Recruitment


Since the recent and tragic death of one of the games that I am DMing, I would like to try to start a new game. The problem is that I have two ideas which I think are equally good and only time to run one more game right now. To help me out of this dilemma, I present both of them to you, the players, to decide what the next game that I run will be since even though the DM is a god, there is room for democracy sometimes.

  • My first idea is for a game set in a Late Medieval world (still feudal but with advancing technology including eventually the first firearms) which is undergoing a rebellion against the dynasty which has ruled much of the world for over a thousand years. This game would likely wind up rather kingmaker-esq and takes place in the future of the world of my remaining Bronze Age game.
  • My second idea is for a mid-level interplanar game which is a little bit harder to describe. It involves the characters being reincarnated after their death and working to find their place in the planes and discover if there is a larger purpose to their condition. This game I will try to make as sandboxy as possible while still maintaining enough direction for a PbP and I intend the focus to be on exploring and interacting with the setting.

    If you are interested in either of these ideas, vote for one or the other and in a few days I will see if either of them has gotten significant interest, and which one of them the consensus of the community likes better. Keep in mind that right now I only have the time to select one of these ideas.


  • Interplanar game sounds much more interesting. There is usually very little chance to play in such settings, so my vote goes for the second idea.


    My vote goes to the interplanar campaign as well, I'd definitely join if you put one up.


    Since there is a glimmer of interest for the interplanar game, let me explain that the interplanar setting I have in mind is wildly divergent from the standard Material/Inner/Outer Planes setup.

    The conceit of this setting is that it is essentially an infinite number of Material Planes all floating around in the Astral Plane with the Traditional Outer/Inner Planes mostly blocked off. Each Plane is essentially its own mini-setting, but can communicate to varying extents with the rest of the multiverse.

    Plane Shift spells have a certain "range" and thus long distance travel on the Astral Plane (in Spelljammer style ships of course) is required to go between major planes, so most time would probably be spent on the Astral Plane and various Demiplanes. There are still outsiders and gods and such, but it just works a little differently.

    I would be interested in the interplanar game as well.


    This is Samaerew from your dead game (JC).

    I'm definitely interested in either. Particularly going mid-to-high level, since all my current PbPs are low level. I'll build a character when you've got construction details up.

    And I promise not to do anything as ridiculous as the last time you used the interplanar setting.


    Since the unanimous consensus seems to be for the interplanar game, I will put up a recruitment thread this afternoon. Stay Tuned.
