Dan's Dr Who Rpg (Inactive)

Game Master Daniel Penfold 351

Just scoping for interest at this stage.

Would anyone be interested in joining a Dr Who role playing game.

Play would start in the 1st Doctor's era, i.e. 23.11.1963

Players cannot play the Doctor or one of the previous companions.

Plan will be to utilise some existing stories but to put my own spin on them.

Big fan over here.
I would be interested.

Very interested, got a bunch of books for it if we're using the same rule set

Plan is to use the standard rule set.

I'm curious, but anaware there even was a system for something like this.

If you don't have a copy of the basic rules I would suggest looking here:

In terms of basic guidelines

Starting characters come from Earth in the 1960s so the following apply:

1) No one can play as the Doctor or an actual companion of the series or other Timelords.

2) No members of Unit/Torchwood

3) No anachronistic technology, i.e. a person from the 1960s would not have a mobile phone for example.

4) No mention of events such as the Time War/etc.

5) Events described will (initially at least) be from the 1st Doctor's point of view (with some amendments) so in these terms all that is known is that the doctor is an alien, there is no mention of the TimeLords or Gallifrey at this stage.

Can everyone who is interested develop a character and post a link to them in the recruitment tab.

I am throwing my interest in the ring here. Huge fan of Dr. Who. So, we will all be humans around the 1960`s. Any problems with us using historical figure to try to flush out a character? I wouldn't mind being some wanna be musician or actor.

Yeah humans early 1960s. Can use historical figures to flesh out your character but would prefer that you don't play as a historical character.

Once we have 3 players I will start.

Still seeing if there is any interest in this.

I absolutely love Doctor Who.
Definitely dotting for interest!

@Spacefurry - it you want to create a character we can get something together.

I was thinking a movie stuntman as his occupation.
What do you think?

Movie stuntman not too bad a shout- remember though that initial setting will be London, 1963, have to be honest not 100% familiar with the history of stuntwork(!) but think that it would be pretty basic, mainly things like falling without injury etc and maybe basic explosive work/motorcycle stunts (e.g. Steve Mcqueen in the Great Escape) but other than that should be fine.

Anyone else have character ideas?

Still open for players if anyone is interested.
