Due to people jumping up and down at the prospect of a sequel to Candle, this page is dedicated to it. It's going to be called 'The Enemy Of My Enemy'.

[insert Stuff here]

The enemy of my enemy is my enemies enemy.  No more and No less.  (Rule number 'I can't remember' from SchlockMercenary)  --Vitenka
Same principle as the old Netrunner? flavour text (and I can't remember which card it's from) that I've been bandying about "The enemy of my enemy is sometimes also my enemy". -- Senji
"Netwatch Credit Voucher" -- Volkazz

I am no longer accepting signups for Enemy!



What you need now is an /Enemy page, and possibly a /EnemyCast? page -- Senji
/me hopes fervently that that was a joke.
There's a kernel of truth in it.  Organise information early, organise it often -- Senji
Snigger - Candle was at least 75% improvisation by weight. Enemy will hopefully be more organised.
Sometimes you just have to know when to WingIt?.  And the players always have a spanner available to throw into the works -- Senji

The list is full! Consisting of:
StuartFraser
Senji
ChessyPig
Matthew (sorry, can't remember your WikiName?)
Which Matthew?  We're not short of them... :-)
Churchill compsci first year.
Ahh, *that* Matthew...
NickTaylor
Martin French
Xarak (well, hopefully his player anyway).

One out, one in; seven is a nice round number for a party.

I want the name to be some kind of proverb or aphorism - any suggestions? It's going to be set on the Blessed Isle starting about a year after the fall of Walker in Darkness. The style - hopefully plot driven politics / intrigue, with the party in hiding and on the run.  The party will have to be more cohesive and subtle than in Candle, because I don't want them (a) all to die of Wyld Hunt or (b) all to kill one another. The theme - a misfit bunch of Anathema are trying to save the Realm from itself, because they know that it shall need all its strength very shortly...
"A candle loses nothing by lighting another candle"
"It is not necessary to light a candle in the sun"
"Is a candle brought to be put under a bushel, or under a bed?" -- KJV Mark 4:21b
-- Senji
"Burning the candle at both ends" --Vitenka  (Seems appropriate given the workload comments)
Anything that doesn't involve candles? Or is this a Conspiracy? to get me to recycle this page for its use?
"Goodness speaks in a whisper, evil shouts." -- Xarak
The Enemy of my Enemy --Edith
...is sometimes also my Enemy. -- Senji
...makes damm good coffee --Edith
Is currently the favoured entry for names. Wow, this got a lot of response ^^;;
Don't look too closely into Ediths CoffeeGrinder, people.  --Vitenka  (Hmm, that makes quite a good campaign name too.)
Oh! And where were you lot when I was naming campaigns, eh?  --Vitenka (You can call it 'Shadows of the past returned' - I'm pretty sure that is unwanted now)
No Bureau Sidereals or loyal Abyssals, and Lunars may have problems due to the amount of civilisation around. Renegade Abyssals and Fae welcome (subject to Graceful, Wicked Masks coming out), as are Solars of all stripes. Dragon-Blooded / God-Blooded / Dragon Kings / ronin Sidereals at Storyteller discretion only, due to having to balance the power level somewhat, and having to give the party some kind of unity.
How about rogue Sidereals... :-) ...
On application. Certainly not disallowed.
Actually, I've got a better idea... -- Senji
Hmm, I haven't come up with a problem of how to get Hearthstone(s) for a Solar who was born on the Blessed Isle... -- Senji
Hmm,hmm, YKYB'playing exalted'TMW'you can do most of character creation in your head', and it takes so little effort that doing it for a proposed campaign a few months in the future that you might not be able to schedule yourself to be involved in isn't a problem.... -- Senji
Hmm, hmm, hmm, well, I've already started writing a background story for a character [here], on the principle that I can always use the character elsewhere if need be... -- Senji

Brilliant! Hopefully we can keep as many Candle players as possible, but I know several are leaving Cambridge :( I'm currently working on a character, although at the moment she's more conceptual than stats-and-rules. At the moment I'm trying to build her as a ( probably ronin ) Chosen of Endings, but she could also be a rogue Fae or possibly an Abyssal. She's about as far from Xarak you can get in personality. For one thing, she's deaf and dumb ( not dumb as in Xarak, dumb as in can't speak :) I'm also creating some custom charms and minor artifacts for her. -- Xarak
A description/story about Amyra is ready here. Please comment! "Amyra"

Note that if she has custom Charms, then they are either Martial Arts Charms, or she's not a Sidereal. --Requiem
Yep, they are. One of them will be essentially a flavor-enhancing Martial Arts charm that can be used with any Form, and I'll also create a Sidereal Martial Art for her. One of the artifacts will effectivly be a daiklaive ( well...sort of ), the other will be a watering can :) -- Xarak
I assume you mean a normal Martial Art, seeing as it takes about 60xp to get near a Sidereal Martial Art and more like three to four hundred to actually master one. Again, email me with suggestions, I'd prefer a whole new Form to a single charm and a superpowered style you'll never really get to wield. --Requiem
You can master Violet Bier of Sorrows and get Essence 3 as a starting character, then all you need is to get Essence 4 and you can start on a canonical Sidereal MA. So it would take much less than 60 xp ( more like 30 ) if you MA munchkinize. What I'll prob. do is create both a normal MA, and a Sidereal MA, which will be simelar in flavor but independent. I'm hoping she will be able to start on the Sidereal MA at some point in the campaign, maybe later rather than sooner. I'll mail you. -- Xarak

A watering can?! -- Senji
Why yes. Xarak had a soulsteel ink pot. I seem to like magical fluid containers. You'll be able to find out more here Amyra when she's ready. -- Xarak
Had a soulsteel inkpot, that along with a large amount of other artifacts that have turned up in many campagns currently have a different owner - NellensArtan
Humm now there's an idea could Artan make it 3 out of 3 for campagns survived in, shame i wont be in cmabridge next year. - Tony
Cool.  My character signature is in a somewhat different area, really... -- Senji
Or both. -- Senji

I have a concept for a solar PC unfortunately she's more an outdoors type. I would love to play but I will have to see whether I have time to DM TippingTheScales? and play in Candle Mark 2. -- King DJ

*Waves manically* Am sad that I missed signups for the new campaign :( But have had a most excellent time in Candle Mark 1. And now I've proved I know the Wiki exists. -- ConradZ

Much as I enjoyed candle Mark 1 I am not sure its wise for me to run TippingTheScales? and play in a campaign next here because of time commitment. It would be a shame if I couldn't join enemy with my new character but that might be the way it goes. That means you might be able to play anyway Conrad.-- King DJ

And more Stuff to come as and when.
