I've played pathfinder as well as read a lot of dungeons and dragons stuff. I've been apart of alot of freeform which probably contributes to me being crap at mechanics,lol.I think I like the idea of creating my own system. With the way sage put it no matter the work it takes,when it's finished I will have a skeleton that I can make many different skins for. That sounds truly exciting!

Yeah, if you want to be.
Awesome I'm totally throwing my hat into the ring for the dark tower game whenever you run it. With that out of the way,I'm terrible at free for sheets so I guess Im gonna just use my imagination but how will I determine things like health for a character like mine. His dexterity,perception,wisdom and endurance are all amazing. His strength would be pretty decent as well with his only glaring weaknesses being his intelligence and charisma.(I'm assuming his amazing riddle solving abilitys is chalked up to something like wisdom).

Off the top of my head maybe a level 10 gunslinger with like 20+ Dex and two +5 revolvers (advanced firearms)with whatever special abilities make sense.

Maybe some magical rule to represent that Ka is a circle in case he gets killed=)

That sounds great! I'm going to write something up as soon as I get off work tomorrow

See I already have a crimson king to be at odds with now all we need is a Randall Flagg,lol


In my mind the focus was never to escape but to make it to the top and live out their lives in the luxuries providing to he best of the best in the prison. It's all about your scores that the judges give you mixed with how pumped you get the crowd. Although if players wanted to try to escape I suppose that's always a option as I want this to be as u restrictive as possible. I expect it to be a very heavy Gm game where it's less about finding the correct answer to a solution and more about coming up with unique ways to interact with the world around them.
I would want it to be a decent mix of rp and combat.


Lmao,ha the was pretty cool,you helped me understand that perfectly. So I guess I need to pose a new question what path do I need to take in order to somehow make this a playable skin so I can be apart of this story?


2 and 1


I'm am super interested in this. I've actually played a couple free form games that were very Gm heavy due to a a lack of barriers,I've come to find as long as the Gm is fair but not afraid to reign control the games are very fun.
I would love to be Roland Deschain the gunslinger from the Stephen King book(not the movie) The dark tower.


What is it?

Battle Points-Battle points are the currency for prisoners and the only way prisoners can access the arena shop and gain the items they need.

Fame-Every competition,every fight,every event can gain you recognition. According to how the judges grade you,how the crowd reacts to you and how much your involvement changed the course of the event. The higher the players fame the harder competitions they can enter,the harder the competitions the higher the battle points awarded.As the prisoners fame rises they are given access to better parts of the prison,some parts of which were even built to function as small towns and communities. The best parts resembling luxurious castles and huge properties.Their lives improve with their fame.
Hunger-It represents how hungry you are. You must eat at least twice a day,if you fail to do so by the end of the day you will lose 25 hunger points for each meal you missed. If you hit zero all your stats will be cut in half and you will run at half speed with a chance of falling unconcious.
Level up- when leveling up a prisoner gains a technique point,a fav rank point,a attribute point


I'm gonna put up character creation then explain the stuff I it.

To begin creating get your prisoner roll a d12 to select your ability. Once you have your ability choose how you want your 10 free Stat points to be allocated,all stats start at 1.
Pick 2 technique points which go towards what you can do with your power easily.Get +1 for each rank.
Next pick 2 fav,ranks and 1 dis,rank. Each rank in a particular fav,or dis adds a +1 or -1 respectively to any rolls concerning them.
Examples of fav/dis include:
+1 to dodge rank:1
+1 to disarm rank:1
-1 to intimidation rank:1

Technique and Rank Scale
1 point rank 1
1 point rank 2
2 points rank 3
2 points rank 4
3 points rank 5
3 points rank 6

Fame starts at 0.

Add 500 Battle points to your character sheet.
Last but certainly not least fill min your description. Every character starts with a blue-grey prison uniform with bare-feet.


All that stuff is what I'm still working on,as I said I'm a writer,I've always created story lines,characters and worlds. The numerical mechanics are what I'm needing help with. I'm gonna continue putting up my skeleton to show what I have,so I can give a good understanding of what I need.
This itself isn't a specific scenario it's the core of where the game will begin. It can be any named prison but it's always a prison. There's not just battles,there will be obstacle courses,death foot races,silly but deadly events.
The concept will be the players imagination mixing with the wardens(gm) imagination. The powers are to be mixed with a large number of unique items,where the characters will combine items and the like to create techniques,strategys.In example:my favorite the hydrokinesis power. I would get some kind of sealable containers to fill with water and place on my body. Then I would use pressure control to fire them off like bullets. As I said I'm more of a player/writer but I would love to figure out how to make this a workable thing so I can play it. That is literally my goal,to play this game.


Psychokinesis:Has the ability to cast illusions. Can sense as well as exploit fears,even making them come to life. If the opponent fails the save rolls against this characters illusions they can do real damage to their body.

Savage:The Savage can transform his body/body parts into many different things as well as grow new ones. All the users transformations are geared toward monsters. From razor claws to giant fangs,horns or tusks,as well as demonic looking tentacles,scorpion like tails,or even wings. With practice can hold multiple transformations at once even transforming the whole body.


Pyrokinesis:The ability to manipulate fire. Can control it's shape,temperature as well as creating a lot of inferno from a tiny spark. The Pyro kinetic suffers no burns or pain from fires.

Shadowstalker:can produce shadows.Has the ability to teleport between shadows as well as give some limited life to shadows.

Energy production:can produce energy out of hands,mouth,eyes and feet. The energy can be used in many different forms as well as being searing or concussive.


Metal control:Can bend,shape as well as control metal at will. Can even alter the density of metal within a certain radius according to the user's ability. With practice the radius grows in size and the power user gain s the ability to make metal constructs giving them temporary life. Can create machines at a incredible rate.

Smoke production:Can produce smoke out of any pore or hole on the users bocy. Can transform into some and increase temperature of smoke.

Terrakinesis:The ability to grow as well as control plants instantly. Can communicate with plant life in a limited way. Can create spores from their body with various effects.

Supersoldier:The Supersoldier is a human at peak performance. Their Strength,Speed,Intelligence,Endurance and charisma are naturally much higher than a normal humans(manifesting in +2 to all stats at the character creation). Their bones are 3 times harder than a normal humans.(manifesting in higher starting health)


(Starting with my personal favorite)(There's a lot of nesis's lmao)

Hydrokinesis:The ability to control water.Can change any aspect of the water being controlled,from its form,pressure as well as temperature. Can not create water.

Telekinesis:The ability to lift objects to with your mind.With practice can manipulate many objects at one time and can even make telekinetic traps.

Rune:Can create runes on any surface with a variety of unique effects. A jack of all trades can create runes to make spikes,poison gas,tentacles,webs and anything else that the mind can imagine.The weakness of rune is that the powers are much weaker then others of the same level. It is more of a utility power not really able to output much damage,relying more on unique tactics to win the day.


The powers you can have are experiments that were performed on you against your will. To simulate this your powers are chosen with a d12 roll. The list coming is the powers in order.


Starting to put up more info now,I got cut with a chainsaw at work so it kind of hampered me lol


1 person marked this as a favorite.

Prison Arena
Welcome to Hellgate(Insert your prisons name),the most expensive maximum security prison in the world.It is also the only prison to be turned into a coliseum-like amusement park where people come from all over the world to watch the worst their planet has to offer compete for their lives in a variety of battles and games.The inmates race through deadly obstacle courses,fight in battle royals as well as one on one duels filled with killer traps and even sometimes compete in silly but deadly mini games in between the bigger events.
The prisoners are all equipped with a micro-chip/neck meter combination that can keep them alive by healing anything that would kill them(doesn't activate for anything but life threatening injuries).The micro-chips are programmed to display 100 health points on the prisoners neck meter. It calculates damage for any injuries sustained by the prisoner then subtracts the number from the 100 health points given. When the number reaches zero the prisoner no longer has the protection provided by the embedded micro-chip.

Now we at Hellgate believe in providing our customers with a truly unique experience,to that end we have done many many experiments and have come up with all kinds of augmentations we can apply to our prisoners. You my friend are a detriment to your fellow man,you have been condemned,you are a new prisoner here,your gonna die here. At least you will be able to do things beyond your wildest dreams.


I'm interested in playing a librarian expert who is a knowledge based character and is a expert at mediating(persuasion). How would I turn this into a lv.5 character sheet? I fairly new,like I've never played a whole game


So I checked it out. How would you feel about a mutant whose mutant nature comes out somewhat physically. I want him to have natural weapons(blades,possibly coming from his palms) with teleportation as a synergy,it's part of a specific mutation that he and his clan go through. I'm planning on making him from a clan of assassins who cultivate this along with a few other mutations/powers. In my mind they have been established as well as working in the shadows for a long time.
I'm along the line of thought that he has been sent out on his own to prove his worthiness I don't see him as a bad guy,rather as a anti-hero style character.
A few questions.
I'm not sure on the character creation.It says we are supposed to do it as a group,soooo?
Do you have some sort of template we might be able to look at for a acceptable character sheet?


Hahahaha! That made me laugh hard,this is great stuff. I'm going to see if I can find all the info on it and I'll give you something more concrete


Awesome,I'm gonna begin putting the rest of the info on here shortly. There is quite a bit of it,so it might take a little while. I'm going to put it up in pieces.In regards to your dm experience,it would help unfortunately while I love creating,I've never enjoyed the idea of being a Gm(I'm a player through and through) so the mechanics are kind of my issue. I think you will understand once you see what I have,thank you so much for the interest. I really want to finish this so I can play it.


Hi my name is Blood! I have a game I have been working on for a long time(albeit with a big break in the middle,lol),it was originally inspired to be a Deadman wonderland fan game but has since became so much more. It has now become a concept for a prison arena battle scenario not based on blood but different unique power sets. It's still pretty bare bones,as I'm a creator but have never been a gm(I originally began working on this with the intention of getting someone else to gm it so I could play,lol) I really need some testers who could help me with the actual mechanics of a good tabletop,I'm borrowing get heavily from the day system but it is also very Warden(This games Gm) driven. I really hope this sounds interesting too someone as I would love to share your creation so far.
As for what will happen,the game will be ran very loosely,figuring out tweaks as we go,I plan to alter things as we play with input from the testers,I am extremely open to any and all critiques as I really just wanna make a game that I want to play. I look forward to hearing get from you!!


I love lovecraftian horrors,this sounds like a really fun world to explore. If I got to play I already have my character in mind I would wanna be some sort of follower of one of these gods,with the intention of gaining power(will work out why I want power. Maybe some deep seated fear of being too weak to survive the world that he views as a meatgrinder?who knows?


No experience with either but that just makes me that much more excited for it,I love when new situations unfold . A few questions, in this what would the options be. Are we restricted to just normal humans or could we be some kind of mutant or super variant. What types of ideas would be ok if we were to choose a normal human?(cop/detective,cultist,former political figure/celebrity,ninja/martial artist/billionaire(Batman!!),cashier from the local food mart)


The drow story sounds really fun,it reminds me of Drizz't . I would love to journey into the underdark,it would be a adventure I've always wanted but never got. The dwarves sound really fun too.


Dude I haven't gotten in any games yet but I have read so many forgotten realms books.I honestly would be ok playing just about any build as long as my character story and personality was my own. My favorite style of characters to play are utility characters(I love their weird uniqueness) but I also love ninja,sorcerers,and thieves. My favorite Stats to base my character off is charisma and dexterity (in that order).
I usually play chaotic good but I'm down for anything,although I'm not the best at playing lawful characters,lol.
I usually play characters with a friendly demeanor. I'm really excited to get a game going I hope we are a good fit. I've always wanted to try pathfinder it seems very fun.


Awwww dude if I get to play I can't wait to checkout the coast of teeth it sounds really cool.I really love pirate setting type stuff so the idea of sailing get on a big ship,dealing with the other passengers while simultaneously helping out when the captain makes you and then the possibility of finding ancient treasures,it's all very exciting.


I'm still here.I ended up sticking with what I already picked,I didn't have enough the gold for a cool arrow.
Lol


Can I make a last minute change on my items?(just need to get a couple different arrows.


I am so excited for this.It's gonna be awesome to play in a sandbox world.I also love the idea of the no level scaling,that way everything doesn't come down to "kick it's ass"lol,I like the thought of having to figure our way out of stuff we couldn't possibly win fairly and finding a way to bend the odds in our favor.I'm so pumped


My bad if I did this wrong or didn't follow the right rules,but he's my guy.

My apologies still getting the hang of it,so 3 × 10=130


starting gold: 5d6 ⇒ (5, 2, 2, 1, 3) = 13

My guy is a young man who is from a secluded village hidden deep within a maze like forest,where his and three other families have been it's guardians for centuries.The Yakuras are rumored to have the blood of lycans.Each were rumored to be very powerful in vastly different ways all the way back to Blood Yakura who was kai's ancestor and rumored to have been able to transform into a terrible beast.At the age of turning (in the village of fang around 19-20 years old)to prove themselves to be capable guardians the potential guardians are given a journal by the current head of their families and sent out to fill the book with amazing adventures so that one day they may return and take the guardian exam.Only one person from each family may pass and become a guardian,each individual has one chance only to pass the exam if they fail they must leave the village never to return.Now Kai has began his journey hoping to one day return and become the guardian from his family.

(I'm not sure how you feel about lycans but if they dont exist here I figured it could just be a myth)


Also I would like to know how you feel about the alternate class spell-less ranger.I would really like to be a ranger for this campaign but do not enjoy using magic.


Definetly throwing my hat in.I'll make up something with your criteria.Pretty sure it's gonna be along the lines of a human,good natured fisherman,very friendly type with good sense of humor who wants to experience the world.


Very interested as I've never been one for magic.I would play a spy who is gonna be a jack of most trades.
