Unfortunately, I won't be home this weekend - I'm taking my family off to do some whale watching.  If you guys want to go ahead with a hangout, I won't be offended.  Just give me the rundown of what you decide.

Quote from: tomcatAnyway, I need the template post for your character sheets - unless you want us to work off a PDF that we post to a common thread.
I thought it was worth moving this discussion here, to save us the trouble of bothering with PMs and make looking things up easier if we need to refer back.

Doug, do you mean the posts we've made in the PC Stat Blocks thread?  If so, Arbogast is here.

Yea, Tom has it right. I was talking about the Numenara game.

Hey guys,
From a Meta game perspective where do we want to guide this game?

I dont want to be the guy who is always changing characters and I dont know of it was because Bilbo's birthday just passed, but Bandy has been knocking on the door and wanting to come out. He was a fun character and once his shadow score is down has a lot more story left in him. I think with the passage of a little more time and his shire of the anduin is established he'll be ready to go off again.

Great galloping crapmonkeys, I got that pretty wrong!  I will work on a template over the next few days - I'm hoping to have one up for the beginning of the new week.  Though I'd be obliged if you didn't hold me to that.

I certainly wouldn't object to seeing Bandy return to the active duty roster.  Like you say, he's got a lot of story to tell. 

I think, by contrast, that I can see an end to Arbogast's character arc.  His concerns started off being those of a young man and an outsider.  Now, in the space of a pretty short time, all things considered, they've changed to those of a mature man who's very much plugged in to a community.  He's also thinking on a much broader scale than before, so his challenge is less about acceptance and more about influence - can he achieve sufficient respect that, when he says 'no seriously, guys, the forces of Dol Guldur are going to kerb-stomp us unless we do something about them', his people listen?  And can he keep his family together at the same time? 

In terms of overall story, I wouldn't mind seeing more of the conflict between the Beornings and the Viglundings (as you could probably predict from the fact that I lavished so much attention on that plot thread when I was running things).  I'm also waiting to see what comes of Caewin's slow degeneration in the East Bight.

I like Bandy - I would welcome his return.

Numenera update (cross-posted to the VV OOC thread): I'm still working on the character sheet template, but progress has been slow.  I want to get the game started, but it hasn't made it anywhere near the top of my 'to do' list yet.

Updating Arbogast's character sheet has completely munted the damn thing again.  I'll fix it up when I have time - in the meantime, please bear with the ugliness.

Hey guys - although I dearly miss our RPG profiler, I have been working on a solution for our character sheet needs.

Here is what I have come up with and we can keep these in the Dropbox share folder (either the current one or I can create a new one so we don't get items mixed up).

Let me know what you all think.

Thanks!
