Mistborn: Adventurers of The Mist Raiders! (Inactive)

Game Master Vrog Skyreaver

Greetings all,
It is I, your humble GM. Per my agreement with a mysterious entity who shall be forever (or until they post in this thread) nameless, I have agreed to run a game of the Mistborn RPG, by Crafty Games.

There are a few caveats that I will mention up front:

*The first is that I haven't read the books. Yes, yes, I know

Fortunately, the PDF is pretty well put together in terms of setting and history, and so I have at least some idea of what the setting is like.

*Secondly, unlike a normal recruitment, this one will be a bit weird:

Since character creation is a group activity, those selected will be building their characters as a cohesive group.

That's not to say that you can't have an idea of what you want your character to be, just note that your end character might be a bit different than you initially imagined it.

This means that I will be taking the first 4-5 respondents who are willing to deal with all of my caveats. You must also post "I have read and understand all the Caveats, and I am willing to abide by them." somewhere in your dot post.

*You will need to have your own copy of the book, which you can pick up from Crafty's site for about 15 bucks.

*I will not be using a Battlemat, for a couple of reasons: one, I truly believe that they slow down play, and two, this system doesn't really require it.

*Finally, under no circumstances should you read spoilers that do not pertain to you. This is a campaign setting that revolves around secrets, which have a really power to enact change.

Also, It's one of my biggest pet peeves. No, seriously.

I will select the first 4-5 people who have a complete application to this game, or the first lesser group of people should less apply. Note that I already have one person with an accepted submission, so that will give us a group of 5-6 people (ideally).

If I haven't turned you away with my big list of stuff, feel free to apply to join us!

Woohoo! Dot.

Just so the others know, I am the unnamed entity. Also, I have read and understand all the caveats, and I am willing to abide by them. Above and beyond that, I agree with them.

This sounds like a heck of a game. I have read and understand all the caveats, and I am willing to abide by them.

Excellent. (at most) 4 to go!

I'll join this game. I've DM'd this system a bit but never gotten a chance to play it.
Is it Mistborn or Alloy of law?

I'd be interested, to echo Solar27 are we looking at Final Empire or Alloy of Law timescale - or something else?
I am of course assuming you're at least familiar with the timeline there..?
Though it may be interesting to see the world as someone who's come at the series from the RPG side rather than the novels...

We will be playing during the time of the Final Empire, if that is what is being asked.

Also, since I know next to nothing about the world (other than what is provided in the RPG), I'm probably going to step on some plotlines or characters that you might like from the novels. If so, consider this an apology for that happening, but I won't make changes to fit Sanderson's narrative, as I believe it's more important for us to stick to the narrative that we're collectively telling.

Completed Submissions: 1/5

Given that character creation is taking place as a group activity once players are chosen, how do we apply beforehand?

You already have.

Well, there ya go. I’m so far ahead, I think I’m behind!

Indeed =P

Just gonna set a little BUMP here.

Oh man am I glad for the timing of that bump. I've always been curious about this system but I never knew anyone that was running it. I've even based some of the aspects of a homebrew quest on the setting.

Player count 2/5

Fair enough, have to see what everyone else is but I'll probably be either a disillusioned ex-Hazekiller or a Lurcher, but I'll hold off developing too much until we're generating.

Also, I have read and understand all the Caveats, and I am willing to abide by them.

Sounds interesting.

Just to confirm that I'll join this game.

Sorry I posted under my allias

and that's 5/5. I'm going to go ahead and close recruitment. Everyone should go head on into the discussion tab and start talking about their character ideas!

I'll get the stuff posted for character creation in a few hours (once I get home from work).
