I'll wait until the next town. Gives me time to cobble together a proper character sheet.

Sounds good, the business in the forest shouldn't take to long either way.

Quickman · **Reply #52 on:** January 28, 2015, 04:22:54 AM

Before I make myself look like an idiot, is there any specific place in the town you're going to? What parties are there? Who's with who?

I'm thinking of dropping the Prof into an Inn or something. Or hell, his basement lab explodes and he stumbles out covered in soot and coughing up smoke. I really don't know, yet. He's going to be an alchemist, that's for sure.

Sakura Leic · **Reply #53 on:** January 28, 2015, 04:25:54 AM

Well except Wily everyone is together.

I recommend and inn or pub because I need an excuse for Calien to separate from the group temporarily for reasons.

Quickman · **Reply #54 on:** January 28, 2015, 04:27:14 AM

Pub it is! Time to get the Prof drunk.

Blue Valkyrie · **Reply #55 on:** January 28, 2015, 04:28:14 AM

Not sure the town even has a name yet, the way this was going to work was we kinda build Arcadia up as we go so everyone can get their back stories in. The only location we know we'll be heading to after that town is Skull Cove, the captured port city that belongs to White Beard.

Otherwise, theres not really any party relationships yet; everyone just met so theres still alot of character building to do before we get any sense of a status quo. As for the town, no reason you can't make stuff up for it as I said we don't really have a name yet either!

Quickman · **Reply #56 on:** January 28, 2015, 04:30:12 AM

I got it! His basement lab explodes and he stumbles to the pub covered in soot and coughing up smoke, where he talks about his latest experiment while knocking back ale.

What's with the Prof and things going boom?

Quickman · **Reply #58 on:** January 28, 2015, 04:32:47 AM

He has a death wish.

Blue Valkyrie · **Reply #59 on:** January 28, 2015, 04:34:28 AM

Going to add one thing to the Lore of Arcadia, there was an empire long long ago predating the current civilization around the time the world was created; as far as anyone can tell it just sort of vanished and if there any descendants they are either not willing to share the past or simply lost their history. The floating city would have been the capital, and other ruins do exist through the world.

Might be a good hook for treasure hunting characters or people with an interest in old technologies and magics. Kinda the Mana-Verse version of the Precursors in the WilyRP.

Well Calien does have a slight interest in science so that works, I mean he has taught Sakura what she knows about tinkering and she made a magitek sewing machine.

Just wait until you see what I have plan for Sakura and Asch in Wilypocalypse later...

Also if you're wondering why I haven't been updating a lot of other stuff I'm busy keeping up with school work.

Quickman · **Reply #61 on:** January 28, 2015, 04:39:00 AM

Prof like old technology. Prof also like creating technology. His initial redesign was very steampunk, so I'm going to stick with that angle, but add more magic and alchemy.

Blue Valkyrie · **Reply #62 on:** January 28, 2015, 04:47:50 AM

If the Prof likes old technology perhaps have him be an expert in the study of the Precursors and their civilization? Aya's connection to them might be a good reason to tag along?

Quickman · **Reply #63 on:** January 28, 2015, 04:49:21 AM

That'll work, as with his class, he'd have a decent scholar stat.

Blue Valkyrie · **Reply #64 on:** January 28, 2015, 04:51:42 AM

If you want I can PM you some of the commonly known stuff about the Precursors.

Quickman · **Reply #65 on:** January 28, 2015, 04:53:01 AM

That would be very helpful, thanks.

Man, I can't wait to get started!

Mr. Haxwell · **Reply #66 on:** January 28, 2015, 11:00:54 AM

A little recap on Toshi, the Lepor-elfen (a bunny elf to be precise) Kunoichi. She mains water style jutsu, but she also knows a bit of ice/snow style jutsu.
She's accompanied by two pokémon familiar spirits, which she can summon in traditionally.

Normally these spirits appear like regular pokémon spirits when unsummoned to Sakura and Calien, but when summoned they appear anthropomorphic, based on Toshi's bizarre dream.

One of them, a female Persian named Riyalie, with beastmaster abilities; she wields a broad axe that oddly resembles this. And tends to be very glompy around Toshi.

Next is a male Pidgeot named Grifter, who's a sniper. Little info is known on him, but I'll get to it when he's needed.

Fxeni · **Reply #67 on:** January 28, 2015, 11:35:12 AM

As should be obvious, Fxeni deals with Magitech quite a bit. Would probably be interested in old tech as well.

Dr. Wily II · **Reply #68 on:** January 28, 2015, 12:36:09 PM

Not much to say on my end really. Just the Dwarves part which was mentioned earlier. And that Albertus is a full-on practitioner of the forbidden arts of technology. No magitek, full-on technology.

Quickman · **Reply #69 on:** January 29, 2015, 12:18:11 AM

I was going to actually change the Prof's race, but eh, I like how he looks now. Originally, I was going to change it because I wasn't sure about what Sakura said regarding Pokemon. But, I got confirmation that they're an available race, so I'm sticking with it.

It also appears that TENK uses a few, so they're more than just a Familiar race.

Anywho, I'm going with the cleric idea. He's coming from a monastery. He also stutters, is meek, and is a runt. His CP is on the milder side for this one, so he has a prominent limp and some spasticity, but it's not as bad.

Now to catch up on the thread and await the town...

Sakura Leic · **Reply #70 on:** January 29, 2015, 12:29:09 AM

Actually I'm sure his Pokemon are just familiars. Don't know what's up with them.

I actually made some suggestions in the supplement thread to make him less Hypno like, I think you might like it, maybe.

Quickman · **Reply #71 on:** January 29, 2015, 12:40:49 AM

I'll go with baku for now. His redesign will take some time. We'll just say the "Hypno" name is just a title or prefix. Nickname stuff.

Sakura Leic · **Reply #72 on:** January 29, 2015, 12:50:03 AM

Hmm maybe a last name?

Quickman · **Reply #73 on:** January 29, 2015, 12:56:33 AM

My Pathfinder preset doesn't have a last name, just a title. Mogmerch the Alchemist of the Licktoad Tribe.

Sakura Leic · **Reply #74 on:** January 29, 2015, 01:01:10 AM

Mogmerch makes me think of the Moggle shopkeep from Kingdom Hearts.
