Captain Juliette Desjardins is my character of choice . This seems like fun, it will be interresting to test this type of gaming as I have mostly been playing table top.

Well... Lucius was enjoying his few fleeting moments free from fear of technology. Now a step into the future ought to really shake him up. Yipee!

I'm wondering what Elizabeth will make of a far-future sci-fi setting!

If you don't mind, may I swap from Dok to 1st Lt. Hu Xiang, Ph.D.? Dok doesn't seem like he'd be apt to step into that contraption.

Re: The Zero Room - OOC Chat Thread
Thanks, everyone! I think we'll all enjoy this game if The Terror Out of Time is any indication.
I'll mark all three selected characters as reserved by their players. I'll eventually be sending their secrets out via PM. I have them written down on paper, but it'll take some time to type them up and I don't have much during the week.

It's actually magic that he's afraid of, but with sufficiently advanced technology it's hard for him to tell the difference. His fears are suppressed for a while, though he may still be leery of his surroundings.ImpInTraining wrote:Well... Lucius was enjoying his few fleeting moments free from fear of technology.

Elizabeth comes from the golden age of science fiction, so she may get a kick out of it. Of course, the future will likely be very different from how it was imagined in the 1950s.yockenthwaite wrote:I'm wondering what Elizabeth will make of a far-future sci-fi setting!
That's fine, and Dok will still be around if any future adventures take place in his era. You'll be playing Doctor Hu.SSior.27 wrote:If you don't mind, may I swap from Dok to 1st Lt. Hu Xiang, Ph.D.? Dok doesn't seem like he'd be apt to step into that contraption.

I'll play Sgt. Kohl.
Re: The Zero Room - OOC Chat Thread
Welcome! You've got him.
I've moved The Terror Out of Time to the Hall of Fame. The links to the individual episodes were showing up on the home page, and the only way I could find to avoid showing them there was to not show them in the game's legend when viewed in the Hall of Fame as well, so you'll first have to navigate to The Terror Out of Time and then click on the link to access each episode.

Private George Bond seems interesting. Might I have him?

Re: The Zero Room - OOC Chat Thread
I've sent out character secrets to everyone who has reserved a character so far. It will be a few more weeks before the game itself starts. During that time I'll put up more background material for the new characters only, including a brief history of the last century and information on Styx Base (with a map). I won't have time tonight or during the week, but I should be able to get started with that next weekend.

Re: The Zero Room - OOC Chat Thread
I'd like to play Private Robert MacCrimmon (Bobby?), assuming there is still time since you haven't started yet.
He's not the most interesting character, but the only male left, and I'm not sure I feel up to playing a beautiful lady, rather stick to my own gender for my first online game. Can I request some interesting secret as well please? Besides his obviously illustrious ancient Scottish ancestry.

Re: The Zero Room - OOC Chat Thread
The lad is yours, and welcome aboard! You can have him go by Bobby if you like, and the game doesn't start for another two to three weeks (early September is my goal).
The characters' secrets were already all written months ago, so what I've written is what you get. You may find them interesting, but I'm sure there's a character with more interesting secrets out there. It's not really a secret that he's a descendant of Jamie MacCrimmon, more of a reference that those familiar with classic Doctor Who might get. I'll send you your secrets just as soon as I type them up.

Re: The Zero Room - OOC Chat Thread
Awesome. Honestly, that secret and the eager Scottishness traditional to his family are enough to go on. I really do look forward to playing him, given a night to sleep on it. I guess my reason for that comment was mainly that his skills seemed so focused on punching things that he had little room for other interesting skills. But on sleeping on it, I think the lack of skill variety is itself something to work with, and the secret is nice to have, just as something extra.
Anyway, looking forward to the game, it seems fun.
