What's Your Worth?

edited December 2020 in Echo Canyon
Welcome to What's Your Worth, a goofy forum game where you tabulate the breadth of your character's experiences and assign them an arbitrary point value. These are mostly RP-oriented, no one cares about how many artifacts you have.

Go down the list and keep track of any entry that applies to your character. Similar entries (age 25+, age 50+, etc.) can be accumulated for STACKS OF CASH. Notice that there are some slightly adult-oriented entries. If you don't feel comfy confessing to these, feel free to skip them.

Let us know how your character stacks up! You can prune the list and post the ones that apply to you, or just give us the final cash-in value. It's up to you, don't overthink it too much.

Updated with new entries in yellow!

(there's no difference between "your character" and "you", I just alternated to break up the lists a bit)

    Even though I don't really play her anymore, and haven't played her in earnest for years, Ecikoria is worth about $10 or so. Teani is at roughly $9.

    God same. $19.00 exactly

    I kinda ran out of steam writing up the list, if anyone thinks of some more stuff I'll keep it updated.
  • TetchtaTetchta The Innocent
    I'd say we could add more to the "antagonism" section but that'd be a blatant attempt by me to get more Aetolia Bux.

  • SibattiSibatti Mamba dur Naya Amidst vibrant flora and trees
    $18.25. It took me a moment to realize that the age part was cumulative so this makes more sense.

    $15.75 - I just need to be married two more times and have a three way.

    (Illuminai): Saltz says, "Moxie is just doing the Moxie thing to do, often misinterpreted."

    (Tells): Sir Iames Gallant, the Executioner tells you, "The one Illuminai beyond prayer, I swear."

    Valingar: "How could a daughter of me, the most noble man in the south, be so heartless?"

    (Tells): Haven Locke, Illuminai Khimaira tells you, "Be that as it may, I've also seen the strength in you. You can take care of yourself."

    $18 even, and lets just say I haven't held many leadership positions or been Shadow/Sired. o:)

    Edit: Also some of those questions are SUSPISCIOUSLY specific.

  • RhyotRhyot Bloodloch
    I found this particularly interesting considering how long I've been playing, but $7.50.

    I would say $9.50 since Rhyot was one of the last Bloodborn and RP wise, I play him as such too, but Bloodborn doesn't mechanically exist in the game... so I'm not sure if that would still be considered as holding an unattainable class. I'll leave that up to the public.


  • RijettaRijetta Nowhere Important
    Added $1.75 off the new stuff to bring Rij up to a cool $10, and also counted all my god relics. I have... Several.

    Well, now we're up to a whopping $16.75 yikes.

    Really like the color coding now btw, made it really easy to find the new entries.

    edit: small note, I'm pretty sure unattainable classes have been utterly deleted from the game and NOBODY has them anymore. I could be wrong, though. Still think you should get $2 if you had Priest tbh.
