[TSOY] Two Elves in a more "traditional" Party, ugh
dindenver:
Eero,
I used my lifepath system I created. It worked wel, gave me great inside into the character's past.
Honestly, I am trying to go with the flow and get excited about the concept. It just concerns me when I get the runaround when i ask a question. They tell me that thy have a well defined concept, but when I ask for details, I don't seem to be getting a straight answer.
OK, so nothing in the rules is broken by two elves. So, I'll stop worrying about that and concentrate on our communication.
Thanks guys!

It is an interesting but complex outset that relieves you of the necessity to put other elven SGCs into play, as you will get all of elfhood out of these two in contrast and reflection. Big win, I would say, but with the same caveats as Eero.
If these players like a challenge, give them situations may just develop into either perpetual suffering or in one (or both) characters giving up elfhood… how that would be possible is highly dependent on campaign scope and player peculiarities and something you might only find out by riding the shockwave of two elves in/as one group.
Eero Tuovinen:
(Did you look at the character sheets? I love how only one of them has the Secret of the Polymath. Perhaps the other is too young? I also adore how the initial idea of mirror couple has the potential to turn into a dysfunctional elven romance - how else would an elf understand love?)
It's the party structure that worries me a lot more than having two elven characters, really. Elves are difficult for parties, obviously enough. So stay on your feet, and if I were you, I'd be open to the party exploding to different directions if the players feel like going that way.
dindenver:
All,
OK, so last night went well. Only one elf player showed up. But the one I was most worried about is the one that showed. Despite a high minded concept and making an assassin, he worked and played well with the group and the setting. He scored 8 xps last night and he was really trying to work his keys and still click with the group. It was fun.
I guess for clarity, we have 4 players and a SG now. I am a little worried about the chatter on skype with 5 players, but with 4 it was manageable.
I'll keep you posted.
