What if something is chasing the PCs through the Portals?
Almost done with the Map....


It's not complete but I've goNina dump it here for convince.


Your accepted. Although I think Jingo might be a little more bitter having most of his physical body destroyed in attacks. But it's not a big deal. Just finish it up and post in the CHAR tab. I absolutely loved the INFO: *Click* whirrrrr thing.
This looks very well-thought out; the premise is hitting chords close to the curiously unknown for me (as I have little experience with this genre type). If you are still searching for more players, I would love to join this. I do have a few questions, if you don't mind my asking.

A. What sort of transportation is there? Public, Private, None.

1. Is Teleportation a means? Whether fixed location (think perma-Portals), Blink, or Conjured.

2. Aside from the use of these War Mechs, are air ships still viable for cargo, transportation, etc.?

B. My friend and I (ViridianHue) would like to collaborate within this RP. Considering the nature of the posts, would it be possible for us to work like this together or should we be completely separate entities (E.g. I want to be a Knight, and she can co-pilot a type of 'Dual Mech')? Looks like this is a large-scale/influence RP, so I'd just like your take on the idea.

C. Are War Mechs basically Exo-Suits or larger than? The previous question will be null (because two pilots what) if it's basically just an Exo Suit.


Thanks for taking an interest Dub, but I would reconsider the type of RP your joining-it's not a 'mech' RP. That's just setting flavor. This is more of a darkly backlit political/diabolical RP based on the TURN structure I used in Our Dark Star. Because we use stats and it's more of a "You tell me what you want to do-I tell you the outcome" traditional sort of Roleplay I'm going to say no to your collaboration idea. You can both play and collaborate within the RP sure-you just have to have separate characters and turn orders. If your not sure what I'm talking about go read the Playing the Game section under the Game Information header.

To answer your first questions: (the type that I like!)
A. Public and Private transport is available. The most widely used is the TRAM system funded by the city (you'll see it on the map when I'm done with it). There are canals in the city with boats. Gyrocopters. Shuttles. etc.
1. A sorcerer could teleport with a little effort. The only permanent 'portal' is located in LANDFALL, built centuries ago to transport cargo to the city. But who's to say there aren't other portals waiting to be reactivated?
2. Air ships in the Final Fantasy sense with big whirring propellers don't really fit the setting. Power sources are more mysterious and ambiguous. There are craft capable of flight though. You could always spend Assets to develop something though...

C. Mechs range from Exo-suits to AT-AT style battle-mechs.

That being said, I would love to have you/your friend join. I can promise you the following:
1. An active, dedicated GM that will generate original content regularly.
2. An immersive world that your character can GREATLY affect.
3. Hopefully some fun!
Sorry, I've lost interest, so I'll be dropping out.


Thanks for letting me know!

Well at least I got air to breathe... You notice a data-stick port below the keyboard and remember the one you found in your locker. You pop off the cap and insert the stick. A window appears on the screen.



>DATA LOADED
>files
>Turbo_Lift_Key.exe
>Cargo_L2_Key.exe

>vnmXXxTROJAN.exe


Looks like some door keys and a virus... you think. Maybe you can use this to get to the Cargo Bay or the Ships Bridge. Not sure about that Trojan Executable though... You could also access the other computer files at the terminal.


Inventory

  • Data-Stick (Cargo Key, Turbo Lift Key, Virus{Unknown})
  • Small Med-kit
  • Blaster Pistol

Could I suggest something similar to my COMMANDER game? People seem to be enjoying that..

@Rhymer sorry for bothering. Impatient me just can't wait. Do you know around when the next post will be available ?


I try to update every day or two but no promises!
Hello everyone! I only rarely peak in this corner of the boards but I wanted to drop an IC for my game Exegesis happening over in Casual. It uses a very stats light system of my own devising so I feel justified posting here. It takes place in the far future...just have a look if your into science fiction/cyberpunk/post-cyberpunk/transhumanism etc. EXEGESIS OOC
