Fantasy Lamed: you all meet in a tavern (a fantasy rp where you write the plot) (we need more people)

[BackSet]

Welcome to the country of Lamed. Lamed is an ancient country with a rich history and many unique aspects. It's elves are engineers and its dwarves are Druids. And you are just one tiny part of that. In fact, if you hadn't met each other, you would have gone your whole life being insignificant. But here you are, in a tavern in Sebtack, the elven capital of engineering. You've met and now things are going to change. Prehaps for the better or prehaps for the worse.

Gm notes

This is a roleplay about a group of people who all meet in a tavern and end up having adventures together. Maybe they stop an evil over lord or maybe they discover a crazy scandal. Who knows. It's your job to decide.

 

[Trompe lOeil]

A classic! I'd be interested.

 

[Malanta]

I don't know how good I am at driving plot lines, but I'd be interested.

Alright, this seems cool. I think you're gonna need some top-notch improv-ers to pull it off in a way everybody likes, but sure.

Well, I know that my improv skills aren't horrible. I mean, I hang out on this other forum where most of the RPs are nothing but improv.

I think a combo of regular OOC chat and some good ol' yes and-ing will be our friend.

Yes and-ing?

 

[Trompe lOeil]

Yes and-ing?

Oh sorry, that's the improv rule that says, "if someone tells you some information, you should say 'yes, and' to it." So someone in an improv scene says, "Gee, the sky's so blue!" and the next person says, "Yes, and it's really hot out." So you're agreeing with what's presented and building on it. If the second person said "No, it's raining!" that would be weird and controlling, and would stall the scene.

It's not a perfect rule and you should definitely not always follow it, but it's good to keep in mind

*Cracks fingers*

How many characters are we allowed?

 

[Ferociousfeind]

Oooh! Improv! Something I specialize in! Yes!
(And yes my favorite pastime is stalking people I follow BackSet )

 

[BackSet]

*Cracks fingers*

How many characters are we allowed?

Not entirely sure wether or not I'll set a limit yet but I'd personally prefer if you stick to two or three just to keep things manageable.

 

[Malanta]

What kind of races can we be?

 

[BackSet]

What kind of races can we be?

Wel, there's elves and dwarves and humans and gnomes. There'll be a lore thread about this.

 

[Kenjinx]

The improv tavern idea grabbed my interest, the inclusion of Gnomes in the world kept it.

 

[BackSet]

I'll probably make the OoC and CS and lore tomorrow it tonight.

 

[BackSet]

Hey! So while y'all not a it I'll give you some lore: the gnomes and the elves have a pretty tense relationship because the elves used the gnomes as a slave race for years before the gnomes won their independance.

Fantasy - The Tall Tale Tavern (Lamed OOC)

OOC.

 

[Daunting_Doggo]

sounds cool

 

[Cinderlily]

Can I join?

 

[BackSet]

Can I join?

Sure.

 

[ThePerpetualShadow]

Mind if I join? It sounds pretty cool. Will there be magic?

 

[BackSet]

Mind if I join? It sounds pretty cool. Will there be magic?

Of course there's magic. The description says the dwarves are Druids. How could there not be magic.

 

[ThePerpetualShadow]

Awesome. Necromancy?

 

[BackSet]

Awesome. Necromancy?

Sparingly. Hard magic. Hard to learn. Hard to control. Likely to drive you insane.

 

[ThePerpetualShadow]

Yeah, I was thinking that my character should be fairly new at it anyway.

So, do I send my character sheet to you after finishing? Anything specific you want mentioned?
