(Semi-OT) FfH forum game awareness

Hum ? In almost every werewolf mith I know of (and that includes FfH) the werewolfs do remenber what they did while in Crinus (transformed) form.

 

[Jono]

They don't remember their first night transformed.

 

[Silverkiss]

That´s a detail =X

Well, not MY werewolfs at least. ;D

Dibs on NotW XII.

I find it so funny that you're not interested inplaying NotW, but you love to GM it!

So... care to give us a preview of what you're planning for XII?

 

[Jono]

I have 2 ideas for XI. Either werewolves in hell (lynching is just throwing people into a boiling pit of lava) or werewolves amongst vampires (lynching is throwing a guy into the sunshine, if he doesn't burn up he's shot with a harpoon)...

Nothing concrete yet, but I have vague ideas about taking a page off Burning Wheel and giving each character an interesting set of Beliefs and Instincts, as well as using its lifepaths to chronicle the stuff they've done earlier in their lives. Though that's not really a new mechanic, just a way to generate character backgrounds and motivations quickly.

I've also got thoughts about revamping/expanding the gold system a bit and do more with different factions. It might be that I'll change it into a spin-off game a la Unser, but it could also be that XII will just be Mafia with a couple of extra rules, as before. In any case, I'll observe how the gold and different families affect gameplay in NotW VI and only give XII more thought when I've seen how well the concepts worked out in this one.

Why exactly would they shoot someone with a harpoon if they turned out to not be a vampire? And why wouldn't they all just go stand in the sunshine? Seems like a simple impaling with a wooden stake would do the trick just as well...

 

[Brisingamen]

i'm trying to give special powers to everyone, but it gets a little hard after the 20th. does anybody have suggestions?

It's everyone that is a vampire. The werewolves don't burn up in the sun...

 

[Silverkiss]

lol, nice.

The name will be "Terror in the Calabim Court" ? XP

 

[Jono]

I was thinking more like "Day of the Werewolves."

Items. .

 

[Brisingamen]

i have lots of amulets and things like that, but it'dbe nice to have items that aren't just protective.

 

[Chandrasekhar]

Well, number 7 is going to be run next, so I suppose you can look there for any ideas, if you want to.

 

[Xuenay]

I'll post a list of all the special abilities and items used in NotW VI once it ends.

 

[Brisingamen]

Xuenay, you should have called this the NOTW discussion thread

 

[Brisingamen]

xuenay, is it fine if i steal your money idea a little?

 

[Xuenay]

Sure, go ahead.

 

[Brisingamen]

of course with a few modifiacations, and proper annotation
