💋 plotting

[byebyebirdies]

since a bunch of us are trying to get our sign-ups in under the wire and we've had a JUICY GROTTO PARTY i'm reviving the previous discussion to see if anybody wants to pair up with characters as opposed to randos for the kissing plot thing!

i've still got corrigan and paige open but this thread is for ANYBODYYYY

Re: 💋 plotting

[sovain]

Bounces on in here to say I have Sofia if anyone is interested, too.

throwing hexes and breaking hearts

[byebyebirdies]

... is merrill going to have to step in because hero and corrigan try to duel in the cafeteria

Re: throwing hexes and breaking hearts

[heresie]

the "rumor" is that corrigan and hero are going to fight to the DEATH after dinner

in-game rpg system?

[sunsoutgunsout]

although we try not to break the space-time continuum TOO MUCH in this game, what do you guy think about using 5e as a starting point IC for the mean girls and crit & run D&D events? (that's the edition we used for jj's OOC D&D campaign.)

my brain won't let me write a cohesive paragraph about this so instead i'll make some points in a list!

1. a lot of players are familiar with it
2. i think it's pretty user-friendly?
3. prior knowledge wouldn't be necessary no matter what. when relevant things need to be known IC i'll link them for reference, and 90% of the mechanics will probably be hand-waved, anyways.
4. it would be fine if characters referred to earlier D&D systems for stuff like races/classes/etc.

& if this isn't allowed because it's anachronism, it's no problem :)

Re: in-game rpg system?

[bubblewrapped]

FWIW the 5e beta started in 2012 - 2013ish. And the later versions of the beta were pretty similar to the final product which came out March 2014 so you can probs handwave timing that way.

Also I am 100% cool with this.

hello from the sleepy side?

A Phenomenon

[tues]

Every time I try to go to bed I have a Revelation about something I want to write into an app.
This has happened to me enough times that I am now just giving up and writing instead of sleeping.
It'll work out fine.

[puphart]

i'm extending it for at least... a week. i have so much work and Emotional Fun this week (another memorial service!!! yay!!!) that i can't guarantee i'll be around for anything except stuff that's already planned out like mean girls do d&d. i'll pop in and look at new posts now and then but can't commit to actually commenting unless my characters are called out.

i'll be a person again eventually and/or soon 💜

also given the state of my self atm, do i want to wind down with a wicked IPA from one of my fave breweries or a new red wine with a bear on it, please tell me how to live my life, thank you

Re: remember that hiatus?

[riledup]

I! P! A!

While telling me fun facts about bears

now's the time

Re: i have a cold and im dying in florida

[cygninae]

AND YOU ALWAYS YELL AT ME FOR NOT TAKING BREAKS

Kinda slowatus?

[taxation_is_theft]

My sister is going out of town for three weeks to train so I inherited three basically toddlers to raise as my own in her stead. I dunno how that's gonna work out but I'm probably gonna be a lot slower than usual. I might miss posts so if I miss something you want me to notice, just shoot me an email.

It'd be cool if you could prelude that email with a historical fact Bc idk fam but I think me and Alex are smashing the historical learning emails at the moment.

Re: Kinda slowatus?

[soundscaped]

I learned a lot about Jeffrey Dahmer today so get ready for that
