Player Rules-and Etiquette V20

 

What I want to see:

I want to see your blood pool go down over the course of each scene. I want to see you replenish that, get out your tome, y'all! Game on! As we have since this players guide edition came out, we will be rolling V20.  For all of you non-members of this chronicle, just so you know, we are not power players. We are simply nostalgic! 

Immediately you roll one d10 for your beginning blood pool or hunger. Subtract one for waking up each evening.

I want to see you act out the dirty parts of being a vampire, or Kindred as is their proper name. You go hunt and feed at the beginning of each scene, 

 or I will put you in a state of torpor. Master Storyteller wins. 

I want to see proper chat room etiquette for the simple fact that editing is hard anyway and I will put most of the story in blog form. 

Keep it to a maximum of three colons at the beginning and ending of each action. Please remember to type (d) when you're completely done with your turn. Do not get excited and type it early for the sake of others who might be watching the role play so they will not be confused, also so we will not be confused in our actions and reactions and character. 

I want to see you act out your character sheet and not what you personally feel. The character traits are important. They should be applied to each scene. Whatever you want to do in character can be manipulated to stay within the character's basic personality. If you want to change their traits or personality after you've submitted your character sheet to me, then you must act that out in play and do it enough that the character learns in game new traits, or to subtract old traits. The basic nature of a character will never change unless they are mortal and transform into a werewolf or are newly embraced as a vampire from a mortal state.

In chat gameplay please allow each player to get through the actions and story additions, including speech, of all of their playable characters before taking your next turn.

Please allow the MST to do scene setting and narrations throughout the game not just at the beginning of the game. Please do not start your character turn until after each scene is set and I type "----IC----".
