Take care! If you want to join in later when you have time, that shouldn't be a problem.

Depending on interest and how we do attributes, I would be interested in playing the deformed hunchback servant of Tiberius Tullius Germanicus: Possibly as his scribe?

I am open to all sorts of creatures in my menagerie, uhm, I mean household.
Being a Greek slave would make you wanted despite your deformity. I could call you Igor..os.

Re: The Brotherhood of Death - Doctor Who Meets Cthulhu Invi
That character concept can work. A scribe can be useful. Having a slave in the party can be an advantage, as most people don't notice slaves and might say all sorts of things in front of them, and you could talk to other slaves to get inside information that would be harder for other characters to get out of them.

Re: The Brotherhood of Death - Doctor Who Meets Cthulhu Invi
I have no clue what I want to be I looked at those resources linked earlier bur they were each only a page long, nothing to really go off of, and im not to familiar with roman culture. Maybe a ex gladiator or soldier idk :p
We sleep soundly in our beds because rough men stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who would do us harm.
Re: The Brotherhood of Death - Doctor Who Meets Cthulhu Invi
When I post the character creation information, there will be a variety of character occupations (with occupational skills) posted. I'm not sure if I'll have time to do this before I leave, but I'll try to get it done if I can. A former (or even current) gladiator or Roman Legionary are perfectly good options.

Re: The Brotherhood of Death - Doctor Who Meets Cthulhu Invi
I'm going to have to pass as well. The next few weeks are going to be really busy. Sorry.
Re: The Brotherhood of Death - Doctor Who Meets Cthulhu Invi
That's okay. I'm very busy too, so it might not even get properly underway for a few weeks anyway. If you have time later, you'll be welcome to join then.
I'm about to leave, and I haven't yet had time to set up the new board. There's a chance I can get it up tonight, but the character creation information will most likely have to wait.

Happy 4th everyone!

Re: The Brotherhood of Death - Doctor Who Meets Cthulhu Invi
Can I sign up too? As a medical person of some sort perhaps. Either a brilliant and eccentric physician patronised by the wealthy but who has questionable ethics and methods. Or a female character. It looks like it's quite tricky being a woman in ancient Rome as they don't have many rights beyond the home which may make being a character rather limited. If I played a woman physician, her father could be very well respected so that she has some social standing amongst the men in Rome and they give her some leeway in making decisions for herself(!) She would be a much 'nicer' person than the eccentric.
I'm happy with either, whichever will make for a more interesting party!

Re: The Brotherhood of Death - Doctor Who Meets Cthulhu Invi
Thanks, Dr. P!
Yes, you're welcome to join, Aine! A physician would be great, and either of your character concepts could work. Women in ancient Rome had property rights and could own and run businesses, I believe, and there are more options for them than you might think at first glance. There were even a few female gladiators (the Sarmatians were known for having female warriors). While the Roman legions were almost universally male (though a woman could theoretically disguise herself as a man), auxiliary soldiers from the provinces might possibly include the odd woman. Priestesses are also an option for female characters. Female physicians would have been rare, though it's not impossible. They would most likely be thought of primarily as midwives, but there's no reason they couldn't have all the skills and knowledge that a male physician would.
It'll probably be at least a few days before I can set up the board. I'm still getting caught up on things.

Re: The Brotherhood of Death - Doctor Who Meets Cthulhu Invi
I've created the forum, which can be found here. So far only the OOC thread is up, but starting tomorrow I plan to add more threads to it, including a character sheet thread (to which I'll transfer the TARDIS crew's updated sheets), an introductory story thread, and character creation information.

Re: The Brotherhood of Death - Doctor Who Meets Cthulhu Invi
Mr. Handy, I'd like to join your game if you'd have me again.
I'm finally out of Korea and back home in the States (and finished with that terrible job). I have pretty much all the time on my hands as all I do is study now. Sorry I dropped the game with no-notice, the pace dropped to less than 1 post a week or so and I started teaching 30 classes a week, I just couldn't keep up with anything at the time.
I just go around to reading the end of Shadows over Dunwich, crazy. Then I saw that essentially Story and the others already left by the time Tinker was killed, so there was no chance for her to escape like s/he wanted to, sad.

Re: The Brotherhood of Death - Doctor Who Meets Cthulhu Invi
Welcome back! Yes, you're welcome to join The Brotherhood of Death! It is a shame Tinker didn't get to leave in the TARDIS, but she could still be around for some adventure that takes place on Earth after this one if I ever get around to running one set in that timeframe. I had wanted Tinker to go with Story and the others to the caves, but Tobias volunteered first, and he couldn't leave Salem by himself.

Great! Who knows, Tinker will (presumably) live long into and passed the modern era - provided she doesn't go insane in that time then perhaps she can still join up somewhere down the line.
