It's occurred to me that since our membership shifts and our backgrounds vary so much, it might be good to compare what we're capable of. More to the point, I was thinking we might be able to help each other pick up relevant skills, if not hone the ones we already have.

If people are looking to train or think they could help others, why don't we discuss that here? I know at least a few of us don't have backgrounds in combat, for example. On our first day here I met someone who wasn't familiar with firearms but might get good use out of the skill, for another.

In my case, I have experience training others and can help with hand-to-hand combat. I can work with people ranging from average human strength to well above it. I've got some skill with swords and knives, but I wouldn't compare that to someone who specializes in them, and that's something I'd like to work on. In terms of non-combative skills, if someone wants to work on something like cooking, I'm reasonably helpful there.

Let's see how we can help each other improve.

Impressive, isn't it? Outworlders are known less for creativity and more for outright carnage.

[figureitout]

it's impressive in how bad it is

anyway, dude, you have all my sympathy, and this is coming from someone who deals with weird werewolf packs and were-lizards and dark druids on a daily basis

[pummelling]

All at the same time or separately? THAT sounds like a blast.

[figureitout]

oh my god, not at the same time, that'd be a nightmare

i mean, okay, the werewolf pack and dark druid thing actually happened at the same time

but the were-lizard thing was before that

it's called a kanima, by the way

so much more creative than Reptile

just sayin

[pummelling]

so let me get this timeline straight: were-lizard/kanima -> werewolves + druids?

I need way more context than this.

[figureitout]

yep, that's about it

though actually it's more like: crazy vengeful werewolf + equally crazy hunter -> were-lizard/kanima who was controlled by a deranged high school kid and then the grandpa of the crazy hunter trying to avenge her death -> a pack of alpha werewolves + a dark druid who eventually fought each other -> a dark fox spirit

the context is that life in beacon hills isn't what it used to be

[pummelling]

My world is weird and half of that sounds like you just made it up, honestly...

[figureitout]

trust me, i wish i had

i really, really wish i had
