Considering an email / forum-based PnP game (Supranerds Only Thread)
KvP:
I'm not terribly familiar with Wraith, but I hear it's pretty good, some say the best in the WoD line. Wasn't it cut short?
Boro_Bandito:
I've heard Wraith was good, I'm just not sure I'd be up for playing OWoD at this point, too used to the new rules, new lore, and whatnot.
I'm having trouble thinking up a character concept. I know I want a guy with high Resolve and Composure, the kind of character that could look a rampaging monster in the eye and say "Go to hell." (I realize that it may in fact 9 times out of ten be a really stupid thing for a person to do but I want the option to do it anyway) and I'm just having trouble finding a compelling reason for him to have it that way, and I don't want to do it if I can't think of a good reason since that's kind of defeating the purpose.
KvP:
Think about what sort of character would have that kind of heroic willpower. A priest with unshakable faith is the classic archetype (perhaps an exorcist's assistant who happens upon a real possession?). A former POW, a firefighter, a refugee fleeing a bloody civil war, an ex-con fresh from a Supermax facility, the last living survivor of disaster / massacre / monster attack X, even an adrenaline junkie Xtreme sportsman. Somebody who's so familiar with fatal danger that they barely bat an eyelash at it, somebody forged by their experiences such that they're not afraid of death.
Boro_Bandito:
Alright awesome you gave me the boost I needed, I'm thinking adrenaline junkie is the way to go, outdoorsy, maybe a former white-water rafting guide or rock-climber who ran into a real monster in the wild. His friends tell him it was probably just a bear but he knows that he didn't imagine the evil intelligence in the creature's eyes, and the missing ring finger on his right hand is a reminder every day of the real monsters out there in the darkness.
