New GM Blog.
Move this to the right place please. ^^
"Check this out!" yelped my coworker. I knew that today I was to be given instructions on a new quest line, but, sadly, no one had told me when. So it was a bit of a surprise to have a stack of papers fly at my face, but at least I didn't have to wait anymore.
Well knowing me, I hastily skimmed through the pages just to get to the good part.
I had the fortune of being one of the first to test out the new Family System. I was to create a family, but it was my discovery that I wasn't able to do this alone, for obvious reasons. I mean, a family can't really consist of one person, can it? So of course that meant I had to wrangle up a few of the new guys in my department - they'll do anything. Shortly after, we had the makings of a family - well almost.
I now had "juniors" that I had to support. Captain Al had told me that I had to look out for them. In other words, I had to pull them up by their bootstraps, show 'em the ropes, and be a responsible leader. The whole time I was thinking, "What's in this for me?! Why would I ever want to help out a newb?!"
Suddenly, a flood of memories came rushing through my head about my early Maple career. It's funny, the things my Shadower can afford now makes all the time I spent scrounging for mesos on my Rogue seem downright sad. Heck, I could barely afford to recharge my throwing stars! That's when I knew how much the Family System made sense. If only I had a good leader to help me out every now and then, life would have been so much easier!
After a few days of looking out for my new juniors, I found it incredibly interesting just how much I wanted to see them succeed. It brings a heart-warming tear to your eye, don't it?
So what's next? We grow, as any good family should!
