Interest Check (New setting)

a topic in Interest Checks, a part of the RPG forum.

Thinking about starting a roleplay, but don't have the idea completely finished? Post it here, not in the main OOC forum!

Interest Check (New setting)

Tips: 0.00 INK Postby Mr D on Thu Aug 28, 2008 8:05 pm

Hi. I'm new to this forum and so I'm not sude if I'm doing this right, but I was wondering if people would be interested in taking part in a setting I've developed. I've got a number of ideas for plots but what I was mainly interested in is what other people could do when allowed to run free wth the setting I've created. I'd like to see what people think of it and what ideas they come up with.

The setting itself is a high fantay (I guess) with the typical range of fantasy races and a few more besides (And I'd be more than willing to allow people to introduce their own if they wish, so long as we can come to an agreement about what is 'reasonable'). Magic exists but is very rare for the most part and overtly supernatural forces (Demons, Vampires, Monsters, Gods etc) are largely unknown and thought of as myths by most people. The setting itself has a wide variety of countries (largely based on our own ancient history) that are entering a rennaisance of sorts, wth science and exploration taking off in earnest, giving participants the freedom to be the first to explore new places and make names for themselves.

I have a fair bit of material written up on this setting but wanted to make sure people were interested before I cluttered up the forums with information that might never be used. :D It is my hope that people will take what I've written and add something of their own to it.

Is anyone interested? have I made any major breaches in ettiquette/common sense? Should I get out and never come back? :lol:

It's gone now.

Well, everything I've written so far in regards to the setting is now posted here. If anyone's still interested then we can start throwing around ideas.

If anyone's still interested I've got an idea that stands out from the others and might make for a good RP.

Nemesis:

Over a decade ago the nation of Valania, which for so long had stood as the last line of defense against the mighty empire of Sarife was occupied and subjugated by the forces of Sarife. The heir to the throne, Lucius Delacroix was captured and held as a political hostage by the Emperor and imprisoned within the walls of his grand palace. There Lucius planned to wreak his vengeance on those who betrayed his family and usurped his throne. Now he must put that plan into action. However, to do so he will need help, for he faces the wrath of an empire.

Players will take part in political intrigue and subterfuge as Lucius and his new allies must avoid betrayal and plotting on all sides to overthrow a tyrant and liberate a nation.

I imagine it being quite heavy on character interaction and plotting between the different factions with alot of backstabbing.

Anyone interested? Anyone want to suggest any ideas of their own?

Wow. Didn't think anyone would reply to this after so long.

I've redesigned the idea for Nemesis considerably since I first posted this and now that I'm ready to start posting here again after a long haitus I was going to try rebooting several of my old RPs, including this one.

The short answer is yes, violence is allowed, even encouraged, if it gets results. :P But of course you can be as much a victim as an instigator if you're not careful. :D
