Sooo a while back I put in a little bit of a request with our alien overlord hosts. And shockingly enough it not only came through, it was actually what I asked for! Crazy right? Turns out good things happen to not-so-great people after all, which, obviously I don't mean me. I'm amazing.

Anyway what I got was this really awesome game from back home called "Bunkers & Badasses". So awesome in fact that there's still a copy of it even after the universe was destroyed which I feel is pretty indicative of the sheer levels of awesomeness we're dealing with here.

I don't know if any of you guys had tabletop back home but basically you create a character by choosing your fantasy race and class, and then you go on adventures and roll a bunch of dice! Bunker Teams are best in groups of four but being the utterly amazing Bunker Master I am, I'm willing to accommodate anyone who's interested in playing through a short campaign or two. The rules aren't too hard and making a character is easy.

I'm thinking maybe in the next two weeks or so? Let me know if you're interested or have any questions.

Technically that kind of thing exists? But you won't be able to actually see into the future a whole lot at level one. You'd have to get up to about ten or so before you could call on a deity's power to guide you like that. Seeing into the future's pretty OP.

[granularity]

You'd think that.

But I don't mind a slow build. Does this system support multiclassing?

[rhygret]

Whoa you actually know about that? Heh! Cool yeah if you're familiar with it then go ahead for sure. You guys should hit level two before the end of the campaign no problem.

[granularity]

I played a lot of boardgames. I understand the ideas around it in practice and I've read some books so combine the two and I think I should be all right.

Then I think I'll start off with some manner of Gunslinging or Fighter class and work my way in. Sound all right for the campaign you're running?

[rhygret]

Totally. It looks like we're going to have a couple of mages so a few physical fighters would be really good. We don't need a balanced party necessarily but it's always a good idea. Gunslingers are pretty bad ass at later levels too.

[granularity]

Sounds good to me.

Sand, incidentally.

[rhygret]

Sand????

[granularity]

My name.

Sanderson. Or Sandy.

[rhygret]

Ohhh your character's name. Or wait your name? Which one is it?

[granularity]

My name.

I haven't figured out my character's name yet.

[rhygret]

Just checking. But wait really? You name's "Sandman"? For real?

[granularity]

My name's Sanderson. And I go by Sand. But there's been times where I've gone by Sandman.

[rhygret]

Ohhh okay that makes a little more sense. Is Sandman like, a funny nickname or something?

[granularity]

Professional moniker/Code name.

Also I'm technically a silicon-based life form so

6 of one, as they say.

[rhygret]

Silicon?? How does that even work? Do you look...like not to sound rude or whatever but I've never met anyone who wasn't carbon-based? Do you look human??

switch to video

[ When the video starts, there's the usual shuffle as someone pulls the device away from where they'd been typing, and it reveals a blond guy with a bright enough smile and what looks like a set of slowly receeding racoon eyes. ...in the sense that he didn't sleep much. His face actually is pretty normal. ]

I dunno. I mean, you decide. I don't look at me that often.

still text;

[rhygret]

[ Oh. He's....surprisingly normal? Rhys isn't sure what he expected, but for him to just look like a guy certainly wasn't it. It's a little anticlimactic? But he thinks better of saying anything along those lines. ]

You look like any other guy I'd see back home. That's pretty cool?

back to text

[granularity]

[ The answer returns to the written word. He's better that way. ]

I mean, it's better than being a lumbering stone monster, yeah, agreed.

[rhygret]

For sure. That would definitely make parties more awkward. Dates too.

[granularity]

Never tried dating at that stage of the game. But you're not wrong.
