Fandom Borderlands-inspired RP?

[MythyDW]

Hey there! I've just begun playing Borderlands 3, and I've been remembering how fun it was. It made me curious if I could find interest in something inspired by the game. We would likely use a custom setting, but the gameplay would hopefully be over-the-top, with a lot of guns I can give as loot, special abilities, etc.

I would likely try and keep the concept of 'Heroes in the land of outlaws' in terms of character and plot, though I would also want to play with (slightly?) more civilized urban areas, and possibly keep it open beyond more than one planet as they did in 3. It would end up with more system-type rules than other RPs in terms of abilities, but I think it could be fun!

If you're interested, please drop a message below, and feel free to ask questions, brainstorm with me, etc!

Sounds interesting. What are your expectations for players?

What kind of expectations do you mean?

 

[Gravitational Force]

What kind of expectations do you mean?

Post length, post frequency, literacy, etc.

 

[MythyDW]

Hmm... A paragraph at least, more preferred, a post a week, more preferred.. and literacy, I don't want to be too strict there but needs to be readable and understandable

Would the players be participating in a treasure hunt of sorts? Sort of like the Vault Hunts of the games?

Yup, pretty much! The players and I would be a group of treasure hunters within the intersystem, possibly all rookie friends or scouted by someone famous

I think I would enjoy something like this! I'm a big fan of the games.

I'd be glad to have you! Though I would like to ask you and Femboy Gravitational Force if you'd all prefer to be friends or just rookies who were all scouted by a famous hunter?

Also what kind of character you might want. My rookie would likely have some sort of companion, beast or robot not sure.

 

[Gravitational Force]

It'd be fun to play more experienced vault hunters.

How experienced? I wanted to go with rookie because then we could build our legacy from the start rather than have to make up tons of past trophies

 

[Gravitational Force]

Enough to be competent and established when it comes to skills.

I mean, you can still be competent with your skills and be a rookie hunter. But fair enough.

 

[Gravitational Force]

Okay

 

[MythyDW]

Okay what? I don't understand

 

[Gravitational Force]

What you said makes sense and works.

 

[Gravitational Force]

Is this still going?
