BIT Discussion

I believe we have some Bitscussioning to do! When we parted ways, we were trying to think up one new Belief apiece for both Jack and the Duchess. Lady Anna and Sir Oliver also need some BITs! BITs BITs BITs!

Anyone have anything new to add?

So I'll start: The Duchess doesn't have a Belief about Jack. How does the Duchess actually feel about Jack, and how do we work that into a Belief? Does she feel strongly enough about him to codify it into a Belief?

I loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooove BITs discussions!

Starting with the Duchess, I think that Jenna is the best individual to invite feedback from on the matter. However, I do not know how consistently we'll be able to get her input up here, since her online connectedness is still questionable.

I think you just want to find out what the Duchess thinks about Jack! Maybe it would be best explored in-game.

TheJenna said...

She it totally cautiously into him. However, she doesn't really consider him an option on account of, he can't really even feed himself and he's weirdly obsessed with killing Gerald. Maybe she should ask him to give up killing him and return with her to Not-France! What drama!

By the by, have you heard what The Dutchess is actually about? It's about this Dutchess who is caught in an unhappy marriage, and in love with a guy who is totally way too poor to support her lifestyle, so she has to choose between an unhappy marriage and wealth, or true love an poverty.

Get it? It's like the same thing! Sort of.

I really do not know what Jack would do if the Duchess asked him to forget his revenge quest! That would certainly create a dramatic, and potentially Artha rich, situation.

As it is, I understand how cautiously into him she is, but is it strong enough to warrant a Belief? Or is it something that can be subsumed into other Beliefs about her reluctance to live as Prince Gerard's puppet or her hidden desires for freedom and happiness?

TheJenna said...

I think maybe it will evolve into a Belief when she finally accepts it. Right now she's in denial, trying to suppress the feelings because they make things so impossibly complicated.

Once she comes to terms with it, then it might make it to full belief.

However, that still leaves the Dutchess in need of a belief.

Tertullian said...

What are her current Beliefs?

Lurkermeyer said...

Are they different from the ones on her character sheet on the blog? That makes things more complicated!

TheJenna said...

I don't have me sheet here with me! And we did change a few of the beliefs during the last game. Maybe all of them? Gosh, I don't recall.

Lurkermeyer said...

Hell, we might have changed all of them. It really would be best if we had them all laid out.

Tertullian said...

Yeah, I didn't update anyone's sheet but my own, as I did not have access to any of them.
