Absolutely you can :) As far as I know you can be anything you want, even if it is a semi immortal weasel anthro with a drinking problem and obsidian claws :D Would you want to be the team mage/magic user or the team theif/lockpick type?

muahahaha I knew you were kindred XD

dimples I did not think you notice. muahahahah

ok time to make the dinner :* Ahl be back, probably.

What a relief! May I be the team mage then, unless anyone else wants it?

I also have back-up characters, just in case the situation calls for it -- the human thief I mentioned, and a tiger anthro (Khajiit) that just uses brute force for everything.. though I'm not sure how they'd work out, haha.

I'm very unclear on the roles. I'd probably be the bard, but not sure what that means. XD Halp!

bards depend on musical instruments, maybe some poetry. as long as your writting skills are up for it then it's a good role.

sometimes the bard acts as the thief as well so you'll have ability like pick-pocketing and picking locks.

not sure if they have the thief as a separate class they didn't in year 1

if no one wants warrior I'll take it though, I shall be your knight in transparent armour MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

For the sake of my sanity, would someone please list the roles and typical attributes of each? points to newbie badge

if my memory is correct these are the roles

  1. Mage :- magic user, mostly gets puzzles and quizzes
  2. Alchemist :- potion creater, mostly gets word play, and quizzes sometimes
  3. Ranger :- bow + arrow or cross bow, I forget what he gets...
  4. Bard :- Music + thief, gets write ups and sometimes math problems
  5. warrior : sword user, battle write ups mostly.

this is how it was in WS 1. now Green might spice it up a bit but generally we all have to stick to our persona. if you are a mage for example don't suddenly pull out a sword and start hacking, use your magic and your head to get through.

bard is the most flexible of all, he is pretty much the joker in the deck.

I guess I'd better go read through one of the WS2 chapters to see what it's like since I don't understand some of the words/phrases you just used. :P Thanks

I did a little digging and found the classes for WS2, I'll post them here for reference.

Quote by [url=http://subeta.net/forums.php/read/7372
WS2 Advance Planning thread link[/url]]Classes</p>
<p>A) Warriors--for those who want to open locked doors by kicking them in and the like. Lots of physical strength here, and not easily frightened. They may have a few spells handy, but nothing heavy duty. Besides, nothing tops a big. shiny sword. Might is right, tyvm. Through the portal, adds:
Privateer--Just don&;t call them pirates! Okay, they are if you need that airship grabbed, but they can do firearms, rapiers, cannons, and just throw a knockout punch if anyone gets unreasonable. Got your back!
B) Magic Users--Got a spell for that? These folks do, and they come in all sorts of specialties. They are handy at making things a lot easier and conjuring up needful items. Fire, Ice, or Alohomora? Why, yes, indeed! Through the portal adds:
Technomancer--When your fireball fizzles, surely you can enchant a machine to do it for you. Or divert the energy in those coils into lightning, greased or not. Gimme that sonic whip!
C) Rangers--Even the trees love this character! Critters will lick their wounds clean and plants will bind them with sap. They&;re graceful and light footed as well, and know a bunch about nature. They&;re also hot with arrows. Through the portal, adds:
Aeronaut--Airship is no good if someone can&;t fly it through anything, get you where you need to go with expert navigation, and doesn&;t need a compass if there are stars. No, not the ones from the punch your Privateer landed, real ones. Oh, and they&;re great with steamcars and trains, too. First star to the right.....
D)Bards--How charming are these characters? Very, and handy at getting folks to cooperate. They can usually sing or play, and they&;re great storytellers. Okay, so they can also sneak around in shadows and pick locks, but who&;s perfect? Through the portal, adds
Troubadour--The bard on steroids: lots of social grace, the etiquette needed to navigate aristocratic gatherings, waltz in ballrooms,sing torch songs in a bistro, and generally charm the pants off of anyone--perhaps, literally---you never know...
E) Alchemist--Need healing? Got a heavy puzzle to solve or a formula to make? Lost in a maze without a map? Here are your folks. No challenge too great. They truly are legends in their own minds, and sometimes everyone else&;s. Through the portal adds:
Professor--Excellent in Chemistry, Vehicle Construction, History and Research. Not too fond of battle, but can blow out a door in that titanium wall. Ka--boom!
F)Vagabond-sort of a Jack/Jill of all trades. Within the realm of the Squirrel, not much technical expertise comes with this, but it does have quite a MacGyver factor. If you don&;t know who MacGyver is--well--you&;re waaaayy young. Call your Mom before you leave. She worries. Through the portal, adds:
Polymath--Yep, just like the scientific definition. Knows something about everything, but isn&;t an expert in anything. Does come equipped with a Sonic Screwdriver, though. If you don&;t know what that means, ask one of the many Doctor Who fans playing. (Also has a rather special item if the team completes all previews. )

I think I'll also refrain from deciding on a class for now, and see what everyone would like to choose first since this is my first time (I knew there would be task delegations to certain classes - I just didn't think it was that specific). The one class I don't trust myself with is an alchemist, though ><

Is there one you are leaning toward? And don't fret toooo much, you can rely on your team mates to help you on specifics. Except secret missions XD secret missions you have to do yourself. But if you'd like to use your theif for example, bard would be good, but if you wanna do brute strength, the warrior class Keep in mind those classes are dual. Through the portal in WS2, the bard became a troubador, the Alchamest became a professor.

I can do any class really so I'll hold off until folk have their pick :)

Ire, there is no hurry to pick a class, go with the one that is closer to what you like.

want to play mind games? the magical classes are best showcase your smarts? Alchamist is best steam roll everyone with brute strength! warrior is for you

and so on, I think green mentioned there will be no pre-event this year so I guess no secert missions. used to be we had to pick 2 months on advance and on secret missions your character had to solve the puzzle/battle...etc on his/her own.

Kaiidth, welcome! it's nice to have you! we are deciding on a team name, do you like Midnight Dancer or do you have another preference *wonder if people can tell I'm gunning for that one XD *

also if you have any suggestions we'd love to hear them!

AAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNDDDDDDDDD DOOOOOOONNNNNNNEEEEEE!!!!!

obviously will be edited if we decided on a different theme or name ^^;

I just felt like doodling a bit lol

Thanks that's very helpful. Adding to first post.

I am extremely musical, but somehow bard doesn't call to me. Especially if writing will be the main focus. I can write a song or a poem, but I'm not the best storyteller. And charm to the max is definitely not me.

Maybe Alchemist. I'm not great with history or mechanics, but maybe I can bluff my way through? I like puzzles, chemistry and math are ok.

Takes me too long to make these posts. LOL three more added since I started trying to figure out what to say.

she's GORGEOUS.

Any objections to Midnight Dancers as our team name? Though I may make the ping "purple" just to please someone....nobody in particular though 😉

bard needs charm, grace and a dash of sneakiness.

Jess to me it sounds like you are leaning more towards Mage / alchamist. both end up with puzzles but alchamist is more word play.

glad you liked her :D

I'm happy the team decided on the name. for some reason I got inspired by it ^^;

.... she knows you already lol
