Okay. I've been relooking at this again and I might have settled on something for one character at least; A Seelie Fae. (Sorry its completely different from what I mentioned interest in before, haha, muse is so fickle x.x) Hoping to work on her sheet at get that sent in very soon! Most likely an initiate to begin with c:

That's okay. Being fickle suits a Seelie Fae. Initiates are sorely needed so that works great.

Hahaha, perfect! May have another character for the Sloth Demonhost slot too though, cause I think the role/character would be really interesting to include :p

EDIT: Also, I'd like to put a face claim down for my Fae as Vienna Kendall c:

I do agree a Sloth Demonhost would be interesting and fun.

I’m working on a greed demonhost should be done today. Looks like it’s going to be a great game!
“If all we have is this imagined empty canvas of endless possibility...this potential heaven...then let it be our haven. A place of marriage between two souls desperate to feel something beyond the cruel tedium of real life. If we truly be the masters who dream these dreams then let our innermost desires fuel the adventures we create and the love that we make here, let it all unfold endlessly or for only a brief moment in time but for as long as it breathes let it devour and I will forgive your boldness if you will be so good as to forgive me mine...” ~ Chantarelle

Hiya Peachy, my character is an initiate as well. If you want to work on any connections just let me know.

I am open to ideas from anyone. Hit me up if you'd like a peak at my character.

Oooooh, thank you! I saw her, yeah :D She looks awesome. I have both my girls down as Initiates so we'll definitely have to work something out once they're more fleshed out. Hopefully soon! I have started them both, haha.

Also, I'd like to put down another face claim for my Sloth Demonhost, if possible: Alyda Grace. Her expressions were too perfect to pass up.

Hey guys, we are still open for this game! Come check it out if  you are interested!

This looks very interesting and I like your posting policy because I'm not always able to post frequently.  I had in mind a wraith demonborn with the fc of Travis Fimmel.  I was thinking of him as an adept enforcer and bouncer for the club.  He would be extremely loyal and, if acceptable by other players, a bit over protective of those in the club's employ, feeding his beast with those customers or business associates who fall out of favor though he might become a bit of a pain for the Firm's cleaners.

Totoro

That makes a lot of sense although we could more use some at a member level rather than adept, overall. Over protective is fine it's more just characters who may dislike that, rather than players.

My cleaner has to eat people to be truly nourished, so that's not a pain ;)

Really interesting, I think I'll make a Grotesque. I'm wanting to make a Slasher type character similar to Jason Vorhees or Micheal Myers, I'm thinking that he should be a Gargoyle? Or a Killer Clown for a more jovial killer. Thoughts?

I debated a 'slasher' type of Grotesque but ultimately it felt a little horror movie-esque and less mythology focused. Granted the Killer Clown subtype already breaks that a bit.

I would say almost any kind of Grotesque could easily be a slasher. It depends how you define a Slasher.

To me they are usually typified by being near-unstoppable, wordless and single-minded killers with a signature weapon and a very clear cut purpose for their killing. That exact trope, in it's entirety, probably isn't going to be fun to write here. Because they are very quiet and the game, ultimately, focuses a lot on socialisation. There's already going to be a killer clown NPC so if you don't want to have another around I would maybe go another route.

It just depends how similar you want them to be to Jason/Freddy/Michael etc. because I would say the core issue there's more writing them in the scenarios in this game.

This all looks super rad, you guys have really done a huge job with the world building!

I've seen mention of a discord? Is that still up and running?

I'm going to get into the world and learn some things and then I'll try and write up a character submission! I'm thinking a Demonhost of Wrath with anger management issues.

Totoro

The discord is still up and running but only available after having at least one approved PC.

Character idea sounds good.

HannibalBarca

I've submitted a Cuban neo-arcanist sorcerer who's generally a seer with divinatory powers.  I wanted a mysterious character as far from a fighting type as possible.  I explained her detached confidence and hedonistic personality through her divining exactly when, where, and how she dies.  It's not something she's shared with anyone, but it does give her an easy arrogance, a fatalism, and a general lack of fear.  I can picture her reporting to the leadership, giving little tweaks here and there with her ability to adjust chance and luck, and generally acting as a sort of Norn--not exactly weaving the threads of fate, but restitching where possible.

I adore all of these neat new character concepts! 😮


Totoro

This game didn't get off to the start we were aiming for but I'm aiming to get it back on track and give it a more energised beginning. It seems like plenty of the original cast are still interested so we're looking for some more unique takes on modern monsters to join the firm and have some fun writing together. Please post here or contact the GM's if you're interested!
