Hi there! I'm interested in making two characters at the moment.

I did have a question about the Fae - would a 'shaman' class for a Fae be logical? And what would an 'old age' for a Fae be considered? Do they age like humans, their appearance changing with age?

Love a lot of things about this game, btw!

Hi Kasper!

I think adding bits about how old species can live would be a good idea... :)

Fae would age like elves. They are in the same family group Elf/Drow/Nymph/Fae. They would mature younger, reach adulthood way before the elves, but from there it's pretty much the same. They age, but it's so slow that in the eyes of humans, they don't age/are immortal.

Shaman would make sense.

Agreed! Help gauge how old is 'old' haha. : )

And okay, thanks that is helpful! I'm working on my character skeletons now.

I have an idea for an interesting sub-plot...

Someone rich and powerful hasn't paid their Theives' Guild Subscription, and Nitzy (The Guild President pro-tem) feels they need to be encouraged to do so. In order to keep her hand in, she decides to carry out the burglary herself. Turns out the room she enters the house through is being slept in by [female character of your choice] and we have a nice little lesbian scene which can be totally N/C, dub-con, semi-con or even totally consensual.

Options for the room's occupant include (but are not limited to):

  • The lady of the house, who is single and is the one who hasn't paid the sub. Maybe she didn't pay in order to get Nitzy into her bed?
  • The wife of the master of the house, sleeping alone because she had a row with her husband.
  • The daughter, young and inexperience but very willing to learn
  • One of the servants, less than loyal, and eager to please the thief
  • Any other ideas you might have

    Anyone interested, PM me and we can set it up. Your character will need to be approved by Aysande first, obviously.

Good morning!

^_^

Was there still spots available for characters in this game? I am shamed to admit that I only learned of this game very recently, and I *really* like the concept of a fantasy sandbox game. I haven't played a good sword-and-sorcery high fantasy game in a loooooooooooooong time and I've been wanting to scratch that particular itch for a while now.

So, hello to all. :D

Would there be any room for a barbarian-type human male?
                        

arkhos

To my knowledge, SH will always be recruiting.

And to my knowledge, there is room for any class/race combo on the list. I don't think class/race combos are going to be locked or anything as far as I know.

So you should be good to go! But Ays will be around to answer for sure anytime now I bet.

Welcome aboard, whatever you end up making! :)

Oh, awesome, thank you!

Is there a character limit?

Oh, also, I totally forgot to ask this.

Is it preferred / necessary to already have connections with other characters?
                        

Cynadea

hey hey! Look who the cat dragged in!  ;)

You can have as many character as you can handle.

You can have a connection to other characters if you want, you can be just now reaching SafeHaven after a dangerous journey, or have lived there all your life. Safe Have is a fairly big town, not a place where everyone knows everyone else and their grandmother. :)

This is who dragged me in.

Quick question no.3 (or 4)

I've noticed there is a "general skill rating" that goes from basic to grand master.

Do the other skills that the character possess (those that are in the bullet list) go through the same ranking system?

Like ;

Playing cards (basic)
Online porn research (Grand Master)?

Grand Master Online Porn Research? Please, Grand Master - show us the way! :P

I think for class skills, it basically goes off of the overall skill level that you list earlier on the sheet.

I think the 'other skills' can be any random skill. I think the only thing Ays really wants to avoid are characters that are Grand Masters of EVERYTHING.

I don't really expect rating level for skills, but they are appreciated. The rest is really just for the class to give an idea of where they are at in their career progression.

Ok Aysande, thank you!

Ah, young Grasshopper... The Golden Rule of Online Porn Research is to never stop looking. Ever. For that sweet sweet poon you are looking for is ever yonder, beyond the next page and those pop-ups of Russian brides and penis enhancement products.

*waves!*

I’ve been eying this up for a while, and had a quick question about character creation: are multi-class characters allowed? I’ll qualify this by adding that it’s not for some cheesy powergaming tactic, just character concept  :-)

It was going to be an apothecary – in essence, part ranger and part wizard. Herb lore, crafting, and enchanting were going to be the main skills. It was a bit of an awkward fit for any single class, requiring either a ranger who could use enchantment or a wizard with a 'woodsman' aspect, so I figured there wouldn't be any harm in asking  ;)

I actually thought about that, but then I wasn’t sure whether the character concept - producing bottled potions and tinctures for sale - was a little too urbane for druids. That, and I didn’t know whether enchantment was exclusive to wizards.

That said, if a slightly atypical druid is okay by you, it's something I'd still have fun playing.

Cynadea

You can work on a character sheet, if I feel that it gets too half-druid/half-wizard, we'll find some compromise. :)

...Is that an Ontan I see?

*super-secret-Novari-handshake*

Dude, we even have a Ronova spy in there with us.

Some dude who goes around being called Pinky or something.
                        

Ontan

Not to be confused with the super-secret-Novari-fistbump. We save that for entirely different occasions... but that's a whole other thread, so I'll leave it there.

Giantmutantcrab

Indeed.

Here is a glimpse of that handshake.

Be warned... It does look like something from a frat house. Very exclusive.
