I do believe the angel can use smart instead of weird for one of their "magic" move. Well, point is, I don't like having weird characters. XD I am not the weird type. Other stats are fine. And I've seen how "weird" characters can get to attain certain powers. I will personally try to avoid that. I do believe the choice is entirely viable, too. So it's good.

Imagine taking the news and being like "Welcome to ANC. The Apocalypse News Channel. Today... Rain of deaths at 80% with a little of deadly wind." The Angel could be my alley but like... Since it's more surgery style than my usual style, I don't know how well I'd managed that. Quarantine sounds like Futurama (By chiyako's descriptions) and it's funny. But yeah, an anthro with healing skills or a radio on their back to bring apocalyptic news could be fun. I tend to stay away from power positions. Savvyhead aka possible engineers, could be fun. Putting a more realistic take on the kind of Mila, I suppose. (Instead of just wrenching th

On the plus side, I believe we have everyone that is going to join. See whether Dreams sticks with Show or not. Other than that, there should not be anything left taken. The remaining options is the list Chiyako posted on the previous page, with only what Dreams settles on possibly making any change to it. Skinner being the only one Chiyako did not list earlier that might now be available.

I've looked but I don't know what is left and what I should pick just yet. I know it's ironic because the longer I take to choose, the more classes get taken.

Cyrus closed his eyes. In his head laid the past trauma of his life. You'd be surprised what soldiers of misfortune would do for table scraps...Was all he could think about. The days going without food, being nothing but skin and bones, doing unspeakable things for blood money and a full belly. His aloof side showed vulnerability as he held his hands together. He looked at all four of them. Their eyes showing they won't take no for an answer. He lower his head for a bit before lifting it back up. His cheerful, scatterbrain smile appeared once more. "It was silly of me to say that." He chuckled. His laugh, so carefree and calm. The Cyrus

Eria blinked, pulled from her post-planning haze by his question. She shook her head slowly. "I’m... okay. Just thinking." Her eyes drifted back to the blueprint, but the moment of intense focus had passed. It was Aussa who spoke next, her tone gentle but firm, the caretaker stepping forward. "Cyrus," she began, setting her empty bowl aside. "The meal was a kindness, not a currency. You cannot trade a bowl of soup for weeks of skilled labor." She held his gaze, her earthy eyes serious. "You said you haven’t eaten in days. If you work for us for nothing but food, when our project is done, you’ll be right back where you are now: skilled, h

Cyrus nod in agreement, the past is in the past unless they pull it to the present. Coming to that understanding, they begun the main objective: the homestead. Cyrus watched Eria pull out their plans and he listened with the upmost intent. For the first floor, he sees the storefront placed well. The storage must have enough space for the majority of inventory, if not all of it. "Indded, I was thinking the same thing anout the forge being first, after the foundation is set." He said to them. He was talking on par with Eria, matching step by step conversion. The second floor was simple as well. He made sure the measurements for each r

Eria watched him over the rim of her bowl as he cut himself off. Her eyes, usually distant, sharpened for a moment, tracing the sudden tension in his jaw before it smoothed over. She took a slow sip, then set her bowl down deliberately. "People don’t stop like that without a reason," she said, her voice quiet but clear in the firelight. Her gaze wasn’t accusatory, just observant. "But we all have pages we’d rather not read aloud." She glanced at Hiita, whose eyes had dropped to her own scarred knuckles; at Aussa, who tensed almost imperceptibly; at Wynn, who was studying a frayed edge of the blanket. "We won’t pry. Some things... just ar

Cyrus was all smiles as they made a counteroffer to camp out instead of the local tavern. He happily agreed to it. That way, coins could be saved and understanding the tight budget they're in, every bit helps. With a simple nod, he follows them out of the district towards the border. The walk was brisk with the crisp air breezing by. Cyrus kept his cheerful expression, not hiding any intent, just an easygoing attitude. He then looked at his satchel, opening it briefly, just to make sure all contents were still there. He had his blueprints, both filled and blanked, writing equipment, and simple tools like his hammer. There was nothing t

Hiita snorted again, but the edge had left her laughter. His loud explanation about the lumber was either a bold lie or a clever dig at the other carpenter’s materials—either way, it showed spine. “Hiita,” she offered, crossing her arms. The mention of a tavern, however, made her shake her head. “Save your coin and your blueprints. We’ve got supplies. If you can stand campfire fare, we can talk there.” Aussa gave a slow, considering nod. His point about real wood was well-made, even if his method was chaotic. “Aussa,” she said. Her eyes flickered to his stomach with a hint of sympathy. The hunger explained the lateness, the scatterbraine

Should we be adding our own characters to the character thread so we can edit them as need be?

What's the issue with weird? The Maelstrom exists and is a kind of risky psychic resource. For the Savvyhead it's a relationship with machines.

In the original Apocalypse World list the ones not taken so far are: The Angel (Healer/Medic)("Angels are medics. If you want everybody to love you, or at least rely on you, play an angel. Warning: if things are going well, maybe nobody will rely on you. Make interesting relationships so you’ll stay relevant. Or sabotage things, I guess.") The Chopper (Gang Leader)("Choppers lead biker gangs. They’re powerful but lots of their power is external, in their gang. If you want weight to throw around, play a chopper—but if you want to be really in charge, play a hardholder instead. Warning: externalizing your power means drama. Expect drama.")
