Rule Breaker CoP:OF

Again as far as I know the player still controls the servant. Your servant will know but your master will not until the master and servant meet up again.

This is mostly true except for a few things: You do not control or speak as your Servant after dying or otherwise being disqualified from the war. As for the special case you mentioned, unless the servant dies after talking to them, it's automatically assumed that the servant's master receives the details of the conversation.

What if the servant in question is not very loyal to its master? Do they have to obey their masters at all times?

Well, obviously we have a rapist in Lincoln Park. they can't betray you because of command seals, but I can make that an issue if you want me to.

I was thinking of an event such as

Spoiler:

Command seals still prevent that. That only worked because he killed the master. Yes, that is allowed in this game, but I'm pretty sure no one here will be as stupid as Tokiomi. Especially those of us who have actually read that part.

Is there still time for me to join? I don't mind having a Servant or not and I can probably finish making the character in a day or two if I get the ok.

Yeah shure there is plenty of time, and you can have a servant if you want.

Corenat can you check your private messages? You haven't replied to them so I'm not sure if you're still judging them or haven't just noticed.

Well golly gee, I finally went up and rolled a few dice. I can't believe I put that off for so long.

Nina: Im really sorry if matt posted this in the wrong place he is drunk.

Im pretty sure Nina most likely posted this somewhere but for servant loyalty maybe it should be covered in a hidden meter.

The meter starts at 0 and goes up or down depending on how your master behaves the closer the meter is to 10 the more loyal a servant is and more likely to carry out orders that go against there moral code or sacrifice themselves for there master while the closer to -10 the more disobedient a servant is and more likely to leave his master should the oppertunity present itself.

This is most likely something that cant be implemented because it would require a GM to evaluate each event and would take up precious game time but was just something i remember Nina talking bout so i thought i would post it.

Any deadline when this is going to start?

GM said 2-3weeks as a tentative start date so the 15th is what id guess.

Yo silly corenat, I sent you a PM already but i'm going to be making a character this weekend, so should be ready soon.

You calling me silly? Boy, I deal only with things that are hardcore, SERIOUS BUSINESS. Like duh Monte Carlo methods!

Is it still starting tomorrow? If it is, what time?

No its not starting tomorrow, I happen to have a 2 hour long retarded thing to go to. I haven't even finalized the [nonexistent] battle system yet

Okay then. If nobody has helped you with the battle system by this weekend, I'll make a master and do it with you.

Yeah that's nice and all but....

Kirei on Gil mana transfer.

Just thought I'd ask but when do you plan on having the game start? Mainly asking because if it's soon i gotta work on my character again.

um go ahead and work on your character, I think i have an almost not vague general idea of the battle mechanics, I'm taking some inspiration from poring over the Pathfinder core rulebook for 5 hours a day. (problem michael?) yeah so once i figure that out i'll post it and we'll do the test battle and see how it goes. then i can set a start date.

Cool guess I'll work on my character when i get the time then.

I'm gonna drop out of the game. It's taking longer to start this game than I anticipated and I'm gonna have my hands full with Rule Breaker and school once it starts. Hope this won't cause any problems.

Do we still have enough people to play now?

NOPE.avi

How many people do we need? Matt told me his friend has completed a character sheet but has no internet atm so he will send it to matt and he will send it to Kooay when he gets it.

well got a bit of bad news i havent been able to get in contact with my friend so im going to say that he has pulled out of the game.

just wondering but does this mean i get a servant or will you guys get another person?

doesnt really matter if i get a servant or not but id rather not have one if thats possible.

So rulebreaker has been abandoned. Just curious how come it was abandoned? Was it because there were too many things that had to be changed or because you just were trolling us the entire time?

It's been abandoned?

well the GM is Kooay so i'd assume the latter

Attention peoplezors I'm putting a little detail into the lodgings system:

If you have not purchased an estate, then you will by default have your start location as a hotel room that you are staying in, located in a randomly selected sector.

Homeless - 2 point defect: You lack a home and wander the streets as a bum. You do not possess a cell phone and when you sleep your location can be easily obtained.

Oh right, about sleep. I know the rounds cover a 24 hour day, but if you don't spend at least one round sleeping you will build up Fatigue stacks, 1 and 2 fatigue stacks reduce statistics, 3 knock you out.

Questions:
1)Can you hypnotize a family (kinda like waver did in zero) in order to get a place to stay?

2) How much would your stats be lowered (I'm guessing 25% for 1 and 2 for 50%) and how long would you be knocked out for?

Edit: 3) lets say your character is a student and they actually go to school could they use that school period to rest/sleep to avoid getting penalties?

1) I suppose you can but right now it makes no gameplay difference besides the obvious one of "people who know where you live will say 'so and so lives with this family' instead of 'so and so is staying at this hotel'"

2)You get knocked out for 1, maybe 2 rounds if I feel sadistic. Stat reduction percentages look bad but I'll take that.

3)This game up until now has had nothing dealing with people who go to school. If you are going to school that will use up at least one round of each day anyway and is rather inconvenient if you're fighting a holy grail war(shiro skipped for the entire 2 weeks I think it was a private school so they didn't care as long as they got money), but none of the player characters do AFAIK, so I’m not going to bother with that unless someone has that in their character.

So its the end of the week.

matt wants to know if the start date is released?

Oh yeah thats right. Start date is September 30th.

I was wondering do we have enough people for the game to start?

I suppose we do. I'm still making servants lol. It really shouldn't take me that long.

I'd like to know are we actually going to have RB or are you just trolling us?

If we are having RB what's the new start date.

shhh the start date is when i finish those last 2 servants, probably by the end of next week.

Just as a final count: Who still is participating?

East Coast:
dinasemrys
itsame273
xenoe
capitalist pig
West Coast:
Char
Nina
You:
skraal

Okay, thanks.

Arrgh I dun goof'd
Turns out spoiler tags are simply meant to denote OOC and anyone can read them in grimwind's game. So I'm going to throw something nasty at every player that I gave the opportunity to see vital information about their opponents. Have fun dealing with my grossly disproportionate retribution that should really be on myself for screwing up.

So do we still use spoiler tags to mark information only meant for the GM, or do we use something else?

If you want to post information only meant for the GM do it in your character section or via PM

Will the players whose characters die become observers?

No because they could be called up to take on someone else's character if one chickens out and quits.
