    M's face softens behind the mask. "You weren't here in the beginning, Christina. You don't know the Ten. There's so few of us left, but I'm still here. I remember everything." A scowl forms on the masked face, and M turns to the narrator again, speaking in an electronic, distorted crackle. "But, you remember. You also remember how I tried to make good again, and only just became decent this last go around. But, every time before this last time, it ended before I could actually make something of myself. And then it all ended right when I was feeling correct." M shakes thon's finger at the narrator. "I'm doing something different, now."

    @Kro Hm. Just the 10 Royalblue.

    @Shock G I just realized [Mighty] doesn't work as a Niche Trait. Otherwise it's good.

    @Huntera Say... 5 Gold 5 Royalblue?

    @Shabooty Lookin' good. Did you have 25 Red before? Gonna ask for -10 on the Magician, though, and [Cold Reading] seems a tad redundant?

    @Langly Yaaaaay. Also, you could play an anthropomorphic turtle who is an adolescent and also a practitioner of ninjutsu. Just not a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle.

    Did you mean to say something to me?

    Lorenzo takes off his top hat and fishes around in it for longer then necessary, eventually pulling out a pack of cigarettes.

    "Hm, feels weird knowing I have these cigarettes while also knowing this form is completely new."

    Lorenzo stuffs a lit cigarette into a cigarette holder and takes a drag of it.

    "Ha! Chet would hate this!"

    @Shabooty It'd cost 5 Gold, but it doesn't really fit as a Niche Trait.

    "Actually," I say, the arm swinging me around to face Lorenzo. "The form isn't new. It grew up here in the city, just as anyone else would. You've got a history, you're just jumping into it a little late. Wonderful thing, the way Entry works, eh?"

    Ah, missed this.

    No, you're creating characters like any other character you would make for any other game. They're just aware of who they were. Like, when your wizard dies in a D&D game, and the player rolls a ranger - that's the same "person" in this world. There would be continuity there. Essentially reincarnation/timelord regeneration.

    @Huntera Explain [Force Palm] to me.

    @Kro Looks good.

    Shove both of your hands forward and creates a wall of... I guess Solid Air?

    A short range (5 foot-ish) force push I guess.

    The idea is we are souls that have reincarnated into different forms throughout all of DE?AD's gloss games, and this time around we'll be able to recall echoes of those past lives, and our world will reflect the same.

    A pretty, muscular thing pushes herself off of the floor. She's wearing in a dress formed out of some sort of plastic, a thick fall of lazily curling black hair streaked with the same green as her dress, big bright eyes the color of a forest in summer, and a scowl.

    Penelope grabs a doughnut.

    "I slept like shit." She stuffs some pastry in her mouth. "Thanks for the 'nuts, Percy."

    @Huntera Sounds good. 5 Royalblue

    @Langly Looks good. I like it. Gonna have to work on getting you a car, though. Also, put some clothes on.

    [Driver] should be specified a little, ala [Getaway Driver] or [Stunt Driver] or [The Transporter] or something. Regardless, it'll probably cost you 15 Gold. [Brawler] is good. 5 Red or 5 Gold. [Steel Nerves] is cool. 5 DimGray or 5 Tan. [Minor Precognition] also good. Gimmie 10 DarkRED for that.


    Also, it seems I forgot to put DimGray into the character sheets, so everybody add 0/0 to their statline before the Black points.

    Irmin rises from lotus position, staff in hand, cracking his back with whining woody pops and scratching his mossy beard. He catches M's banter, "Heh, the ten...plus one." He looks down at his jeans, the green robes gathered around his waist, and his bare bark covered torso. He feels his bald head and sighs, "It's odd. I feel so old and so young at the same time."
