I suppose I should have mentioned that I will be running this as GURPS 4th edition. Most supplements are still mostly fine, the big difference lies in point values for things in character creation, I think. That and some stuff that was supplemental before made it into the core book.

So, as a for instance, if I wanted to create a character whose race is based on one of the Fantasy Folk races with a few spells from the Magic book, and with an Advantage, Skill, or Maneuver or two from GURPS Compendium I; I would need you to approve and double check my math?

Yeah. Most of the time, the differences aren't major.

Just to make sure everyone is aware, if this is going to be light-hearted sci-fi, Doctor Who references are fair game!

That's cool.  

I'm thinking of making one of my quirks:  Occasionally makes a Captain Jack-type remark.

I'm working from memory, so this is more a paraphrase than a quoote:

Captain Jack:  Who's the hottie?
Gwen:  That's a poodle!

[Ninja D!]

That's fine by me.

Hitchiker's Guide References are also fair game.

Once again, TV Tropes has shown me my error

It was a Captain John line, Captain John being Captain Jack's former partner.

Capt. John: [eager] Oh, that's gorgeous!!!
Gwen: That's a poodle.

[Ninja D!]

I don't remember that exact line at all but it's well in the spirit of both of them. Of course, it's probably been a good year since I watched most of Torchwood.

I'm guessing that the internet connection khyron had at home for a while there is now gone again, since I haven't heard from him in a while. I will be building Kindling's character, as well as some NPCs probably this weekend. Hopefully we can get going by the end of the week. Sound good?

[Ninja D!]

I decided this morning on what the "adventure" will be. Just the detail work now.

[Ninja D!]

The characters I'm making (PC and NPC alike) will be ready soon and I have a plot / objective / whatever planned. Will people be ready to start soon?

[Kindling]

Sure.
