If it makes you feel better i thought Russo was using Maroon.

i can easily pick another color There are 14 to choose from, i think 1 should be free.

red seems untaken though it's a bit garish. purple also good an I don't think anybody is using orange though if your heart is set on brown russo don't mind changing

I picked Sons of Asgard but have a few variations to toss at you too.
Asgard's A-holes (just because you were a great warrior didn't mean anyone liked you)
Roll'n Thunder (must have loud pipes on them)
Bifrost Breakers (requires a bit more knowledge but cool none the less)
Niflhel's Valkyries (direct equivalent of hells angels  :D)

Oh BTW i love Norse mythology so this is one of those things that gets the brain going.

Yeah, LOVES me some Dresden.

Mage and Demon were the only WoD games I liked personally. I like Monte Cooks d20 WoD MUCH better. The magic system in McWoD is unrivaled.

Man, I've gone through the first 6 dresden in a week and a half, my bag has Dead Beat in it now. I've only played a short intro to mage to get the rules down, and apparently my roomies husband is making a vamp game. Now I need to read THAT 300+ pg rulebook too, lol.

In game though, we doing watch like last night?

No reason not to for the watch. If everyone is done with the making camp posts, we can get rolling into the night. If you aren't sure where you are in the watch lemme know. If you would like to change your place in the watch rotation for any reason do so In-Character.


Yeah, I started reading Dresden back during the time I had the flu a couple of months ago. My girlfriend had been a fan years earlier, and owned the entire collection, give or take 2 she couldn't find (I graciously repurchased those missing titles for myself during my read through.) I love how everything just constantly builds. It's like a pressure cooker, and it the stakes ever-increasing ad to the tension. Love it!

In the Mage game I played a "reformed" ex-con car thief. He was one of those Euthanatos fate/luck/death mages. In a perfect illustration as to why playing RPGs in a all-access game store environment isn't necessarily the best choice for cohesive group experiences...

Another player, for no reason other than that he was bored and "felt like it" set a bomb on a car that was located relatively close to the group as we discussed our future plans.

The bomb blew up, injuring most of us, and killing the new player who had literally just finished creating his PC.

The party split up in different directions in order to hunt this other guy down who had in the meantime holed-up in his home.

With the Mage magic system I was able to fire my pistol into the guys front window, the fire from the combustion of gunpowder rode the bullet into the home, where my Luck powers allowed the bullet to ricochet into his very explosive chemicals. His house go boom. Another player was on the roof of a building in the alley behind his house with a high powered sniper rifle. Had I failed he would not have.

Good times.

The Demon PC I played with that same group is actually the same character as the Demon you guys have encountered tales of so far. Distilled into d20.

The one time I got to play mage i basically made Lou Kang. It wasn't a very good experience just because the storyteller was an ass. I basically got screwed the first time i used a spell because he didn't explain how powerful each number of success would make a spell. So in trying to kill a bum on a bench he decided i took out half of central park and almost killed the entire group. He had also already railroaded us into bargaining our souls away for nothing, we didn't get much of a choice since we couldn't just say no and walk away.

Well i didn't walk away at that time, but the whole group quit the game by the end of the session due to his asshatery. I got my revenge about a year later though, he slept with my girlfriend at the time so i dumped her after i whipped his ass (i'm sure it is embarrassing to get beat by someone who is less than half your size) and got him fired (he was working at the same fast food place as I was at the time and it was more important to keep me than him).

Man, I've gone through the first 6 dresden in a week and a half

Just wait it gets even better  ;)

never played any WOD but I really (and I mean really really) want to, the problem is being a britfag myself it's hard to find people to play with and my current victims-ah-uh i mean players really don't want to change systems which I can honestly sympathize with, I just really want to read through the core book and see what it's like but I am poor for now and Christmas is coming up so I really can't justify spending money on myself right now

also..

dude that fucking sucks, to steal your girlfriend is one thing but to fuck up a game like that is just unforgivable!  :p
seriously though dude sounds like a douche get a banhammer on him and by banhammer I mean huge ass battle axe (a warhammer or huge sword is also acceptable)

Dude, not to spoil too much for anyone reading, but he just ate half the fucking villains with an undead T.rex! No wonder people actually animate those on the min/max boards! If only Harry was more of an artificer, undead robot (Frenzied Berserker) T.Rex with frikkin lazer beams.

.... Alright, forgoing sleep tonight for Proven Guilty....
