I think it makes the most sense for my character to have been at the park for a good deal of time already.

Can you refresh me on the Everest system we had, maybe in relation to those skills I posted for my character.
Romans 8:31 What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us?

1 Corinthians 13:1-3 If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.

Just list the traits you're character has, so that I can tailor something to individual skills.

This is the most that I've worked out for him so far.

My character seems to appear everywhere. If he is not popping up at the already built food stands of the parks, then he is found pushing his cart around. People never see him cook either, he always just seems to have food hot and ready. Since he appears at food stands all over the parks, he often has to change uniforms to fit that park section's theme. The food stands of the park act as miniature bases for him, allowing him to get equipment should a problem arise, and if people are around, his food will keep them satisfied and distracted as the problem is dealt with.

I also had the idea that he would either have pig like qualities or even be some pig hybrid, but that people would only notice with a glance before his food distracted them again.
This is the rough description I made before. Still no name yet. I'm trying to think if I remember the Everest rules correctly.

Alluring Foods (5)
Cart/Stand Operator (2)
Quick Service(2)
Pig-man(1)

I'll have to think out more of the specifics for each category, but they are supposed to fit in line with what I described in the first paragraph.

Great, just take the numbers off of those and use them to justify the things you do.

How does that work?

Are they like charges or are they like the health of that skill or something?

No.

Tell me what you want to do, use the backstory or skill to justify it in some way. This is a lot more freeform than Everest would be.

How do the numbers affect what I do. Do they allow me to use the skill more often or more powerfully?

You know what. Keep the mundane stuff you can do yourself to use as many times as you like. Put a 5 next to the weird stuff. Those are your weird points. Every time you use a weird power in front of park goers, you lose one.

Alright, I might reorder my skills some but I think the categories can stay the same

It'll be < font color = (Color Here) > Text

Sans spaces before the first font and after the last font.

Now how do I turn it off in the middle of a post, without making the whole post green?

That would be the closing tag.

 Which is <> With /font inside.

No spaces.

How are you putting in colors?

I just put in (font color = red) Words (/font), replacing () with <> and get..

Words
