I am the new Flesh, Long live the Flesh!

Avatars are the spirit of origin for your character in our game. Spirits have many rebirths and many characters are linked to them but the avatar is the crucial peice to the puzzle. It is the first character or instance you step into reality. Xavier became Narcolotept, Zoe became Viktor, Sy became Aerlee, and Zildjinn became Virago. These changes came about because of the added prescience of Chaos. Chaos is the force that our original Avatars tried to escape but in doing so had killed themselfs when they crash landed on earth pre man. Here the wrecked spelljammers and the spirits of our avatars came to rest. Once we were able to link with our Avatars old powers and abbilities came back, and rebuilding our ships too was a crucial thing.

Authac in all his glory decided to consume earth 2050 and all of its inhabatants before the future of 40k. Here he brought the Tri-force engine know as Titanicus. (for those who don't know think ear-whigish unicron type vessel.) Trying to use its power and consume the world that opposes Authac. When we pushed Him and his forces back he made a second strike on the mothership SPELLJAMMER. That is where we made our final stand. One by one we picked off his pantheon, and in the end Authac was all alone to face KYOS the new breed of truth and change. I dealt a final blow with the 7-wheel of fortune cards and a lymric spending a wheel each time it was mentioned. In the end we had won and Chaos went into hybernation.

Thus was the start of the KYOS pantheon. We had gained a new vessel in the titanicus engine, and gained new powers with the kyos crystals in our possesion. now was the time to break new water and leave the earth for someplace a little different. So we headed out into the stars and made our way to guild space.

Past lives of new characters.

So a little more on the history of our game. It all started around 2000-01 and to get off to a start we all made vampire characters. My name was Luciano Greatori an italian immagrant who in 1790 was born to a wealthy family from Venice, Italy. In 1817 Luciano took a cheap ride to the americas on a cargo ship and died of vermin poisoning. But that was not to be his fate thought the man in the shadows. Lurking there waiting for his last breath Samael D'Gaul 5th gen Lasombra vampire decided he would take this young man on as his childe. Thus Luciano Greatori was born again into the world of the night. Luciano would learn to be a fighter and a man of his word over the next several decades also honinig his power to be much more than just shadow and blood. he fought several wars: Civial War, WWI, WWII, and Vietnam. It was through these experiances he learned to command and control others and gain there respect. Finally after the 60's Luciano settled in Chicago, Illinois were he became a member of the primogen of Chicago as a enforcer to the sheriff There he made his true mark among the Vampires.

After the turn of the millinium Chicago was due for changes and one was the primogen. Luciano was now the Sheriff and had a whole faithful group of vampires behind him. Thus when it was discovered that the Prince of Chicago was in fact not a Venture but a Malkav in hiding, He was taken from power and banished from Chicago. This creatures name was Aramondos Lex and when he left Luciano's fellow brethern elected him Prince of Chicago. from there the rest of the Primogen was Formed. The year 2050 a.d .

So after we became rulers of our own kingdom, that is when we began to stretch our legs. Xavier became Sherrif of Chicago, Sy ran succubus club, Zoe was the right hand of the prince, And Zildjinn was the mage of the group. We first caused war among the vampires to reduce the amount and the thining of the blood lines. 8 gen on down only. If you dont make the cut you dead! and then I personally went after the sabbot. These would be our last quests as vampires. Soon Avatars would come back to find us and want to complete there cycle.

Warp storms beware!!

So sunday night we couldn't play because of a conflict with our schedule. So we took the night off and will have a whole week to burn. I hope that some of the players get a chance to come on and comment and check out the updates. I also hope that this break refreshed some players to get back into the whole campaign. Its been a while since we took a break and I know sometimes it slows down the playing process for the others.

I have been working on game notes and art for the game since last friday night. Thus far its coming along smoothly. I feel the best stuff comes late at night when your kinda getitng tired and you have that moment of clarity were everything meshes together just right.

I think that some of the players need independant sources of outlet as well as each other in the game, So I have been working on a few side stories for the others to have. Eoz is going to be a Paladin of the Royal Fleet of Kyos and needs to quest for that which makes him loyal and Holy enough to Paladin for Kyos. Xallyus is a Fighter questing for the champ belt and the Fame that comes with it. He's fought several fights already but nothing that will make his fame skyrocket. I thought of a tournement and all that kind of Jazz would be a nice way to make him gain some fighter status. Then again go find the biggest baddest guy in the area and beat the shit out of him always helps too. Vallymar is a collector of Ioun stones and is presently working toward getting his starship up and running. I thought how cool would it be to send him on a quest outing that would test his skills as a spelljammer and at being able to control his Ioun stones in battle. And finally Vika, she is the sister to Vallymar and has the elementalism gene powering her as well as being a first class alchemist. I wanted her to finish a couple of commisions her business had going, then I wanted her to work on some alchemy for the pantheon.?? ohohohoh sounds exciting!!

For every action there is an oposite reaction! and then some!

Alchemy refers to both an early protoscientific and an early philosophical discipline, both combining elements of chemistry, metallurgy, physics, medicine, astrology, semiotics, mysticism, spiritualism, and art. It is in this protoscience that I find the insperation to make it more than just some one off power and take it up a notch within our game. John has scanned a anime insider from me with all the F.M.Alchemist runes and components list in it, so now new interpretations can be made of old alchemy. Vika is the primary user of Alechemy in our game and she is also a elementalist.

As for other list of powers and new abbilities being used by some of our players. I think Xallyus has the Street Fighter/DBZ fighter thing going on and I like that so I am currently putting together a special moves list to compete with the fighter aspect.

Eoz is a good/chaos(KYOS) Paladin and I would like to also do something up for his Character that honors the paladin/crusader type of profile. He wears a helm of Dragons and armor to match so I thought a dragon spell list with mabey a couple of summons might be nice! I also thought how fitting it would be to reintroduce characters that dealt with our older Pc's that mabey could bring something to this round of gaming.

As for Vallymar He has one more session to go before he is out of Prelude. This is the time in which you start a new or newer character that has a grace period as not to die. I got some stuff planned for the last prelude session!! and I hope that all the characters can appreciate the intricate weavings of the plot. Ioun stones are Vallymar's main attraction and pastime. We took old skool D&D iouns and 1-uped them to mass magic items. So now being even cooler than they originally were intended. More later on the magic and list of abbilities. Kyos out.

Past Exp and the Gold to boot!

I remember Alex and I and Beef and Clint used to play alot of made up missions for the the Game Heroquest (which is still the best board/rpg game ever made!). So in making our own missions in Heroquest it was at best our stab at being like the older guys we looked up too. I remember getting the expansion packs for heroquest and rocking everyday for about a month on our own. Alex was always the elf and beef always the barbarian. Clint was either the mage or the dwarf. and I would play the left over.

So doing this had given me the courage to run a campaign early on but with the growing up phaze and basketball being our main drive, we kinda grew apart and I was left to play with the unmentionables whom had no use for the basic game of Heroquest. This was 1995-96 and it was Summer time when I finally found a decent job for pioneer seed corn and started building my empire of CD's. It took all summer and then some for me to be able to afford a couple of the books that we were using at the time. Vampire core rule book and Werewolf with the clawed cover. These were forever lost to the Chodes that I played with and to this day would burn to the ground if I had to see them. As I said in the first post the dark ages had arrived!

So On and So forth

So into the current with my story. I now play with five others whom I respect as the best players I've ever had the oportunity to play with. First is Jason aka"Beef", "Futsa", (Xallyus). He was in my class in Highschool and coming up him and I were friends and played alot of B-ball together. Next is Alex, (Eoz). He was also in my class in Highschool and we also played alot of B-ball together. Alex is an outstanding artist, as well as a videogamer from Hell! Next is Amtheyst (Vika) who is John's wife and Alex's sister in law. She used to run her own coffee shop and would get me wired to the max!! Double shots of Esspresso!! I started playing as I mentioned before over at Jimmy P's a with John. Amy happened to be another of the players over there. Lastly is John (Vallymar). he is the originator of the Game and is the stand alone player now. John has at least 20 some odd years of Role playing exp, and is by far the most inventive dude I know. His Art is awesome. I hope to put some up on the blog soon.

First Post of the Online Madness

I have decided to blog exploits of the great times I have with my friends roleplaying. I thought at first a website would be cool but then I decided to go all out and make it an open to the world forum for the players and I.

The history of Playing together takes a few twist and turns but for the most part it has been six years and its going strong. I have to say that of all the times I have heard geeky shit about role playing that this isnt your older cousins D&D. I was young with my first experiances at rpgs. I thought that you made everything in the game with dice and that you had to follow the rules exclusively. My cousin Aaron is the first to introduce me to D&D and Warhammer around 1988ish to 1992-3ish and let me tell you being 8-13yrs old made a pretty big impression on me . He was older and Had all the cool dragon posters and old fold out maps hanging on his wall. I also remember him having shit loads of Minitures and paints. He would just jam in his basement all night long on a game. I only played a few times with him and his friends. One off sessions as I call them now. But for the most part fantastic for a junior high kid to run back and tell all his friends that he was playing rpgs with college kids and keeping up.

Then came what I refer to as the darkages of RPG's for me . I went on to play with several unmentionable people in my teens and highschool years. Vampire, Werewolf, Shadowrun. these were the games we played. old skool books and old skool frame of mind. needless to say by the time I was 17 I thought the only RPG's I would play were made by Squaresoft. HAHA.

That all changed my senior year when I got a Job at the Country Club outside of P-town. A friend of mine got me the job and I started working with some Cats I knew from back in the day. John was a bartender there and he was the DM and game maker. He played with a few oldskool friends that got together at Jimmy's house. Jimmy worked with me in the kitchen and was the main character at the time or as I call it the Stand alone player. So everynight for a year we got together in Jimmy's kitchen around the table and tangled with the forces that be. and that is how I got to know John and learn the truth about Role Playing. more later!!
