OOC thread #1

[jcftao]

Thanks guys, things are going well. Should be settled in shortly.

[greyarea]

I'm going on vacation for a few days. Won't be posting and will be back next Tuesday.

Please NPC as necessary.

[merias]

Cool, have a great time!

[merias]

I updated the monsters encountered/treasure list. We haven't doled out XP or figured out some of the treausre value since you returned to the uppper-level caves after Dai's untimely demise, so if you ever make it back to civilization, I predict some level bumps.

[greyarea]

Don't we have to move before we can have a level bump?

Yes indeed I'll be offline for the next day or so, but I'd like to resume this game towards the end of this week. Hope everyone had a good Christmas!

[merias]

We seem to have lost kjc and jcftao...anyone seen them online lately?

[greyarea]

I have not seen either of them recently.

[kjc]

That kjc...rumor has it he has been out wandering the streets. Shaving hirstute orphans, and reading to the homeless. Sort of an odd duck, such a shame...he had such potential.
Man I'm bummed! I was so excited when I joined a Villains & Vigilantes game on these boards, and now it seems the game is D.O.A. I've been in the mood for some supers lately.

[merias]

You're back! Excellent, now we just need to find the other lost waif!

I haven't played V&V in ages. When Champions came out, V&V went to the wayside for my group.

[Miraje]

Ah, Champions, days of Glacier and Bishop and so many others. Sigh.

[kjc]

We also switched to CHAMPIONS (which started my love affair with the HERO SYSTEM), which lead me to JUSTICE INC. (which started my love affair with pulps). Mike showed up to my first pulp game (which lead me to -REDACTED- requiring petroleum jelly). Mike will introduce us to NCFOK, which uses the WORLD SYSTEM, which powers the upcoming supers game called WORLDS IN PERIL hehehe...

@Miraje: Bishop started in V&V, Glacier started in GOLDEN HEROES. Wasn't Glacier originally called Iceberg?

[greyarea]

I mainly recall Foxbat from Champions. I've never liked the Champions system -- way too crunchy for my tastes -- but it was the better system for supers at the time. My last glance at the HERO SYSTEM made me vurp and put it away.

Yeah Glacier was originally Iceberg, though I think he was only created in GH, never actually played. And yeah JI was a way better system for running pulp characters with a Cthulhu story line, because they actually survived more than one gaming session without dying or being driven (more) insane. The fact that Blandergast was insane to begin with may have helped

[kjc]

jcftao where art thou?
Has greyarea done something (more than usual) to offend you? ;p
Speak to me brother!

[merias]

He did just reply to a PM I sent him, he is scrounging for internet but says he'll be back soon.

[merias]

I'll get a map up for you guys shortly.

[greyarea]

Happy GM day, merias

Happy GM day, merias

Thanks! Right back atcha...I did not know today was GMs day. Excellent news! Also, this ought to be a federal holiday.
