				I want to open this thread up on Saturday.&nbsp; Everyone whose on now... up until I actually set up our threads... will get the free advancement.&nbsp; This is everyone included so far... except Boering who will post her Ghoul.&nbsp; This seems like a nice group... still cozy but with some variety.&nbsp; We will see if anyone else jumps on before things take off.<br><br>Oh, new recent adjustment to our school.&nbsp; This is a typical 'Catholic Girls Private School' and all the tropes involved.&nbsp; So this means mandatory mass, the uniforms, the ruler weilding nuns, everything.&nbsp; This also means angel and Christian statuary... a lot of gothic crosses for my Natassja to pose beside.&nbsp; So use the enviroment for the fun to be had with this kind of setting to be had.<br><br>Im thinking<strong> St Jude's School for Gifted Girls</strong>... or something. St. Jude was the saint of lost causes.&nbsp; Just a private... in joke.&nbsp; The illuminati group has a lot of control over who is in... a lot of rich children of employees and such.&nbsp; They kick in a lot of doors for them... which is why being in this school is so wonderful for a woman's chances in college... especially very limiting colleges which need a lot of money to attend.

				Lets wait before closing out your backstory.&nbsp; Lets let Boering weigh in on what she might want to have strings on.<br><br>In fact, I think you will have to chose Harmony for one or the other string slot.&nbsp; To help mix it up with the rest of the group.

				I recommend making a post keeping track of the Strings... Also possibly noting in a tab as post headers what Strings we have as we post, so we can keep track of gaining and spending them.<br><br>Harmony does currently share a Backstory with Cassandra, as she is the one that Cassandra has watched sleeping. Which is interesting as that means that Cassandra will know of Harmony's biggest secret, as she's not going to be sharing with anyone she wasn't born as her current gender.

				That's what I like about Monsterhearts, how the game works to present content like that (the Turn Someone On move decides what your character finds attractive, rather than yourself) and the game is partially about what sexual preferences your character finds themselves growing into.

				Good point, wander.&nbsp; These versions of your character on the OOC sheet will the official glanced over version.&nbsp; Keep all strings listed there under your character.&nbsp; When done we should all have six names with string tallies listed by them.&nbsp; Also hatchet mark experience rewarded.&nbsp; At the fifth Experience point you spend it as an advancement and then begin gathering experience again.<br><br><br><br>A quick summary of character and basics of Monsterhearts.<br><br>Monsterhearts is a template based game.&nbsp; Closer to a story card game than anything we have probably played before.&nbsp; So imagine it as a 'card game'.&nbsp; Open the booklet... read it and pass out the skins which everyone goes through and picks what they want.&nbsp; Then the booklet is filled in with a few bubbles and circles and you have a character.&nbsp; So almost everything played or described in character is 'freestyled'... as long as the story kind of conforms to the very loose mechanics of Monsterhearts.<br><br><div align="center">Stats<br>Hot means fucking gorgeous, alluring, exciting, smokin’,<br>someone you can’t stop thinking about, magnetic.<br><br>Cold means stone-cold, calculating, collected,<br>unwavering, frigid, able to be cruel and merciless, able<br>to keep their wits about them, obstinate.<br><br>Volatile means impulsive, wild, feral, quick-tempered,<br>quick to fight or flight, aggressive, unpredictable, a<br>basket-case, sudden.<br><br>Dark means weird, mysterious, sinister, dabbling in<br>the occult, comfortable in darkness, able to liaise with<br>otherworldly forces, powerful.</div><br>Each Stat has two moves which are listed.&nbsp; Again, think of these as card game or simple board game moves.&nbsp; Sweeping and all inclusive.&nbsp; Then you start picking&nbsp; your Skin moves which is all about customizing a general stick figure into something recognizable as what you are portraying.<br><br>Sex Moves and Darkest Selves.&nbsp; This is the meat and bread of the game.&nbsp; This is about denying and being overwelmed by pent up feelings and needs.&nbsp; How each one differs is quite interesting.&nbsp; So many subtle shades.<br><br>Backstory is where we weave the commonalities we might have with each other over our short history.&nbsp; Plus it really gets the Strings ball rolling.&nbsp; Talk about that soon.<br><br>Rolling dice.&nbsp; Always roll two d6 and add the attribute.&nbsp; So if I say roll Hot, you roll the monopoly dice and just add that Stat.&nbsp; 6 and lower is bad.&nbsp; 7-9 is mixed results.&nbsp; 10+ is really good for you.<br><br>If someone has a Condition, you can use it to +1 to your roll if it makes sense.&nbsp; A Condition is some physical or percieved social effect which could give someone an advantage.&nbsp; These can vary to explain nearly anything.&nbsp; Like... <em>Numb with Cold</em> to <em>Slut</em> to <em>Weakened</em> to <em>Covered in Pig Blood</em>.&nbsp; How someone feels or thinks is specificly left off of the this list of possibilities.<br><br>Being manipulative.&nbsp; To talk NPCs into doing whatever, you use Manipulate NPC move.&nbsp; To manipulate a PC you use Strings.&nbsp; Strings are emotional power.&nbsp; They gather and&nbsp; you can spend them like Willpower or Fate points or whatever.&nbsp; They gather in certain predescribed ways and also Skin specific ways listed on the sheets.<br><br><div align="center">You can spend a String on another PC to:<br>}} Add 1 to your roll against them<br>(choose after rolling).<br>}} Subtract 1 from their roll against you<br>(choose after rolling).<br>}} Offer them an experience point to do what you want.<br>}} Force them to hold steady in order to carry out a<br>certain action.<br>}} Add an extra harm to whatever harm<br>you’re dealing them.<br>}} Place a Condition on them.</div><br>Harm and Death.&nbsp; Most physical wounds cause only 1 Harm.&nbsp; Serious problems which require emergency room help are 2 Harm.&nbsp; At 4 Harm a PC is considered dead.&nbsp; NPCs can varry from examples of 2-5 Harm.<br><br>Thats the basics of making a character.&nbsp; I can describe more in general, if you want.&nbsp; Or I can keep the rest to myself i you perfer.&nbsp; Im just trying to dessiminate enough information so you know whats going on.

(Plus it kind of guarentees you have someone to tag with no matter what.)&nbsp; They are for me, of course.&nbsp; My girl tends to try and keep her cool distance from people... even as she gives off <em>turn someone on</em> moves.&nbsp; Like a cat, this is instinctive playful affection, but she knows how she will react if she gets too involved.&nbsp; Getting turned on herself... jealousy.. that fear you feed on... all makes my character start getting 'cat-like'.<br><br>Now this is how I am going to play it out for her.&nbsp; Like in the movie 'Cat people', the main character showed times of being very 'cat like'.&nbsp; When angered, scared, even jelous she took a few cat like aspects and clawed things... climbed down walls like a gymnast... etc.&nbsp; Thats is going to be how I play my 'Feral'.&nbsp; Im starting to take panther like aspects... both mental and physical, but I still have my intelligence and self control.&nbsp; Now that all changes when I have sex and become my 'Darkest Self'.&nbsp; Then I go full panther and must attack my lover.&nbsp; After at least one swipe, I can chose to just run away... which she always does.&nbsp; Thats when she must kill something to come back to human form.... usually a small forest animal closeby.&nbsp; <span class="bbc_u">Beware characters who have small pets.</span><br><br><br>PS for Beoring<br>My beast could possibly hook into your backstory with this...<br><br>Did anyone watch you die, or watch<br>you come back to life? If so, you both<br>gain 2 Strings on each other.<br><br>It would be nice to have someone to slip into my Darkest Self who could maybe take a swipe without getting pissy and bloody.

				Unless someone applied tonight, those posted up now and Beoring will be the only ones getting the free Advancement.&nbsp; I sent a message to CarnivalOftheGoat and told her I was changing the premise.&nbsp; If she wants to she will join us and I will include her into the beginning group.&nbsp; She might play a really cool Witch or something.&nbsp; We will see.<br><br>I am excited to see whats going to happen.&nbsp; I wanted to give everyone participating in the launch of this setting to give us possible thoughts, additions, features, etc. you would like to see in this setting.<br><br>Because of Madison, I placed a large lake close to the school and have them do many of thier competions.&nbsp; Probably some boats to row around, that kind of thing.&nbsp; Their swim team is state level competitors.<br><br>Because of Natassja, I see bell towers and spires and perripets and such at rarely trod heights of the school buildings.&nbsp; Its an old world style building... almost church like architexture giving an accrobat lots to climb up and over.<br><br>Because of Angelica, we decided to use the Women's Catholic School motif.&nbsp; So the uniforms, the nuns, all of that can be a lot of fun to rp against.<br><br>If you have any additions you would like to have which will help youre character fit in better, this is a good time to mention them.&nbsp; As a rough modle, imagine Hogwarts but scaled down conciderably.&nbsp; The grounds on the Potter movies looked like a skyscrapper.&nbsp; This should be more like the size of a college with a dormatory and support for such.&nbsp; The same rich, hilly, green setting spotted with hillbilly locals which tend to some of its duties.<br><br>If you know a good rp buddy who might work well here, this might be a good time to see if they want to join.&nbsp; Especially if they want the free Advancement.&nbsp; I think we have a good collection set up... but a couple extra in case we have drop offs would be nice.&nbsp; Maybe a better model would be Downton Abby, but with the terrain and local flavor from the Hogwarts.<br><br>Hope everyone is as into this as I am.

Ill let the Mortal take a free advance as well.&nbsp; Anyone take me up on that one?<br><br>Secondly... Id like it if we start each thread with our portrait, then only repost it up when we enter another thread.&nbsp; Just a thought.&nbsp; Im going to try and do so.&nbsp; &nbsp;Also Id like to have it so we identify where we are as a first line.&nbsp; Just so we keep whos who and where easy to track.&nbsp; On the description Im going to bold face some landmarks and such which any player is of course able to reference to.

				Some points;<br><br>I thought that we chose our one highlighted stat (usually one of our highest) and the other players discussed which the other highlighted stat would be, the one they'd like to see that character use the most, after Backstory discussion.

I could have Harmony fall at Madison's feet in lust, though as a fae, I think she's all about the promises.

				About wander's question.<br><br>This is what I am basing what Im saying on.<br>Characters can gain experience in a number of ways over the<br>course of play. Two of each PC’s stats are highlighted,<br>and whenever those stats are rolled, the player marks<br>experience.<br><br>Now if you wanted you could maybe substitute a different stat for the one which is highlighted in the beginning of character creation, but generally the moves and rolls needed for that skin are these two stats.&nbsp; To change then would mean your character wouldnt earn experience with most of thier own rolls.&nbsp; I dont see the benefit.&nbsp; Dont forget the Singleton rule.<br><br>The Singleton Rule<br>You may only earn experience from each highlighted stat<br>and each move once per scene. Similarly, you may only<br>earn a String from any one move once per scene.

				I dont think its an exchange for sex.&nbsp; It basicly means Ive gotten some sexual power over you.&nbsp; If I made 10 up you would give me a string... blush, duck away, whatever your normal response is to knowing someone can 'pull your strings' so easily.&nbsp; Since I rolled in the 7 to 9 level it means you can still do the same... give me a string or you have the two other choices.&nbsp; One choice is you throw your self at me sexually.&nbsp; You cant hold back... fuck giving me a string your comming in for a landing.&nbsp; Which is fun.&nbsp; The second one though is you feel an overwelming need to please me and so you make a promise.&nbsp; It isnt a bargin for sex... nothing that direct.&nbsp; It just means... 'heck, I really like this girl'... dont want to give her more influence over me... cant bone her, got that studying I was about to do... well, I do know she wants to stop those loggers... what if I promise some information on that.&nbsp; Show just what I know about her cause.<br><br>To tell the truth this site is just getting started.&nbsp; I dont expect on my second post for one character to be screwing... not that thats a bad thing, but I think this game is meant to lead into that slowly.&nbsp; First one thing, get a sting, then another, get another sting.&nbsp; Suddenly your calling for a Hot roll on someone and even with a -1 you cash in 4 strings and your rolling 2d6 +3.&nbsp; Which can be spent after the roll.. just so there is no wasting of the strings.<br><br>Im about to send you a PM about some of the secrets revolving around the loggers and such.

				Okay, on promises... A Fae would generally enact a two-way promise (as in, I'll do X for you, if you do X for me). Thats how they work in faerie tales along with Changeling:the Lost.<br><br>I only picked a promise as it fits with what monster Harmony is, also the other part of a promise tends to be if one party fails on their action, then they suffer a penalty of some sort. Depends on how it's worded.<br><br>Take money for example. A Fae could promise 2 coins to someone, though that person needs to something back for that pay. Now if the fae doesn't deliver, or that person doesn't do what the fae asks of them... Then whoever broke the promise is in for bad times, as Fate doesn't like that shit and a fae is a creature of pure fate.<br><br>Just saying, as I have no idea how to proceed atm, IC post-wise.

				Okay.&nbsp; Heres what I would say.&nbsp; It says as the third option to promise something they think you want.&nbsp; I think its kind of a knee-jerk reaction to me strumming on your strings.&nbsp; You could say 'Wow.&nbsp; You look like you really know how to swim.&nbsp; Im definitely going to the next swim meet.'&nbsp; Will you ever do so?&nbsp; Who cares?&nbsp; Your a bit flustered... have to say something.&nbsp; This comes to your lips before you can think of anything better.<br><br>Now knowing what we do about the enviromental thing...

				&nbsp; &nbsp; In the stories, Wander, I've noticed a lot of times that Fae (or just other people making bargains) string people along, make them wait it out before outright saying what they want. <br>&nbsp;Maybe Harmony could say whatever she wants to say, and sort of give a 'You owe me a favor' line and then the bad effect happens if the favor isn't done when you call it in.

				You know, regarding the story's rating: considering that Georgia is a freaking cannibal, maybe it'd be best to move the whole game to Extreme?

				Looks like we have our first casualty.&nbsp; Waunder has bowed out.&nbsp; Its too bad he was the first to talk to me about joining.&nbsp; Ill be NPCing his character out of the conversation Madison was having with him.&nbsp; Then Harmony will quietly disappear.&nbsp; We can erase all stings involving the character.<br><br>I figure Ill be losing a few others.&nbsp; The holidays are always rough on games.&nbsp; This one hasnt really hit its roll yet.&nbsp; I hope to get that going tonight.&nbsp; When the first of the year hits Ill take a head count and maybe start recruiting for another batch of players with former claimed Skins open once more.<br><br>Ive decided to embrace the accident I had in choosing the thread I did.&nbsp; I wanted this to feel more like a slightly naughty supernatural Dawson's Creek... with a bit better story and taking itself a bit more seriously.&nbsp; This means that sex if fine if consensual and in small amounts.&nbsp; If someone wants to get NC... or even too detailed in a sexual encounter, I would like them to open a thread in NC or wherever appropriate and finish the scene there with a link to Monsterhearts so avid readers can follow.&nbsp; There are two reasons for this.&nbsp; One it keeps us having a relatively small amount of threads without a lot of NC or darker stuff or very detailed tennis matches of sex.&nbsp; Ever tried posting something in a thread in the middle of a twenty post dialouge of sex.&nbsp; Makes you feel like yourve walked in on your roommate having sex.&nbsp; "Really?&nbsp; Just put... just put this here?"<br><br>Ive responded to the two students in the Computer Lab.&nbsp; Ill have two moves for both Madison and Natassja comming up soon.&nbsp; I hope everyone is enjoying the holidays and are all interested and inspired by our story.&nbsp; If you are not please feel free to PM me and we can get things moving for you.<br><br>Peace.

				I think so. But, on the other hand, I don't know if that's really necessary...

				As a fun exercise, I suggest we all suggest what new Skins we would add in if we were to create new ones for other players or ourselves to have.&nbsp; I have two suggestions.&nbsp; I think it might be fun to develop a few ideas which could be interesting.<br><br><strong>The Dryad</strong><br>I think some kind of sexy plant-like being with some cool seduction and perhaps inspiration and 'nature's defender' type moves.<br><br><strong>The Swarm Lord/Queen</strong><br>There are a couple of Sci-fi's about humans who are adopted by a sentient hive of some kind.&nbsp; Imagine having a swarm of killer bees or rats at your command.<br><br><strong>The Imaginary Friend</strong><br>Appears to one person at a time, visible to only them.&nbsp; Madness lies here for most of the human 'friends'.<br><br><strong>The Tentacled Cultist</strong><br>I know... sick.&nbsp; But just imagine... the Lovecroftian/Hentai possibilities.<br><br><strong>The Necromancer</strong><br>Imagine if that lost little goth kid really was the reincarnated soul of all that is evil?<br><br>We could keep going.&nbsp; What are your ideas?&nbsp; Do any of my ideas sound interesting for you?
