Sandbox Gestalt (OOC)
Here's our IC thread.
Conditions Table
Here will go map.
I will reserve use of Blue, Yellow and Green for NPCs.
You should choose your color in OOC, and also give me all possible times when you'd be able to resolve combat by chat. If it turns out combat by chat will be impossible to organize, then, well, we'll do it old-fashioned wayLast edited by Dunkoro; 2013-04-02 at 05:04 AM.
"You mean, more than those who believe stories of demons
being summoned, and the ultimate war of good and evil,
and barons who bathe in blood of virgins?"
"Well, yes. Didn't quite buy that?"
"I don't believe in virgins."

Re: Sandbox Gestalt (OOC)
I call Sandy brown
Aslo, looking at the Conditions table, I should Mention that Resist 1, which is granted for every three points of the Armored Hide evolution counts as resistance toward all elements, as well as damage reduction/-
And... I'll go ahead and post a link to my sheet

Re: Sandbox Gestalt (OOC)
Team vs Meeting: I'd be cool with either, but since Silas is already in Saria's backstory perhaps the two of them could know one another before meeting the others?
As far as times are concerned, I'll probably be on around 5 to 9 PM, at GMT +1. Depending on how some things go I'll also be on around 3 to 5. Weekends will probably be a mixed bag, it's up in the air right now.
I'll go for purple.
Sheet link for reference and stuff.
EDIT: Also, I will remember to not take any Blue-voiced NPCs seriously.Last edited by PersonMan; 2013-04-02 at 10:34 AM.

Re: Sandbox Gestalt (OOC)
Francis here.
Right now it is Spring Break for me, so I'll be available pretty much from 9AM to 9PM PST, so whenever during that time is good for me this week only.
In the next few weeks, I'll be available from 3PM-9PM on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, 6PM-9PM on Tuesdays. Weekends will be sporadic since I have a bunch of events coming up, just ask me if you want to know if I'm available.
Francis will be the color Lime.

Re: Sandbox Gestalt (OOC)
Well, because I don't know all the cool color codes, I'll be using sienna for Silas and Sasha.
Looking at the Conditions sheet. . . I like it. I'm the kind of person that never forgets to pack a waterskin and rations because I've had too many games where that stuff was tracked. Aside, its funny that Sasha is superior to Silas in several ways. But that's her role.
Honestly, I have a similar summoner in another game here, and I didn't expect to get into both. It will be fun to explore the difference in personality and it will drive me to make sure I'm not essentially playing the same character.
I prefer a little knowing between the characters beforehand.
Availability for chat will be unreliable. Uh, after Thursday I'll probably be most available for chat between 7 and 10 EST on most nights, except Tuesdays and Thursdays. I check the boards fairly often but I don't normally have the time to sit down and resolve combat over a block of uninterrupted time. Married life and all of that. Plus my work schedule can swing anywhere from 9 am to 7 pm.

Re: Sandbox Gestalt (OOC)
Now for some rules on posting:
Anything that is not IC (I hope I don't have to explain what exactly is the separation) should be either in the OOC, or in spoilers in IC (second option reserved for rolls and some comments needing quick answer).
If you want to ask DM secret question (I don't know, maybe you'll be split or something later on), simply put in in a spoiler like that:
DM Only!
SpoilerHere you put some stuff that is ment for me only.
Don't look into spoilers which are not meant for you, like:
Some Guy Whose Name None Of Your Characters Has
SpoilerYou were supposed NOT to look here...
Look into spoilers detailed with specific skill check requiriments only if you make that check, like:
Perception: 3001
SpoilerReally? You can't control yourself not to peek into spoilers you shouldn't?
Perception: 9001
SpoilerNow you're really starting to make me angry.
I'll resolve combat in round blocks: everybody posts their action for the round, then I resolve all actions at the same time, and if anybody's action was pointless at the time hit turn came, I ask for new action, which is resolved as a first one in next round block, without moving anybody's initiative count anywhere.
If anybody has any comments regarding those rules, feel free to express them.
Also, First IC post is up."You mean, more than those who believe stories of demons
being summoned, and the ultimate war of good and evil,
and barons who bathe in blood of virgins?"
"Well, yes. Didn't quite buy that?"
"I don't believe in virgins."

Re: Sandbox Gestalt (OOC)
So combat will be resolved in posts? Or are we going to try chat combat?

Re: Sandbox Gestalt (OOC)
It seems to me we got these hours (put to GMT for ease of comparing):
8AM-9 PM
0-3 AM
5AM-5PM
4-8 PM
2PM-9PM (ME)
Even though it seems nice, we still have one person who couldn't work with us (and by a big margin), and for chat to work we have to ALL play at the same time.Last edited by Dunkoro; 2013-04-03 at 03:41 PM.

Re: Sandbox Gestalt (OOC)
Very funny. Why do we have only one post in the IC so far?

Re: Sandbox Gestalt (OOC)
Well, mine is underway.
A few questions:
1. How big is Noblefish?
2. Were we told someone named "town mayor" needs help, or did you just forget articles in there?
3. Would Saria be able to find at least a few people in the tavern interested in hearing her talk about her adventures? I assume so, but if not it'd change her mood, I think.

Re: Sandbox Gestalt (OOC)
Since you're also online, I'll just ask you rather than assuming either way: I was wondering how Silas would respond to an invitation from Saria to join her for a bout of drinking and bragging about their travels?

Re: Sandbox Gestalt (OOC)
*checks Silas' sheet*
Friendly and courageous? Yeah, he'd go along with a lady for a drink or three.

Re: Sandbox Gestalt (OOC)
Alright, cool. I'll add that to my intro then.
EDIT: Well, there we are. A bit shorter than I'd otherwise make it, since I'll be leaving for a few hours and wanted to get it up while you were on, but I think it's enough to reply to.
We may want to talk about how Saria and Silas generally interact, too...Care to start with your side, Ursus?Last edited by PersonMan; 2013-04-04 at 08:15 AM.

Re: Sandbox Gestalt (OOC)
1. Noblefish is a middle-sized town (a village in today's size standards). I'd say about a few hundreds of residents.
2. Erm... Town's mayor needs help. I don't really know what are you asking about.
3. Of course she would, tavern is favourite place of most people to listen to (in most cases made up) stories."You mean, more than those who believe stories of demons
being summoned, and the ultimate war of good and evil,
and barons who bathe in blood of virgins?"
"Well, yes. Didn't quite buy that?"

Re: Sandbox Gestalt (OOC)
I believe it was rather late when the first IC post came up last night, and today I've had a few other tasks that have needed to take priority. I'll need to rearrange some of my collection, but I'll try to get something up after i'm done with that.

Re: Sandbox Gestalt (OOC)
In a similar list format: Saria loves to drink, show off for everyone (but especially the handsome/cute ones) and talk about how great she is. She's also fond of "leaving to get some fresh air" and actually hanging around to listen to what people say about her when they think she's not there. Having no one around to beat her up and being able to slip into the shadows and hide, Saria doesn't really have the 'always respectful' thing going on.

Re: Sandbox Gestalt (OOC)
Ohh... Yeah, it should have been "the town's mayor"

Re: Sandbox Gestalt (OOC)
Ursus, if you want to feel free and take the reins here, I won't be able to post until tomorrow afternoon (this also applies for the SHS), so go ahead and assume Saria will follow Silas if they go to the warehouse.

OK, since I can see both deathkruzer and TheAmazingOP are online, I'd like you to join me HERE on chat-combat.
