Hey guys, what do you think of my character (Circuit) so far? I think he's
been a bit too obnoxious...he really isn't like that. I guess for my first
few posts on the list, i screwed up. Looks like i have to build my rep back up.

IMHO, too few posts to make an informed opinion as of this point. Keep
it coming.

Yep..i was thinking of proclaiming that i had some great data i found, and
that it would endanger someone on the list..blah blah. Might work, might
even be good!

Getting invovled in the ongoing plots can be hard at first...Espiaclly
with the Maxim plot line taking up a lot of the non lurkers...But that's
winding up, so I wouldn't worry too much about getting your chars involved...

If you can't do anything else talk to some of the other people on the
list privately about doing something with their chars...When I was on
this list a couple of years ago my first plot involved having an anti-
metahuman terrorist (doubt anyone remembers Sword of God though)
threaten some of Nightfox's chars (CRUSH and Spirit)...This was pretty
easy for me to do since I go to school with Dan...

After that it wasn't too hard getting my chars involved in plot lines
(Father Brian Grant got involved in a Europeon run against some weirdo
magic types who tried to kill the pope and Scorpion go involved in a run
against a powerful and evil free spirit...)

So I wouldn't worry too much...Eventually you'll get involved in plot
lines...No matter how big a jerk you think your character acted...
