Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 2:15:42 PM)
well lets talk shop
Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 2:15:57 PM)
what sort of projects is Magnus working on?
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 2:16:23 PM)
Well, a lot. Heh.
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 2:16:40 PM)
Have you read over the background yet?
Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 2:17:08 PM)
not yet, im feeling sort of groggy, so I haven't looked it over, I've got it open though
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 2:19:02 PM)
Alright then.
Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 2:21:53 PM)
hold on brb
Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 2:25:10 PM)
okay first off, now I can't read this without imagining it in the voice of Val Kilmer's Doc Holliday... thought you should know
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 2:25:55 PM)
Well, short version is- His current projects include those which wil help him gather the capital necessary to get 'truly' impressive equipment and funding for future projects. Things he and his assistants are working on include the following 'projects'- TN6-2010: Voice Recognition Adaptable Environment Magazines- Bulky steampunk-esque magazines/clips that 'assemble' rounds based upon the vocalized need of the wearer, and keep producing until a full magazine is made or the materials are used up. Limited usage, includes a billet catch to recycle spent shell casings as the weapon is fired to cut down on weight. The intricate robotics proposed for the interior have yet to be deveoped or implemented
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 2:26:04 PM)
Oh, good. Thats the voice. :)
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 2:27:59 PM)
And he's(Of course) working on 'Power Armor'
Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 2:29:10 PM)
oh god, I'm reading, and I really like the flavor of this character
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 2:29:26 PM)
Thanks.
Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 2:29:55 PM)
"slanderous biased poppycock drivel!"
Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 2:29:58 PM)
XD
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 2:30:05 PM)
:D
Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 2:31:23 PM)
okay, give me a rundown of Magnus's feelings about the other traditions/factions?
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 2:31:41 PM)
I was going to post that in a 'Views on Others' Blue-booking.
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 2:31:42 PM)

Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 2:31:43 PM)
<.<
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 2:31:44 PM)
Lol
Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 2:31:55 PM)
fair enough
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 2:32:20 PM)
but in general- If it isn't science. well. It might be an amusing theory, and there may in-fact be real science behind it. But Magic is for schoolchildren.
Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 2:33:04 PM)
O.O his father was a hermetic? and he's racist? oh goodness this is gold
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 2:35:39 PM)
His father used hermetic methodologies, yeah. House Solitifici
Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 2:35:50 PM)
wonderful
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 2:35:59 PM)
His father was Magnus original idea Dual Trad SoE/Hermetic/Solitifici
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 2:36:30 PM)
But I liked 1950's Steampunk Arch Villain Doc Holiday with APPLE.
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 2:36:49 PM)
*1920's
Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 2:36:55 PM)
okay now I'm starting to develop an idea about Magnus, but I'm curious as to what you feel the theme and mood of the character is, what sort of story do you want to play with magnus?
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 2:38:24 PM)
Well, I am wanting to build my own chantry and cabal. Something themed like the 'League of Extrodinary Gentleman'(The movie) but with well..bad guys. A refined society of villainy that OOC and IC is tongue in cheek about their 'villainy when not engaging technocratic targets. Te end result- use New Orleans as a place to wage a terrorist campaign against the Technocratic Union and those whom impunge upon the interests, desires and goals of the assembled Cabal.
Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 2:41:07 PM)
okay okay I can dig it, I really like the character, but reassure me with the 'villian' schtick... are you saying mages as villians and techies as the heroes?
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 2:41:24 PM)
I'd like to see storylines involving Magnus being able to foil NPC 'do-gooder' types, and in grow his legitimate buisnesses and aspirations while setting his targets higher and higher on the local technocratic scene.
Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 2:42:28 PM)
hmmm, well, I have to try and cater to the widest audience, but I've got some stuff in mind, especially if Magnus doesn't mind being a prick
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 2:43:07 PM)
And the Technocrats are not heroes by any sense.
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 2:43:17 PM)
But Magnus himself is an 'extreme' member of his tradition.
Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 2:43:21 PM)
right
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 2:43:24 PM)
Else he'd not be a Dissident.
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 2:43:29 PM)
Thus he's probationary.
Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 2:43:37 PM)
hmmm let me boot up your sheet
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 2:44:42 PM)
Nobody invites the arch villain over for tea as it were. and his rants in paradigima have a much narrower audience. Heh. If they get published
Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 2:45:58 PM)
hmmm why all of the specific sciences?
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 2:46:26 PM)
Because I plan to use them to create things without magic. Inventions and the like, and I pan to build up his knowledge of various ACTUAL sciences.
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 2:46:35 PM)
instead of just 'Science/Hypertech'
Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 2:46:44 PM)
hmmm
Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 2:50:44 PM)
okay... mansion isn't required, its pre-revised
Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 2:51:09 PM)
2 extra freebies, and please let me know where you spent all of your points, it'll make my life easier
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 2:51:10 PM)
I just wanted to make my house 'villainous lair' enough
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 2:51:23 PM)
erm. Haven't seen the sheet in a bit. One sec
Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 2:51:34 PM)
with resources 4 you will be fine
Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 2:54:24 PM)
hmmm okay I like it but your sheet is coming up with a lot of restricteds... probationary member, arete 3, avatar 4, resources 4, shit... hypertech
Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 2:56:59 PM)
I'd like you to try and tone some things down a smidge, I'm not saying no for the future, but to start I'd like you to trim those areas to 3 restricted items
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 2:57:32 PM)
?
Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 2:59:15 PM)
also, you can't have 7 points in flaws and 3 adversarial backgrounds also
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 3:01:50 PM)
I'm still on the tone some things down a smidge part. I don't think I've gone too far out there considering the background and concept.
Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 3:07:03 PM)
I would prefer if you got rid of two of those. for now. Its a lot of restricted things and it would make for an easier case. personally I'd drop avatar to 3 and get rid of hypertech, but I'm not going to tell you what to change. look its mainly for my peace of mind, if you want to keep it all as is, thats fine but you're going to have to talk to SC directly.
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 3:07:24 PM)
Well, wouldn't I have to do that anyway?
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 3:07:30 PM)
You only presanction, right?
Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 3:07:37 PM)
true
Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 3:08:21 PM)
we can do something about the dots.
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 3:08:29 PM)
Alright.
Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 3:08:46 PM)
you are overspent... apprentice 3 is gone, or at the least you can't get points for it
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 3:10:21 PM)
If you'd leave the Apprentice, since that's going to be a PC as well played by another playah.
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 3:10:50 PM)
How much am I overspent?
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 3:11:05 PM)
3 from no adversarial backgrounds granting points?
Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 3:12:14 PM)
I'm seeing 8 to arete, 2 to wp, 9 to backgrounds. Now getting rid of mansion, you'll have 17 freebies, verses the 19 spent... I see you over by 2, wait how is that right
Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 3:12:23 PM)
gimme a sec
Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 3:13:38 PM)
hmmm seems to work out
Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 3:13:46 PM)
you could drop the wp and be fine
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 3:16:45 PM)
Well. let's see.
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 3:18:00 PM)
Drop one of the lieutenants(retainers), and willpower by 1
Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 3:18:09 PM)

Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 3:18:10 PM)

Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 3:20:54 PM)

Magnus T. Hollowhart Esq. (Dec 28, 2010 3:21:54 PM)
Anything else Mr Bendy?
Bendy (Dec 28, 2010 3:22:11 PM)
