Moving along to my experience.
As stated above, I have been playing Mage predominately for the past three years, recently expanding to Werewolf and then Changeling. I know the feel of the World of Darkness, and I know I can instill that sense of urgency that is critical to the Werewolf sphere.
I have four years of experience running games as a Game Master, including, but not limited to, Dungeons and Dragons, Dark Heresy, Rogue Trader, Exalted, and forum Play-by-Post. My mediums have predominately been table top and instant messenger.
My Staff
As HST, I will be bringing in the following ASTs and Staff Members
AST Tim Gracie
AST Kyle Johnson
I will be retaining Juliana as my "Paper Platypus", and as a Spirit Narrator
As far as what I bring in, what kind of stories I tell, well, nothing ever happens by coincidence. For every action, there is an equal or opposite reaction, and just because you don't see something anymore, doesn't mean it's gone. There are many loose threads dangling off the plot, and those loose threads tend to get tangled (not a jab at current staff. They're doing great). Loose threads from staff changes, or people simply dropping the ball and forgetting about it. The demons of the past will stir, and new enemies on the horizon will reveal themselves. Garou may forget, but Gaia does not.
In terms of what I bring in for system, I'll be taking a good look at Fetish system, as well the renown system. My STs and I will be discussing tweaks we can make to balance things out.
Now, for the questions I know I'll get:
Why didn't I come forward sooner? Why didn't I announce this at game? Why the suspense? Why keep us in the dark?
Simply put, I wasn't prepared to make my move. I was still finalizing my staff and planning things out.
Am I going to reset the sphere?
Probably not. Even if our Super Friends Pack fails, there will still be a way to hold off the apocalypse.
Wait! Don't you work for Boeing? Don't they make you work the dreaded overtime?
Never underestimate human greed. There are others whom I can convince to take my OT.
Please, feel free to ask any other questions. I would also ask my staff to post anything they have to say regarding their credentials. Thank you for taking the time to read my thread. I'll see you all at the camping trip.
tl;dr Dave lost his mind and decided to run for HST, Kyle and Tim, half mad as they are, decided to be his ASTs
As stated, I am politely bowing out of the running. Why? Because Sarah and Chloe are running and both asked me to be on their staff. I personally feel it would be detrimental to game to cut my teeth on being an HST without first being an AST to get a feel for the role.
