Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I editted my character a bit, I don't mind the prologue I like the difference of it. It gives the characters more history together. But I also wouldn't mind if the characters started outside of the city gates... Whatever you think is best.

I think of the game more like this... You are taking a completely blank character... And developing them as the story goes along...

As your character continues through life outside of Bethany they develop their personality, they gain a history, they learn about emotions, life...

It is actually a good writing challenge. Completely developing a character as the story moves... I personally like the idea.

Hey, Flute. That Eowyn quote is true, but I doubt that's the point. The authorities carry guns, they have permission. We don't and can still be shot dead. I think that's what Sylvie means. Only the authorities carryweapons in Bethany, unless you can get ahold of them.

Am I right, Sylvie?

I don't why they would yell at you unless you try and create personalities for them. Then again it's been a long time since I've RPed here. But I should still think you need a beginning post to get started.

You are correct Light, but actually there are no guards. There's no need. Just big walls surrounding the city.

Point being, we are leaving the city. What's outside? If this is a Middle-Earth Mideival type world, even if they don't need weapons inside the city, will they outside?

Hahaa. Put into your character profile what his likes and dislikes are if you want, including what would be your weapon preferences. When they restore your...emotions?...they'll set you up with what they see fit. Meaning, whatever you have on your profile.

In game terms, this simply means that sooner or later your character will have everything you initially wanted for him (within reason ), he just won't start the game with everything. We'll try to stab through the prologue as quickly as we can, but I feel that its necessary. It will push the characters all closer together in a way.

Here's my character:
Roderick Truman

This campaign's starting conditions worry me, since it seems the only thing to drive the story is the setting; hopefully the setting will be able to generate plot points. I do have an ace up my sleeve, though - if things get too bogged down, I can always start power playing.

Hey Brilliand, long time no see. The character is really good. Glad to have you aboard!

And you make a good point. We'll see how it runs...it's been a while, but I think that I've got enough running for it because I've still been writing. So we'll see.
