I'm gonna try something with you guys--WoD Discussion/Signup
 

Hello, your friendly neighborhood Solnac here. I'm looking for volunteers for a World of Darkness roleplaying experience (from the White Wolf set of games, but with little or no stats involved) for this board room. If you've never played World of Darkness, it is from the White Wolf game company, and involves supernaturals dealing with mortals in a Gothic Punk world. Werewolves, Vampires, Mages, Wriaths (think high density ghosts), and Changelings (faeries) all exist in the world. Here's the specifics:

Location: Paris, France
Setting: Modern-Day Gothic-punk
Allowed: Any World of Darkness character that should be built around a BASIC, STARTING LEVEL template. You don't need to have hard and fast stats, but you will have to post whatever 'cool powerz' you have.
Rules:
1. Read and understand 'Allowed' above.
2. No sarcastic comments about other people's characters or the RP in general.
3. No godmodding. You're on the honesty policy here, but if I think you are, I'll bounce you so fast that your butt will spin.
4. Anyone who bothers to send a character sheet into me at solnac@myway.com for my persual will get a free powers dot of their choice (cannot exceed 3).
5. You're in the for the long haul.
6. I reserve the right to refuse to accept your character. You do not get stamped unless you recieve an ok from me. I also reserve the right to be God, if need be. (I hope not to use that right.)
7. If you reply below, I assume you've read 1-5 and the above and below and understand all of it.
8. Have fun.

--Basic Character Sheet--

Character Type (what are you: wraith, demon, changeling, Garou (werewolf), whatever. Include distinctions, such as clan, tribe/breed/auspice, whatever.):

--Special--
Would like another GM for this. Must have WoD experience. PM me if you're interested.

--UPDATE--
Dante is my Co/Asst GM/ST for this game. Things that just occured to me that are restricted:

1. NO, and I mean, no Status, Influence, or Fame backgrounds above 3.
2. The following groups are GM permission only: Technomancers, Black Spiral Dancers, weird and bizarre bloodlines, normal antagonists.
3. The following groups are just...NO: Red Talons (city, remember?), Nephandi, Marauders, NO Age background, and anything else Dante reminds me of.
4. I will watching and restricting certain fetishes and other magical items.
5. Lupuses must purchase the linguistics background and be able to blend in the city.
6. I reserve the right to ask questions and add to this list.

Thanks for your time,

Sol

Assuming your system is the same as the last one.

(The question marks used to be dots, but they changed for some reason)

Breed:
Lupus: You were born a wolf and raised in the wilds
among wolves. Until you were almost full-grown (two years
or so), you were unaware of your true nature as a werewolf.
You aren't as sophisticated as a homid, but you have stronger
faith in your instincts.

Auspice:
Ahroun: Full Moon�Warriors and protectors, they
fight like no other auspices and bring destruction to the
Wyrm wherever it dwells and breeds.

Tribe:
Get of Fenris: Dedicated to the Wyrm's utter destruction,
the Get are considered savage and bloodthirsty. This
tribe is primarily of Germanic and Scandinavian descent,
and Fenrir take great pride in their heritage.

IHMN, you're fine, although I'd like it if not every Garou player took Grand Klaives for their fetish. Yeah, I'm using the 'old' pre-new stuff rules for this folks, I don't have requiem or anything or the sort. You did sumbit a full sheet, so take another gift.

Thanks--Sol

I could take a Fang Dagger and some other fetish(s).

As for another gift, I don't know any other gifts. I just copy and pasted my guy from a WoD RP that almost started a long time ago.

You're fine. There's no need for you to do that, just something I was noting to do. Mrr...I'll give you the Falling Touch gift too.

This has been done before.

Are we restricted to Werewolves only, or are all supernaturals fair game?

If the latter, I may stick up my demon... he isn't quite done as that the info for demons wasn't all up yet.

Grr, it tooks so DAMN fucking LONG just to type out the chargen summary... I don't even want to think about the lores...

I'm mildy interested. I haven't got into an RP in a long time, and seeing a WoD RP in action could help me out in the future if I ever try again.

Course, I won't promise I'm in it for the long haul, but otherwise I'm interested.

1. Is Hunter a possible choice of starting character?
2. Does this WoD setting have a storyline?

Also, it isn't Cyberpunk unless it is futurastic. Thus, unless people run around with cybernetics and robots and other advanced technology, it's really just regular punk. Do you mean Cyberpunk or just Punk or perhaps Goth Punk (It is WoD, it's a valid question.)

If Hunter isn't possible, I will play a Demon if at all possible.

Didn't you say Hunters were basically fodder before?
