1) SWD forever. Let Jon run his crazy shit show in the system it was meant for. I looove my character as is.

2) Convert over and keep running us until our ears bleed! You’ll never get rid of us because we are immortal!

3) End it big and then let’s start over with some new folks out of the new books and get knee deep in the new vampire plot point campaign! This option’s stretch goal includes a ride into the sunset and a Big Bang that your grandma will feel.
5
45%
4) I must go against the grain. I am tired of vampires. This group could steam roll through them like butter and hot knife time. I need more of a challenge. Less vampires and more Kreghor! Oh yeah I wonder what happened to the super Kreghor?

I am not curious about 4. we will kill him when we get around to it and he can wait until then.

But my vote is up.
  • 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!

New Characters. New Direction.
Architect will go off looking for his parents.

I voted option 4, for the simple reason that getting the Chaing-Ku to an acceptable state took months, which could mean a year or so before I could get a SWADE version accepted.

Stays in the background, (No he isn’t a front-line fighter, He is a thief.) Keeps Secrets. He is from Psyscape and will report back to them and also Elle the Owl at the Castle. He will gather extra funds, He is a thief but not from his team mates. Will gamble using his ability to read if the person is lying?

They must spend 2 Power Points to use it. Using exalted conceal arcana means the caster is −2 (or −4 with a raise) to be seen or found with clairvoyance or divination
Ghosting as an action no PP.

• Psychic awareness leads many to the ability to sense the feelings of others. This empathy allows your psionic to determine the general emotional state of another being within Smarts range by making an opposed Spirit check. On a raise, she can tell if another character is lying or being evasive in a conversation
• He always gets a strange tingling in the back of her neck when things are about to go all pear-shaped. She’s seen enough trouble to know when it’s coming. Your character has the Danger Sense Edge.
