Re: General OOC Chatter Thread

It's always time for GotG soundtrack!

[Athelstan]

I watched it yesterday again :8-):

The dance off and mini groot are the best parts.

[Lady Corrine Marsten]

It's always time for GotG soundtrack!

I agree, most of the tracks are in my general everyday playlist on my phone. Come &
Get Your Love is probably my favourite track. It just makes me really cheery.

I bawled my little heart out at the end, first because I was sad, then because I was overwhelmed with joy. Both of those poles were because of Groot.

Loved GotG. Going to see Age of Ultron this weekend.

That meme makes me twitch.

Age of Ultron is very good. Have fun!

[Athelstan]

I like DC more, but Batman is da shitz.

He has just one problem, Bruce Wayne is about to hang the cape officially.

Yeah, if either of you resorts to additional violent cruelty after the fight is won, Corrine will have something to say about it.

*stern look at a certain Monsieur Pyke*

She'll be saying it to the crossbow bolt riddled body of anybody who ignores a yield.

[Lady Corrine Marsten]

Fair enough!

[Loreia]

Don't fuck with the Code.

And now I am in the mood to put Guardians of the Galaxy on. Or at least the soundtrack.

Not sure if you've seen this. It's made of awesome.

That soundtrack makes anything twice as epic as it normally is :;

I hope they did Scarlet Witch justice. (Even if they can't use the name mutant. 'Age of miracles, huh.')

[Gwyneth Drakeson]

First, Age of Ultron is quite good, including Scarlet Witch.

Second...good god, people! Don't you sleep?!

[Dunstan Tullison]

Im off to see it tonight in a theater:)

Heard it's good with some minor flaws.

[Gwyneth Drakeson]

It's a rollicking good time.

I won't call it perfect, but that's because I'm incredibly hypercritical of my movies.

[Gwyneth Drakeson]

Dunstan, hope you're up for some intrigue.

I've been very reluctant to use these rules, but I need to get over that. (^_^)

[Dunstan Tullison]

Been waiting for it to tell you the truth:)

[Loreia]

First, Age of Ultron is quite good, including Scarlet Witch.

Second...good god, people! Don't you sleep?!

I have a...schedule.

[Dyana Marsten]

Well, yeah, unfortunately I didn't sleep nearly as much as I wish I had tonight. I almost didn't finish the essays.

[Baelon Drakeson]

Second...good god, people! Don't you sleep?!

Between the globe-spanning (or at least Atlantic-spanning) cast and people's various personal schedules I suspect there is at least one person at a time for close to 24hrs a day.

[Athelstan]

I'm in pacific time US.

I'm used to 6hrs sleep schedule work 12hrs+ damned military and I am retired lol >
<
and Masters homework/projects, plus 2 sick daughters doesn't let you sleep much.

[Gwyneth Drakeson]

Been waiting for it to tell you the truth:)

Yeah...I didn't think I'd be so reluctant, but it really trips my gamer alarms. So you will be the one I push past that with.

However, until this evening I am without my books! Bad planning on my part;
I should have tried to get this started last night. I do have access to my sheet though, so maybe we can slow step through it.

As I understand it, Initiative is a Status check, yes? Gwyn's disposition towards Dunstan is Amiable, I'd say... A case could be made for Friendly as well. I'm a little fuzzy on the dividing line between the two. She will be Persuasion (Charm)ing the heck out of him, with the Objective of raising his disposition towards her.

That all sound about right?

Initiative: Status test, Reputation bonus dice apply. In case of a tie, it's broken by Reputation dice first and then Status dice.
Influence: The standard "
attack"
action for intrigue. You use Persuasion/Deception and an appropriate specialty. If you win using Charm, then Dunstan's disposition is increased one step and you get +1D on the next intrigue with him.
Disposition: Should always be chosen to reflect the attitude you would reasonably have vs. your opponent. May be voluntarily raised or lowered during the intrigue, but there are some limitations. The differences between Amiable and Friendly are:

Amiable

Amiable characters see you in a positive light and consider you an acquaintance— but not necessarily a friend. Such characters are unlikely to put themselves at risk for you, but they are helpful if it benefits them. A character with an Amiable disposition may betray you if given a good reason. Amiable gives you DR ("
armor"
) 3, no modifier to Deception tests and +1 if you attempt a Persuasion test.

Friendly

A Friendly disposition suggests feelings of kinship and goodwill and is found in most siblings, long-time allies, and members of the same household. Friendly can also serve to define the relationship between knights bound to a common cause and the ties that bind the closest members of the Watch to each other and their commanders. Friendly characters are willing to do you favors and may take risks on your behalf. They won’t betray you, and that’s what counts most. Friendly gives you DR 2, -1 if you attempt Deception, and +3 if your attempt a Persuasion test.

Hope this helps!

[Gwyneth Drakeson]

Brilliant!

That DOES help.

HMMMM

Gwyn really IS kind of on the line! I think I'd tip her over into Friendly though, overall. With the caveat that it's not an entirely altruistic brand of Friendly.
