[17:09] <Fulcan> All friend--
[17:09] <Fulcan> LKEAS?!
[17:09] <Mordecai> Hm, I need to actually remember adding channels to my /joinall every once in a while.
[17:09] <Fulcan> HI
[17:09] <Lkeas> what does NH stand for?
[17:09] <TSJustice> hay
[17:09] *** Sylvir has joined #NH-Mechanics
[17:09] <Fulcan> New Horizons.
[17:09] <Necro> Wait, there's new stuff for the abode now?
[17:09] <Lkeas> he did say "past" dark abode players ;)
[17:09] <Fulcan> Lkeas.
[17:09] <Fulcan> It's like I haven't talked to you in 3 hours.
[17:09] <TSJustice> Does that mean the Abode is gone?
[17:09] *** Namegduf has joined #NH-Mechanics
[17:09] <Lkeas> heh

[17:10] *** Sylvir has left #NH-Mechanics
[17:10] <TSJustice> brb, walking dog
[17:10] <Fulcan> I figure that the current FAR Org. members ain't gonna do much good.
[17:10] <Travis> Hm.... Same format?
[17:11] <Fulcan> So I might toss in a new recruit, or detach him completely.
[17:11] *** Durroth has joined #NH-Mechanics
[17:11] <Liliana> its not exactly gonna be same format no
[17:11] <Falerin> The "second epic" and the abode has ended

[17:14] <Fulcan> Well then, can we get this discussion under way? I've got a few questions.
[17:14] *** KM2 has joined #NH-Mechanics
[17:14] *** Puppy has joined #NH-Mechanics
[17:14] <Fulcan> That wasn't one of them.
[17:14] <Liliana> XD
[17:14] <Hiro> people!

[17:14] <Fulcan> Emooooo.
[17:14] <Liliana> peeple to
[17:14] <Mordecai> Hm, Falerin?
[17:14] <Persuasion> I love PEELE!
[17:14] <Falerin> First I am going to give a mechanical explanation of the new system
[17:14] <Falerin> then we can discuss questions
[17:14] <Liliana> I love Fulcan Fulcan doesnt love me XD
[17:14] <Mordecai> I'm curious, was the speech recognising software you use made by you?
[17:14] <Fulcan> :(
[17:15] <Falerin> No
[17:15] * Fulcan loves his bittie. Liliana ain't his bittie.
[17:15] <Falerin> It is made by microsoft
[17:15] <Mordecai> Ah, I think I know which one.
[17:15] <Falerin> Now then
[17:15] <Liliana> is that what you call your "sword"
[17:15] <Fulcan> Yep.
[17:15] <Mordecai> Forgive the little interruption.
[17:15] <Liliana> k
[17:15] <Hiro> :o
[17:15] <Liliana> now good stuffz
[17:15] *** Falerin sets mode +m
[17:15] *** Falerin sets mode +o Falerin
[17:15] <@Falerin> Okay then
[17:16] <@Falerin> for those of you familiar the mechanical thing is based loosely on White Wolf's old WoD
[17:16] <Lkeas> what was the old abode using?
[17:16] *** #NH-Mechanics Cannot send to channel (+m)
[17:17] <@Falerin> Unlike WoD however scores are in quite different categories. 10s are always exceptional success not just when specialized.
[17:17] <@Falerin> And dice pools are normally based on a single attribute divided by 10
[17:18] *** MasterSamak has joined #NH-Mechanics
[17:18] *** Daniel has joined #NH-Mechanics
[17:18] <@Falerin> there are 12 scores of relevance
[17:19] <@Falerin> (physical magical psyhchic and alteration) power (physical magical psyhchic and alteration) resistance
[17:19] <@Falerin> are the first 8
[17:20] <@Falerin> the other 4 are Percents of health
[17:20] <@Falerin> Physical health, Physical health baseline
[17:20] <@Falerin> mental health and mental health baseline
[17:20] <@Falerin> a normal individuals physical baseline is always 100 percent
[17:21] <@Falerin> but mental health is lower as 100percent mental health indicates nirvana
[17:21] <@Falerin> Dice rolls will no longer be done using #WoD
[17:21] <@Falerin> A new method has been coded
[17:21] <@Falerin> it is #hz for horizons
[17:22] <@Falerin> and it will work like WoD but it automatically will reroll tens to produce higher then ten rolls on exceptional success
[17:22] <@Falerin> #nz 5 5
[17:22] <@Falerin> #hz 5 5
[17:22] <RPGServ> New Horizon Results for Falerin:
[17:22] <RPGServ> 8 7 9 8 9

[17:22] <RPGServ> 1 11 9 2 2
[17:22] <RPGServ> Total dice: 5, Diff was 5: Successes <2>, Botches <1>, Net <1>
[17:22] <@Falerin> Note the 11
[17:23] <@Falerin> Ability scores are no longer determined at random and what looks good
[17:23] <@Falerin> instead we have a new system for that too.
[17:23] <@Falerin> Initial scores are detremined by the #hscores command
[17:24] <@Falerin> All old players must use this method because it reflects the randomization of the world merge event
[17:25] <@Falerin> New Characters may either use the randomizer. Or spend 75 points and assign them to their scores with no score allowed to exceed 25 except pys power which may go as high as 35
[17:25] <@Falerin> futher alteration resistance starts at -5
[17:25] <@Falerin> and you must spend to zero before it can go up
[17:25] <@Falerin> As alteration represents divine/dhe ehmn power
[17:26] <@Falerin> and normal beings should NOT be very resistant to these
[17:27] <@Falerin> Oh I mispoke about maxes Alteration resistance maxes at 5 for point distribution and so does Alteration power
[17:27] <@Falerin> Rolling dice allows upto 5 higher in any given score then point distribution
[17:28] <@Falerin> and it allows a greater number of points per score (based on 3d10) with offsets for physical power and the two alteration scores
[17:28] <@Falerin> Health scores are not auto calculated and are by determination
[17:28] <@Falerin> Players may spend the new Ochre experience points to tweak their character
[17:29] <@Falerin> New players start with zero of them
[17:29] <@Falerin> extant ones with ten
[17:29] <@Falerin> Ochre experience may be bought in units of two
[17:29] <@Falerin> by reducing another score by four
[17:29] <@Falerin> You may split point spending
[17:29] <@Falerin> but never buy
[17:30] <@Falerin> #hscores
[17:30] <RPGServ> [New Horizon Scores for Falerin]
[17:30] <RPGServ> <Physical Power: 29 Psychic Power: 18 Magic Power: 16 Alteration Power: 0 Physical Resistance: 15 Psychic Restistance: 6 Magic Restistance: 19 Alteration Resistance: -3>
[17:30] <@Falerin> Note this character has a negative alteration resistance it indicates suceptibility
[17:30] <@Falerin> the lowest starting alteration resistance is -5
[17:31] <@Falerin> Specific exp colors will be rewarded later after play that allow score advancement
[17:31] <@Falerin> but only with training
[17:31] <@Falerin> That is in and of itself the basic system
[17:31] *** Falerin sets mode -m
[17:32] <~Puddles> Question: how to you train yourself to withstand alteration?
[17:32] <@Falerin> er extant ones with 8
[17:32] <@Falerin> Training to resist or use alteration requires the aid of a deity or a dhe ehmn
[17:32] <Aaron> do we still have mauve, and if so can we use it while rolling scores?
[17:32] <@Falerin> and will likely be quite costly
[17:32] <~Puddles> Ah.
[17:33] <Fulcan> Question: What's the setting for NewHorizons? This is for the purpose of deciding on a residency for a new character, in the questionnaire. More appropriately, I guess, how would offworlders with no supernatural ability get themselves there?
[17:33] <TSJustice> Query: What do you mean by 'old' characters?
[17:33] <@Falerin> Or another person with alteration at least 5 points higher then you
[17:33] <Lkeas> is this a completely new RP, or will old storylines/characters be worked in?
[17:33] <Hiro> its a giant merging
[17:33] <Hiro> :P
[17:33] <Mordecai> ...Perhaps we should take turns to ask questions?
[17:33] <@Falerin> The storyline follows the abode directly
[17:33] <Hiro> of different chars worlds :P
[17:33] <Liliana> old characters are still around
[17:33] <Aaron> Fal can you answer my question?
[17:33] <@Falerin> This is the world as it recovers from massive omniversal damage
[17:33] <Fulcan> 'Ey, Aaron, paitence.
[17:34] <@Falerin> Mauve points exist and may be used to reroll stats to their expiry
[17:34] <@Falerin> But if you roll lower and are out of mauve
[17:34] <@Falerin> you are stuck with the lower scores
[17:34] <@Falerin> as per usual
[17:34] <Mordecai> For my first question. This would mean that a previous character whose player wishes to use the 75 point method would actually count with 85 points, due to the +10, no?
[17:34] *** Rixis has joined #NH-Mechanics
[17:34] *** Hiro is now known as Hiro|PrayingtoAzukin
[17:34] <Liliana> previous characters do not get to use the 75 points
[17:34] *** Hiro|PrayingtoAzukin is now known as Hiro
[17:34] <Macha> Previous players can't use that method
[17:34] <Lkeas> how previous is previous?
[17:34] <Mordecai> Aaah.
[17:34] <TSJustice> Thats what i asked?!
[17:35] <Mordecai> Forgot the randomnization.
[17:35] <Liliana> if they have been in abode you cant haz
[17:35] <Aaron> I'd think it is any char made before new horizons started
[17:35] *** MasterSamak is now known as MSamAFK
[17:35] <TSJustice> Then I count! Yeah!
[17:35] <Clyde> Umm question
[17:35] <@Falerin> Previous means active within 6 months when it comes to being forced to use the dice
[17:35] <Lkeas> so if a character was made a while back and doesn't have any mauve or ochre points they're just out of luck XD
[17:35] <Mordecai> If I got it right, then, I would have to roll for Cerbero and be able to use the 10 points for further addition, correct?
[17:35] <@Falerin> and within 1 month to get the bonus ochre
[17:35] <Fulcan> Sorry Lkeas. No foxwoman 4 u.
[17:35] * Lkeas shrugs
[17:35] <Clyde> Will there be scheduled sessions or random Fal-wants-doom moments?
[17:35] <TSJustice> Bonus ochre for me then
[17:35] <Liliana> everyone thats a returning player is getting 10 ochre
[17:36] <Lkeas> within 1 month Lil, he said?
[17:36] <Aaron> How and when will we be able to train?
[17:36] <Hiro> whats ochre again? besides reminding me of vegetables
[17:36] <Liliana> also the 10 ochre is per player not character
[17:36] *** Roch has joined #NH-Mechanics
[17:36] <Liliana> oh ok
[17:36] <Hiro> whats ochre again? besides reminding me of vegetables >
[17:36] <@Falerin> Affirmative per player not character
[17:36] <Lkeas> it's a color, like mauve :P
[17:36] <Liliana> (Link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ochre)http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ochre
[17:36] <Hiro> what does it do
[17:36] <Hiro> :P
[17:36] <Lkeas> gives you extra stat points
[17:36] <@Falerin> Ochre allows you to raise a score by one per die
[17:36] <TSJustice> Could you answer Aarons question, Fal?
[17:36] <Hiro> hmmmmm
[17:36] <Fulcan> So, Fal, to clarify: A character I make that lives on a world would simply get to the setting of NewHorizons by having his world merge with the others, resulting in his new location?
[17:36] <@Falerin> Ochre will be used to raise scores later as well
[17:37] <@Falerin> but after intiial ochre alone is insufficient
[17:37] <Lkeas> i think he did TSJ, you can use the mauve
[17:37] <Liliana> ochres can be spent in game for certain effects too, i forgot what those are
[17:37] <@Falerin> you cannot spend ochre unless you have an available trainer
[17:37] <TSJustice> Ah
[17:37] <Liliana> oh ok
[17:37] <Hiro> sooo its like rare candies D:
[17:37] <Hiro> yum
[17:37] <Aaron> So I'll ask again how and when can we train?
[17:37] <@Falerin> Fulcan that is correct
[17:37] <@Falerin> it is also required
[17:38] <Fulcan> Thanks.
[17:38] <@Falerin> New characters must be Neo-Caelestians
[17:38] <@Falerin> i.e. from a merged realitys
[17:38] <@Falerin> or Lorian
[17:38] <Hiro> Destiny Islands
[17:38] <Hiro> XD
[17:38] <Aaron> So what do we do with things like word history?
[17:38] *** Genoclysm has joined #NH-Mechanics
[17:38] <Clyde> XD
[17:38] <@Falerin> no other exceptions will be granted for nonmerged realities at this point
[17:38] <Aaron> *world history
[17:38] <@Falerin> World History has become mudled by the merge
[17:38] <@Falerin> the pasts of these worlds has been rewritten
[17:39] <Fulcan> So how can I make an accurate questionnaire about a past that I don't know?
[17:39] <@Falerin> but the players isolated from the change remember the old past
[17:39] <Mordecai> Were the worlds mentioned in the session the only merged ones?
[17:39] * Hiro is totally sending an email with his worlds info D:
[17:39] <Fulcan> That's how, then?
[17:39] <@Falerin> in essence they know nothing of the new world their world has become
[17:39] <@Falerin> or even of their new past
[17:39] <Lkeas> so we all start from scratch, sort of?
[17:39] <@Falerin> They must discover everything a new
[17:39] <@Falerin> including who they have changed into
[17:39] <Liliana> no 1/2 of all existing worlds anywhere were merged
[17:39] <Mordecai> Ah.
[17:39] <Hiro> so Ive become sora
[17:39] <Hiro> D:<
[17:39] <Macha> What about old charcters who's worlds DIDN't Merge. There are a few floating around.
[17:39] <TSJustice> Dang
[17:39] <Aaron> Since it still hasn't been answered how will training work?
[17:40] <Liliana> if you have a world you would like to be one of the merged ones you can submit info for it
[17:40] <TSJustice> My character is being torn to peices
[17:40] <Mordecai> Ah.
[17:40] <@Falerin> Furthermore
[17:40] <@Falerin> and this is big... we will be allowing player run scenarios
[17:40] <Macha> YAY!
[17:40] <TSJustice> Huh?
[17:40] <Mordecai> ...Oh wow.
[17:40] <@Falerin> because caelestia is now am amalgamated world
[17:40] <Aaron> so who gets to run them?
[17:40] <@Falerin> Players will be allowed to act as assistant DM's for stories set in their world
[17:41] <@Falerin> They must submit their scenarios for approval to staff
[17:41] <Liliana> characters whose world did NOT merge are grandfathered in, as it is assumed they have been on the new caelestia for quite awhile already
[17:41] <@Falerin> and upon approval will run their story with the aid of staff
[17:41] <Lkeas> their world that they don't know anything about due to the merge....?
[17:41] <Mordecai> While I'm tempted to submit the merge of one of my worlds, I believe I'll wait for the first ones to be run
Session Close (#NH-Mechanics): Mon Jun 15 17:41:33 2009 -0700


Session Start (Caelestia:#NH-Mechanics): Mon Jun 15 17:41:47 2009 -0700
[17:41] *** Lkeas has joined #NH-Mechanics
[17:41] <TSJustice> Ok
[17:41] <Fulcan> Hi Lkeas! :D
[17:41] <@Falerin> and <Falerin> They do know things about the nature of their reaility before the merge
[17:42] <Mordecai> <@Falerin> They do know things about the nature of their reaility before the merge <--- Lkeas
[17:42] * Lkeas grumbles about stupid tabbed chat thingies
[17:42] <Lucas_Michaels> <@Falerin> New characters must be Neo-Caelestians
[17:42] <Lucas_Michaels> <@Falerin> i.e. from a merged realitys
[17:42] <Lucas_Michaels> <@Falerin> or Lorian
[17:42] <Lucas_Michaels> oops
[17:42] <TSJustice> Ok
[17:42] <Aaron> Actually, will chars whos worlds haven't merged still need new stats?
[17:42] <Liliana> we remember our old timeline, which is an issue because we are expected to act as our "new" selves would, the issue is many of us do not know how
[17:42] <Aaron> Just to make sure
[17:42] <@Falerin> And those things are relevant because the islands will at leasst try to encapsulate their worlds nature
[17:42] <Liliana> yes everyone gets new stats
[17:42] <TSJustice> Yes, thats semigood
[17:42] <Lucas_Michaels> Was trying to past that and use a ---> to say "that leaves out Lucas" XD
[17:42] <Hiro> <@Falerin> and this is big... we will be allowing player run scenarios > hahaha
[17:42] <@Falerin> But things may be subtly altered or drastically in some cases
[17:42] <Lkeas> this sounds very complicated.
[17:42] <Lucas_Michaels> But I have another character idea anyway
[17:43] <Persuasion> Dakota!
[17:43] <Clyde> XD
[17:43] <Fulcan> Falerin: All new characters, Neo-Caelestians, that is, that are player characters remember their respective old worlds?
[17:43] <TSJustice> My char idea still has hope of making it!
[17:43] <@Falerin> It assuredly is complicated
[17:43] <@Falerin> Caelestia is no longer hosting people
[17:43] <@Falerin> it is hosting planes of existance
[17:43] <TSJustice> The same way an orange might be mistaken by an apple, that is
[17:43] <@Falerin> I.e. any setting whatsoever can be run if you are willing to brave the chaos storms between islands to go to other areas
[17:44] <Lucas_Michaels> Lucas's megaverse couldnt really merge with all of this and still work right XD, But that gives me an oppourtunity to make and use someone new, and a new world
[17:44] <TSJustice> My char might still turn out more or less as the originial design then. Yay!
[17:44] <Aaron> I don't think it would merge in the exact same form Lucas
[17:44] <Macha> Fal: Can we have a list of what worlds so far have merged to from Neo-Caelestia?
[17:44] <@Falerin> Naturally this merger is considered within abode continuity
[17:44] <TSJustice> Ill have to work on the immortality part though
[17:45] <Fulcan> Immortality is not good... trust me on that one.
[17:45] <@Falerin> Nothing is saying you cannot continue your own original setting sthat you run yourself outside the New Horizons
[17:45] <Lucas_Michaels> Yeah, that could cause problems for my rp's, so, a new world and character would be the solution for this rp :D
[17:45] <Lucas_Michaels> Oh okl
[17:45] <Aaron> also when will we be doing rolls for new stats and where?
[17:45] <Lucas_Michaels> Cool :D
[17:45] <Liliana> what are we doing with characters that have different forms? are we saying that it is like a magic effect that ups or lowers stats temporarily?
[17:45] <@Falerin> It is like "Analogs" but not of people
[17:45] <Lucas_Michaels> Alternate realities and stuff then
[17:45] <TSJustice> Well, he can still die, but he'll keep on reforming
[17:45] <@Falerin> but of Planes of Existance
[17:45] <@Falerin> Aye
[17:45] <Liliana> ok
[17:45] <@Falerin> Alternate realties
[17:45] <Lucas_Michaels> An alternate reality of my character and his setting could be fun
[17:45] <TSJustice> Like the Void Golem in the Tentei quest
[17:45] <Daniel> Interesting. ^_^
[17:46] <Fulcan> Did you see my latest question, Fal?
[17:46] <Lkeas> ok, so let me see if i get this... old characters remember their old pasts, but they don't know what their world is now or who they're supposed to be?
[17:46] <Aaron> So when and where will we roll for stats?
[17:46] <Lucas_Michaels> And I could make him far more appropirate for this setting, well I could do that anyway, but this will make it easier and stuff like that
[17:46] <@Falerin> I Do not believe I did Fulcan
[17:46] <Aaron> Lorians are still from Lore
[17:46] <Fulcan> Falerin: All new characters, Neo-Caelestians, that is, that are player characters remember their respective old worlds?
[17:46] <@Falerin> Yes
[17:46] <@Falerin> and their own old histories
[17:46] <TSJustice> Yes!
[17:47] <@Falerin> but both effectively are uncreated
[17:47] <@Falerin> they are memories of a shadow
[17:47] *** Coldkick has joined #NH-Mechanics
[17:47] <Fulcan> And one more, regarding the abilities: We're asked to submit an abilities list, but have no such abilities at the time of their creation as a character?
[17:47] <Mordecai> On that subject, Fal.
[17:47] <TSJustice> Thats good, very good. My character will be made!...as soon as my writers block for his personal history goes away
[17:47] <Lucas_Michaels> And some of the people and beings destroyed and defeated in my orginal rp could still be alive in this alternate setting
[17:47] <@Falerin> Abilties lists are suspended for the moment
[17:48] <Genoclysm> I believe the lack of abilities is a transitionary period.
[17:48] <@Falerin> Becuase characters have no idea what abilities they have
[17:48] <@Falerin> they must discover that in game
[17:48] <Aaron> I really would like to know when and where we can roll for new stats
[17:48] <@Falerin> Since their entire histories have been rewritten by the merge
[17:48] <@Falerin> They know what they once had
[17:48] <Travis> Aaron: Probably here. No be patient.
[17:48] <@Falerin> and their knowledge is intact
[17:48] <Mordecai> Characters whose origin lies on Lore remember their story, resulting in that their "new" story is the same but interrupted at the point where Falerin saved them from death? If so, have they been on Neo Caelestia constantly ever since or revisited Lore at times?
[17:48] <@Falerin> but capablities are not
[17:48] <Fulcan> So, does that mean that the Dhe Ehmns of the characters decide what their abilities are for their characters, or that you and the ops decide our characters abilites?
[17:48] <@Falerin> Yes Cerbero
[17:48] <@Falerin> And either is posible
[17:48] <Mordecai> ah, good.
[17:49] <TSJustice> Good, I can still have elemental steam then?
[17:49] <Fulcan> <@Falerin> And either is posible <-- In regard to mine?
[17:49] <Mordecai> So consistency with Lore's history as portrayed in AQ is completely possible;
[17:49] <Macha> Wait: Why would new charcters remember the old history if they were inside reality when it got redone. Those charcters should logicly remember the new history.... Ugh this is makeinmg my brain hurt
[17:49] <@Falerin> The later at the moment
[17:49] <@Falerin> since all characters are now transitionary
[17:49] <@Falerin> down the line as time moves forward from the merge
[17:49] <@Falerin> new characters will be given more leeway
[17:49] <Aaron> if Lorian chars have the same past before caelestia, do they retain abilities from before that as well?
[17:49] <@Falerin> further... you can always train in other abilties After creation
[17:49] <@Falerin> with xp points as awarded from play
[17:49] <TSJustice> So, if my charatcer had an ability that let him manipulate an element, he has to find that skill again?
[17:50] <Mordecai> Aaron: I would say the knowledge is certainly retained. However, the actual abilities in regards to power would depend.
[17:50] <@Falerin> and that will be done regularly now
[17:50] <@Falerin> Cerbero is correct
[17:50] <@Falerin> Yes Logan
[17:50] <Aaron> K, so Aaron would still have light and barrier powers then I assume
[17:51] <Mordecai> To simplify it, I believe we should dissociate physio-magical abilites from cognitive ones/memory and only retain the latter in consideration.
[17:51] <TSJustice> And my new character can still have elemental magical steam! Yay
[17:51] <Mordecai> I'm curious, however. Falerin, how would this affect psionics?
[17:51] <Lkeas> ugh. i'm just gonna make a new character, if i partake at all :-/
[17:51] <@Falerin> Extensively
[17:51] <@Falerin> Knowing the principle of a psychic power
[17:51] <Mordecai> I am considering using a Psion who was in a merged world I might submit at the time of the Omniversal damage.
[17:51] <Macha> This is makeing my brain hurt
[17:51] <TSJustice> Please let not have complex rules fro psychics
[17:51] <@Falerin> does not mean psionic capacity
[17:52] <Mordecai> Ah, the attunement to Psi.
[17:52] <KM2> Will all of this info be avilable somewhere?
[17:52] <Mordecai> BIG detail to forget, heh.
[17:52] <Fulcan> Falerin, are you familiar with the Stand Ability from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure?
[17:52] <KM2> Aside from here some minutes ago?
[17:52] <TSJustice> D&D cunfused me enough on the subject of psionics
[17:52] <Aaron> So when and how can training occur?
[17:52] <Mordecai> Would aspects such as eidetic memory or derangements be retained, in the latter case excluding those caused by physical damage or ailments?
[17:52] <TSJustice> We make our own training, I think?
[17:52] <@Falerin> Ability use rolls are never complicated logan
[17:52] <@Falerin> They are always.
[17:52] <Lucas_Michaels> What would Ki/chi blasts fall under?
[17:53] <TSJustice> Magical energy?
[17:53] <Fulcan> Lucas: DBZ
[17:53] <@Falerin> Roll your score/10 versus storyteller defined difficulty
[17:53] <Liliana> ine thing to note, training MUST BE RPED
[17:53] <@Falerin> min of 1
[17:53] <Liliana> if you are trying to train something rp it
[17:53] <@Falerin> so if you have 22 psi and try to read minds at diff 4
[17:53] <@Falerin> it is
[17:53] <@Falerin> #nh 2 4
[17:53] <Roch> Actually RP lifting weights, if you are strength training. Don't just say you did.
[17:53] <@Falerin> er
[17:53] <@Falerin> hz
[17:54] <@Falerin> #hz 2 4
[17:54] <RPGServ> New Horizon Results for Falerin:
[17:54] <Lkeas> so how do you know if your training paid off?
[17:54] <RPGServ> 4 8
[17:54] <RPGServ> Total dice: 2, Diff was 4: Successes <2>, Botches <0>, Net <2>
[17:54] <Lkeas> doesn't someone have to be around to award you training points?
[17:54] <Roch> To provide a simplistic example.
[17:54] <@Falerin> Correct
[17:54] <TSJustice> So, you succeeded in reading his mind?
[17:54] <@Falerin> yes
[17:54] <@Falerin> rather well
[17:54] <TSJustice> Ok
[17:54] <@Falerin> more successes = better depth
[17:54] <Aaron> Will we need to have someone to train our char?
[17:54] <KM2> That seemes a bit easy as far as mind-reading goes...
[17:54] <Lkeas> you can't just lift weights in the middle of the night while no DMs are around
[17:54] <@Falerin> Yes
[17:54] <Lucas_Michaels> Well, in Lucas's megaverse ki style blast are usually fired by utilising a persons inner P.P.E. (Potential Psychic energy) Which is Lucas's home megaverse's equivilant of mp
[17:55] <@Falerin> All training requires a trainer
[17:55] <Lkeas> where do trainers come from?
[17:55] <@Falerin> and all must be done ICly
[17:55] <TSJustice> Just so I'm clear, existing characters can redo their skills?
[17:55] <Mordecai> For curiosity and testing purposes:
[17:55] <Mordecai> #nhscores
[17:55] <Aaron> Can one char train another?
[17:55] <@Falerin> Hunting down NPC trainers
[17:55] <Mordecai> ...Hm.
[17:55] <@Falerin> yes
[17:55] <Lkeas> it's hz not nh cerb
[17:55] *** MSamAFK has quit IRC: Ping timeout: 121 seconds

[17:55] <TSJustice> Yes to whom?
[17:55] <KM2> it's hz scores
[17:55] <@Falerin> but ONLY if your score is at least 5 points higher

[17:56] <Mordecai> ...Oh.
[17:56] <Lkeas> oh nm
[17:56] <Lkeas> no z
[17:56] <TSJustice> Hehe
[17:56] <KM2> Oh
[17:56] <Lucas_Michaels> I guess Ki style blasts could fall under your inner magic power/mp maybe, I dont know XD
[17:56] <Mordecai> He certainly seems to have spread it though.
[17:56] <Lkeas> how many times can you stat roll for your character?
[17:56] <TSJustice> Does it use the old sytem?
[17:56] <@Falerin> Playing a totally new character Erica may provide benefit of not having baggage but it is equally amnesiac about its new history
[17:57] <Aaron> I'd assume once unless you use mauve
[17:57] <@Falerin> ALL Characters at least for the next year or so.. have merge amnesia
[17:57] <TSJustice> Oh
[17:57] <@Falerin> and must discover the world and themselves
[17:57] <@Falerin> Thats part of the settings nature
[17:57] <Liliana> how are we doing shapeshifters, or any character that has forms that change their stats
[17:57] <@Falerin> Makes all people on equal footing
[17:57] <Mordecai> So after roughly a year passes, memories begin to integrate?
[17:57] <Fulcan> Falerin, are you familiar with the Stand Ability from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure? It's relevant, I'm not just making small talk.
[17:57] <@Falerin> Shapeshifting is a power
[17:57] <TSJustice> What if they were outside creation at the time of the merge?
[17:57] <@Falerin> and they may no longer have it
[17:57] <Liliana> is it under magic then?
[17:57] <Hiro> what about forms like hiro
[17:58] <@Falerin> Either magic or minor alteration only to self
[17:58] <@Falerin> depending on the nature of the shifting
[17:58] <TSJustice> Does a character like that still have the amnesia?
[17:58] <Lkeas> everybody has amnesia
[17:58] <Aaron> when will we roll for stats and does a staff need to be around for it?
[17:58] <TSJustice> Eh, ok
[17:58] <Mordecai> Refer to what I earlier said, TSJ.
[17:58] <Liliana> what would decide if its magic or alteration?
[17:58] <Fulcan> >_<
[17:58] <@Falerin> Werewolves
[17:58] <@Falerin> things like tat
[17:59] <@Falerin> magic
[17:59] <@Falerin> Demon forms
[17:59] <@Falerin> magic
[17:59] <@Falerin> Altering fundamental laws of biology
[17:59] <@Falerin> Alteration
[17:59] <Lkeas> example?
[17:59] <Lucas_Michaels> Would flying fall under alteration?
[17:59] <Lucas_Michaels> Wingless flight I mean
[17:59] <Mordecai> Would racial aspects still apply? IE Cerbero's mutable Human/Ikryu backside.
[17:59] <Liliana> Id assume Naamahs symbiote is using alteration then
[17:59] <TSJustice> Magical, perhaps, Lucas
[17:59] <@Falerin> A being who can shift their form at will growing gills assuming any animal shape
[18:00] <@Falerin> is altering themselves
[18:00] <KM2> Is altering the laws of physic under alteration or magic?
[18:00] <TSJustice> I'll assume the steam is magical then
[18:00] <TSJustice> Alteration
[18:00] <@Falerin> Actually altering the laws of any thing outside the worlds normal "paradigm"
[18:00] <Liliana> yeah alteration, luckily it wasnt statted before, i think im going to need the 75 point system for it
[18:00] <@Falerin> requires alteration
[18:00] *** Mordecai is now known as Cerb|BRB
[18:00] *** MSamAFK has joined #NH-Mechanics
[18:00] <@Falerin> Though individual settings may have additional restrictions
[18:00] <Lucas_Michaels> So flying like a superhero would be alteration then?
[18:00] <@Falerin> Using magic in magic dead zones
[18:00] <Macha> I have a very importent question fal. Would people from our charcters history that should be dead, still be dead or can they turn up alive
[18:00] <@Falerin> for instance
[18:00] <Aaron> I think he might mean like bending the laws of physics
[18:00] <@Falerin> requires resisting paradox
[18:01] <@Falerin> Concensus is local
[18:01] <Fulcan> Falerin: What about a person's spirit that can exit their body, in the form of a familiar spirit, or some form of solid weapon? A sort of physical manifestation of their spirit, if you will?
[18:01] <@Falerin> <Macha> I have a very importent question fal. Would people from our charcters history that should be dead, still be dead or can they turn up alive
[18:01] <@Falerin> A good question kevin
[18:01] <@Falerin> Because the history of the worlds have changed in the merge
[18:01] <@Falerin> the later is a distinct possibility
[18:01] <@Falerin> Though it would be less common
[18:01] <@Falerin> then maintaining close to original consensus
[18:01] *** Rimblade has joined #NH-Mechanics
[18:02] <Lkeas> i assume we still need questionnaires in addition to ability scores?
[18:02] <@Falerin> <Fulcan> Falerin: What about a person's spirit that can exit their body, in the form of a familiar spirit, or some form of solid weapon? A sort of physical manifestation of their spirit, if you will?
[18:02] <TSJustice> Once they are impliminted
[18:02] <@Falerin> this is astral projection
[18:02] <@Falerin> or telelocation
[18:02] <@Falerin> and suggets magic or psychic
[18:02] <@Falerin> depending
[18:02] <Fulcan> Would you like a more specific example?
[18:02] <TSJustice> Like thought/form projection?
[18:02] <Travis> Would Illusions still be magic or Alteration?
[18:03] <@Falerin> Questionaires will be required but we will be less restrictive
[18:03] <@Falerin> since they now apply to your original memories only
[18:03] <TSJustice> Yes! Thank you fro that
[18:03] <@Falerin> not to your new form
[18:03] <Lkeas> ah
[18:03] <@Falerin> at least for now
[18:03] <Lkeas> what about the ability list? or are we not allowed to know what our abilities are?
[18:03] <@Falerin> You may have been a god before
[18:03] <KM2> Tell me if I got this straight: Flying by manipulating air current is magic; flying by making yourself extempt from the laws of gravuty is alteration
[18:03] <TSJustice> Better get my questionaire done faster then
[18:04] <@Falerin> and now be a cobble from spain
[18:04] <Genoclysm> Of course that means that ultimately what your current "real" history is is up to Fal.
[18:04] <@Falerin> er Cobbler
[18:04] <@Falerin> Quite so
[18:04] <@Falerin> Though I will do it sensibly and I will tend to do it with you
[18:04] <@Falerin> <KM2> Tell me if I got this straight: Flying by manipulating air current is magic; flying by making yourself extempt from the laws of gravuty is alteration
[18:05] <@Falerin> Wingless flight is established in many continuities as a magical effect
[18:05] <Hiro> so wait, if a characters powers changed. its determined by mods what it changed to?
[18:05] <@Falerin> in those it is magic
[18:05] <@Falerin> if however you cause gravity to cease
[18:05] <@Falerin> for all people arround you
[18:05] <Lkeas> i assume it's based on your new scores hiro
[18:05] <@Falerin> thats alteration
[18:05] <@Falerin> quite definitely
[18:05] <Lkeas> if you used to have powerful magic but you roll a lousy magic score...
[18:05] <@Falerin> New scores will determine limits
[18:05] <Lucas_Michaels> So superhero style flight would count as magical
[18:05] <@Falerin> specifics WILL be determined by mods
[18:05] <TSJustice> ok
[18:05] <Lucas_Michaels> Since it applies to only that person
[18:06] <TSJustice> Again, do existing chars redo their stats?
[18:06] <@Falerin> Though you are not straight jacketed by your new past
[18:06] <Namegduf> Yes, he said so.
[18:06] <Macha> YEs
[18:06] <TSJustice> Ok
[18:06] <@Falerin> you can reject it and train quite differently
[18:06] <TSJustice> Making sure
[18:06] <KM2> What if you simply bestowed wingless flight to everyone aroud you, that's just finding other ways to get the same end result, right? Not that I have any problems with many methods of reaching an objective
[18:06] <Macha> Just we don't get to pick them. The dice do
[18:06] <Hiro> I mean type of magic, like elemental if it changed is it determined by a mod what it changes to?
[18:06] <@Falerin> Since everyting involves retraining or relearing
[18:06] <Fulcan> Falerin, would you like a more specific example of what I'm talking about, to determine if it's magic or psychic?
[18:06] <Lkeas> >.> perhaps we should stick to general mechanics for now and worry about specifics of wingless flight etc. later?
[18:07] <Namegduf> Talking D&D, could you say any D&D spell level equivalents to spell scores?
[18:07] <Namegduf> Well, magic power.
[18:07] <@Falerin> Since those abilities are unlike to exist intitially fulcan
[18:07] <Travis> And perhaps we should have one person ask a question at a time.
[18:07] <KM2> I'm just using flight as an example to how restrictive any rules are as to how to accomplish a given task
[18:07] <@Falerin> and would have to be ones you seek out a trainer to learn
[18:07] <@Falerin> it really des not matter
[18:07] <Fulcan> Really?
[18:07] <@Falerin> trainers exist for literally anything
[18:07] <@Falerin> If you are willing to spend the money and risk
[18:07] <Aaron> So will we be doing the stat rolling here or somewhere else?
[18:08] <@Falerin> Finding one and paying their cost will be the issue
[18:08] <@Falerin> Rolling is here
[18:08] <Fulcan> I got the idea from a Japanese manga, where the abilities were natural, born into people.
[18:08] <Aaron> does a staff have to be here to roll?
[18:08] <@Falerin> Yes but in the remake of your past fulcan
[18:08] <@Falerin> even race can change
[18:08] <Fulcan> Ah, okay.
[18:08] <Lucas_Michaels> So Lucas could now be a half-dragon or an elf
[18:09] <KM2> And that person could remember being a race he now hates
[18:09] <@Falerin> Indeed
[18:09] <Fulcan> Wait, I'm confused now. With the whole remaking of the pasts, does that mean that the character's race could change as well?
[18:09] <@Falerin> its like reincarnation
[18:09] <Liliana> yes
[18:09] <@Falerin> Yes fulcan
[18:09] <Liliana> race can change
[18:09] <Fulcan> Oi vey.
[18:09] <Fulcan> Do we get to decide what it is?
[18:09] <TSJustice> I share your sentiment
[18:09] <@Falerin> Though I will tend toward near races
[18:09] <Lucas_Michaels> Lucas will turn into a scotsman! XD
[18:09] <Macha> XD
[18:09] <Lucas_Michaels> Monty python ftw XD
[18:09] <TSJustice> Do they HAVE to change?
[18:09] <Genoclysm> Fulcan, all that has been answered.
[18:09] <@Falerin> Largely I wont take a Elf and turn him into a wendigo
[18:09] <Genoclysm> Fal has final say.
[18:09] <Clyde> XD
[18:09] <Liliana> thatd be sweet
[18:10] <Lkeas> ok, so what do the players have to do for now? just roll or assign scores?
[18:10] <@Falerin> Or a seraph and turn him into a pixie
[18:10] <Genoclysm> (turn Rim into an elf.)
[18:10] <Fulcan> :(
[18:10] <TSJustice> Turn him into a hilt
[18:10] <KM2> So new character have the advantage of chosing a bit more what/who they want to be
[18:10] <@Falerin> I might be that evil
[18:10] <Macha> Yes please! that would be evil!
[18:10] *** Rixis is now known as Allen
[18:10] <Aaron> (I agree with Geno)
[18:10] <Hiro> whats the difference between fulcan and a pixie again?
[18:10] <Travis> ( Way ahead of you, Geno )
[18:10] <Hiro> D:
[18:10] <TSJustice> Me as well
[18:10] <@Falerin> Vyt rim would assasinate me
[18:10] <Fulcan> Seraph to Pixie would be terribly unwanted. But then again, Fulcan's not allowed into the RP anyways...
[18:10] <Travis> ( *points to Truthseekers* )
[18:10] <@Falerin> I was already on fishing creek valley road today
[18:10] <@Falerin> far to close to him using the canons
[18:11] * Hiro is still adjusting his aim D:<
[18:11] <@Falerin> Primarily what is needed now is rolling and or assigning points
[18:11] <Lkeas> ok
[18:11] <@Falerin> and if its totally new giving me an idea of your old history
[18:12] <TSJustice> So, we will be burning that bridge when we get to it, then?
[18:12] <Liliana> i think we may need to mod channel, then voice one person at a time to do stats
[18:12] <KM2> Just an idea? That's not like you att all
[18:12] <@Falerin> Questionaire provides good guidelines but we wont reject for slight missing information
[18:12] <Liliana> and of course oping all mods to speak
[18:12] <@Falerin> with the caveat that anything goes
[18:12] <@Falerin> and I will revise you as appropraite
[18:12] <@Falerin> er Appropriate
[18:13] <Lkeas> should the old history be different from what the stats are, due to the merge? or can we roll stats and create a character history based on the roll?
[18:13] <Genoclysm> I think it doesn't matter.
[18:13] <TSJustice> I hope it doesnt matter
[18:13] <Genoclysm> Though being at least mildly similar to the stats would make some sense.
[18:13] <@Falerin> it doesnt matter
[18:13] <Genoclysm> Not everyone will change drastically after all.
[18:14] <Lkeas> but if the whole point of the new storyline is that nobody knows who they are, it'd be kind of strange to have a backstory that matches what your current stats are
[18:14] <@Falerin> Though being at least mildly similar to the stats would make some sense.
[18:14] <Lkeas> well true
[18:14] <@Falerin> Reality does attempt to find a norm
[18:14] <@Falerin> It just sometimes does a poor job at it
[18:14] <Liliana> right, like my character Nina, she isnt changed much other than being sort of known
[18:14] <TSJustice> So, say my character ha magical elemental steam. He keeps that ability?
[18:15] <Lkeas> your character already re-rolled, Lil?
[18:15] <TSJustice> Rechecking
[18:15] <Liliana> no
[18:15] <Liliana> but she wont be changed much
[18:15] <@Falerin> he may or he may not but I am not going to totally shatter character concepts
[18:15] <Liliana> the abode already said a piece of her new history
[18:15] <@Falerin> At least.... I will rarely do so...
[18:15] <TSJustice> yay, thanks, Fal
[18:15] <Liliana> a few people were mentioned ic already
[18:15] <KM2> I knew that was coming....
[18:15] <Aaron> will we be doing the rolling one by one? or will everyone be doing it at once?
[18:15] <Genoclysm> I get the feeling I might lose my hax flame.
[18:15] <Lkeas> >.>
[18:16] <TSJustice> Your not lacking aheart like i thought after all!
[18:16] <Travis> Aaron: I'm hoping one by one. All at once would be confusing.
[18:16] <@Falerin> loss of H4X abilities is quite likely
[18:16] <@Falerin> across the board
[18:16] <@Falerin> that I will say
[18:16] <Liliana> If a player has an idea of what they want their new skillset to be thats radically different from their old one is that allowed?
[18:16] <TSJustice> Geno, does Jeice still exist?
[18:16] <Roch> And again, we can use the okra system to mold our characters into something closer to what they were.
[18:16] <Genoclysm> Yes.
[18:16] <Genoclysm> Of course.
[18:16] <TSJustice> Use him?
[18:16] <Lkeas> if the highest stat anybody can have at this point is 25... what sort power is that?
[18:16] <Genoclysm> He was there when it all rematerialized.
[18:16] <@Falerin> If they want to recreate their character and deliberately alter its history dramatically
[18:16] <@Falerin> I will entertain requests
[18:16] <TSJustice> So use him
[18:16] <Genoclysm> TSJustice, I think you missed something.
[18:17] <@Falerin> but make no promises
[18:17] <Aaron> they can have higher Lkeas
[18:17] <TSJustice> I think I did
[18:17] <Genoclysm> Jeice is a phoenix.
[18:17] <Namegduf> Lkeas: 25, for non-rolled.
[18:17] *** MSamAFK is now known as MasterSamak
[18:17] <Namegduf> Lkeas: But everyone is rolling.
[18:17] <Genoclysm> Thus the "hax flame"
[18:17] <Genoclysm> Or was a phoenix...
[18:17] <Travis> He's a rock now.
[18:17] <@Falerin> Fudge is right its only 25 for non rolled
[18:17] <Lkeas> perhaps i don't plan on bringing back the Archivist, NL :P
[18:17] <KM2> Eveyone but new characters are rolling...
[18:17] <TSJustice> Oh, ut hse was such fun?
[18:17] <TSJustice> *!
[18:17] <@Falerin> Any 25 is human average
[18:17] <@Falerin> It is moderate starting character ability
[18:18] <KM2> Trained human average?
[18:18] <Lkeas> what about 25 magic?
[18:18] <Aaron> you can roll if it isn't a new char Lkeas
[18:18] <Lkeas> what is the advantage of rolling for a new char?
[18:18] <TSJustice> 25 magic would be archmage level then?
[18:18] <@Falerin> no
[18:18] <Genoclysm> What the heck did you just say, TSJustice?
[18:18] <Lkeas> lol
[18:18] <Genoclysm> "ut hse"?
[18:18] <Fulcan> Dude...
[18:18] <TSJustice> I messed that entire thing up
[18:18] *** Cerb|BRB is now known as Cerb|AFK
[18:18] <@Falerin> 25 magic is basic proficiency
[18:18] <TSJustice> Forget that comment
[18:18] <Cerb|AFK> Having failed to catch up, I'll ask:
[18:18] *** Cerb|AFK is now known as Mordecai
[18:19] <@Falerin> the max a score can be is 100
[18:19] <Namegduf> What kind of magic would 'basic proficiency' be capable of?
[18:19] <Lkeas> sooo... like "Lightning Bolt," or "Megashock?"
[18:19] <Mordecai> Given that race may also change, should we assume it has, or do we get to decide if such has happened?
[18:19] <@Falerin> Though beyond 50 or so things get harder
[18:19] <KM2> Please say fire
[18:19] <TSJustice> I'll just say: I hate sticky keys
[18:19] <Aaron> SO when will new chars be rerolling, and will it be in a structured fashion?
[18:19] <@Falerin> Even basic proficiency can do the most powerful magics John
[18:19] <Mordecai> Disable it in control pannel, TSJ
[18:19] <Mordecai> accessibility option.
[18:19] <Mordecai> *options
[18:19] <TSJustice> He, never thought of that
[18:19] <@Falerin> but the difficulty for a 25 magic person to summon a god against its will
[18:19] <@Falerin> will be commensurately higher
[18:20] <Namegduf> Ah, I see.
[18:20] <@Falerin> and the number of dice in their pool to roll
[18:20] <Lkeas> heh
[18:20] <@Falerin> will also be much lower
[18:20] <@Falerin> difficulties both go up
[18:20] <@Falerin> and available dice are always limited by score/10
[18:20] <Namegduf> Difficulty of, say, 12? Heh.
[18:20] <@Falerin> A diff one
[18:20] <@Falerin> is like a common cantrip
[18:20] <Namegduf> Oh, right.
[18:20] * Namegduf forgot, it's d10. And has reroll rules.
[18:20] <@Falerin> I make lights sparkle
[18:21] <@Falerin> set my finger on fire
[18:21] <@Falerin> etc
[18:21] <Namegduf> Zippo finger, right.
[18:21] <Mordecai> Falerin, since my remaining time is relative leaning to few, could you answer me please? Or if you have already, repaste?
[18:21] <KM2> Setting your own finger on fire looks so useful.....
[18:21] <@Falerin> Cerbero?
[18:21] <Mordecai> <Mordecai> Given that race may also change, should we assume it has, or do we get to decide if such has happened?
[18:21] <@Falerin> Reask
[18:21] <Namegduf> KM2: Without hurting it.
[18:21] <@Falerin> Nothing about your history is guaranteed
[18:22] <Namegduf> KM2: Typically used same way you'd use a lighter.
[18:22] <@Falerin> but I will try to keep things close to normal where race is concerned
[18:22] <Namegduf> KM2: To set readily flamable things, say a book, on fire.
[18:22] <@Falerin> unless you WANT me to do otherwise
[18:22] <KM2> I like my version better.....
[18:22] <Mordecai> Ah, okay. What traits should we assume now differ? In the range of obvious human appearance, that is.
[18:22] <@Falerin> then I will entertain requests
[18:22] <@Falerin> but I will not guarantee
[18:22] <Macha> Being able to hold fire without harming yourself is a skill any mage practiceing with fire magic should know anyways
[18:22] <Namegduf> I'd assume that 'not burning yourself' would be a part of pulling off the spell properly.
[18:22] <Lucas_Michaels> Spell Idea's, "Big sister" "Cone of annoyance" Dont know what the difficulties for those castings would be though XD
[18:23] <@Falerin> Aye
[18:23] <Rimblade> Half Raksha half werewolf.
[18:23] <@Falerin> if you botch flame finger
[18:23] <@Falerin> your robes set on fire
[18:23] <@Falerin> ouch
[18:23] <@Falerin> <Mordecai> Ah, okay. What traits should we assume now differ? In the range of obvious human appearance, that is.
[18:23] <@Falerin> you should assume none
[18:23] <@Falerin> you will discover
[18:23] <Namegduf> So how quickly does the difficulty increase?
[18:23] <@Falerin> otherwise if it applies
[18:23] <Mordecai> Good, that should prevent an extent of confusion.
[18:24] <Macha> One of these days I need to find and excuse to cast Omega Murder blast. Can take out a 20 story building but only harms one creature (Aside from any damage caused by the destruction of the surroundings
[18:24] <Mordecai> And greatly expand your potential to be evil <.<
[18:24] <Mordecai> *room
[18:24] <Lkeas> >.>
[18:24] <@Falerin> Oh yes
[18:24] <@Falerin> My room for evil is quite expanded
[18:24] <@Falerin> muhahahaha
[18:24] <Fulcan> Evil is fun.
[18:24] <Lkeas> how often will sessions happen?
[18:24] <Mordecai> You know, in my oppinion? The most evil thing you did in the past session was making Benny speak and be noticed.
[18:24] <Fulcan> Apparently Facebook says I'm Chaotic Evil. I don't see how.
[18:25] <Mordecai> Yay for True Neutral.
[18:25] * Fulcan snipes Mordecai with Guns n' Roses.
[18:25] <@Falerin> Lkeas. Freeform will be open as per usual fixed sessions. and fixed storylines in given islands will be like the epics at will. And since we allow player scenarios
[18:25] <TSJustice> Apparently, I' Chaotic insame
[18:25] <TSJustice> *insane
[18:25] <@Falerin> players may also SCHEDULE
[18:25] <Fulcan> I like this whole "trainers for everything" motif.
[18:25] <@Falerin> regular times that happen
[18:25] <Lkeas> ahh
[18:26] <@Falerin> in their purview
[18:26] <Fulcan> So getting a sniper stand. >:D
[18:26] <@Falerin> so we will have all 3 in essence
[18:26] <@Falerin> day to day rp chatting
[18:26] *** Daniel has left #NH-Mechanics
[18:26] * Mordecai leaps through the window into the cold november rain
[18:26] <@Falerin> shooting the shit
[18:26] <@Falerin> in the abode
[18:26] <@Falerin> the new one
[18:26] <@Falerin> Epics run by me or other staff
[18:26] <TSJustice> Then the Abode still exists?
[18:26] <@Falerin> and ongoing adventures run by anyone
[18:27] <Lkeas> cool
[18:27] <TSJustice> Nice
[18:27] <Macha> Oh yes. The abode most definity still exists. We've KNOWN that
[18:27] <@Falerin> The abode was among the beings reset and the analog abode does not know its history either
[18:27] <Macha> It did for a moment <.M<
[18:27] <@Falerin> But it is still arround yes
[18:27] <Fulcan> Wait Fal, humor me here. Say that I train with the familiar spirit guy, do I get to decide what mine looks like or will he?
[18:27] <TSJustice> But it wont kick us out
[18:27] <Macha> *<.<
[18:27] <@Falerin> Within limits yes
[18:27] <Lkeas> ok, and you mentioned players can train other players if their stats are at least 5 points higher - should those training sessions be logged and sent to staff for approval?
[18:27] <@Falerin> but that must be RPed in character
[18:27] <Fulcan> Yeah.
[18:27] <@Falerin> and with staff approval
[18:28] <Fulcan> I'm just curious as to how one would develop a familiar.
[18:28] <@Falerin> None of this is meant to straight jacket.... at all... in fact it expands options
[18:28] <Liliana> no one should be able to train anyone anytime soon tho, because with the flux people do not know how to use their powers
[18:28] <@Falerin> but it does create a layer of uncertainty and chaos
[18:28] <Aaron> does rped training of another char have to be detailed?
[18:28] <Fulcan> Over time, or just unlock some mental lock that makes it show up, and you have to practice with it over time to get better with it?
[18:28] <@Falerin> Undetermined
[18:28] <Fulcan> Fair enough.
[18:28] <Fulcan> So when does NH start
[18:28] <Fulcan> ?
[18:29] <@Falerin> at the moment you should anticipate all training requires an NPC
[18:29] <TSJustice> You?
[18:29] <Liliana> it has to be fairly detailed, as in actually played out for a reasonable amount of time, abode is real time after all
[18:29] <Aaron> because say I want to train another character in sword play, but I have no idea what swordplay would be like
[18:29] <Macha> NH has already started Fulc
[18:29] <Lkeas> ok
[18:29] <Fulcan> z0mgwtf.
[18:29] <@Falerin> NH free form has already begun
[18:29] <TSJustice> My brain is starting to smoke

[18:29] <TSJustice> I'm turning on the fan
[18:29] <Mordecai> Welcome to the abodee condition.
[18:29] <@Falerin> None of this is really that complicated
[18:29] <Macha> The abodees are already there and sitting around trying to figure out what to do with their new lives
[18:30] <Liliana> yes, no one has played since the first day beause we didnt know what was going on enough, but it can be played whenevr
[18:30] <Roch> Should we make any assumptions about retained equipment, etc?
[18:30] <@Falerin> Just assume your character is as baffled as you are
[18:30] <@Falerin> and you are just about right
[18:30] <Lkeas> what is the setting of the new place?
[18:30] <@Falerin> Equipment WILL have been maintaing
[18:30] <Lkeas> inside the abode?
[18:30] <Liliana> same as old
[18:30] <TSJustice> I know, but I'm running on adrenaline from a past activity and not thinking quite straight right now
[18:30] <@Falerin> The abode is mobile as before
[18:30] <Mordecai> Falerin? How would the process of regaining priorly possessed power, if applicable or possible, be eased by the retained knowledge thereof?
[18:30] <Liliana> it is the ardendor arms abode as far as was implied
[18:30] <@Falerin> and the main setting remains the abode for the freeform
[18:30] <Aaron> So Fal if our char has certain knowledge like swordplay that we as players don't really have knowledge of
[18:30] <Roch> It's just hard to know how to play without even knowing my gender, or what I am wearing, or what pieces of equipment I have at my disposal.
[18:30] <Aaron> how would we train others
[18:31] <@Falerin> And it is presently in the Ardendor Arms skyscraper form in seattle pime
[18:31] <Macha> You cleary wing it :P
[18:31] <@Falerin> which is among the realities merged
[18:31] <KM2> What if, knowing myself nothing about how it was before, I happen to not be baffled? Is my eventual character exempted from confusion? XD
[18:31] <Macha> As I asked before, can we have a list of confirmed mearged realities?
[18:31] <Lkeas> ok, so the penthouse type thingie?
[18:31] <@Falerin> You may assume the abode functions as before in general
[18:31] <@Falerin> Aye
[18:31] <@Falerin> Including things like the garden etc
[18:31] <Lkeas> ok
[18:32] <Aaron> And since it has not yet been answered when and how will rerolling be taking place?
[18:32] <Genoclysm> Neggera, Odeycia, Seattle Prime, Caelestia, and some others were confirmed.
[18:32] <@Falerin> I did answe already
[18:32] <Lkeas> but i assume we should not be attempting spells or whatnot during freeform until our stats have been approved?
[18:32] <Aaron> where?
[18:32] <@Falerin> I said
[18:32] <@Falerin> rolling will occur here
[18:32] <Fulcan> WE SHOULD ADD DEL`EILOS TO THE MIX.
[18:32] <Liliana> no abilities function currently
[18:32] <@Falerin> And until we get stats working
[18:32] <Liliana> and you can if you like Fulcan if you submit world info
[18:32] <@Falerin> abilities do not function
[18:32] <Hiro> <Fulcan> WE SHOULD ADD DEL`EILOS TO THE MIX. < you have ti submit info for the world I think
[18:32] <Liliana> XD
[18:33] <Hiro> to*
[18:33] <Aaron> I know it will occur here. Will we be doing it at a certain time or be doing it in a structured manner?
[18:33] <TSJustice> Can we add my chars world, Metaralesta?
[18:33] <Fulcan> No... I wouldn't do that.
[18:33] <Aaron> Or will we just do it when we want to?
[18:33] <Fulcan> Del`Eilos could never survive. haha
[18:33] <KM2> Rolling WILL occur here, or IS happening here, or WOULD be happening here if someone actuallt rolled?
[18:33] <@Falerin> I will not give comprehensive lists of merged worlds
[18:33] <@Falerin> because it is far from determined comprehensively due to the chaos
[18:33] <Macha> Can we have a list of ones already know about IC?
[18:33] <@Falerin> further, that ruins the suprise
[18:33] <@Falerin> Affirmative
[18:33] <Mordecai> Negerra, Odeycia, Seattle Prime and Caelestia, Macha.
[18:33] <TSJustice> Well, Caelestia is confirmed
[18:34] <@Falerin> Geno just provided it
[18:34] <Liliana> all the ones geno mentioned plus orphic
[18:34] <Macha> Is that all?
[18:34] <Macha> Ah
[18:34] <Liliana> those are the only knowns
[18:34] <@Falerin> Caelestia Odecyia Seattle Prime Caelestia
[18:34] <Liliana> and it is known lore did NOT merg
[18:34] <Liliana> e
[18:34] <Lkeas> what's the difference between a character that comes from a merged world and one that doesn't? non-merged means the memories/abilities are intact?
[18:34] <@Falerin> with Seattle Prime already being a merged reality
[18:34] <@Falerin> of orphic and thrid city
[18:34] <Hiro> didnt you mentioned puddles' too fal?
[18:34] <@Falerin> er yes
[18:34] <@Falerin> Vrtlux
[18:34] <Genoclysm> ...
[18:34] <Genoclysm> oshi-
[18:34] <Aaron> non merged means some memories and abilities will intact to an extant I think
[18:35] <TSJustice> So, TSJustice comes fro Lore, he doesn't have amnesia?
[18:35] <Travis> o.o
[18:35] <@Falerin> Nonmerged means most memories are unchanged
[18:35] <Genoclysm> We are all going to die horrible deaths.
[18:35] <@Falerin> up to the characters entrey into the world
[18:35] <@Falerin> at that point things shifted
[18:35] * Hiro only remembers the amb or w/e of the one city , orphic, puddles, genos, cael
[18:35] <Mordecai> BRB
[18:35] *** MasterSamak is now known as MSamAFK
[18:35] <@Falerin> and thereafter the chaos exist
[18:35] <KM2> Execpt those memories realting to the worlds which have merged? Right?
[18:35] <@Falerin> but the only nonmerged realities
[18:35] <Liliana> right, he would have some amnesia of the time he has been in abode
[18:35] <@Falerin> allowed as present
[18:35] <@Falerin> is Lore
[18:35] <Liliana> before that he rememvers
[18:35] <Lkeas> ah.
[18:35] <@Falerin> none other is permitted
[18:36] <@Falerin> except if specifically informed otherwise
[18:36] <Hiro> whats the email for submissions?
[18:36] <Hiro> D:
[18:36] <@Falerin> As before
[18:36] <Genoclysm> Same
[18:36] <TSJustice> I'm going to take this time to insert a WF question: Will the WarpForce visit this merged superword?
[18:36] <Macha> I doubt that changed :P
[18:36] <Hiro> I dont know what that is
[18:36] <Lkeas> so if a new character comes from a merged reality, none of their memories are intact?
[18:36] <Hiro> :|
[18:36] <@Falerin> abodecharsubmission@gmail
[18:36] <Liliana> i think he forgets it :P
[18:36] <TSJustice> *superworld
[18:36] <Liliana> XD
[18:36] <Genoclysm> Likely not, TSJustice.
[18:36] <Hiro> i couldnt find it in the ts topic
[18:36] <@Falerin> You can also send to newhorizonchars@gmail
[18:36] <@Falerin> if you feel the need
[18:36] <@Falerin> but it just autoforwards
[18:36] <Liliana> and that would be tellin tsj :P
[18:36] * Hiro sends world info 8U
[18:37] <TSJustice> Yeah, had to try
[18:37] <Macha> That reminds me... I need to get a full history of my world and give it to you one of these days....
[18:37] * Travis should type up a full history of one or two of his worlds.
[18:37] <@Falerin> That would be helpful kevin though neggera is subjected to change
[18:38] <TSJustice> My world history is ready, but my personal history is suffering from writers block
[18:38] <@Falerin> the more information I have
[18:38] <Mordecai> ...Ack! I need to get around to doing the biological details of Gean races.
[18:38] <@Falerin> the more like the original it is likely to be
[18:38] <Aaron> So when can we start with stat rolling? As in should we ait till this is over or for a specific time?
[18:38] <@Falerin> If you do it in the presence of staff
[18:38] <@Falerin> and the record it
[18:38] <@Falerin> you can do it whenever you like
[18:38] <Mordecai> Would those be useful to you, Falerin? Though I don't plan on Gea to be merged; should I submit a character from there, I would pass you the relevant race sheets along with other application requirements
[18:39] <@Falerin> sooner is better then 2080
[18:39] <Liliana> you cant have a character from a nonmerged world except lore
[18:39] <Mordecai> Ah. Thanks.
[18:39] <Liliana> not until some point in the way didtant future
[18:39] <TSJustice> That works
[18:39] <Liliana> distant too
[18:40] <@Falerin> though again even if the world is merged
[18:40] <@Falerin> it can be assumed to be a world analog
[18:40] <TSJustice> An alt world works as well
[18:40] <Mordecai> Trippy.
[18:40] <@Falerin> You maintain your own rights to run your original as you wish
[18:40] <Mordecai> For the character, that is
[18:40] <@Falerin> CHARACTERS however will no longer bamf off world
[18:40] *** MSamAFK is now known as MasterSamak
[18:40] <@Falerin> and then back again
[18:40] <@Falerin> at will
[18:40] <@Falerin> thats a no go
[18:41] <@Falerin> since characters are all from this new world
[18:41] <Aaron> What about Lorian chars?
[18:41] <@Falerin> They can return to lore within limits if they have a means
[18:41] <@Falerin> And that means is significant
[18:41] <TSJustice> What if you have a contraption that allows you to shift...er, islands
[18:41] * Durroth personally votes for "kill them all"
[18:41] <@Falerin> Thats allowed
[18:41] <Mordecai> Does the abode still provide world transportation?
[18:41] <@Falerin> and the abode DOES have such
[18:41] <@Falerin> he gate/mechanism
[18:41] <@Falerin> will let you to bamf from island to island with limits
[18:41] <Rimblade> I still favor norse war-boats for transport.
[18:41] *** Coldkick is now known as Coldkick|STUDY
[18:42] <TSJustice> It is? Great! I can keep the Void Probe!
[18:42] <Liliana> what about old characters from nonmerged worlds? or are we to assume those characters worlds did merge as an alternate reality version?
[18:42] <@Falerin> some will not allow teleporting in
[18:42] <TSJustice> Rim! Shift into a hilt again!
[18:42] <@Falerin> And the chaos storms
[18:42] <@Falerin> will mess things up
[18:42] <@Falerin> If rimblade was a hilt again
[18:42] <TSJustice> Rim! Make your race a hilt!
[18:42] <@Falerin> Dynseal II would be madly jealou
[18:42] <@Falerin> s
[18:42] <TSJustice> Hehe, thats the piotn
[18:42] <@Falerin> and might try to assassinate himselve
[18:42] <TSJustice> *point
[18:42] <Hiro> we can just call it derrik
[18:43] <Hiro> :/
[18:43] <@Falerin> Thing is this new setting allows things like classic dungeon crawls
[18:43] <Aaron> So will this question session end at a set time?
[18:43] <@Falerin> among many other things
[18:43] <Rimblade> Aww, poor Dynseal.
[18:43] <@Falerin> that the past abode just could not
[18:43] <@Falerin> because of the power levels
[18:43] <TSJustice> Cool
[18:44] <Hiro> is there a basic outline for information to be submitted about island(realms)?
[18:44] <TSJustice> It won't be exactly like the epic
[18:44] <@Falerin> If you continue to encounter deities in the new setting
[18:44] <@Falerin> or dhe ehmn
[18:44] <@Falerin> expect they WILL kick your ass
[18:44] <TSJustice> Whoa! Even your patron deity?
[18:44] <Rimblade> Unless they're really pansy excuses for gods.
[18:44] <@Falerin> Or at least be able too
[18:44] <Mordecai> And do so all the way into orbit, if I estimate correctly
[18:44] <@Falerin> They may choose not to
[18:44] <Genoclysm> Anything and everything you can think of for the island you want to submit would be preferable.
[18:44] <@Falerin> but they can do so
[18:45] <Mordecai> Hm...
[18:45] <@Falerin> Also you can make up totally new islands
[18:45] <Macha> Unless their brinks gods. Then we can defeat them with a tissue <.<
[18:45] <@Falerin> if it is totally new and not your characters world
[18:45] <Hiro> <Genoclysm> Anything and everything you can think of for the island you want to submit would be preferable. < dont tell me this because I will send you a novel
[18:45] <@Falerin> ANYTHING at all goes
[18:45] <Mordecai> Does the new system entail that GM will have to design the histories of all characters who decide to discover their new ones?
[18:45] <TSJustice> Cus I'd kind of like the God of Random Chances to still be my planned char's deity
[18:45] <@Falerin> because its not clouded by your amnesia
[18:45] <@Falerin> I.e. if you as a player want to run a Oriental ninja setting
[18:46] <Travis> When you say island, do you mean island as in A single island from the character's world, or the entire character's world pushed together?
[18:46] <@Falerin> when your own world is future tech
[18:46] <Liliana> <Hiro> <Genoclysm> Anything and everything you can think of for the island you want to submit would be preferable. < dont tell me this because I will send you a novel <- Fal encourages Novels
[18:46] <Hiro> Id like to know if there is specific info that is totally defiantlly needed
[18:46] <@Falerin> so long as i have detail
[18:46] <@Falerin> tahts fine and dandy
[18:46] <KM2> Let's say the stat generator bugged up and gave you an Alteration Resistance of, say, 95. Would you be allowed to keep it, and if so, would said daity still be able to kick your ass?
[18:46] <Fulcan> Impossible.
[18:46] <Lkeas> will player run RPs generate XP?
[18:46] <@Falerin> That is a rhetorical question
[18:46] <Mordecai> ...Er. There's no IC reasoning whatsoever for that.
[18:46] <Hiro> yes lili but I dont want to write the novel AGAIN
[18:46] <@Falerin> that is impossible
[18:46] <Liliana> you do too
[18:46] <Liliana> get to it george XD
[18:46] <Liliana> and whip up one for Hiros history while you are at it
[18:46] <Aaron> if we get alteration power or resistance of more then 1 dice, can we keep it?
[18:47] <Hiro> IM totally summarizing that
[18:47] <Hiro> :|
[18:47] <Liliana> XD
[18:47] <@Falerin> Summary is okay
[18:47] <TSJustice> The diety would reduce that alteration to -1000and then destroy you
[18:47] <@Falerin> since the history is flexible
[18:47] <@Falerin> thats fine
[18:47] <Hiro> you dont get to know what his breath smelled like during the magical race ball
[18:47] <Hiro> D:<<
[18:47] <@Falerin> If you want to run an active setting however
[18:47] <Liliana> im guessing rum
[18:47] <@Falerin> you should provide detail enough to do that and so that the story tellers can assist
[18:47] <Travis> When you say island, do you mean island as in A single island from the character's world, or the entire character's world pushed together?
[18:47] <@Falerin> or else we will contradict eachother
[18:47] <@Falerin> and that sucks
[18:48] <@Falerin> "island" = island in the storm of chaos
[18:48] <TSJustice> I'm guessing the latter, Travis
[18:48] <@Falerin> i.e. its a zone
[18:48] <Liliana> Ive been picturing it as the later
[18:48] <Travis> Alright.
[18:48] <@Falerin> So the latter
[18:48] <Liliana> kind of like they all became their worlds pangea XD
[18:48] <@Falerin> more or less
[18:48] <TSJustice> Yeah
[18:48] <@Falerin> but they can be many continents in an island
[18:48] * Fulcan snipes TSJ with Guns n' Roses.
[18:48] * Hiro doesnt want to write all of the incarnations history for Hiro in every detail ;-; its bad enough writing vegas
[18:48] <@Falerin> and vast oceans and space too
[18:48] <@Falerin> thats fine
[18:48] <TSJustice> A mega, ultra, superworld bigger than Jupiter
[18:48] <@Falerin> quite
[18:48] <Macha> I'm pictureing as if you took a map of the world and layed it out on a much larger blank map in a random spot
[18:49] <TSJustice> That's what we're dealing ith?
[18:49] <Lkeas> will player run sessions generate XP for players? or how does the whole experience thing work?
[18:49] <KM2> In the case of a contradiction, is something taken back as if it had never happened, or is there now a new alternate reality?
[18:49] *** MasterSamak has quit IRC: Exterminated: Required elsewhere... as it were.
[18:49] <@Falerin> Kevin not a bad allegory
[18:49] <@Falerin> and islands will move and shift too
[18:49] <@Falerin> they float in the planes
[18:49] <Durroth> ... read that as allergy
[18:49] <@Falerin> So zones may change namers
[18:49] <Liliana> the abode never was much of an exp based system, exp that is awarded produces results when used, its not used for leveling
[18:49] <@Falerin> er neighbors
[18:49] <Hiro> we shall need
[18:49] <Hiro> A GUMMI SHIP Durroth
[18:49] <Hiro> get to it
[18:50] <@Falerin> it is now
[18:50] <Hiro> :D
[18:50] <Durroth> no hiro
[18:50] <@Falerin> well not level
[18:50] <Durroth> no
[18:50] <@Falerin> tehre is no idea of character level
[18:50] <Aaron> can we roll stats for new chars before writing a history?
[18:50] <Hiro> chip and dale shall be our pilots and mechanics
[18:50] <Hiro> D:<
[18:50] <@Falerin> but scores and training
[18:50] <@Falerin> like in WoD
[18:50] *** Mordecai is now known as Cerb|AFK
[18:50] <@Falerin> you may
[18:50] <Liliana> right
[18:50] <TSJustice> No Kingdom Hearts, God no, I don't want to have to weild a friggin' KEY as a weapon
[18:50] <Lkeas> that's why i asked if player sessions resulted in XP for training/scores. i mean what if players start running sessions just to rack up XP?
[18:50] <Lucas_Michaels> Zakiseta (Lucas's) arch-enemy may not be as powerful in this setting, a lot of characters in Lucas's home megaverse in this setting will probably be quite less powerful, :p
[18:50] <KM2> That would be a bit pointless to do in an RP
[18:50] <@Falerin> Sessions must have a staff memeber running them with them
[18:51] <Lkeas> ok
[18:51] <@Falerin> the player is a Codm not a main dm
[18:51] <TSJustice> Ok
[18:51] <@Falerin> and sessions must meet approval
[18:51] <Liliana> only gms assign exp and we will only give it if something that constitutes training was accomplished
[18:51] <@Falerin> and only staff not players design xp awards
[18:51] <KM2> What happpens in the case of a contradiction?
[18:51] <@Falerin> Chiefly in fact me
[18:51] <Liliana> right
[18:51] <@Falerin> Contradictions are not an issue
[18:51] <Lkeas> ah. so once a session meets approval, will a staff member assign XP, if any, to be awarded?
[18:51] <Genoclysm> I totally vote we utilize Gummi ships.
[18:51] <@Falerin> Because the world is dramatic
[18:51] <Lucas_Michaels> Player run sessions do use the same characters, rules and stats as main dm run sessions after all right?
[18:51] <@Falerin> Yes lkeas
[18:51] <Lkeas> makes sense
[18:52] <Macha> That means if someone runs a dozen settings in a week, the rewards are likely to be less
[18:52] <Lkeas> but sounds like a lot of work for the staff
[18:52] <@Falerin> Though they will accpept input from the player as faw as whether the other charaters interacted appropriately
[18:52] <@Falerin> within limits
[18:52] <Liliana> yes fal is a slave driver
[18:52] <@Falerin> a lot of work mostly for me
[18:52] <KM2> So, everyone's memory being fooged up, people expect themselves to think there are contradictions?
[18:52] *** Damsel has joined #NH-Mechanics
[18:52] <@Falerin> Aye
[18:52] <TSJustice> ike the AQ live event?
[18:52] * @Falerin examines courtney
[18:53] <Travis> That makes sense, TSJ.
[18:53] <KM2> That live event was evil
[18:53] <Liliana> perv
[18:53] <Aaron> So will this question session be ending at a certain time? cause I'd like to roll for stats when people aren't talking so much
[18:53] <@Falerin> I thought you were gone forever tonight
[18:53] <Damsel> Good evening, William
[18:53] <Damsel> I had work, what can I say?
[18:53] <@Falerin> This is not forever
[18:53] <TSJustice> It wasnt
[18:53] <@Falerin> This is still damned early
[18:53] <Damsel> I actually was lucky to get off when I did, and not at least an hour later
[18:53] <@Falerin> XD
[18:53] <Damsel> Aye
[18:53] <TSJustice> Damsel! Hi
[18:53] <Lkeas> Fal was running a sekret meeting since he thought you were gone XD
[18:54] <@Falerin> Yes so very secret
[18:54] <Damsel> Glad to crash the party then.  :P
[18:54] <@Falerin> I gave them a rundown of the new setting and system
[18:54] <@Falerin> the character submission process
[18:54] <Damsel> Wonderful
[18:54] <@Falerin> the fact that ability sheets are suspended atm since you have no idea what your actual abities will be
[18:54] * TSJustice whispers to Aaron. Is she sounding angry/
[18:54] <@Falerin> and that questionaires are less scrutinized
[18:54] <@Falerin> because you could have been a god
[18:54] <@Falerin> and now farm potatoes
[18:55] <KM2> Is all of this information recorded, or to be recorded, somewhere?
[18:55] * Damsel chuckles
[18:55] <Damsel> Is there any chance I might get some logs sent my way?
[18:55] *** Finis has quit IRC: Ping timeout: 121 seconds
[18:55] <@Falerin> and also detailed the Quest/Island submission process
[18:55] <Damsel> Just to review what's been said?
[18:55] <Lkeas> i've got 'em dams
[18:55] <Lkeas> >.>
[18:55] <Macha> Oooh! We need to have someone that farmed potatos in his past life be a god now :P
[18:55] <Travis> XD
[18:55] <Damsel> Great. ^^
[18:55] <Lkeas> but i'm not getting back into the habit!!
[18:55] <@Falerin> and let them know that the new sysem will run three ways at once
[18:55] <TSJustice> 'cus hell hath no fury like a woman's scorn
[18:55] <@Falerin> Epics/Main sessions
[18:55] <Aaron> can we roll stats with a mod through pm if something is happening in here?
[18:55] <@Falerin> Player Sessions
[18:55] <@Falerin> and Freeform abode
[18:55] * Damsel nods
[18:56] <Genoclysm> Riiight, Lkeas.
[18:56] <Genoclysm> You can't help it. you know you can't.
[18:56] <Aaron> *GM
[18:56] <Genoclysm> It calls to you.
[18:56] <@Falerin> We may need additional channels if a player is running a longer term scheduled setting/adventure
[18:56] <@Falerin> but that bridge would be crossed at adventure approval
[18:56] <@Falerin> Now then
[18:56] <KM2> Look! An unrecorded...thing!
[18:56] <TSJustice> Lets burn it later, then
[18:57] <Lkeas> is there anything else we need to cover? or are we wrapping it up?
[18:57] * Macha looks up from setting someting on fire. "Too late. I'm already torching stuff <.<"
[18:57] <Logs> Archive us, Lkeas! Archive us!
[18:57] <Lkeas> gah
[18:57] <@Falerin> I believe...
[18:57] <TSJustice> Hey, yeah!
[18:57] <TSJustice> I just love to be remembered in obscure archives
[18:57] <SessionMinutes> How could you abandon us Arkhivist
[18:57] <Liliana> hehe
[18:57] <TSJustice> I was the real Mothman, btw
[18:57] <SessionMinutes> What did we do to deserve your neglect
[18:57] <Hiro> haaaaaaaaaaaaayt
[18:58] * Hiro is writing the summarized version of Hiro's history ;_;
[18:58] <Lkeas> hmm... not much, besides keeping me away from my work and my husband XD
[18:58] * SessionMinutes cry pitifully
[18:58] * Fulcan snipes L'keas with Guns n' Roses.
[18:58] * TSJustice breaks down
[18:58] <KM2> That....kind of is a good reason, Lkeas.
[18:58] <Lkeas> exactly why i quit, KM2
[18:58] <Fulcan> But she can't stay away forever... one of us...
[18:58] <Fulcan> one of uss.....
[18:59] <@Falerin> She did not say not RP fulcans
[18:59] <Travis> The abode characters are okayed for NewHorizons, right?
[18:59] <KM2> But isn't the whole world going to asplode without an Arkivist?
[18:59] <@Falerin> she said not log everything and its brother
[18:59] * TSJustice invisoions Golem. Yesssss, my precccciousss
[18:59] <TSJustice> *invisions
[18:59] <Logs> We miss you!
[18:59] <Lkeas> aye, i may consider creating a new character for NH
[18:59] <Lkeas> but we'll see
[18:59] <Lkeas> work is heating up
[18:59] <Log's_Brother> We miss you too!
[18:59] <Aaron> XD
[18:59] * Fulcan snipes Geno.
[18:59] <KM2> That one was gold
[18:59] <TSJustice> Hehe
[19:00] <Lkeas> and my anniversary is in august ^_^
[19:00] *** Seraphiel has quit IRC: Exterminated: Shine brighter than the light! Fly with your wings, because all is lost in this land. Watch, watch how everything is painted red, not from blood, but from something much worse!
[19:00] <Fulcan> FOXIVERSARY.
[19:00] <TSJustice> Give 'em a version of 'ell!
[19:00] <Fulcan> ...
[19:00] <@Falerin> This concludes this meeting of insanity
[19:00] <Fulcan> Sure, what TSJ said. Who am I to insult anyone?
[19:00] <TSJustice> Or, y'know, something
[19:00] <@Falerin> Thanks for being doomed with us
[19:00] * Fulcan saluts, "Praise the moose."
[19:01] <@Falerin> Please come again
