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.

Hello Kitty! It's Meggie, it's exciting you're here!!

Gideon and John have a complicated relationship, but aside from that I think he might get on well with Ophelia, especially since they'd both be very content not talking about the past. He's also an atheist and is very fond of the local cat colony. He tries to keep himself in shape but watching Ophelia run laps makes him feel his age.

ophelia ALSO has a complicated relationship with john so she won't even hold it against gideon probably so i'm gonna go ahead and say they get on just fine? i think she has a lot of respect for him as an alderman, even if she doesn't always agree with their choices ultimately.

sorry for the reminder of aging but at least it's rainy enough most of the year she probably only gets her runs in like 1/4 of the year.

He holds a lot of guilt/regret for not pushing harder to get outside help during the flu, and knows Ophelia's stance on that. How poorly it went is at least a few grains of sand pushing him towards Lundegaard being more open

Ah yes the slow Ophelia seasons

Re: kitty's concept(s)

i think if she could tell his feelings regarding that shifted/his guilt at all, that's ultimately what seals the respect end (as opposed to her strongly disliking roswell at this point in time?) i don't know how apparent that would have been to her though, but if she can tell at all or they've talked about it or something, she wouldn't hold it against him by now
