Pre-Game Chatter Post

Hi everybody! I am so pleased and excited to welcome you all to State of Decay. This game has been a longtime labor of love for me, and I cannot wait to see what stories you all tell in the world I've curated for you.

While I will largely be running this game like the other collaborative journal games I know you all from, I'm also trying out some new things. Please anticipate a few growing pains as we try stuff, sort things out, and figure out what works. I am always looking for feedback & suggestions for improvement on how to streamline and organize things, so feel free to drop me a line if you have comments or suggestions. Thanks for bearing with me as I get my feet on the ground!

This game is currently closed to new players. Please don't hold, join our Discord, or comment on this post unless you've already been invited to join us.

Re: Other NPC discussion

short answer: yes, we can work something like this out for sure

longer answer: my original intention was that the direct family positions for these characters would be open for PCs to fill (i'm also willing to futz their biographical information if anyone would like to do this but already has a character concept/name in mind), so this will be partially dependent on if anyone is interested in filling these roles with PCs.

if you'd be open extending this concept to other members of the flume/keaton family like siblings/hank's children/etc i'm sure we can work this or a similar dynamic for john out, though! i doubt every member of both family is going to end up as a PC (although i would be deeply delighted if someone wants to play a 60 year old ranch wife lady tbh)

Oh, ok! I’m open to whatever but I’ll wait and see what ends up happening with this family and see what folks are interested in/what makes sense at that point—this is probably the least important relationship to establish for Flume/Keaton PCs.
