  2. 2015-10-29 15:08:33 +[ATM] ErisMaenad [51]: You tried to be a good dad, despite getting your girlfriend pregnant as a teen. You married the girl and held her hand through the process, you put
  3. in the full time hours at one job and part time hours at another, making minimum wage at both, and came home to take care of the house, even though your partner was staying at home with the kids,
  4. because that was what you were
  5. 2015-10-29 15:08:38 +[ATM] supposed to do, right? You played with the kids and took them places, you went to all the effort, and in the end, just as you started making more money, she left yo
  6. u for somoeone else. You made the divorce as fair as you could, despite the wounded feelings and anger. You had an amicable deal, you gave her what you would've been giving her without the courts
  7. getting involved. Years have
  8. 2015-10-29 15:08:44 +[ATM] passed, and she just sued you for child support, including -back- child support. Without receipt or record of what you'd given her to date, she was able to take that amount all over again. Wages garnished to a barely sustainable level (damn that judge!) you reach out to your kid, only to hear your wife's words parroted back to you through an oblivious child's lips: deadbeat.
  9. 2015-10-29 15:08:51 ErisMaenad This has been used.
  10. 2015-10-29 15:09:36 ErisMaenad Or atleast I've seen this.
  11. 2015-10-29 15:09:49 ErisMaenad Shemetz help me generate my power, for Dolyn
  12. 2015-10-29 15:10:12 * ErisMaenad means for you to do it
  13. 2015-10-29 15:10:15 SEELE_01 This an NPC for Charlotte?
  14. 2015-10-29 15:10:22 Shemetz >for Dolyn

  17. 2015-10-29 15:11:00 Dolyn I wanted to try my hand at being the GM for a campaign, see where that goes.
  18. 2015-10-29 15:11:14 Shemetz "including -back- child support."
  19. 2015-10-29 15:11:15 ErisMaenad It's a test run
  20. 2015-10-29 15:11:16 Shemetz ??
  21. 2015-10-29 15:11:27 Shemetz PC for PC
  22. 2015-10-29 15:11:32 ErisMaenad :)
  23. 2015-10-29 15:11:43 Shemetz and I watched the south park episode about PC Principal an hour ago :P
  24. 2015-10-29 15:12:04 Shemetz also, personal computers. ahem
  25. 2015-10-29 15:12:09 ErisMaenad PCCC PRINNCIIIPALLL
  26. 2015-10-29 15:12:13 Shemetz This is a Thinker?
  27. 2015-10-29 15:12:16 ~Wildbow @ Shem - what's the confusion about?
  28. 2015-10-29 15:12:29 Olivebirdy Power: CAn just walk away with people's children :)
  29. 2015-10-29 15:12:31 Shemetz What's "back child support"?
  30. 2015-10-29 15:12:32 ErisMaenad Buckle up, Buckaroos.
  31. 2015-10-29 15:12:38 ~Wildbow Having to pay for all the years you weren't paying
  32. 2015-10-29 15:12:53 ~Wildbow Which he wasn't - according to the courts (since it was all in cash money)
  33. 2015-10-29 15:13:01 ~Wildbow (no paper trail)
  34. 2015-10-29 15:13:03 Shemetz Oh, wow. Didn't know that was a thing
  35. 2015-10-29 15:13:06 ErisMaenad Who is this?
  36. 2015-10-29 15:13:09 Shemetz Eris, this was used?
  37. 2015-10-29 15:13:57 Shemetz I can't see it in my logs
  38. 2015-10-29 15:14:03 ErisMaenad I've seen it before.
  39. 2015-10-29 15:14:12 ErisMaenad And I rarely go on the Triggerlist...
  40. 2015-10-29 15:14:50 &Somecrazyguy This is a legit problem trigger
  41. 2015-10-29 15:15:08 ~Wildbow I may have posted it in chat
  42. 2015-10-29 15:15:09 &Somecrazyguy Lesson: Always use checks with the memo 'Child Support'
  43. 2015-10-29 15:18:57 -- Vern|GM is now known as VereorNox
  44. 2015-10-29 15:19:04 ErisMaenad Hey, Vern.
  45. 2015-10-29 15:22:11 * ErisMaenad hits Shard with a stick
  46. 2015-10-29 15:24:29 Olivebirdy Armorface: Makes counterfeit money.
  47. 2015-10-29 15:26:15 Pink|Lensdoc You know, I am getting really sick of people messing with detroit npcs on there for lulz.
  48. 2015-10-29 15:26:41 ~Wildbow Anyway, focusing on the trigger
  49. 2015-10-29 15:26:41 ~Wildbow Anyway, focusing on the trigger
  50. 2015-10-29 15:26:43 ~Wildbow Themes?
  51. 2015-10-29 15:26:49 Shemetz Giving
  52. 2015-10-29 15:27:02 Shemetz Debt, maybe
  53. 2015-10-29 15:27:07 Rhetorical Master: Pied Piper
  54. 2015-10-29 15:27:09 Rhetorical Done
  55. 2015-10-29 15:27:35 &Teller|GM I thought Eris was set to be a Ward in Portland.
  56. 2015-10-29 15:27:36 Shemetz Caring for people, betrayal
  57. 2015-10-29 15:28:00 Dolyn That was her goal, yeah. Trigger does not seem to mesh with that.
  58. 2015-10-29 15:28:20 --> Ridtom ([email protected]) has joined #Weaverdice
  59. 2015-10-29 15:28:24 &Somecrazyguy Betrayal, Lies, lots of stress so sudden
  60. 2015-10-29 15:28:38 Ridtom Hi guys and gals
  61. 2015-10-29 15:28:39 &Somecrazyguy A thinker
  62. 2015-10-29 15:29:56 soulpelt| Portland? Who's running that?
  63. 2015-10-29 15:30:11 Dolyn I was planning on doing so
  64. 2015-10-29 15:30:21 &Somecrazyguy Maybe some sort of point system, gets X amount of points per day in order to ramp up aspects of the power. The power itself is somewhat varied, but always fo
  65. cuses on a single target. Points spent get you information of a specific type on the target; Things like weaknesses, past history, their actual power, associates, etc.
  66. 2015-10-29 15:30:22 -- VereorNox is now known as VernZzZ
  67. 2015-10-29 15:30:23 soulpelt| can I join?
  68. 2015-10-29 15:30:32 soulpelt| I have Tinker I'm dying to use
  69. 2015-10-29 15:30:38 ErisMaenad Oh, Spellywelt
  70. 2015-10-29 15:30:46 &Somecrazyguy I feel like my idea doesn't have enough of a twist yet
  71. 2015-10-29 15:30:51 &Somecrazyguy but it can be expanded to provide such
  72. 2015-10-29 15:31:19 &Somecrazyguy I like the idea of information of that specific type becoming infinitely more expensive
  73. 2015-10-29 15:31:20 Olivebirdy Dol, what time would you normally be running? An hour ago, two hours from now?
  74. 2015-10-29 15:31:26 &Somecrazyguy for the target inq uestion
  75. 2015-10-29 15:31:37 <-- lostavocado ([email protected]) has quit (Quit: http://www.kiwiirc.com/ - A hand crafted IRC client)
  76. 2015-10-29 15:31:41 &Somecrazyguy Thoughts?
  77. 2015-10-29 15:32:14 Dolyn Probably a couple hours from now.
  78. 2015-10-29 15:32:15 Olivebirdy I don't know.
  79. 2015-10-29 15:32:52 &Teller|GM I like the idea of spending points, but that seems like that /is/ the twist, rather than a base power.
  80. 2015-10-29 15:32:55 --> AceOfSpade ([email protected]) has joined #Weaverdice
  81. 2015-10-29 15:33:28 &Somecrazyguy The base power is information on a single target/person
  82. 2015-10-29 15:33:32 Olivebirdy Ah. Well, if you want to start Portland, I might be interested in staying up to play :)
  83. 2015-10-29 15:33:49 &Somecrazyguy of the type you want, but you can never get a full picture, and the more you try to get out the more of your power is wasted in it
  84. 2015-10-29 15:34:07 Shemetz I don't like it that much, SCG :/
  85. 2015-10-29 15:34:13 Shemetz Doesn't sound related enough
  86. 2015-10-29 15:34:14 &Somecrazyguy Okay. Why not?
  87. 2015-10-29 15:34:36 Shemetz I expected it to be giving or taking something from/to a person
  88. 2015-10-29 15:34:40 Pink|Lensdoc SCG you are in no fucking position to bitch >.>
  89. 2015-10-29 15:34:47 &Somecrazyguy Whoa Pink
  90. 2015-10-29 15:34:50 &Somecrazyguy Chillll
  91. 2015-10-29 15:34:56 Shemetz I do like that power, just don't see how it fits
  92. 2015-10-29 15:35:10 &Somecrazyguy Alright, what's your counterproposal?
  93. 2015-10-29 15:35:51 Dolyn I'm currently full on players, Olive, though I will keep you in mind if things go awry!
  94. 2015-10-29 15:35:53 &Somecrazyguy @Pink tone problem, feel free to PM me but keep things somewhat respectful. We're doing a power gen atm.
  95. 2015-10-29 15:36:18 Pink|Lensdoc You saw no problem with butting into an active game.
  96. 2015-10-29 15:36:57 Shemetz Thinker power that allows them to see how to undo the efforts made by others, maybe. Super-abstract and lame, though
  97. 2015-10-29 15:37:09 &Somecrazyguy I did it in (( )) notation, which is typically fine.
  98. 2015-10-29 15:37:14 &Teller|GM Still, power genning is ongoing Pink. PM would be best.
  99. 2015-10-29 15:37:15 &Somecrazyguy I'm not the only person to ever do this
  100. 2015-10-29 15:37:35 &Somecrazyguy I also only did it because I thought you hadn't seen Teller's ||
  101. 2015-10-29 15:37:45 &Somecrazyguy Since you had not used the '.
  102. 2015-10-29 15:37:53 &Somecrazyguy '...'* notation for writing
  103. 2015-10-29 15:38:25 &Teller|GM But, yes, I've got the session under control, Scraggles. Back to powergen?
  104. 2015-10-29 15:38:33 &Somecrazyguy Sure.
  105. 2015-10-29 15:38:53 Shemetz Uh. Thinker that steals the highest skill from people?
  106. 2015-10-29 15:38:57 &Somecrazyguy No.
  107. 2015-10-29 15:39:09 &Somecrazyguy That -really- doesn't fit, and has been done verbatim.
  108. 2015-10-29 15:39:36 ~Wildbow There's a minor changer element, imo
  109. 2015-10-29 15:40:18 &Somecrazyguy Maybe, but it -is- minor. Can be expressed with the Thinker power itself being a bit more versatile, maybe?
  110. 2015-10-29 15:41:06 &Somecrazyguy I really can't see a justification for this not being mainly a Thinker power, although I'm open to an argument for such.
  111. 2015-10-29 15:41:30 ~Wildbow I'm thinking thinker with a slight lean toward changer in execution
  112. 2015-10-29 15:42:24 ~Wildbow Elements of betrayal, injustice. Anger, frustration.
  113. 2015-10-29 15:43:11 Olivebirdy Loss of investment, emotional and actual
  114. 2015-10-29 15:43:26 Shemetz Yup
  115. 2015-10-29 15:43:27 ~Wildbow The character's shard gives them concepts for 'masks'. Wearing a mask gives a skillset, minor thinker power, and personality. Starts with 2 or so, can even
  116. tually collect more or develop more (luck may inform this).
  117. 2015-10-29 15:43:50 Olivebirdy Huh
  118. 2015-10-29 15:43:52 ~Wildbow He's a good person who is seen as a freak or scumbag
  119. 2015-10-29 15:44:28 Olivebirdy I like the power, but it is missing the sense of loss.
  120. 2015-10-29 15:44:31 Shemetz The masks actually change his personality, or just make it easier for him to act this way?
  121. 2015-10-29 15:44:32 ~Wildbow He dons a mask that lets him accomplish what he can't in normal life, but at the cost of being eerie to look at, given their abstractness.
  122. 2015-10-29 15:44:53 ~Wildbow It's a question of identity and failure.
  123. 2015-10-29 15:46:05 -- Empy|ZzZ is now known as Empy
  124. 2015-10-29 15:46:34 Shemetz Masks with distinct themes, or random/arbitrary masks?
  125. 2015-10-29 15:47:01 ~Wildbow Distinct themes
  126. 2015-10-29 15:47:37 ~Wildbow Scumbag Andy and Angry Andy, perhaps
  127. 2015-10-29 15:48:35 Shemetz Both personaities he never had? I like that.
  128. 2015-10-29 15:50:49 Olivebirdy Yeah.
  129. 2015-10-29 15:51:45 Shemetz Two questions, I got
  130. 2015-10-29 15:51:47 Olivebirdy Needs more detail, but that could be left to the GM. Regretful Andy could be a postcog
  131. 2015-10-29 15:51:47 ~Wildbow Perhaps each mask has rules tied to it
  132. 2015-10-29 15:51:54 Shemetz 1. the skillsets are in addition to his regular skills?
  133. 2015-10-29 15:52:05 ~Wildbow Replace altogether, I think
  134. 2015-10-29 15:52:08 Olivebirdy ^
  135. 2015-10-29 15:52:14 Shemetz 2. is the number of skill pips the same on both, and is it dependent on his natural Knowledge?
  136. 2015-10-29 15:53:00 ~Wildbow Yeah, probably
  137. 2015-10-29 15:54:25 Shemetz So the player will almost definitely choose to have 4 or 5 in Know
  138. 2015-10-29 15:54:33 Olivebirdy Somecrazyguy, Teller|GM , thoughts?
  139. 2015-10-29 15:54:52 Olivebirdy how could they have 5 in Know?
  140. 2015-10-29 15:54:53 ~Wildbow Mmm. Maybe not based on natural know
  141. 2015-10-29 15:55:04 ~Wildbow Didn't read that part
  142. 2015-10-29 15:55:09 ~Wildbow Scumbag Andy would be like subterfuge + sneak + street smarts, with x-ray vision, but cowardice & lecherousness.
  143. 2015-10-29 15:55:53 &Somecrazyguy Okay I really like this idea
  144.  
  145. 2015-10-29 15:55:09 ~Wildbow Scumbag Andy would be like subterfuge + sneak + street smarts, with x-ray vision, but cowardice & lecherousness.
  146. 2015-10-29 15:55:53 &Somecrazyguy Okay I really like this idea
  147. 2015-10-29 15:55:57 &Teller|GM Olive: I broadly like it, but I'm GMing and only partially paying attention to powergen.
  148. 2015-10-29 15:55:58 &Somecrazyguy The masks thing
  149. 2015-10-29 15:56:24 Shemetz Angry Andy has Threaten, Brawl, and...Command?
  150. 2015-10-29 15:56:25 ~Wildbow Angry Andy might be Brawl + Martial Arts + Withstand, can reroll twice/turn in combat as a short-range precog, but can't back down from a fight once he's in
  151. it, naturally angry and jerkass.
  152. 2015-10-29 15:56:52 Shemetz two rerolls per turn? what does that mean?
  153. 2015-10-29 15:56:59 ~Wildbow Roll attack, can reroll it.
  154. 2015-10-29 15:57:08 ~Wildbow If fail, can reroll again.
  155. 2015-10-29 15:57:13 Olivebirdy Regretful Andy can't move, but has postcog?
  156. 2015-10-29 15:57:14 Shemetz Does it also apply to defensive rolls?
  157. 2015-10-29 15:57:17 ~Wildbow But if he leaves it alone, can save those rolls for dodges or defenses.
  158. 2015-10-29 15:57:22 Shemetz ok, cool
  159. 2015-10-29 15:57:30 ~Wildbow I was thinking only 2 masks to start.
  160. 2015-10-29 15:57:48 Shemetz Yeah, these two sound pretty great
  161. 2015-10-29 15:58:02 Olivebirdy Condition to gain more masks...
  162. 2015-10-29 15:58:05 ~Wildbow I'd love it if luck roll pointed to a way to get more masks
  163. 2015-10-29 15:58:11 ~Wildbow Maybe roll luck before we move on?
  164. 2015-10-29 15:58:15 Olivebirdy yeah
  165. 2015-10-29 15:58:18 Shemetz Yup
  166. 2015-10-29 15:58:22 Shemetz ErisMaenad

  171. 2015-10-29 15:58:34 +[ATM] ErisMaenad [2/4, 2/4] [Power Flaw 77]: Reus - The character was supposed to get a physical power, but it didn?t take. ?Dead shard, sudden shift in physical condition
  172. , hard to say. ?Brute, changer, striker, mover or blaster. ?Probably? ?The group picks one: they develop a violent temper, bottomless appetite, dangerously accelerated metabolism, internal physiolo
  173. gy gradually changes to
  174. 2015-10-29 15:58:37 +[ATM] something alien, or they change physically, mutating. ?When rolling a 1 for Guts/Brawn/Athletic (pick one), or when temper flares up, the power sparks, kicking into
  175. life in uncontrolled and unpredictable ways.
  176. 2015-10-29 15:58:44 +[ATM] The drawback can be lost and the power can be salvaged, but not easily. ?After three serious life-or-death confrontations, the cape can start rolling after every con
  177. frontation. ?Cumulative 1% chance per 3 regular confrontations, 2 confrontations where they were evenly matched, and 1-3% per each confrontation they were outmatched, depending. ?If successful, the
  178. y gain another low to medium
  179. 2015-10-29 15:58:46 +[ATM] strength power, related to their primary power, but maintain the detrimental aspects of this flaw. ?The aforementioned changes must be seen and roleplayed for encoun
  180. ters to ?count?.
  181. 2015-10-29 15:58:48 +[ATM] [Power Flaw 34]: Power suffers, raw power is decreased. The power does less damage or has less raw effectiveness, a two-step decrease.
  182. 2015-10-29 15:58:52 Shemetz pfft
  183. 2015-10-29 15:58:53 +[ATM] There is a small benefit. Roll a d6: on a 1-5, efficiency, scope, awareness/accuracy, versatility or quality of life are improved by one step, respective to die res
  184. ults. On a 6, roll a power advantage, that advantage is only half as good as described, give or take.
  185. 2015-10-29 15:58:59 Shemetz Eris, roll 1d6
  186. 2015-10-29 15:59:12 ~Wildbow Wearing masks twists his own features?

  194. ult will be, by deciding the type of conflict and how they fight. The power adjusts parameters and particulars depending on how it is used (ie. close or long range, surprise attacks or face to fac
  195. e conflicts) and the type of
  196. 2015-10-29 15:59:51 +[ATM] conflicts the parahuman encounters. The power remains what it is and won't jump classifications that it didn't previously touch on; the outline of it simply changes
  197. . The power adjusts at the close of every conclusion, until the halfway point in the campaign or after the parahuman finds a 'groove' where the shard has no cause ot adjust. At this point, it lock
  198. s in, and the parahuman rolls a power
  199. 2015-10-29 15:59:52 +[ATM] perk.
  200. 2015-10-29 15:59:53 Shemetz Haha
  201. 2015-10-29 16:00:08 Shemetz I guess you got what you wanted, sort of
  202. 2015-10-29 16:01:48 Shemetz For first one, wearing masks twists own features sounds reasonable.
  203. 2015-10-29 16:02:13 ~Wildbow How about he can create new masks over time? Rolls are made in secret to determine how effective the mask is, using d100%
  204. 2015-10-29 16:02:40 Shemetz how effective? Should'nt they all be the same strength?
  205. 2015-10-29 16:02:44 ~Wildbow He figures them out by trial and error. Once he has four masks he wears regularly, it locks in.
  206. 2015-10-29 16:02:56 ~Wildbow Just throwing an idea out there
  207. 2015-10-29 16:03:14 ~Wildbow Ties into lower power.
  208. 2015-10-29 16:03:43 Shemetz How about he can create new masks relatively easily, but for that he has to participate in the actions the masks would have helped him in?
  209. 2015-10-29 16:03:59 ~Wildbow Meh
  210. 2015-10-29 16:04:07 ~Wildbow anyway, gonna shower & run errand
  211. 2015-10-29 16:04:08 ~Wildbow Have fun
  212. 2015-10-29 16:04:14 Shemetz See ya!
  213. 2015-10-29 16:04:32 ErisMaenad Bye Wilbur!
  214. 2015-10-29 16:06:00 Shemetz I like the "four masks and then power locks" part. Not sure about rolling for mask effectiveness.
  215. 2015-10-29 16:07:30 Dolyn I like the idea! It would make the cape very dynamic
  216. 2015-10-29 16:08:59 Shemetz Maybe the two extra masks are 'given' by the shard after every three successes?
  217. 2015-10-29 16:22:37 * ErisMaenad beats Shard with a stick
  218. 2015-10-29 16:22:59 Olivebirdy EM, why?

  229. 2015-10-29 16:54:54 Dolyn Not much. I'm trying to figure out how to summarize a power that Eris got
  230. 2015-10-29 16:57:10 Dolyn Shemetz, any thoughts on finalizing the power? Eris isn't here, but I can copy it for her later
  231. 2015-10-29 16:57:18 Shemetz Hmm
  232. 2015-10-29 16:57:26 Shemetz We need to figure out how masks are being made
  233. 2015-10-29 16:57:39 Shemetz and the number of pips, or how they're divided
  234. 2015-10-29 16:58:13 Shemetz I think 8 pips is good
  235. 2015-10-29 16:58:32 Shemetz no, actually, 7
  236. 2015-10-29 16:58:36 Shemetz 3,2,2
  237. 2015-10-29 16:58:40 Dolyn Remember that they'd have minor thinker powers as well
  238. 2015-10-29 16:59:11 Dolyn If we're going with Angry Andy and Scumbag Andy, which I like, how would they have gotten those in the first place?
  239. 2015-10-29 16:59:20 Dolyn Maybe it's something that happens as they enter conflict that they can't handle?
  240. 2015-10-29 16:59:34 Shemetz Uh, important question
  241. 2015-10-29 16:59:38 Shemetz can they give masks to others?
  242. 2015-10-29 16:59:56 Dolyn Well sure, but the masks would just look silly
  243. 2015-10-29 17:00:11 Shemetz and Dol - I'm thinking they got the first mask when they triggered, and the second one a bit afterwards
  244. 2015-10-29 17:00:26 Shemetz which is how the player will know howw to get more
  245. 2015-10-29 17:00:39 Dolyn So the masks are power produced, but not entirely actively
  246. 2015-10-29 17:00:56 Dolyn Just as a response to "If you were like this, the problem would be gone!"
  247. 2015-10-29 17:02:15 Dolyn Maybe they just morph a bit, but then can remove their face and change back once the conflict ends?
  248. 2015-10-29 17:03:42 Shemetz Yeah
  249. 2015-10-29 17:04:14 Shemetz I imagined it as "puts on mask, body changes a bit and powers/skills/personality change; remove mask, everything returns to normal"
  250. 2015-10-29 17:04:26 Dolyn That's how I imagine it works, yeah
  251. 2015-10-29 17:04:32 Shemetz Actually there should be some sort of cooldown between masks, probably
  252. 2015-10-29 17:04:40 &Somecrazyguy I think that having it stay with you for a bit after removing the mask makes more sense
  253. 2015-10-29 17:04:43 Dolyn And the first time they make a mask it just grows on them
  254. 2015-10-29 17:04:55 Shemetz Maybe it takes 5 minutes for a mask's efect to fade before being able to use another one
  255. 2015-10-29 17:05:05 Shemetz or the opposite - takes a mask 5 minutes to come up
  256. 2015-10-29 17:05:21 &Somecrazyguy overuse of the mask may cause you to gain permanent attitudes ((ala the child listening too much to his mother and now thinking daddy is a deadbeat)
  257. 2015-10-29 17:05:28 &Somecrazyguy It fits more, thematically.
  258. 2015-10-29 17:05:39 Shemetz instead of cooldown?
  259. 2015-10-29 17:06:04 AceOfSpade question, what happen if a mask is destroyed? can it be remade? I wasn't here for the whole powergen so I might have missed things like that
  260. 2015-10-29 17:06:23 Shemetz I'm thinking masks can't be destroyed or taken from the cape
  261. 2015-10-29 17:06:51 Shemetz not as armor, just like an integral part of him
  262. 2015-10-29 17:07:24 Dolyn Mask pocket space?
  263. 2015-10-29 17:07:25 AceOfSpade so they're not actual masks that he put on?
  264. 2015-10-29 17:07:58 Shemetz they're like virtual hologram projection masks that come out of thin air, maybe
  265. 2015-10-29 17:08:17 AceOfSpade okay
  266. 2015-10-29 17:10:11 Dolyn I'm fine with that
  267. 2015-10-29 17:12:41 -- Nonagon|Busy is now known as Nonagon
  268. 2015-10-29 17:13:55 Dolyn So, should they be able to actively work towards acquiring new masks?

  271. 2015-10-29 17:14:21 Shemetz Has two power-created Masks (not physical), which change the character while worn. First mask (scumbag) changes skillset to Subterfuge 3, Sneak 2, Street Smarts 2;
  272. grants vision through walls (can see through surfaces that aren't too thick); and causes the character to act cowardly and with a lack of interest. Second mask (angry) has 3 Brawl, 2 Threaten, 2 W
  273. ithstand; Can reroll twice per
  274. 2015-10-29 17:14:21 Shemetz round of combat (short-term precog); Can't back down from a fight, angry and selfish. While wearing the masks, body is twisted (like a caricature of what the mask r
  275. epresents). When rolling a 1 on Guts with a mask on, the mask's personality is even more in control for a round. Can acquire new masks (up to a total of 4, depends on GM)
  276. 2015-10-29 17:14:43 * Wildbow returns from shower & errand to find people are still on the same topic.
  277. 2015-10-29 17:14:49 AceOfSpade I think it's probably more of an involontary response
  278. 2015-10-29 17:15:12 Shemetz We didn't really have anything to talk about, The Bow
  279. 2015-10-29 17:15:35 Dolyn There was a break in the conversation for awhile
  280. 2015-10-29 17:15:59 Vulstag|tblt Sounds interesting
  281. 2015-10-29 17:19:01 Ridtom And Eris is gone for now
  282. 2015-10-29 17:19:10 &Somecrazyguy Masks can absolutely be destroyed
  283. 2015-10-29 17:19:27 ErisMaenad Back
  284. 2015-10-29 17:19:46 &Somecrazyguy Maybe they're crafted on the apparent qualities the person sees in someone on TV, or in a book, etc? What are they based on?
  285. 2015-10-29 17:19:52 Vulstag|tblt How do they go about getting new ones?
  286. 2015-10-29 17:20:35 * AceOfSpade was picturing stuff like greek tragedy mask
  287. 2015-10-29 17:20:37 Vulstag|tblt Like literally handmake them?
  288. 2015-10-29 17:21:57 Dolyn Maybe! Could be a Tinker sort of thing, where they're really terrific at making masks
  289. 2015-10-29 17:22:08 Dolyn Albeit creepy ones
  290. 2015-10-29 17:22:23 &Somecrazyguy Hrm
  291. 2015-10-29 17:22:29 &Somecrazyguy Maybe
  292. 2015-10-29 17:23:15 &Somecrazyguy Wildbae meant masks as a metaphor
  293. 2015-10-29 17:23:24 &Somecrazyguy ((As in, they're not physical))
  294. 2015-10-29 17:23:27 @Antioch What's going on here?
  295. 2015-10-29 17:23:41 &Somecrazyguy ((They're the powers psychological manifestation of the desire to become something else))
  296. 2015-10-29 17:24:19 Dolyn Oh, I thought he meant literal masks, since wearing them was mentioned. And we're genning a power, Anti!
  297. 2015-10-29 17:24:22 &Somecrazyguy So in conclusion, masks are crafted via focus and time spent mentally crafting them, can not be physically destroyed?
  298. 2015-10-29 17:24:51 Shemetz Yeah
  299. 2015-10-29 17:24:53 &Somecrazyguy To an outsider, the man in question looks like whatever he's emulating via mask
  300. 2015-10-29 17:24:56 Dolyn Works for me
  301. 2015-10-29 17:24:59 Vulstag|tblt Doesn't sound destroys let
  302. 2015-10-29 17:25:00 &Somecrazyguy But it's not real
  303. 2015-10-29 17:25:01 Shemetz "crafted via focus" needs more crunch
  304. 2015-10-29 17:25:12 &Somecrazyguy Basically tulpa-shaping
  305. 2015-10-29 17:25:26 @Antioch Looks like a cool power.
  306. 2015-10-29 17:25:44 &Somecrazyguy As in, meditate, think about the features you want for a while
  307. 2015-10-29 17:25:55 &Somecrazyguy the time this takes increases exponentially as you add more masks
  308. 2015-10-29 17:25:57 Shemetz Maybe...needs a full stress-free week, and then to succeed in some roll?
  309. 2015-10-29 17:26:09 &Somecrazyguy For the third mask, yeah.
  310. 2015-10-29 17:26:11 Shemetz yeah, actually more time for each additional mask makes sense
  311. 2015-10-29 17:26:21 Shemetz third is week, fourth is month?
  312. 2015-10-29 17:26:26 Empy Seems like conflict would make more sense for unlocking masks right?
  313. 2015-10-29 17:26:35 &Somecrazyguy First mask takes a day, second mask is 3 days, third is week, fourth is month, fifth is a year.
  314. 2015-10-29 17:26:41 &Somecrazyguy er
  315. 2015-10-29 17:26:53 &Somecrazyguy Can destroy a mask to free up a slot
  316. 2015-10-29 17:27:00 &Somecrazyguy What do you guys think?
  317. 2015-10-29 17:27:01 Shemetz First one was actually free, but sure
  318. 2015-10-29 17:27:14 &Somecrazyguy Alright, change first to free then.
  319. 2015-10-29 17:27:14 Shemetz They start the campaign with 2 masks in any case
  320. 2015-10-29 17:27:36 &Somecrazyguy I think starting with one makes more sense, but I'm willing to budge.
  321. 2015-10-29 17:27:45 Dolyn I like the idea, Scrags, though Empy makes an excellent point about conflict
  322. 2015-10-29 17:27:46 ~Wildbow I don't think you should have too many masks available.
  323. 2015-10-29 17:27:48 ~Wildbow Use what you got
  324. 2015-10-29 17:28:16 &Somecrazyguy Ayy.
  325. 2015-10-29 17:28:16 Shemetz It should be mentioned that the character itself also has their own skillset
  326. 2015-10-29 17:28:22 Dolyn So once its there, it is there for good?
  327. 2015-10-29 17:28:36 Shemetz I'm in favor of that, Dol
  328. 2015-10-29 17:28:44 &Somecrazyguy Conflict would help for gaining access to more characteristics/bonuses for mask use maybe
  329. 2015-10-29 17:28:46 ~Wildbow If you lose a mask, you have to rebuild that mask, specifically
  330. 2015-10-29 17:29:00 Shemetz How would masks be lost, WB?
  331. 2015-10-29 17:29:03 ~Wildbow No. No leveling up masks. At most, you get a few more masks.
  332. 2015-10-29 17:29:06 ~Wildbow Destruction. Sundering.
  333. 2015-10-29 17:29:08 &Somecrazyguy Hrm.
  334. 2015-10-29 17:29:10 ~Wildbow Being stolen
  335. 2015-10-29 17:29:20 &Somecrazyguy Makes sense I suppose, since he's literally stuck with kid + debt
  336. 2015-10-29 17:29:31 Shemetz oh, so physical masks
  337. 2015-10-29 17:29:37 &Somecrazyguy Thematically, makes the power -his-
  338. 2015-10-29 17:29:38 Vulstag|tblt Masks can emulate minor powers and skills of supers they kill or knockout and do a face mask thing? I'd wut the trigger is
  339. 2015-10-29 17:29:52 &Somecrazyguy oh god
  340. 2015-10-29 17:29:55 &Somecrazyguy vulstag no
  341. 2015-10-29 17:30:00 Shemetz No, Vag, no
  342. 2015-10-29 17:30:08 Vulstag|tblt Huehuehe
  343. 2015-10-29 17:30:18 &Somecrazyguy Masks are destroyed by taking too much damage in mask form
  344. 2015-10-29 17:30:23 &Somecrazyguy Masks are still metaphysical
  345. 2015-10-29 17:30:34 Shemetz define "too much damage"?
  346. 2015-10-29 17:30:35 &Somecrazyguy Can we end with that please? It's taking forever
  347. 2015-10-29 17:30:52 &Somecrazyguy Dying in mask form you lose the mask and revert to normal
  348. 2015-10-29 17:30:56 &Somecrazyguy It's basically a breaker form
  349. 2015-10-29 17:31:19 * Somecrazyguy is getting tired of this gen, thought it would be over hours ago
  350. 2015-10-29 17:31:22 Dolyn Sure, works for me
  351. 2015-10-29 17:31:37 ~Wildbow You're complicating it. Physical mask. Put it on, gain a set of skills, minor power, personality change.
  352. 2015-10-29 17:31:58 ~Wildbow Can craft/recraft new ones, up to a max of 4 or 5.
  353. 2015-10-29 17:33:54 Dolyn Sounds perfect.
  354. 2015-10-29 17:33:59 &Somecrazyguy /end
  355. 2015-10-29 17:34:05 &Somecrazyguy No more questions
