@BingTheWing

We are.

Formaroth: Battle for the Throne

we'll begin something eventually. Just got back home from christmas, so we're getting things fully back into order here first. Unless we suddenly find a post spark.

A fantasy setting collaboration?

indeed. That is quite respectable.

And there's lots of good guides out there. we just remember when we started reading that guide how wonderful we found the worldbuilding section.

Not sure if the right sections are available as (free) excerpts on the net, but there are at least some segment available, @Oak7ree. If legality is not the issue, we're sure there's more complete sources out there too.

even if you have no interest in using any of the numerical systems, we'd recommend looking at D&D 5e dungeon master stuff for worldbuilding... The main book for that has a wonderful guide to making worlds that function.

Coruscant Sacked: Aftermath

we'll be providing a review later, when the other GMs have looked over the sheet too, but there are some areas that will need work.

Fewer areas than we feared, though (pessimism can be a boon too)

Making the jump from Casual to Advanced

Oh. Those two are very different things indeed.

We did not mean others wandering in and ruining plans... Far too often, such means that they expect your character to behave a certain way that is entirely contrary to how your character would behave naturally.

@Gowi You don't enjoy your own characters deciding for themselves what they want to do?

Making the jump from Casual to Advanced

The best thing to see with a well-laid plan is for one of your characters to waltz in and wreak havoc, rendering it utterly useless and irrelevant. Though after spending a decent amount of time writing from the perspective of a specific character, you usually learn some about what will and will not work for him/her/it.

We've learned never to plan out everything a character should do... they tend not to cooperate like that. what we plan is settings like "who will (s)he encounter?" "Where will the encounter happen?" etc.

For our RPs, we usually spend far longer than most on characters, both our own and our players' characters to make sure they are up to par.
