Hi,
I’m trying to set up a RPG game with some friends. I’ve been building the sim, but is anyone else interested? Here’s some details:
Second fantasy – a medieval/fantasy RPG game where city rules and values of justice are shaped by the players.
Intro
In a Dieing world, what is considered justice and honor is decided by the victor. A place where a prince or a proper can change the cause of all the land. The world has to rise from the ashes and be shaped a new by its people... All those who dare to dream shape what justice and civilization means.
What is it?
Basically almost all the rules are set by the players only basic of rules like No age play and anything too overly violent (some blood etc is fine but just nothing too horrific) or anything against the basic TOS. Most aren’t set in stone only Sim rules are set.
From that anyone can shape the way the town is run. It isn’t a lock down society of climbing social ladders or endless pointless attacks. Outlaws/people who disagree with the rulings can overthrow them and seize power and change the way that the town is run. Basically how ever they image, open fighting or blackmailing to get laws passed or a town guard to over look them. Though if they do take over the town gorilla style warfare or plots against could ensue. So managing the town is important part of it to stay in power for longer. Though theses always going to be someone who gets power hungry.
Short back-story more to come:
High Council Decree:
We regretfully inform that our Beloved Lady and queen; Gladrianae Trivarn, Has passed away. Her daughter and Heiress to the throne; Alyanis Trivarn, wishes to make public her last words.
“Once our world was a thriving land, which stretched further then the deepest oceans. From the top of the accent mountains our world stretched and shone across the distance. Our town was once a jewel, a beacon that shone out across the lands to the other kingdoms and across the vast seas to the southern content. But our world was dieing. Slowly the mist dissented and all which was left was a mire ghost of its former self. Our world’s life blood, the magic was drying up. Belief was dieing.
Slowly one by one the great cities that dotted our world died. There days became dark, shored in the dark fog and clouds which blotted out the sun. These chocked the land and air and people. Till nothing stood, nothing but an empty back void.
With out belief, our world’s mana could not be restored, so slowly as it flowed though each of us, living and breathing, it was consumed. The nothingness filled the void which our world could not repair. The link with the twin world was broken. The River of believe that flowed into our world maintaining our existence, while in return our world supplied hope to the twin world.
The best and brightest of our remaining people attempted to prevent the last of our kind from being consumed by the darkness. There only solution was that born out of desperation. Our last attempt to save our world was to rip it from its current existence. To place it along side the twin world. To merge them as one.
Yet it did not continue as planned. Instead of merging we became balanced along the stream link. Not quite in the twin world’s not quite out of it. Merged half way between. ‘Ghosts’ of the other’s world appearing in ours. Not quite in our world but not in there’s.
Our proud city Trivern, is the last remaining city of our world. Although the spread of the void has ceased. We are lost in this world between worlds. An island lost in sea. So many ‘ghost’ strange worlds, with wonders we can’t even imagen. Though one thing we have learnt… we cannot interact or items which are not possible in our world cannot affect our world. They are just ‘ghosts’ to us. Only things which are natural to our world can become whole.
Even with all these strange occurrences and trying to cling on to survival we still have the age old problems in Trivern. Most of our old laws hold no recollection to Trivern’s new face. Most of the citizens are refugees from cities consumed by the void. Trivern must rise from the ashes and build itself a new.” Gladrianae Trivarn
