    So Tjf, Moonblack, myself and possibly Reigns and Unisol? Or am I getting that wrong?

    I'm still working on my character but I'll probably join soon.

    I'll be joining as well, as a goblin if that's allowed.

    @Regin34 @unisol_gr44
    Very nice cooperation. My only remark is - why in hells they decided to become bounty hunters?
    @Regin34 - You can start at your convenience.
    @unisol_gr44 - I have some doubts about the telekinesis skill, but in the end, sure why not. But you won't be lifting starfighters. The rope is a nice idea, but for now, you have to be satisfied with only common rope. The improved version you will be able to buy later. Sorry, it would make your character just to much at the start. Except that, I have no remarks. You can start after changing that rope into a normal one.

    Speaking of things we can buy later, how about these:
    A crystal short sword – enchanted to be always sharp and to increase the damage of attack spells. Apart from that it's a typical short sword.
    Vine Armor – armor made of vines. Offers the same protection as standard leather armor, but has an enchantment that allows it to regenerate. However this regeneration is slow and takes a lot of the user's mana, so it is best done between missions, when she's resting.

    Both items were initially part of Celine's equipment before I finalized the character.

    Alyndra hasn't decided to be a bounty hunter herself yet, she'll be helping Clamir do the jobs he chooses to do.
    Okay, I'll change the rope.
    I'm not sure how the magic system works to be honest, do we have a small selection of spells or how would it work?

    I might rework the character, it's more suited to a general fantasy RPG rather than bounty hunters specifically.

    Hmm. Well just my input. Are you sure you need three specialized magic slots? It might be better to just go with magic/spellcasting, if you are going to branch out more than one or two core competencies with it

    Probably a little late to the gate, but would it be possible to play as someone with a bounty on their head? err... other parts?

    I will have to think about the prices (they won't be low), but they are acceptable since they are not overly OP.

    Hmm... I just realised that I have not given a thought to the magic system...
    How about: a skill point give you three free slots for spells, which you have to choose and prepare earlier (10 minutes for a spell).

    So you have skill in a fire, spend half an hour to prepare 2 fireballs and one fire lasso, then can cast it.

    How does that sound?

    Erm... I wasn't expecting that direction. Do you have something specific in mind?

    Okay, that does sound resonable. I'll try to re-work my character with that in mind,

    I kind of was thinking that way too, what with a pirate and all. Didn't know that would've been an option. I think that either Catherine isn't wanted in THIS country or a bounty just hasn't been posted to that guild specifically.

    @majus

    The spell thing is somewhat like DND with needing to properly prepare them then? I don't totally get that system. So basically a fire based spell, gives me three options of what kind of fire spells to use? Do I need to respec then?

    Update: Also having trouble telling what spells are good from the whole list thing and every article about how preparing spells works is just "Ah, you know. The best efficiency method is X" without telling me how any of the basics work for it.

    I should probably decide on Celine's spells. So far I have thought of two:
    A kind of shadow rope spell that temporarily binds the legs of a target with rope made of shadows. Useful for stopping a target that's trying to run away and can be dispelled at will, in case Celine wants to make sure the shadow rope is not spotted.
    Arousing touch – makes it so that Celine's touch puts a slow arousal effect on a person. The effect is SLOW – takes about an hour for the affected person to notice it. Each additional touch slightly speeds up the effect. Does not require skin-to-skin contact – it works through clothes and armor, unless specially enchanted to block such effects. Note that “touch” means ANY kind of touch, including brushing against a person or "accidentally" running into them (to make up for the limited range).

    For both spells I'm not sure what would be a balanced duration. She has both ready to use at will.

    Also not sure how far I should go with describing Celine's next actions. Maybe I'll split my idea in two and see how things go after the initial attempt...

    P.S.: Is it bad that just now I managed to (mis)read the game's name as Booty Hunters?

    Going by the bounty board, that's basically what it is. Not a single guy on it. So no, that's just normal. :p

    Nothing concrete really just several vague ideas. I'll try and sort them out more.
