Title: A fantasy RP
Post by: Mirumoto_Kenjiro on April 07, 2011, 03:41:05 AM
I've been working on this for a few months, and I need to see if it would get popular.  I've got pages of rules that I'll have to post later, but here's a summary of what it's about.

The setting is in the 1890's, and besides historical accuracies, it'll also be a fantasy with magic and steam punk-style technology.  You can choose among humans, anthro furries, and non-anthro furries.  There's much more, but I'll have to place it all in my next post.

IGNORE POST.
Title: A fantasy RP
Post by: Mirumoto_Kenjiro on April 08, 2011, 01:48:40 AM
The more the merrier.  This part will take some time and I'll have to add everything in stages, so please bear with me.



Time:  1890's

Races:  Humans, Anthropomorphic Furries, Non-Anthropomorphic Furries (intelligent but simplistic, preferring basic needs rather than monetary or class desires), Ancients (any of the other races, but much older and almost unable to die by old age).  NO mythical creatures EXCEPT dragons, gryphons, pegasi, hippogryffs, manticores, & basilisks.  NO shapeshifters, NO supernatural or paranormal.

Magic:  Magic is greatly limited to a select group of classes, or specific magic items.

Classes:
Spellswords = Rumored to be descendants of the Ancients.  Use diluted form of magic into sword fighting.  Cannot use magic with any weapon other than swords, daggers, or other bladed weapons.  Can use all other weapons when not using magic.  Can be in any lifestyle EXCEPT religious or political positions, but they can independently serve a government or clerical order.  Magical powers here come in "slots" and spellswords can have no more than three slots, so they can have a combination of a few different powers, list below.

1-Slot
Element for weapon or body enhancement and projectiles (Fire, Water, Wind, Earth, Lightning, any existing Metals, Shadow, Light, Wood)
Non-element enhancement
Body enhancement (speed, agility, strength, etc.)
Telekinesis (over sword only)

2-Slot
Armor (limited time)
Force Field (limited time)

One Element
Body Enhancement
Armor (limited time)
Force Field (limited time)
Foresight
Healing


Ancients = Believed to be the source of all magic in the world, and were once revered as gods or demons.  Believed to be quite powerful, but would seldom use their powers to the limit, instead sending underlings to do their bidding.  All sorts of magic are used, EXCEPT resurrection, time travel, reality control (mind control & illusions are accepted), or control of forces outside the planet.  Exceptions may be with artifacts or relics.


Technology:  Primary sources of power are wind, steam, fire, & limited electricity.

Transport = Normal forms include railways, steamships, sailing ships, sail-driven land vehicles, carriage & even horseback (non-anthro horses are hired for the last two transports).  Fantasy modes of travel include submersibles, balloons, zeppelins, & aero ships.  Aero ships categorized as either sail ships or ironclads.

Sail ships use sails to be guided by wind currents, and only need steam power for lift.  Mostly made of wood, and are very fast, but lack in armor & armor, except for warships.

Ironclads use steam for lift and movement.  They have no sails, have high armor and armament, but very slow.

Classes:
Aeronauts = Sailors of aero ships.  Matches any adventuring lifestyle of sea-faring sailors.

Gunsmiths = Talented weapon makers and inventors.  Can make any exotic weapon not powered by magic.  Can carry no more than two custom weapons besides normal weapons.

No. At least, I don't think it was described elsewhere. I just thought, that so far there is no reason, why such an organization couldn't exist.

Post by: Kor on April 09, 2011, 01:10:39 AM
I assume ancients are npc's only, since they sound pretty powerful.

I guess the only ones who can do anything like magic are the Spellswords, Monks, and Alchemists?

I guess with each slot one can pick only 1 thing, like enhanced speed, enhanced strength, lightning, ect?
Title: A fantasy RP
Post by: Mirumoto_Kenjiro on April 09, 2011, 02:09:40 AM
^ Kor
The slots apply only to the spellswords, who have three.  The "1-Slot" powers fill only one slot, while the "2-Slot" fills, yeah, 2 slots.  So you can have three 1-Slots, or a 2-Slot and a 1-Slot.


As for this world, it'll just be our planet set in 1890's.  There will be a few historical tweaks as well as the fantasy ones already described.

The Ancients will probably be more plot based, but I can assign one to whoever wants to play one.


Anyway, here are a few main plots that we could play one or more, depending on how many are going to play:

A.  This plot will start in London, following a return exhibition of an archaeologist and his vast treasures.  But things go wrong when the scientist mysteriously dies, and one of the exhibits spring to life and makes its way back to where it was unearthed, destroying everything in its path.  Main antagonists include an Ancient and its followers.

B.  This plot starts in either London or Paris, which the daughter of a missing explorer tries to hire a team to seek him out in the jungles of South America, where a lost civilization is believed to be just discovered.  Main antagonists include jungle natives, an Ancient, and a rogue general. (Story will be explained later)

C.  This plot begins in India, where an aging explorer is hiring adventurers to join him in his search for a lost civilization in the mountains of Tibet.  Main antagonists include foreign agents and their private forces.
Title: A fantasy RP
Post by: Myrkin on April 09, 2011, 08:01:08 AM
All these plots sounds interesting. It may be a tough choice. ;)
Title: A fantasy RP
Post by: StarfallRaptor on April 09, 2011, 09:33:55 PM
Agreed.  If I had to vote, either one or 3 sounds good.  
Also, count me in.
Title: A fantasy RP
Post by: Kor on April 09, 2011, 10:12:12 PM
I may do a spellsword or something, and one that has some small gadgets or something.


Also I can see how some of the plots could be combined.   b and c could be combined in some way.  

& A could be done later as a part 2 or chapter 2 of the rp.  Sort of like in a sequel serial rp.  maybe something the explorer type from the first rp brought back.  He could be killed, or just wind up in the hospital or something.
Title: A fantasy RP
Post by: Mirumoto_Kenjiro on April 10, 2011, 02:18:02 AM
For me anyway, each plot will have a different set of characters.  So if your characters end up from one plot to another plot, they'll have to spend it with other characters of mine.  I'll set up my chars in groups per plot.  Again, this will take stages.

Post by: Kor on April 10, 2011, 02:42:22 AM
SO this will be separate rp's then, 1 for each plot?
Title: A fantasy RP
Post by: Mirumoto_Kenjiro on April 10, 2011, 02:44:05 AM
These are main plots.  They won't cross each other or mixed, but they can follow each other.
Title: A fantasy RP
Post by: Myrkin on April 10, 2011, 05:26:11 AM
But we can move our character from one plot to the next, right?
Title: A fantasy RP
Post by: Mirumoto_Kenjiro on April 10, 2011, 05:32:22 AM
Right.
Title: A fantasy RP
Post by: Kor on April 10, 2011, 11:00:55 AM
I guess the various plots will be in the same rp thread?

and ideally each person should have 1 character for each plot?
Title: A fantasy RP
Post by: Mirumoto_Kenjiro on April 11, 2011, 01:58:42 AM
OK, let's make this easier.  Let's just do one plot, and see how it goes from beginning to end.  After that, we plan on the next one, with our old characters or with new ones.  How many chars you want is up to you.
Title: A fantasy RP
Post by: Mirumoto_Kenjiro on April 13, 2011, 03:08:10 AM
Let's go ahead and vote for our first main plot:


Plot A = Myrkin, MK

Plot B =  MK

Plot C =  MK
Title: A fantasy RP
Post by: Myrkin on April 14, 2011, 06:59:15 AM
Hmm.... I vote for A
Title: A fantasy RP
Post by: Mirumoto_Kenjiro on April 15, 2011, 02:07:16 AM
You can pick more than one or all if you want.
Title: A fantasy RP
Post by: Kor on April 15, 2011, 12:04:04 PM
So the multiple plots will all be going on at the same time?
Title: A fantasy RP
Post by: Mirumoto_Kenjiro on April 16, 2011, 02:03:35 AM
No, we just pick the plot with the most votes to start of the RP.
Title: A fantasy RP
Post by: Kor on April 16, 2011, 11:10:18 PM
That sounds ok.  The other 2 plots can be done next time or the time after that.
Title: A fantasy RP
Post by: Mirumoto_Kenjiro on April 23, 2011, 02:12:03 AM
The vote is in...and we'll start off with plot A:  The story starts in London, England.  The background of the plot is the return of a well-known archaeologist and his collection of rare artifacts from the Middle East.  The game itself starts one day after the scientist was murdered at night in his study.  The main players of the game include: the academy overseeing the new archaeological exhibits and whom the murdered individual is associated with, a rival faction with supporters attempting to break into the exhibits to steal something, a cult from the Middle East seeking the scientist and the artifacts he took, and any adventurer crossing paths with a rising fight for survival of the known world...

So who's up for it?
Title: A fantasy RP
Post by: Kor on April 23, 2011, 11:37:10 AM
I am.  I'll work on a character idea.  Sounds like it could be interesting.  And with the other plot ideas the rp could have sequel parts in the future.
Title: A fantasy RP
Post by: Mirumoto_Kenjiro on April 26, 2011, 01:24:22 AM

the lightning I guess is shooting lightning from the sword, or is just the blade gets an electrical charge with the obvious crackling of electricity along the blade?
Title: A fantasy RP
Post by: Mirumoto_Kenjiro on May 02, 2011, 02:54:41 AM
It can work in any way.  Either from the sword, or from your off-hand (you must have the sword in the other hand), or anything else as long as the power is no stronger than summoning a single good bolt of lightning.  A spellsword's power is limited compared to an Ancient.
Title: A fantasy RP
Post by: Kor on May 02, 2011, 12:40:46 PM
I guess ancients are npc's only and not available to pc's due to their power levels.  Just putting together some character ideas I have into a character.
Title: A fantasy RP
Post by: Mirumoto_Kenjiro on May 03, 2011, 03:02:58 AM
The Ancients, like the one I just made, will be assigned to a participating player, with restrictions in usage.  For sure, you must have your own characters who have higher priority in the story, and you can't simply kill off your own chars and still make use of the Ancient.
Title: A fantasy RP

You know what, we may be able to do plots A and C.  However, we will have to clearly mark our posts with ((PLOT A)) or ((PLOT C)) before continuing our posts.  And for those players in multiple plots (like me), have a barrier between plots on our post, to reduce confusion.

Think this will work?

Yeah, that could definitely work...

Guess I have to come up with a 2nd character? NOt sure if I can.  the first one took a while.
Title: A fantasy RP
Post by: Mirumoto_Kenjiro on July 19, 2011, 02:25:26 AM
You're not required to make one for the other plot if you don't want to.  And if making chars are that tough, I could always help out.  Besides, I haven't yet assigned the Ancient char to someone yet, probably not until his cue, and there might be another Ancient in the other Plot.

The new profiles have been approved.

Also, Kor, you can set up a villain for Plot C, if that helps for ideas.

Alrighty then.  Give me a few days to set up the intro to plots A and C, since those were the top picks.  A starts in London, and C starts off in Bombay, India.
Title: A fantasy RP
Post by: Kor on November 03, 2011, 10:06:33 PM
I guess I have to pick which one my character will be in.

You still have plenty of time to create more, Kor.  It'll take me a while to get this game started.

Sorry it took me a while to get the story started.  I was rechecking everything for accuracy and authenticity.  This is the general intro to the story.  I'll add my own soon.
