By the way, what's the currency in this world?

It's a post-apocalyptic scenario. Most likely, there is no currency, and instead people barter.

Officially you trade in ammunition or barter. Factions and people who have access to a lot of pre-End military hardware can afford the ammo route.

Peak Into My Mind

Postby TriStates » Tue Dec 08, 2015 11:48 pm

Heres the base of the posts I've been working on, so the people affected have a heads up on whats coming:

Holiday's going to react to the interactions that have already gone down. I plan to have him drop some dialogue, specifically with both Alexs, Ellie, and Lincoln. The next few posts will be working toward going to work for the day, teaching at a make-shift school he opened in the Deem Z, a few blocs from the Family's compound. Anyone is welcome to come with. This will lead up to our first event for the Family, as well as lay themes for the chapter arc. @Het, I think Linc would have a very good reason to tag along. Holiday could use her skills in the classroom.

I'm trying to decided what to do with Raijen. Short on ideas for this NPC right now, so I could use some of your brain power guys. Do any of the Strangers want interaction?

Zoey Quake is going to get in on this lunch interaction. While grubbin', she's going to interact briefly with the Unit PC's assembled in the mess hall. She'll give some insight to PC's and players about our first event for this group, as well as the inklings about what events lie ahead for this chapter arc.

oki, will start to make a post soon...

also, general question to the populus.

As a character that is fluent in 2 languages(swedish and english), and can say words in other, something i want to reflect. My question is as such; should i make it so all my text is in english, but i am denoting that it is in some other language, or should i leave the non-english and include translations in a spoiler?

If you leave the text in Swedish and include translations in a spoiler, that will help real-life me so, so much in learning Swedish.

So... please?

Well, the three groups need to either meet up, or go their separate ways. At any rate, all must go east sooner or later.

Hey Shy, thanks for helping out with Raijen Banri. I was running into a brick wall, trying to work him into the lives of the Strangers.

Later seems to be the plan my man. We're taking the departure at a slower pace, since we've put some serious worldbuild in, and we're waiting for potential players who are having their time oppressed by Finals. Also, I'd like to give you and the other PCs a chance to just go, and explore 'Frisco. So have fun with it guys :)

I'm sure Lunas would enjoy the company :p

If you can describe the character that you're making, it'll help me make a ruling.
