Topic awaiting preservation: Roleplaying (Page 1 of 1)

Lately, besides the riddle post all the posts have been well, quite serious. So I figure, lets releive some tension! now, I know that the Asylum has a D & D, I was wondering if any of you would like to start a PBM (play by mail) roleplay, I dont really have any set ideas, I enjoy fantasy roleplay, but I like futuristic as well (warhammer ect.). I guess this is mainly aimed at WebShaman and the D&D team, but is open to anyone who is interested.. I guess you can post here your ideas, or email me. O.o

I'm going to the moon, I cant stand it here anymore.

Do you mean a D&D play by mail, or some other type of d20 system, or something that I am missing altogether?

I've done D&D style, but ive also just done free-form, which is a bit more simple, and easy. though you guys are experienced, so I could do D&D. but whichever ya'll feel like, really I dont mind. Free form is easy, where you do no levels, but you increase in power and weaponry.. and if you do spells, you learn new ones, its really more common sense then a set system. ::shrug:: I just need somethin' to do, I work for a Graal server, called Valikorlia, and I RP there normally, but its going to bbe down for a few months, since we are re-furbishing the server, new levels, npc's, and quests, new nations, towns ect. anyways bleh, I need somthing to do. =P

Tell me how Play By Email works. I imagine it wouldn't be nearly as interactive as what I've become used to?

WOW! Graal is still around, holy...

...I used to play that years ago. I thought that they stopped getting players when they made it all pay.

I have experience with d20 Fallout, but not DnD, although I seriously doubt that I'd be interested. Playing via email doesn't sound exciting, half of the game is the social interaction, I think.

Graal -is- still around, and Valikorlia is the only fantasy-roleplaying server. its up to play now, but not on the player list. It will be pretty cool, okay enough with the plugging. anyways, email RP is fun, I enjoy the actual creating and playing of characters.. rather than the social interaction.. but thats a plus too.. anyways, its not that it isn't exciting, in the past ive found myself constantly refreshing my hotmail box, waiting for the next part, then agian, i'm a fairly avid roleplayer, and the actual story/plot is what attracts me.

Does it still play like a traditional d20 game?

Like, you send out (or the GM) what happens), then the player send in what they want to do etc?

In free form, No, then there is no GM, well there can be, but not required, but thats my own strange adeptation. but Yes, in pbm that are D&D based, and d20 based, you do have a GM, and the players send in what they want to do. email me your AIM and I'll contact ya, no use in wasting posts, well even though I do need to add some to my record..

Someone around the halls, is part of a forum, that does this...now, who was that? *strains brain*

I think it is mentioned in a thread somewhere around here...maybe do a search?

As for playing, personally...nah, I've got enough to do at the moment, with the two campaigns running on OpenRPG, and NWN. I'm still working on my Min page...and other things...no time, sorry.


WebShaman

Hmm, yes... unfortunately I also happen to be insanely busy these days... I don't think I'll be able to start another campaign at this point.

Speaking of which... Suho, could you drop into the Dragonhunt thread with your availability for this weekend? (Tikigod too if you're reading this.)

Come to think of it, I think Skaarjj is part of a Forum that does such things...I think. Maybe ask him? Ahhh...it was Ramm...sorry *sheepish grin*
