Hello All

Postby Duskshroud on August 11th, 2009, 6:05 pm

I am very, very new to Mizahar and wanted to say hello to everyone.

I have done some roleplaying on NWN 1 and tabletop (Eberron, Shadowrun). I have never done a play-by-post before, but I hope to enjoy it. I am currently attemtping to read up some and flesh out a character.

Something with a sense of humor.

Welcome to Mizahar! Enjoy your stay. :)

I'm the one who wrote ghosts, so let me know if you have any doubts, questions, etc. I still have to write Spiritism, but basically it allows ghosts to have a symbiotic relationship with a medium (and overcome some of their limits such as not being able to advance in skill).

Welcome Darkshroud. I like your name. Feel free to ask any questions you might need to - there's usually people in chat. And we'll help you any way you might need. It's exciting to see someone just starting a pbp... folks either just really really love it or get hung up. But the truth is, its storytelling at its finest - and storytelling you can't predict because too many people are involved to predetermine the outcome.

I have some open adventures in Syliras going on that you'd be welcome to join - though there are a lot of other cities open and a lot of great Storytellers that will get you started, so feel free to be picky!

Hope to see your character on the boards!

Good old NWN1 ... I used to love that game. Never fell for NWN2 though

This is an easy transition from tabletops to play by posts. you're gonna love it here.

Welcome!

Tarot:

If you don't mind, would certain ghost specific skills: such as 'Possession' or 'Soulmist Projection' or 'Materialization' be appropriate

If not, do they have equivalents?

If neither, then thanks for the time.
Assuming that these can/should be added to the skill list, I'll write a small stub for my CS.

Darkshroud... I'm not Tarot, but maybe I can help. I know there's another PC walking around that has a ghost that we gave 'possession' too as an ability, so there's a precedent. To make that a PC ability, I see no reasons why we cant set up some limitations etc and boundaries to it and make it so. Any suggestions, limitations, etc you might have would be highly taken into consideration so don't be afraid to voice them!

What do you exactly mean by soulmist projection?

It's okay - I'll be adding lore entries for those skills later today: possession, materialization and soulmist projection (think poltergeist phenomena). I really like your character concept!

What do you exactly mean by soulmist projection?


Ability to physically move/interact with objects. It's relatively easy throw a pencil in a random direction. Very difficult to throw a horse or write a message legibly.

I would recommend that precision and relative weight be equal factors in difficulty.
