OOC Chatter: Even better add your character ideas.

Post by Pender Lumkiss »

Looking forward to this. Thinking about Garry With A G. A slob of an investigator, overweight, and ill tempered. Hates the fae folks and has an arm made of cold iron just for the ocassion he needs to punch one in their arrogant face.

Other Thought. Bella Bordo, a sultry vixen of an investigator. Sly, daring, and a quick wit round out this jewel of any man’s eye. More than one man with demonic proclivities has meet their demise at her silver tongue and or rapier.

Last thought: Kyle Dresden: Yup you got it. A poor relation to the actual larger than life superstar that never was Harry Dresden. This kid has the grit of his cousin Harry, but lacks the charm and knowledge of his superior. However, Kyle is eager, perhaps too eager to get out from under the shadow of Harry and makes poor life choices that leave him destitute and wanting for more action.

Trying to decide a bit more about the character than that they are a Red Court infected. I mean, I had this concept that he foiled (more or less by accident) a scheme by the Red Court to addict a number of influential people using the "Narcotic Saliva in the punch at a party" trick.

That implies the character was AT a party with influential people, though why is the question...

OK, concept thought: Someone who was like Freddy or Daphne from Scooby Doo, a rich kid who liked to investigate ghosts and monsters, thinking they were all fake. Then he thwarted the Red Court and they got even by infecting him, like they did Susan in "Grave Peril".

He can not bear to become a monster, so he resists and uses his new abilities to try to destroy the real monsters he now knows exists.

Concept sounds good Alan.

I worked up a possible Red Court Infected race in the Game Info section.

Will work on the character soon, will have to start with his human self, then convert him to infected, then add experience.

Thanks everyone,

If you have a minute to leave feedback and reflections here I would appreciate it.

1) What we're your impressions of SWADE?

2) How was the game overall?

Absolutely loved it! Both the game and SWADE.

As mentioned in hangout, we derped slightly by not drawing cards for the dramatic task due to failing the task on a failed roll on a club draw. However, we couldn't have possibly done worse on that task, so it wasn't a big deal.

We covered a lot of new changes and it was a very informative session.

I would also love if this went somewhere at some point :).

  • 2D6 EFFECT
    2 Catastrophe: Something goes terribly wrong. The GM must decide what, but some ideas are a new and permanent Minor Hindrance, the inability to use powers for several days, or an explosion of some sort. The backlash should be thematic if possible. If the hero tampers with dark forces for his abilities, for example, he might become corrupted or summon something sinister into the world. If he’s a weird scientist the device might explode for 3d6 damage in a Medium Blast Template, or he might develop a Quirk, Phobia, or other “madness.”

    3 Backfire: The power succeeds as with a raise but affects a different target with the worst possible results. A bolt hits a random friend, boost Trait increases an enemy’s skill or attribute, etc. If there’s no likely target, he’s Stunned instead. If the power has a Duration other than Instant, it lasts its full term and can only be negated by dispel (the caster can’t voluntarily end it herself).

    4–5 Short Circuit: The power fails but the Power Points allocated to it are spent, along with an additional 1d6 Power Points.

    6–8 Stunned: The caster is Stunned (see page 106). She subtracts 2 from arcane skill rolls for the rest of the encounter (the penalty remains –2 even if she gets this result again).

    9–10 Overload: The character’s synapses crackle and overload with power. He takes 2d6 damage plus the cost of the power in Power Points, including any Power Modifiers the player declared.

    11 Fatigue: The character suffers Fatigue.

    12 Overcharge: The power draws ambient energy from the air, automatically succeeding against the target with a raise and costing the caster no Power Points!

I would say it went pretty well overall, unfortunately I was only able to stay for half, since I had to work today, but at least my character was not useless.

Making a recommendation

Sense Magic: Gain the detect/conceal arcana power. The detect arcana function (only) may be used at-will, with no PP cost, as an action. (Note: If the character has Sense Magic but lacks Spell Casting, only the detect arcana function is available, and is activated with a Spirit roll.)

This comes from another setting but seems to apply here.

We already see how heavily everyone relies on it. In its basic no-modifier form, it would cost nothing.
