Newbie Introduction by Tira on 2011-05-01 22:16:00 UTC Reply

Hi, I'm Tira, and I'm interested in joining the PPC. I found this place from a link on TVTropes, and it looks very cool. I'm fond of a large variety of series - Avatar: the Last Airbender and Doctor Who are the most recent, among several. I do have fanfic-writing experience, though it's rather limited and I have a bad habit of leaving things unfinished.

I do have a couple ideas for agents, but I'm not quite sure how well they'll work. I should probably litmus test them before I go into detail, but they're kind of characters I've created without a story, and one of them is heavily influenced by Genius: the Transgression. Would that be okay? Sorry if I'm getting ahead, but I'm really looking forward to the writing.

Thanks to everyone that bothered to read this, and sweet Arceus, let this actually work.

It's always good to see new faces, though I must admit that I'm a bit disconcerted to see that you're designing a Genius character since I'm also planning a character from that template.

Anyway, Welcome to the party! Have a silver spoon, a lemon gecko, and a star for steering tall ships by.

We've never met, but I get the feeling we're going to get along just fine. Whose your favorite A:TLA character?

Re: Welcome! by Tira on 2011-05-02 15:11:00 UTC Reply

I don't think I can really decide that... Toph, if I had to give an answer of the top of my head, but I pretty much love all of them. What about you?

Re: Welcome! by Incognito on 2011-05-02 22:36:00 UTC Reply

Haha, I'm in the same boat. All the characters are awesome, even the completely insane ones. Tied for first place are Toph, Sokka, and Iroh.

nWoD, eh? by DML on 2011-05-01 23:53:00 UTC Reply

Howdy, Tira!

You're big on nWoD, eh? Give us a shout over on IRC sometime, one of my agents is based off a world that's based off nWoD, I'd be interested in seeing what you've got in mind. I think there are a couple nWoD players here, I think Adamantine has mentioned Genius: The Transgression before, and I've also started working on an alternative game called Mercenary: The Asskicking.

Hi! I don't know if I'd say I'm that big on nWoD - I've hardly ever played that much - but I do love the settings. I'll have to check out IRC when I get the chance.

If you're going to play the actual game itself using the game system as it was meant to be used, my advice is to make sure that you really know and trust the rest of the guys you'll be playing with; The system made by White Wolf itself is too oversimplified, very easily abused and extremely easy to break, and it's also got a number of ideas (such as frenzy, disquiet, death rage, and the implementation of the karma meter) that 'look good on paper' and don't translate into gameplay very well.

I actually don't really like the settings themselves; many times often it's often too difficult for me to suspend disbelief, but I guess this varies for everyone.

Feel free to settle in. We love new people here. =) At least, I do, since I'm probably still new-ish myself. And is that a Pokemon reference I detect? Hoorah!
