Ah, was kinda waiting on Dark Rose to cast her vote.

But, for Clan Attribute, I vote for Prowess.

DarkRose15

Sorry if I am holding players up -_-

I guess I'll go clever.

Carl: Shh....do you hear that? That is the sound of forgiveness!
Paul: That's the sound of people drowning Carl!
Carl: That...is what forgiveness sounds like! Screaming then silence!

MadPanda

Yes, you were: yours was the tie breaker we've been waiting for.

Now please choose your desired Clan Virtue and a Holding.  Might as well do steps two and three at the same time, so that we can get going...and I've an idea to compress the next step as well. To wit, you each choose ONE Clan Aspect instead of trying to agree on three of them.

If I'm causing problems I'll leave the game. The last thing I want to do is be an issue. I came to this game to have fun and I'm sorry if I've made anyone upset. I thought this was all casual fun and I would have thought and responded faster if I'd known it was an issue :(

(sigh)

No, you are not causing a problem.  It is simply that your last post indicated that you did not like breaking ties...but did not give your vote for the type of Sith Lord you wanted, so we've been waiting on you to move on.  Now that we've moved on...here you are.  :-)  And you're welcome to remain.  But!  I would like to get the clan finished so that you can get on with character generation so that we can begin.

I know, generally I don't (tie breaking is always difficult). What can I do to help finish the clan, I still don't fully understand the game.

You've broken the tie: Clever Sith Lord it is.

Now you choose one of the six Virtues to be favored by your particular branch of the Sith: Beauty, Courage, Cunning, Prowess, Stength, or Wisdom.  We have one vote for Prowess already.

Also, choose a Holding that your group has access to.

The details are waaaaay back there in one of my earliest posts, under a Spoiler Tag.  I'll PM them if necessary.

No, it's not necessary. Do you need me to create this character right  now or do I have some time to think about it?

I think either Beauty or Cunning. Both would suit what I would want for my char. I did send you a message Mad but I hope you don't take it as a note. I just felt like I would rather talk to you alone for a bit because I like you and all the other players here but I feel like I'm becoming an annoyance and I don't want to hold things up again. Is there a specific time frame that you would like me to have things done by?

In reverse order:

We are not on a set schedule, but (to avoid being lost in the shuffle of this thing called life) I would like to start as soon as we can get through character generation.  That's your second question answered in a nutshell.

The first part of char-gen in Blood and Honor is creating the clan.  This will give you some of the information you will use to create your character, but we aren't quite there just yet, so describing it might muddy the waters a bit too much. For now, we're just building the clan...er, Sith Faction.

My vote is
Favored Virtue: Beauty
Holding: Sith Shrine

(not really sure what is the difference between shrine and meditation chamber though)

MadPanda

Prowess
Beauty/Cunning
Beauty

Hmmm.  DarkRose, I'm going to default your choice here to prevent a three-way deadlock.

So...Cunning Sith Lord, Faction favors Beauty.

Flaming, the difference is actually due to something in Blood and Honor that doesn't translate at all well.  Since the two have very different effects, I'm keeping them both around (just in case)!  In this case, a Sith Shrine is a ceremonial space, whereas a Meditation Chamber is private.  You could throw a party in the first, but not the second.  Also, the Meditation Chamber has a Sith Holocron in it.  :-)

I though something like that: I stay with the party chamber : )

Ah.  You're alive!  Good to see you back.  I'll add those in.   ;D

For holdings, I'm going to vote for a Meditation Chamber (since a Dance Hall [Geisha Hall] has already been nominated.)

(Side note: You can call the Gambling Den a Sabacc Den. Yes, I'm a bit of a Star Wars nerd. :P )

MadPanda

With all this, I think we'll definitely need at least one Spiritual Advisor...

Why I didn't think of Sabbac myself, I do not know.  Kind of like having to be reminded about mynocks.  :P

Choose a Holding.
Your vote was NOT overridden.  You gave me two options, one of which would not involve a three-way tie.

In the absence of smilies, it is very difficult to divine a jest from an accusation.  I'm not a mind-reader, ye ken.

Sith Lord: Cunning
Favored Virtue: Beauty
Holdings: Sith Shrine, Meditation Chamber, Geisha House-2

Now for the fun one...choosing aspects!  You each get to choose one for the Clan rather than having you all choose three and then going with the most popular choices, because otherwise we'll be at this until Labor Day (at least!)

As usual, the Clan gets the All Of Us/One Of Us aspect for free.

That is a conversation for a PM, please. This thread is for game construction.  :-)

Unfortunately, I'm having some trouble accessing the document so I can copypasta the Aspects stuff.  Hang on...

UPDATE: Sorry, gang, no dice.  I'll have to try later.  Bear with me, please--I'm on the in-laws' computer and the file is very much elsewhere.

Aspects list is up, finally.

I know what the copypasta says, but please just choose one apiece...and if we end up with four votes, I'll ditch the default aspect.  We have only one or two steps for the Clan left after this, so we can move onto char-gen proper soonish.
