Feedback:
— I don’t see anything wrong with the character’s sheet;
— However, I am a little concerned with how this character will fit in within the group.  Everyone who has already been accepted has provided me with characters whose sexualities are more subdued, but Libertine is almost comically oversexualized.
— As far as the history, I think that you overelaborate on the lady’s sexual conquests.

To be admitted, the lady doth need more cloth and much more subtlety.  She can still be a maneater, but you needn’t tell me.

[PhantomPistoleer]

I've mostly finished up my sheet, here's the draft so far. I should have a backstory in on Monday I've got a pretty busy weekend ahead.

Hi,

— Is Jilly’s sheet complete?  I don’t want to cramp your style if you’re still working on her.
— Let me know if you need any help completing her.

[Arcanist]

Thank you for the acceptance, much appreciated.

[PhantomPistoleer]

Thank you for the acceptance, much appreciated.

NP, just post!  :)

[HalfTime]

Turns out I have less free time than I thought, so cross me off the waiting list. I hope everyone has a fun time!

I hate to mess with things that are moving forward correctly, but if we have an application for another rogue who's better at traps, I then I definitely agree with the 'knife master' suggestion.  Alternately, I was working on an archaeologist build that could still be fun.  I will PM the details.

I always liked archeologists.  :)

You do you.  Players will be able to modify their characters to better suit the party once I’ve made my picks.

[Petrus02]

reworte character background. I'm still looking for a suitable picture though, this might take more than a day.

Bellantha Ravignon

Character Sheet

Bellanthas family has a proud martial history of being crusaders.  Wherever there was a just cause and evil to be vanquished, her ancestors took up the cause.  Her parents marched off to the Worldwound to combat the evil spawning there, however they decided that the quest would be too dangerous for their young daughter.  Bellantha was left in the care of an aunt and uncle in Kassen, ostensibly to await her parents triumphant return.  That was almost eight years ago. 

Bellantha has grown up in Kassen.  Her uncle and aunt run a store in the town and Bellantha is often found working there.  At an early age, Bell found that she was able to forge various weapons out of shadow, an ability that she is unable to explain, and she has spent a fair bit of time reading through whatever books she can find to try and determine how she is able to do this.  This ability has proven to be useful in her training.  Bellantha is dedicated to carrying on her family's martial legacy and believes that once she has mastered the fighting arts, she will be able to rejoin her parents.  Her practicing of late has suffered under a newfound increasing interest in her fellow students and thoughts of romance have proven to be distracting.

Backstory:

Jilly was born in Krassen to two influential members of the halfling population of Krassen, Fargo and Milla, her father and mother respectively. Her parents were simple farmers, giving Jilly a slight experience out in the fields. Though the young halfling did not follow this passion, choosing to fool around and make mischief with the other halfling children. At a young age she developed a talent for sneaking about and performing deft acts with her hands.

She practiced at the local market when her father went to go sell his produce. She got caught a few times, though she often used her charming guille to get off lightly. The halfling stuck to this path as she entered adolescance, getting in with the local rogueish characters and finding fun where she could in less than legal acts.

(Haven't found a good picture yet)

Grizzly,

I will go ahead and accept your character.

But:

— You need to find a picture for map purposes;
— You need to add background skills;
— Is there a reason why you don’t have three feats instead of two?

I like her backstory.  I think Jilly is the only non-human.

As for the character sheet:

— You should consider making Jilly an unchained rogue instead of a normal rogue;
— You must add your racial bonuses to saves and skills;
— You must complete the skills section;
— You must include your base save to reflex;
— You might want to reconsider spending a feat on “stealthy,” since your character is already so stealthy.  Feats are hard to come by when you are a rogue.

[Siereis]

Phantom, go ahead and just mark me off the interested list.  Thanks!

Picture found and added to the original post.

I forgot about the background skills.  I'll add them.

I took the Racial Trait Military Tradition that replaces the bonus feat from humans.

Anything else that you need from me?

"Libertine" Claire  Harrington(Abberant Bloodline Sorcerer Lvl 1)

Sex: Female

Sexuality:Bisexual submissive

Backstory and Personality:

Sheet: https://www.myth-weavers.com/sheet.html#id=1824848

Claire is the daughter of the local witch - who really is little more than a hermit living on the utmost edge of the village living of the land with her extensive knowledge of the wilds. The Villagers come to her mother in times of famine or when they are injured and do not want to visit a real healer for any reason, but otherwise shun her as if she'd carry a disease. No one really knows where Claire comes from, but rumor has it, that her mother made a pact with some alien creature from below, and Claire is the product of this unholy union. Claire herself is an especially unruly girl, sneaking out every single night. She frequently claims to have slept with all boys in town, but if you ask those one by one, they'll usually deny those claims. Plus, not even 3 month ago, the smith's son claimed to have taken her virginty(which was the hot topic of that week) This year she is turning 18, and becomes officially an adult - something she awaited eagerly as an opportunity to escape the boring village life.

Frankly speaking, Claire is bored to death with being confined to the village. Adventurous and curious by nature, the everyday village life offers little to explore. As a child, her dream was to become a great sage, a wizard without peers, but those where crushed early, after even the local hedgewizard refused to take her in for lack of talent. In order to distract herself for her misery, she turned to making up stories of things she'd like to experience herself - and claim those really happened to her. A few years later, namely on her 16.th birthday, she almost destroyed her mother's hut, injuring her mother gravely, when she conjured and unleashed a giant ball of acid inside the hut involuntarily while in an heated argument with her mother. She was immediately forbidden from practicing her newfound magics, but secretly trained herself outside the village every other night.

One night while she was practicing her magic again, she was surprised by a trio of local never-do-wells. It was near midnight, she was alone and tired, and they had more than just a few drinks too much. They still gave her a choice:

let them do her, and make them just another rumor out of many or

ignore them, and see them reveal her little secret about training her magic.


out of fear of being expelled, she reculantly agreed, letting them do whatever they wanted. On the very next night though, she snug out again, seeking the trio out. They were expecting her. Expecting her to enact revenge, maybe even trying to kill her. What they didn't expect was, that she'd undress immediately before them, begging them to do her again. This was what, maybe one week ago?

Kinks I'd like to include for her: exhibitionism, humiliation, groupsex, double penetration, bondage, being dominated,dominating others (regardless of gender) dubcon, rape

No problem, thanks for letting me know! :)

I would normally admit a character like this, Petrus --

But she doesn't thematically fit with everyone else's characters.  I asked you earlier to be a bit more subtle about your character's sexual appetites, and that was because everyone else submitted characters whose personalities didn't revolve around sex.  In my opinion, Libertine doesn't fit in with the party.  However--

This game now has four players.  Maybe they don't feel the same way that I do because, maybe, I'm 100% totally wrong.  Maybe Libertine does fit in, and I'm just not seeing it. 

What do the four accepted players say about this matter?

[Ixy]

What do the four accepted players say about this matter?

I like the idea of a character with a terrible reputation and maybe more experience, even darker appetites, being around the others' as they come of age, opening them up to a lot of the harsher side of sex.  But, as written, she definitely is a Libertine in that she wants it all already, and I'm guessing she's ready to be part of a Sade-level orgy at the drop of a hat

It could go either way.  I don't expect that it would work if this character's sexual adventures require the primary focus.  But if we can keep the quest moving forward, she could be a decent foil for other less-experienced characters.

I would suggest, however, that the actual depths of her experience not be quite so explicit.  The opening setting is a village, so the extent of her exploits could be MOSTLY rumor and scandal.  But if she "Lolita'ed" the blacksmith, and there were a few ruffians that repeatedly "assaulted" her, then these things would be something everyone knows about.

Here is the real qustion: I am guessing you'd like a lot of hard sex in the game, and we agreed so far that this game would have plenty of it.  Petrus, would you be happy with characters slowly discovering their sexual interests as a PART of the story, while the rest of the story is low-level adventuring, character development, and party-building?

[pdragon]

I mean, isn't one of the other characters literally a prostitute? It seems a bit weird to say a character would be too sexual all things considered, especially when one of the requirements for joining the game was to make a sexually open character. I don't see a problem with having a character who's obsessed with sex, especially since she's established to be an outcast and most of her encounters are meant to just be lies, so it's not like the other characters would be forced to cater to her, or that her bio retroactively makes the village more hedonistic as a whole. As someone playing one of the more "reserved" characters, I don't see his character conflicting in any way that would be problematic for the game itself.

[Arcanist]

But she doesn't thematically fit with everyone else's characters.  I asked you earlier to be a bit more subtle about your character's sexual appetites, and that was because everyone else submitted characters whose personalities didn't revolve around sex.  In my opinion, Libertine doesn't fit in with the party.  However--

My 2 cents:
1. The game is a “conventional” adventure and there may not be a lot of sexual components. (Then again perhaps not. I assume there is going to be some mature roleplay and interesting twists, and optional stuff that can happen among players.
2. PhantomPistoleer, as he says does normally accept a character such as this, but feels she does not fit, he is aware of the concerns and match of other players who may not necessarily want an overtly sexual character. Hence requested subtlety.
3. What is the intention of one being in the game, adventuring, character development and party building? Or something else? What is everyone’s preference? What is one’s rational? Personally, I would like a enjoyable game with a like minded group. Developing our characters throughout and progressing through the adventure. If anything happens between the characters, great. But perhaps in another thread so the story progresses. Sure, they may be ‘adult’ encounters during the adventure, but it is the adventure, if that makes sense.

Then again, I could be overthinking this. I am happy with the general consensus and would encourage everyone to share the one requirement I have. Have fun and enjoy the adventure.

Thanks PhatomPistoleer.

Alan

On another note, Kassen is a fairly small hamlet. I assume that a lot of us is going to know each other, either in passing or as friends and aquaintances.

Would Ria Templeborn (my character) have any previous relationships with any of you? I am open and would like a connection.

[Grizzly]

This game now has four players.  Maybe they don't feel the same way that I do because, maybe, I'm 100% totally wrong.  Maybe Libertine does fit in, and I'm just not seeing it. 

What do the four accepted players say about this matter?

I think that Libertine having a bit of a 'reputation', or having been the subject of certain erotic rumors would give the character an interesting dynamic with the rest of the group.  From what I've read, no one else has shown to have such kinks as Libertine, but that doesn't mean that they might not be influenced by her somewhere along the story.  There are also some non-sexual hints in the characters background, such as her being bored with the small town and having trouble controlling her magic, that I'm definitely getting an outcast vibe.

Would Ria Templeborn (my character) have any previous relationships with any of you? I am open and would like a connection.

I would imagine that Bellantha and Serana, both being Fighters, would know each other, maybe trained together.  I would love to establish some sort of relationship with Ria, if only for the roleplaying possibilities.  Maybe Ria gives amazing massages and Bellantha, after a tough day of training or work, would seek her out to get a relaxing massage?  Or maybe some awkward, on Bells part, experimentation?

[PhantomPistoleer]

Ah, democracy.

Petrus, we will go ahead and accept your character if you still wish to play.

Hamadryad, that puts me at the limit.  Buuuut I liked Jilly so much that she simply must come along.

Great job, everyone.  Please proceed to the OOC thread.

This game is now full.  If you wish to be considered as an alternate, please let me know in PM.  If a player vacates his or her position, I will notify alternates in a first come, first serve basis.

[PhantomPistoleer]

Feb. 25, 2019 Note:  I am looking for a single player to replace a player that disappeared.  Please review character creation details below. 

1.  The game thread is here:  https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=300584.0
2.  All of the characters are female, but there is no gender requirement.
3.  The lost character was a sorceress, but there is no requirement that your character be a sorcerer (though arcane support would be ideal).
