[@Prince of Seraphs][@sandman9913][@Dulcet][@OppositionJ] [quote=@Prince of Seraphs] What are the boundaries of the RP? Is there magic? Could we play as mages or have enchanted weapons? Also what are the most common beasts and the rules behind them. Like for vampires would it be covered by Dracula rules (which include a number of abilities not used in pop culture) or more like Buffy the Vampire Slayer styless (stakes kill, sunlight burns, holy water hurts etc)? [/quote] [quote=@Dulcet] I would be interested in participating; however, like the other poster I'm wondering what the exact limits of the setting are. Also, are there any limitations on the motivations / situations of the characters? Not in the sense that one can secretly be an antagonist (though it would be nice to know if a participant could betray us), but things like not being part of the Order proper--such as if they were a contractor or collaborating outside force. Do you have any particular vision for the kind of backgrounds of our characters? [/quote] 1. Boundaries? Such as what can and can't you do? I suppose it depends on the story, I mean killing villagers and going crazy is going to be a hard no. No lonewolf hardcore beast mode killer. The Idea is we're a paramilitary organization. I'd prefer us to use intelligence and cunning to help us kill these creatures. I'd say build a normal person who has to fulfill the duties of an extraordinary human. (We want this to sort of to be trying for our characters, they won't be amazing killing machines. I really want the feeling of hopelessness to be apart of this.) 2. I'll say magic in a way. I would be one person designated who can carve runes and things of that nature that allow for warding and protection. Edit 3. Enchanted weapons, I think enchanted weapons would be alright, nothing crazy like a sword that kills anything it touches. I'd like to keep them simple like an enchanted knife that keeps the user safe from mind control, or something like that. Just run it by me please. 4. And look above for more information on beasts, I'll complete the bestiary later. Also I'd prefer us to be human and no combination of beast or anything like that. Now if you really want to PM me and I'll see what I can do. 5. I'm open to any suggestions about motives really. From conscripted outlaw, to secret traitor. Just run it by me first and we'll discuss it or I'll approve it. 6. I'm open to any backgrounds really as long as you can justify it. Once the RP starts I'm going to let go of the reins a little and let everyone sort of flush out their character how they want. Also there are going to be four ranks available Lieutenant ( officer ) 1 available Sargent ( Non-commissioned officer ) 1 available Corporal ( Junior Enlisted ) (unlimited) Private ( Junior Enlisted ) ( Unlimited ) The rank is not strictly enforced, unless its a Sargent, or a Marshal and even then its usually overlooked.
