Yesterday upon the stair

Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn’t there
He wasn’t there again today
I wish, I wish he’d go away...
Hughes Mearns
It's a Chinese curse:  May you live in interesting times.  I often wondered about that, but now I know.  Ignorance is truly bliss and I wonder if I'll ever be able to go back to being ignorant.  Or blissful.  Or, for that matter, go back at all.

Three years have passed since the dinner.  Three years since I came into contact with the Phoenix Foundation.  Is it only three years?

Race Day

It has no beginning, it has no real end
It's got its own style
You never seem to get any closer to the horizon
It just goes on and on and on forever

Begin transmission.

I don't know how much time I'll have before this transmission is interrupted.  I have been a little remiss with Slainte Mhath over the last week.  I will have more time tonight to get both threads of that game back on track.  Looking forward to starting up the second thread (A Night at the Opera) - there's still time to get a character in there if anyone's interested.

Deliria Character Creation

Tagged:

A quick precis of the Character Creation section from the Deliria core rules:

A Twist of Strangeness

The greatest heroes are ordinary people doing extraordinary things.  Faerie tale tradition recognizes this fact:  "the most beautiful princess in the world" is still just a girl, not a killing machine who races griffins in her spare time.
And so, in that tradition, start with an everyday concept when you craft your character; think bank-teller, not vamp-elven battle cyborg.  From there, twist that concept ever-so-slightly until you have the makings of a mortal hero; the bank-teller can read auras, and one day she spots someone who doesn't seem quite human...
(Deliria core, p224)
