Re: OOC - Campaign Talk
While this game will begin in the first part of 1925 in New York City. I plan on some prologue vignettes in which the characters build relationships with each other and with Jackson Elias. I have posted important information about Jackson Elias in the NPC thread.

Character creation will be standard for the 6th edition rules. If you roll up a terrible character, I will allow a reroll.

Re: OOC - Campaign Talk
Mr. Handy, Amy Lawrence is a great character and will fit perfectly into the campaign.

I'll need a few days to read and prepare. As soon as I'm ready I'll post the character, perhaps around next weekend if that's fine for you.

Make sure you have some connection with Jackson Elias. The NPC that I posted.

Re: OOC - Campaign Talk
Could someone look up the Occupational skills for the Explorer?
I can't find my Investigator's Companion.
Cheers!

Re: OOC - Campaign Talk
Sounds good.
Would you mind if I added Anthropology and Sneak to that list?

Well you could drop one of the skills (Swim maybe) and then use your skill of your choice to get those two skills.DrPeterson wrote:Sounds good.

Re: OOC - Campaign Talk
Why do I get the feeling that a Swim check is going to be the instrumental point in this campaign?

Re: OOC - Campaign Talk
Hey Dave, long time no see!
And no, I didn't know.
I'll go check it out forthwith.
Edit: Alas, no Explorer profession!

Looks over campaign. I dont think so.......................... Well maybe at the last climactic battle......
Re: OOC - Campaign Talk
Oh, good, I have points in Swim! Too bad I can't fight.
Welcome back, Dave!
The Investigator's Companion lists the following skills for Explorer: Climb, Dodge, Firearms, First Aid, History, Jump, Medicine, Natural History, Navigate, Other Language, Photography, Swim, possibly Archaeology, Anthropology, or other scholarly skill. This is more than eight skills, but I'd guess you'd just choose a selection. The 7th Edition occupational skill list for Explorer (from The Well of Sacrifice) is: Climb or Swim, Firearms, History, Jump, Natural World, Navigate, Other Language, and Survival. All of the gun skills got folded into FIrearms in 7th, Natural World is Natural History, and Survival is a new skill added in that edition.

Re: OOC - Campaign Talk
Quatermass,
would your prefer my taking your toned down occupation list, or do I take the Swim-heavy list from the Companion?

Re: OOC - Campaign Talk
The 6th edition lists pretty much have 8 occupational skills. I would prefer that. As long as you have 8 that's fine by me.
