Posts from Knights of Tezoth

Hmm... And in the "history of expeditions," are there cases of being killed off between making a character and the start of the game?🤔🤣

Cards of fate.

If only ordinary beliefs could also affect something..

Church of the Artery: am I some kind of joke to you?!

Actually, I fear that your slave will slit both our throats at night while we're doing the General quest.

My character died right after I drew the death card, even before the game began.

But you draw cards before creating characters, I think...

Well, Revan drew it right away, so as not to bother counting, knowing how much Sky loves ending the game prematurely..

Milord Lester Vargas, Knight of Dawnsteel from Canamia, servant of Deus Mariarnelia.

That's what some girls are called around here. Though these days it's trendy to pick less common names for children.

I'll call him Ambrose, like the guy from Clive Barker's Undying.

I thought I'd finish everyone by ten, but that was a mistaken expectation. Time to sleep.

He's apparently moving on through his un-life with Tann. He can't have any warm feelings toward Ikusa, let alone toward the Evil existence, and for a random death in a cataclysm after Karin, Barsina, the atomic bomb, and the obelisks, he has too much tenacity and overcomer spirit.
The kid actually had two personal main quests: to take Barsina and to have (figuratively (not only)) Felicia, and to finally decide which father figure suits him best: Kingaluddy, Kir, or Tann. It was pointless to try writing an epilogue while it was unclear how many percent of the first one was completed, but since I've taken on a writer, maybe I'll scribble something during this campaign.

Last time we drew after creation.

44 defense from the torso; 36 crit from the hand

Actually, just to clarify, everything that could be was intended to be heavy, since I took the skill... I specifically googled what's available there and added notes where it might not have been obvious.

helmet

gloves

But if it's that unbalanced, then fine. I suppose the examples on the equipment page are described more conditionally than as a template.

Could have been in the same region as hot chicks. But now I'm in the same region as a fat guy and a shaggy-haired guy. The roleplay of myself started even before the expedition began 😔

Well, Lester isn't just fat, but also shaggy-haired. And also, judging by the numbers, he's actually the hot one.
