thessalianWell, I've found a solution to my Hollow City woes: apply somewhere else. Oh, I'll stick around Hollow City for awhile, see how things progress, but I've decided to bog off and join Charleston by Night as well. Best part? They allow Mages. Woo. Fucking. Hoo.
So now, provided all is accepted, I am playing Nina Gordon, a young Arete 1 Dreamspeaker (I could have been Arete 2 but it'd be nice to have my first Seeking sooner rather than later and the concept works with it) who's sort of the unholy bastard spawn of John Constantine and Violet Grimm. Everything has a spirit, and she talks to 'em all, and her magical stylings sort of fluctuate between voodoo, Wicca, shamanism (Avatar is a Hare spirit guide), chaos magic and "it seemed like a good idea at the time". Raised by religious conservatives, no less, former med student. And thank you, my first serious character without the Caregiver nature! This time, I am Visionary (well, what did you expect? Autocrat?), with a Loner demeanour. Manipulative and clever, so I stand in doorways and bluff people. Provided I get accepted, this could be fun. Now, I could post right now this minute if I didn't use any of my attributes and so on (they have Auto Acceptance guidelines, which I followed), but I'm not going to because I want to have a look around first. I've already 'met' two Brits and another Dreamspeaker from my intro post, so I have a place to start.
And yeah, that's how I spent my day; tweaking and retweaking a brand spanking new Mage. Oh, and sending reminder letters. Lots and lots of reminder letters. One day I will hunt down the reviewers and beat them with sticks.
