Christmas festivities are ongoing so I'll only post tomorrow, most likely! Merry Christmas everyone!

Also, I gotta say this. I am kind of surprised that no one is playing Harry Dresden in this RP.

I am too, but then there's possibly the fear if the player gets him "wrong" that all sorts of hell will be rained down upon them.  I mean, because it's Harry Dresden.

I was tempted to play as Murphy, but I was like, "But what if I got her wrong?!" 

Thanks Mil. I can use that.

[Arch-Magos Winter]

You could do Murph well Elf.

[Elf]

You could do Murph well Elf.

Eh, I doubt it.  So I just might draft a Bad Ass Normal who's very much based off of Murphy but not her.

Also, meet Angel, the vampire with a soul.

I'm now trying to work out what sort of pizza Kiyoshi would like....

Any indication on what sort of menu they have? Aside from the specials, I mean. Or on the name of the pizza place, for that matter....

The name of the pizza place is The Brick House.

Think of it as some hipster pizza place.  It's really good, but it has that nerdy pretention to it.  Think like all organic ingredients, five cheese blends, free range meats that sort of thing.  Kind of expensive, but really good.

They also have a fantastic selection of beer on tap.

Ah, OK.

Normally, I wouldn't expect a kid to go for that sort of stuff but, then he is Shirou and Sakura's son....

I doubt they're pretentious about food, but they certainly expect it to taste nice.

Lol, I don't think that's of much interest to Kiyoshi, although Rider probably would drink.

And my second character is up and waiting for approval, while I wait for YOLF to respond to Valda.

[Elf]

Titus Marius the Merciless has been approved.

Man, that is one impressive character sheet, Aiden.

. . . I will admit there is a lack of the prettier male vampires around here.  There's Angel, but he doesn't count.

With a little more experience and practice Marius might learn the next trick in line for Obfuscate: Appearing to be someone else! Then he can just pretend to be pretty.

But right now yeah, pretty big deficit in pretty male vamps.

Crap, now I need to watch that episode of Angel where he meets the Master for the first time, because yeah, he'd have a similar reaction to the Destroyer Worm.

Still, that is a fantastic character sheet.

Oh Mike, the fantastic beer selection is part of the reason Lancer loves it so. 

But right now yeah, pretty big deficit in pretty male vamps.

As GM, I suggest that this should be changed!  I'm not going to force anything though, but make a suggestion. :p

Dhampirs are cool too.

[Aiden]

I'm really glad you like the sheet. I put a bunch of effort into it that could have gone into other things because damn it, I have RPG sourcebooks and a bunch of Wikipedia articles on Rome to draw information and references from and I wanted to use them.

Poor Marius, he'll never know love with a face like his. Even if he's fully functional.

[Arch-Magos Winter]

Please, Jack is ruggedly handsome.

[Aiden]

That does not equate to pretty.

[Elf]

Please, Jack is ruggedly handsome.

Like Bruce Campbell ruggedly handsome?

You said his Charisma was D.

Poor Marius, he'll never know love with a face like his. Even if he's fully functional.

And anatomically correct?

Wait, I thought vampires need to spend "blood points" to get it up and what not?
