When do we start?
Jason Frost Comment by Jason Frost on August 20, 2009 at 11:39pm
Just finished book three a few minutes ago. Dead tired, but I couldn't sleep with a battle still raging.

Anyway, I think I read in book three that the vir only comes to those who are talented. But it's a parasite and eats away or infects the ability to use actual talent.

I didn't totally forget about this btw. I have a vague idea of the answers to those questions,however as previously mentioned I lent my books out and am waiting for their return. From what I noticed, I don't think Khali choses most of them directly, I remember Dorian mentioning some of the eathlings being born with the "Potential" so perhaps not everyone has the capacity to use them...or maybe it's suse them without being consumed?? I would assume it effects stats, charisma being the most obvious. I would nneed my books back to speculate more.

That's the basic idea of it, I'm trying to finish up the third book right now, so I haven't been thinking very much on this project. I'll get back on it asap, if anyone has ideas throw them out there, start a discussion or comment on them. Let's get some ideas rolling. =D

Essentially.
Jacob Armendariz Comment by Jacob Armendariz on August 19, 2009 at 4:13pm
Great idea.
So it's essentially a Midcyru version of D&D? (Only awsomer of course...D&D doesn't have wetboys or vir n_n)
Jason Frost Comment by Jason Frost on August 15, 2009 at 4:52am
True, thanks for the insight.
Now, from what's wirtten, does khali only choose those that have talent to begin with? So we'll have to work in elongated use of vir into this.
Do you think it effects stats? I guess it would diminish charisma for sure. Not many people see a man with a body full of black tattoos that wrigle and writh and think to themselves "This is a guy I'd like to know."
I doubt it would effect (affect? I'm not great with those two, now the their's, I'm a master of that!) intelligence, wisdom, strength or dexterity. I'll have to read more through book three to see.

I was also thinking of throwing in some kind of randomness into stat generation. I'm not sure how to do it though, maybe roll 2d10 + x for the trainable stats and 1d6 + x for the untrainable?

I saw that you don't have too much on the Vir... I was wondering. Since according to Dorian, Vir "eat holes in talent?"(bad usage of words, I lent my book out so I don't have the exact para) and is a completely seperate type of power, meister and vurdemeisters would most likely need a different power system than the wytches and wet boys wouldn't they? Handling the Vir also seems to cause something of an addiction, which would most likely affect the basic stats of the character when used...
Jason Frost Comment by Jason Frost on August 14, 2009 at 3:08am
I was hoping for something relatively new and original.
Some concepts are taken from other games, but other concepts (such as the use of talent, how to get it on character generation that's well rounded, how to use it, and how to level it up. etc. etc.) will probably have to end up being somewhat original.
So, I'd like to get some feedback on the ideas I've had so far, so we can make them our ideas instead of just mine. =3

Oh god... if this was made I would die of happy *_* would it be based around D&D systems or closer to others?
