The Manor Is Not Enough - Maid RPG DISCUSSION

Plus, there is a ready-made short term plot for His Supreme Darkness's maids: the Master's Birthday Party!

Of course, another option is that His Supreme Darkness or whatever antagonist figure the other maids work for conveniently lives in the manor next door/across the street, allowing for relatively free interaction when it would be amusing and isolation when it would not...

I just thought of something.

Hitsugi is supposed to be double Pure maid type, but the only time that I've seen her act like it is in the bath with Kyla.

Another thing, with her Athletics and Will of 1, Olivia seems to be a Faux Action Girl. I guess her cybernetics don't really agree with her.

The double-pure type is a bit harder to get across when she also has a perpetual Bad Expression; 'maidenly' is somewhat subjective, so i've tried to get Hitsugi to come across as proper, conservative, polite and friendly, but i suppose i haven't really been trying to make her seem 'fragile,' like someone a Manly Man would want to protect; it doesn't help that she isn't exactly on great terms with Dan -_-;...

It's a rough situation.

Olivia's Sexy and Pure, but, err, her cybernetics obscure that.

Expect more eatin of phallic foods and accidental double entendres later.

There's a trope for that.

Anyway, I think I'll give Bombadillo a chance to post again before I have Kyla and Junko come in.

I'm not surprised.

Junko's not there yet...

Ok, created a thread for His Supreme Darkness.

By the way, 'Drolphy Mansion' is an anagram of 'In Spyhold Manor'

That doesn't mean one is inside the other, I just needed to add the 'in' to be able to spell 'Mansion'.

Will there be mansion and master stats for His Supreme Darkness? It would be kind of amusing if he were just a regular, somewhat pathetic, easily stressed master (unlike his Arch-Enemy)...

You have to forgive me. I'm new at the play-by-post type of role-playing. Of course, not being a fast typer and continuously trying to make sure what I want to post is not helping.

I also issue apologies as I'm new to Maid RPG's but I am currently involved in play-by-posts. :/

GM approved attack. :P

I can use random.org, yes? Or should I use invisiblecastle?

Also can rolling for favour from before - 4

My starting favour was... 2, I think.

There seem to be some things missing from His Supreme Darkness's character sheet. Stress Explosion? Favorite Maid Type?

Oops. Favorite maid type: Cool. Stress explosion: same as Dan, he acts like a spoiled child.

Stolen: Either way is fine, or you can even just roll a real-world plastic die.

Oh cool!

Uh, I rolled for favour from earlier and got a 4. So is my total favour 6 since I started with 2?

Keep track of your favor, there are ways you can use favor to get advantages to rolls and trigger special actions.

Thanks for waiting for me to post, Flash of Sonic! It's nice to not have to dig through four pages of new stuff like other R Ps I've been in.

I get close to having to do that occasionally -_-;

Is that Flandre in your icon, Stolen?

Note: it's actually possible to get Lethal Chef as a technique in Maid. It's Item 124, Chef of Destruction, and gives you 'Cooking' as a terrible weapon that doesn't allow division by attribute when calculating stress - though you also lose 1D6-2D6 favor whenever you try to cook in a non-lethal fashion.

D'oh! You're right. I've edited that post so Tammy is instead slower in fixing food (which is a bit more justifiable with Skill of 1).

Still, she's sure off on the right foot, isn't she?

Eh, i didn't mean that you should change the post, necessarily; just a tidbit of amusing information. I think Tammy's doing fine; compared to some of the Noodle Incidents and other weirdness we already have floating around, she's actually pretty tame -_-;...
