Things we need!

1] game name! because dapperpunk doesn't fit it now... I don't think.

2] journals for
- modbizness (personal journal) - if each mod has one that's good too
- info comm (comm for fact sheets for characters)
- ooc comm (for ooc-ing)
- dr comm (for practicing, developing history with existing casts, testing out your version of the character)
- game comm (I kind of want logs and network/comm devices in the same comm. no splitting it up, because things get missed, etc. we can just tag things #text, #phone call, @journal, * action, * prose ... etc.)
- meme/spam comm (for polyvore)
- Mod Plurk Account

3] gods and honoring them

- how to honor/follow
- all about faking it
- all about not believing in any of it
- link: Sorting the Gods - sort the greeks into easier to maintain groups, so that it's not a billion gods, but still try to give each one their own personal perk, but the group have the same. So like all the war-based/fighting-ones are in a group, but you can pick a specific one and get a specific bonus.
- decide if we need to sort the egyptian ones or not and if there are bonuses for that or not

4] WORLD BUILDING STUFF
- maps (by odell)
- housing options (so that people can't just have "instant mansion because they want their whole cast living together")
- underground vs aboveground
- transportation methods
- monetary system
- employment options (player owned businesses, etc)
- landscape, animals, weather/climate

5] Mod-type stuffs

- app
- dropped character app
- dropped character app - sponsor request
- reserve
- taken
- drop/hiatus
- plot/event suggestions & requests
- player owned businesses
- npc owned businesses
- list of NPCs!
- general 10 commandments page (no godmodding, no being mean)
- rules on death link: Death Clarification, pregnancy, violence, magic - all the weird things
- faq
+ info on the premise
+ all that how does this work stuff
+ helpful tips on how to AU your character
+ helpful tips on how to keep your anime/troll/robot traits when adapting them to the world and what cases don't require a change.
- info on the AC (because I hate it when the AC info is like hidden into other posts)
+ AC will be a summation of character events. Tell us what your character has been doing for the past month and provide at least 2 links to prove that it's not all implied. Links must be either your own post, 5+ of your consecutive replies in a [bracket] post, or 2+ of your own consecutive replies in a prose post.

    HOUSE PLOTTING

    suggest houses here and we'll pick through them all to find out groups etc.

    These are just thinking on needed things:

  • Agriculture - farming, fishing, cooks/restaurants, anything related to food.
  • Medical - general practitioners, hospitals, specialists.
  • Government/Municipalities - politics, post office, city maintenance
  • Knowledge/Academics - teachers/professors, researchers, artists(?)
  • Military - soldiers, law enforcement, etc.

    There are probably more, but that's at least a start?

    Do we want to combine violence/war with military/law enforcement?
    huntersdaughter: (Default)

    [personal profile] huntersdaughter 2012-02-23 09:18 pm (UTC)(link)
    I'm not sure - because I want the violent types and villains to be under a different house from the good guys, ya know?

    Like I don't want them to be partnered in the same group, just for future plots and such. I'd like to keep them off to the side.

    Maybe pair violence with chaos and that sort of area? Like violence/chaos/massacre/disease?

    [personal profile] iluvroadrunner6 2012-02-23 09:22 pm (UTC)(link)
    That works. So we can have the "practical" houses, and the more "idealistic" houses.

    So combined so far we have:

  • Agriculture
  • Medical
  • Government/Municipalities
  • Knowledge/Academics
  • Military
  • Violence/Chaos
  • Love/Procreation

    [personal profile] huntersdaughter 2012-02-23 09:27 pm (UTC)(link)
    Do we want to keep Agriculture and then have a second one with the elements? Because Agriculture is just food and such.
    iluvroadrunner6: ([spn] gabriel/kali)

    [personal profile] iluvroadrunner6 2012-02-23 09:28 pm (UTC)(link)
    Yeah, that works. There can be more of a "nature" aspect that's separate.

    For all the hippies. :|

    Okay let me add these into the main list.

    Also, journalists will probably fall under "Knowledge" to a certain degree.

    HOUSE PLOTTING: Gods

    [personal profile] iluvroadrunner6 2012-02-23 09:53 pm (UTC)(link)
    Aphrodite - love, beauty and desire
    Apollo - music, healing, plague, prophecies, poetry, and archery; associated with light, truth and the sun
    Ares - war, bloodlust, violence, manly courage, and civil order
    Artemis - the hunt, wilderness, animals, young girls, childbirth and plague
    Athena - wisdom, warfare, battle strategy, heroic endeavour, handicrafts and reason
    Demeter - agriculture, horticulture, grain and harvest
    Dionysus - wine, parties and festivals, madness, drunkenness and pleasure at forever young
    Hades - the dead and the hidden wealth of the Earth
    Hephaestus - fire, metalworking, stonemasonry, sculpture and volcanism
    Hera - marriage, women, childbirth, heirs, kings and empires
    Hermes - travel, messengers, trade, thievery, cunning wiles, language, writing, diplomacy, athletics, and animal husbandry
    Hestia - the hearth, home and cooking
    Poseidon - the sea, rivers, floods, droughts, earthquakes, and the creator of horses
    Zeus - the sky, weather, thunder, lightning, law, order, and fate

    Those are the major twelve for the Greeks, and we can always pull in more to pull in under them for more specific things. Also, do we want there to be a "main" god for each house, or do they all sort of share power?
    huntersdaughter: (Default)

    [personal profile] huntersdaughter 2012-02-23 09:58 pm (UTC)(link)
    I think we should have a main god, just to be the spokesperson for the house, but I don't want them to all be led by the main 12 either. Like they should be in there, but I'd rather have lesser known gods in there too that are the heads of the houses, because like - there are already a few games that circle around the main 12 gods.

    the Main 12 can be in the houses to give people an easier time picking and associating, but I think not spotlighting all of them, especially when we've broken it into 8 groups vs 12 would be good. Like Demeter is a definite fit for Agriculture, but Hera and Aphrodite both fit into that love and Procreation part.

    I think it'd be good to sort them and then see about NPCs for the groups and make sure that the NPC that is picked is the one that is the leader.

    That works for me. Do you still want the NPCs to be actual deities mentioned in their mythos, or are they going to be completely new characters -- like the "high priest/priestess" or whatever.
    huntersdaughter: (Default)

    [personal profile] huntersdaughter 2012-02-23 10:05 pm (UTC)(link)
    I think they'll be the actual deities mentioned in the mythos just taking mortal forms and brought down to the city to deal with their followers etc.

    Probably. LOL

    I want to make sure it matches up to whatever Odell wants with her Egyptian stuff too.

    /nods Makes sense. Because for like -- Chaos we can do Eris and Medical we can do Paeon, etc. etc.
    huntersdaughter: (Default)

    [personal profile] huntersdaughter 2012-02-23 10:51 pm (UTC)(link)
    LOL I would PB Eris with Hudson Leick.

    Pulling from my lesser god reference materials:

    Agriculture - Demeter
    Medical - Asclepius
    Government/Municipalities - Themis & Dike (two of the muses)
    Knowledge/Academics - Metis
    Military - Athene (not Athena)
    Violence/Chaos - Nemesis & Aidos
    Love/Procreation - Eros, Pan
    likely_evil: (Fun - Dork Dance)

    Also, Hypnos has a son, Icelus, that is the god of nightmares. He's basically like River Tam in my head. I love him, and I call dibs. He would probably be in the Chaos house.
