    And? Just because you shoot and kill a lot don't mean you don't have need for social skills, especially if you are Lewis and Clark-ing or Conquistador-ing across new territory. I did not mean that I was against combat character, just the choice of only creating combat only characters.

    The character does have social skills, they're not abstracted on a spreadsheet.

    Out of curiosity, any other HP Lovecraft fans here? And if so, anyone else planning on going to NecronomiCon Providence this August?

    I'll be on the continent so I was considering going, but unfortunately it'll clash with fieldwork. Alas, only DragonCon for me this year.

    I would be totally okay with a direct riff on the Tenzin and Korra situation. Totally, totally okay with it.

    Says the guy building an empire. ;)

    We're both typecast, lol. I wish I could do something like a constitutional monarchy. That would be fun!

    Probably can now -- use the monarchy authority type plus some sort of constitutional/citizen-based civics.

    And I'm going to build a pacifist, xenophile empire! It's going to be wholly unique. :p

    "The planets also are very close to each other. If a person was standing on one of the planet’s surface, they could gaze up and potentially see geological features or clouds of neighboring worlds, which would sometimes appear larger than the moon in Earth's sky."

    So cool. That's space opera level ****.

    Which Millennial Tribe are you in?
    (geared towards Canadians, but could probably apply outside Canada too)

    http://environicsresearch.com/insights/meet-millennials/

    After taking the quiz, apparently I'm a "Critical Counterculturalist" (I don't think it's the best description of me, but whatever)

    The others are "Engaged Idealists," "New Traditionalists," "Bros and Brittanys," "Lone Wolves," and "Diverse Strivers."
