Ok my Hx is all done. Hottopic is Jet's favorite new friend in the maul. Cache is the old flame who causes him the most concern, making him toss and turn in his sleep. HIGHLIGHTS! My highest Hx is with Hottopic. Hot, honey, if I can call you …

WPTunes said: When you HERD CATS, roll +Cool. On a 10+, choose 3. On a 7-9, choose 1. * You totally don't come off as an asshole. * You get them all heading the same direction, for now. * You don't get distracted by the effort. * Take +1 forward to…

Thoughts on The Breeze: Niko said: The Breeze is somewhat resisted via a roll+Weird. How about something like: 10+ Resist, MC pick 2 7-9 Resist, MC pick 1 · You don't take -1 Forward (this stacks) · You don't take 1Harm AP · Another option I can'…

Like a Clive Barker novel, I have no lines or veils. If I have any reason to post anything NSFW I'll upload it to my own web server and just post a URL here.

Nice. There's a slight pop in volume when you punch in for the names list segment. I believe it's pronounced "cash". "Challenge" ... moi? :-) As far as Jet goes, I have been blessed with the creative cooperation of Niko and Paul, who effortless…

Hey Rich, I'm new to PBF so I'm curious: Will we start with the traditional follow-the-PCs-around method, or does PBF do better with a different approach?
-
I'm still missing Hx for Sweet N Sour.

By the way, the symbolism in Jet's shows is completely un-ironic, and half of it is taken out of context. That's because he taught himself to read (incompletely it seems), and he gets most of his knowledge of entertainment tropes from old magazines…
-
Q: How long has everybody been here? Jet: seems like 3-6 months.
-
I get the feeling "sweet" is not high on Mac's list of motivational adjectives :-)
-
When I said "books" I meant playbooks. Playstyle is not in the books, it's ephemera. Some groups play this stuff openly and some don't.
-
Yeah sometimes the books tell the players to keep secrets. However, whether or not we know this stuff about each other's characters (and police ourselves to draw a firm line between what we know and what our character knows) is largely a matter of …

Hey Alan, I'm drawing a blank on the phrase "Junta Wear". Can you explain or show me a picture of what that looks like?
-
Here? Ok. Let's see... Jet Black is Maestro of the AngelMetalCircus, a band of talented exhibitionists and sexual deviants who arrived several months ago and set up a ten-stage entertainment zone in the AMC cineplex. Jet's info page is here and …
-
Ready whenever you are, RR. Do we have any idea how many people live in the maul at any given time? I imagine there's a bunch of NPCs who are staked out in various shops, surviving in their own way, yes?
-
Yeah it must be especially trippy for you!
-
Hey Chris - I can tell from this map where the AMC is: http://www.labelscar.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/crestwood-court.gif I read a web page that said the cineplex was put in "nowhere near the food court". I'm wondering where the food court is…
-
I'll explain the reason I said that earlier. Rich was concerned about Maestro'Ds becoming the center of everything, and I want to avoid that scenario myself. I just figured the more property owners we get in here, the less likely that is to happen…
-
I know Rich has a little issue there, but I am playing a Maestro'D after all, so... I think since we're kinda all stuck in the maul most of the time anyway most of the drama will probably happen indoors, and that might obviate any of the immobility…
-
Damn straight she did. I mean, Boiardi has always been the go-to guy for lights and sound, and Jet still relies on him heavily for advice on acoustics and rigging, but there's no way he ever coulda rigged up a timed multidimensional array of flashi…
-
Based on something Paul said, I think maybe the Circus only recently came to town. Less than 6 months ago, maybe even 3. So we were out there in the last Calm. Our travel strategy included earbuds for those with battery-operated music devices, an…
-
Sorry Rich! That's what happens when GMs come to play! :-> ETA: However, I can make a case for our characters being pretty familiar with the symptoms of the breeze, even if they don't have it down to a science.
-
Blow a resistance roll and you take 1 or maybe more hits on the "breeze clock". Here's a first-pass at the clock: 1-3 distraction, inability to concentrate, irritation 4-6 minor twitching, trembling or fumbling 7-9 significant twitching, probably …
-
Well, "Open your brain" is a +Weird roll that "succeeds" in freakyhoohah. I think we're looking at something more nuanced, along the lines of... Roll +Weird to try and ride it, interpret it, or utilize it (this mirrors "open your brain"). Roll +H…

I'll take it!

Just checking out the mall directory, I noticed there's two theaters (not movie theaters), several production companies and a theatrical costume shop in there! Isn't that weird? Anyway, Jet is gonna have a field day romping through old playbills, …
-
I'd like to offer a suggestion for Alan. I think it would be good to have one more character who "owns" a significant location in the mall.
-
Paul, it's up to how see your character, ultimately. We could get minmaxxy here, but that affects the rest of your character too. In the game world Hottopic has 2 important functions as I see it: one is working with Jet on Circus stuff but the m…
-
Yeah, an although he's not a PC, in my backstory of the Coot I had an idea I liked: people who get trapped outside or wander off can get "blown by the breeze" in a semi-conscious or unconscious state, until they wash up somewhere else. Because they…
-
Maybe a compromise... I like what Chris just said: There is an outside world but it can be so dangerous that most people don't tempt fate by hanging out there for long. The breeze has more active periods and less active periods. Perhaps it's seas…
