Hi there.
I have an experiment in mind. Here it comes.
I need seven players. If more are willing to play, I can start a thread every seven players. The more the merrier.
The seven players will be the first humans of a new world. But I do not have a specific story in mind. You will be the ones to create it. I, as GM, -and as a God in game- will supply you the basic background.
Rules.
- Seven players. This is not a random number, and you will understand.
- Whatever your gender is, in-game I want at least 3 males and 3 females.
- No evil alignment. At least, not now.
- At the beginning you haven't any skill. You are boys and girls of 18 years, but you haven't any experience whatsoever. You know how to talk, walk, reason, but that's all. You must have a nice appearance. If you want a character sheet, you can do it with a 25 point-buy, 1 level in the commoner npc class and no skill ranks and feats, but it shouldn't be needed for a while.
That's all for now. Submit any question you might have!
Sign me up.
I'll make an av when the time comes. A pretty one.
As far as questions go, most of mine would be Why (why seven, why 3 each boys and girls, why nice appearance, why no evil, etc) but I expect all that will be answered if this gets off the ground.
I would say that - as the god who supplies the basic background - you might get more traction if you did supply the basic background. A bit of scene setting, even if the scene is "In the beginning, the world was without form, and the spirit of the GM moved across the hex paper..."

At the beginning, you will wake up in a beautiful mansion, ready to get acquainted with one another. After a short while the god will entrust to all of you a gift, which will help you define your character. After that you'll have to decide what to do. The god is a patient one and will watch over you. What will you do about the gifts? They can help the race as a whole, if you cooperate, or they can sow discord among you.
Which elements of these characters are customisable? Since they're apparently blank slates, it's hard to know the ways in which they differ from one another. Are you just looking for physical descriptions?
As you said, at the beginning you'll not differ much. Only for physical description and disposition.
Sure, I'm game.
I'd be willing to play, but can you reveal what actual gameplay would be like? Would we be champions or gods?
Sounds intriguing. Would our characters have any previous history/memory, or were they created as mature adults with a blank slate (and hence the lack of particular skills/experience)?

After the gift I would say champion.. sort of. No gods. It should be a roleplay/gestional campaign.

No previous history, they are created as mature adults.

I'm game.
Name: "Dune"
Sex: Male
Height: 6'1
Eyes: Cerulean
Hair: Bronze, waist length
Appearance: Tall with a firm frame, Dune sleeps with a peaceful, calm appearance. A prominent nose, full, clear lips, and slightly angular cheekbones highlight his face, and his long, deep blonde hair flows down his back to the top of his buttocks. Skin a hair darker from his fingernails covers his body, having no callouses except on his heels and the pads of his toes. A refined swimmer's build describes his frame, tapering at his waste, yet expanding at his shoulders to end in large hands. Dune's piercing blue eyes lay concealed behind his eyelids. Quarter-sized nipples dot his torso which rises and falls as he sleeps.
What else are you looking for concerning character creation? Other than stats, of course. However, I am unsure how to consider intelligence if these are mature adults with no background. Do they have knowledge? Do they know languages?
Name: Jen
Sex: Female
Height: 5'1
Eyes: Brown
Hair: Brown (Close to shoulder length)
Appearance: Lean and stout, tough and calm, these are words that describe her. She's not particular striking in appearance, aside from the look of depth of her eyes.

Name: "Sophas"
Sex: Male
Height: 5'2
Eyes: Hazel
Hair: Blond, close cropped
Appearance: Short and bulky, a flat clean shaven face with a pug nose and broad forehead. Thick muscles and a wide frame makes him seem squarish. Green eyes under his closed lids twitch back and forth showing a restlessness even in the grip of his soft bed. Thick fingers occasionally grasping at nothing.
Name: Moloch
Sex: Male
Height: 6'2
Eyes: Amber
Hair: Black, braided mowhawk
Skin: Dark brown
Appearance: Tall & slim, with an athletic build. He has a handsome face with angular features, and even though he's sleeping, he has a look of deep thought and contemplation painted across the landmarks of his visage.
Okay, here's something more to work with.
Name: Aidos
Sex: Female
Height: 5'8"
Eyes: Hazel
Hair: Deep brown, short and curly
Skin: Russet
Nimble and lithe of frame, gentle slopes define her tapering face. Thin but full strips of eyebrow and an elongated, flaring nose surround narrow, lidded eyes that often drift to and fro, immersed in whatever vision she alone is privy to.

Name: Luximar
Sex: Male
Height: 6' 2"
Hair spiked, 1" long pale blue in color
Eyes: sparkling silver
skin: vary pale white porcelain
Appearance: For whatever reason his hair has been cut short and is a pale blue in color, but it really brings the veins of his porcelain skin pop out in contrast. It gives him an almost carved appearance. He is, or would be of slighter better physical shape then the average humans. Also for whatever reason his fingers tips and palm have burn marks and scorches where he at one point grabbed something to hot for his skin to handle
Looks like I was too late in providing character info. Oh well.

Well that beats my 1 2e & 2PF games im DMing and 3 pbp's i am taking part in. I see I am still the student here at the Arts, even though im midway though my second decade of playing.
Yumeko
You have 4 male's and 3 female's that have woken up. Am sure you will be asked by others, are you going to recruit another batch of 7?
IF someone not playing in any other pbps wants to take my spot in the next 24 hrs, ill let you otherwise then im good to go.
Alright then. I'll start writing something up.
Here we go. Sorry for the delay!
Can I stop myself from making yet another pale, gothy woman? Of course not! I haven't used my avatar for making a character yet, so here goes:
Name: Lyriasha
Sex: Female
Height: 5' 9"
Hair: Long, straight, glossy black
Eyes: Very faint, near-white blue.
Skin: Unnaturally white
Lyriasha is a woman of striking figure, pleasingly well-formed and abundantly blessed, though even more surprising is her near total lack of colour. Where her white skin has shade to it, it is almost grey. Only the faintest touches of pink may be seen on her nose and cheeks.
So, when shall we expect this game to get rolling?
Is this to be considered dead?
It looks dead but If anyone backs out I will happily fill in a slot. I love the idea.
what about an adventure where you are the gods creating the material plane? all other planes exist, so angels, devils, dragons, and majority of planar creatures exist, but no humans, orcs, dwarves and so on.
That sounds fun.
Oh, that does sound like fun. I got races in my head I would love to create.
