Talk:Christopher Steps-Forward

Gabe: Sorry I haven't emailed you yet, I have no net at home and can't use email services at work anymore. One thing I noticed is your ritual skill is only 3, it should match the amount you know, so it needs to have some freebies spent on it.

As for abilities, your Enigmas, you can't have a skill start at four dots, it has to be raised from 3 to 4 dots with freebies.

Also, I'm not sure if expression or perform is storytelling but you might want to up that stat a bit, I dunno.

Do you get the 9/7/5 attributes? It seems your stats are a bit lower.

Due to your... age, you may start the game with an extra gift, chosen from either level ones for your breed, auspice.

Or, you can start with an extra gift that is level 2 from Ragabash. It is advisable not to spend 7 freebies on a gift, level one gifts are fairly cheap with exp.

Sorry this is all hap-hazard!


--Brandon 10:34, 24 January 2008 (MST) No worries about the e-mail. Thanks for getting back to me. I've got some questions in response:

- 2 of the rites I know are minor rites, which you can buy for 1/2 of a rites point, so I was assuming they counted as lvl. 1 together, which would mean that I have 3 lvls. of rites total and a ritual skill of 3. Does that not work?

- I didn't pay attention to the skill limit of 3. I'll fix it.

- Good call with the expression/perform. I meant to ask you what you think storytelling would be. I'll look at those two more closely and see which is most appropriate.

- 9/7/5?!? Sweet! Ben (and the book) said 7/5/3. . . That'll actually change things quite a bit.

- Thanks for the extra gift. I'll take those 7 pts. and run with them. Btw, I'm thinking about being just a bit older (25-28 or so) than the rest of the pack.

- Lastly, I'm still trying to pick between Scent of the True Form and Truth of Gaia as my Philodox beg. gift. Any thoughts on which would be more useful/appropriate?

I've got a fairly developed back story in the works. I'll try to post it by tonight. Also, I picked up a few books for $2 at half-price books: the werecoyote breed book, and old first edition main book (just for me to read), and a book about the Umbra. I'll bring them Friday.
