OOC DISCUSSION MEME;



Save the Earth requires a good deal of thought to apply into. Because of this, it can't hurt to get some input into your ideas or to get some idea of how other players will feel about them.

This post is exactly for that. Think of it as a creativity workshop where there are no stupid questions, bad ideas can get weeded out and good ones can get fed properly. However, this space is for constructive criticism only. Please remain mindful of that.

How it Works:

Put forward your idea for a character you wish to apply. Point out the parts you like most, the holes you want help with, the parts where you can't seem to make up your mind either way. Consider what sort of goals you'd like to achieve in the game, why you think the character is a good fit and what sort of roles they'll be able to fulfil. Don't be afraid to let it all If you have an app in progress, you might want to link to it. Similarly, linking to a resource to let others know the preincarnated character better might be a good idea.

Then, discuss with others! Hopefully you'll be able to make your vision more complete and understand the game better. Potentially you could formulate future CR or even pre-game CR.

The Book of Night with Moon and To Visit the Queen are the books Arhu is in. The universe they're in are the books from the "So You Want to Be a Wizard" series, by Diane Duane. They include books like Young Wizards, Deep Wizardry, and the series-title book, So You Want to Be a Wizard. They're modern fantasy, with the "magic" being solidly based in physics, which I find cool, and with the goal of wizardry in general to slow down entropy, the heat-death of the universe, and to protect life.

I REALLY enjoy the two books Arhu is in, because they take place from the point of view of the cat wizards, who have a whole different culture, which is really made of awesome worldbuilding and fun stuff. I couldn't get into the others, but that may've been cuz at the time I was really into animals? XD
