@cheesegrater Huzzah! Thanks!

@groth DO IT!

I heartily recommend trying to take games whose setup or fiction you like and fitting it to a set of rules you prefer. You'll probably have people point out that X was im/possible under the old rules and now it's the opposite, but I've never seen any setting REALLY be shaped or accurately fitted to the rules of the game associated with it. (Except Dragonlance, where they kept Vancian casting).

I say, tell players, if you like to chargen and are bored af, make a roster character. If nobody does, don't worry about it. If someone does, you approve them onto the roster if approvable. If someone takes the character but doesn't RP them more than n-amount before dropping them, they go back on the roster. If they get played enough for it to matter, the character is gone same as 'original' characters and it's handled the same way. You also limit the number of times a character can change hands even if it's only one scene per player.

@raeras
Holy cow man, Demon? As in Demon: The Descent and not a Fallen adaptation?

If so I admire your team's bravery there, that is not a game for the casual storyteller 😄

Yeah xD. The most difficult part is the Cipher thing but we've got some ideas in mind for handling that

@bloodangel broadly, Sindome had core code from Cybersphere, if I recall. Sindome is far and away different than CS is, now

I prefer CS, because I feel like I can make a decent character now, instead of being utterly shit for forever on Sindome. The RP on both have been great for me over the years. Just... Far less on CS because it's a small player base game now.

What CS gas going for it over Sindome, in my opinion, is a fleshed out Matrix.

@surasanji Is this trying to do like... Exalted Modern? Is it trying to use CoD rules to do Exalted? I am verreh confuse.

@thatonedude

You are my hero! Thank you!!

My game, Firefly - Still Flyin', has a small but active crowd, and we're glad to have newbies join in.

@sunny
Maybe not with PMs, though?

@arkandel said in Are there any high fantasy MU*s?:

Not to advocate for this specific setting but The Traitor Son novels by Miles Cameron reversed the trope of man versus nature very well.

Typically the fires of industry threaten the natural balance, forests are chopped down and magic fades from the world. In these books nature is a badass not too fond of humans and their cities, so civilization is shrinking; gryphons attack settlements, exotic creatures are pushing desperate communities back behind their walls, and humankind may well be an endangered species.

This could make for an interesting setting to base a game (or campaign 🙂 ) on.

Question.

Did the humans perhaps expand aggressively into nature, threatening the natural balance, chopping down forests, and that's why nature's like, "lulz no"?

In the novels it was... more complicated than that. No, but also yes.

In a game or campaign that could be an interesting origin to explore though.

Thanks to everyone for the detailed advice. I'll look for a roster character with a decent amount of built in connections.

@cobaltasaurus said in Why are there so many MUs set in Maine?:

Oh, have we moved on from bitching about there being too many PNW games?

@serenity

Oh, beauty. I thought we lost the only RIFTS game I've seen for a long time.

Not enough people got FATE? I dig it, and good luck in the recode, let me know if you need any help. I loved the feel of the game you had setup.

@Kumakun

Whoo, yeah, that'd be a right pain in the keister. Each book and splat book looks to contradict the other, so you'd basically have to pick one of the cores and force everything else to conform. For example, depending on your core and splat, 'partial borg' could either mean only one hand altered or everything but a leg.

THANK YOU

It has been driving me insane and I knew it had to be something I'd done since it wasn't happening to anyone else.

Not on Earth yet but plan to get there by the end of this year. Small but we have enough activity. The combat system is the one Transformers 2005 used until it closed a couple of years ago I think it was.

Thanks for all the replies, guy! I like all types of horror (my old post was just an example! Doesn't have to all be WoD set.)

Supernatural, psychological - I'm pretty keen for a number of things. So far, so good, I'll have to see what I can get a feel for. Keep'em coming! If there are more that come to mind that is.
