Indeed...
CountBezuhoff said: Interesting. So Solun would be where our story begins?
Against my expectations, yes. I was prepared to have people pick Saguenay or Avalon instead but, apparently, Arcadia won. You guys are about to step into a plot that started in RP about 5 years ago.
CountBezuhoff said: Also, should we submit our characters here as well?
Either here or in PM, up to you.

In my view, personality and background are the things that matter the most. Around them you can construct a suitable (or unsuitable if that's what you wish) set of skills (you could ask Lith for help with this as the 'magic', should you decide to dabble with it, system isn't your usual thing) and a fitting appearance. Setting an initial goal for your character might also be good, but it wouldn't be unusual if he/she doesn't have one and is instead going with the flow or is simply trying to survive, it's fine for goal to be found/changed/lost due to the development of the plot. Everything else I think is secondary and easy to come up with once you've begun.
That being said, I should finally choose a name for my character and send a properly formulated sheet to Lith.

It is as the Count said...
We can worry about the specifics later. Just think of a concept and we can deal with the rest as we go.
Later today I will post a couple of reference characters, just so you guys know what one looks like in the system.

Promises promises...
I know I said I would do this yesterday but RL got in the way and I only found time to do one of the sheets and by hand at that...
My apologies in advance to anyone brave enough to try and read it, I hope you don't get an aneurysm from my writing.

Geny said: Hmm... Is that based on Savage Worlds?
Nope, I was not familiar with it until 5 minutes ago. If anything, the system was inspired by WoD, borrowing a couple of concepts from Shadowrun (mostly how equipment is handled).
It's designed as a d10 game, and values for attributes and skills go from 1 to 5, under normal circumstances, with 2 being "average" and 5 being "olympic level". If you have a 6 or higher somewhere, there's some supernatural shenanigans going on.
Ok guys, let's see some characters!

I sent my character to Lith a long time ago, just didn't have much opportunity to post him here. Well, there was also some slacking off on my part, so you are right to tease.
Name: Dragan
Race: Human sapiens (male), native, around 30 years old;
Background: recently fired small time bureaucrat; [spend time with character to learn more]
Personality: intrigant, petty, greedy; coward when it comes to battle; [spend time with character to learn more]
Goal: [spend time with character to learn more];
Possessions: old horse, shabby clothes, full saddlebags, antique revolver in a worn-out holster portruding from under his cloak; [check out more of his stuff when he is sleeping]
Skills: run away (very quickly); expert ***-licking and good at establishing connections; zero fighting experience; adequate with combat knife (only because weapon proficiency is required by law); more or less accurate with his revolver; [undiscovered magic skill 1]; [undiscovered magic skill 2];
It's no fun to post everything there is to know about your character in the OOC, so I decided to have a bit of fun. The undisclosed data is the same as in the HCM I sent you, Lith. The magic (or 'attunement') he is yet to discover is more support than combat oriented.

How do we fill out the sheets? Do we decide the values for ourselves?

Wait, so this Corina character can walk almost as fast as a non-athlete can run, can sprint quicker than a gazelle, can swim four times quicker than Phelps and can jump three metres into the air? What happened to homo sapiens?
