This isn't actually a MtG game, but its a neat empire game

Kazastankas, why don't you just make a normal MtG RP? I'd sign up!

I always wanted to be a black-mana necromancer.......or maybe a noble blue-mana human wizard.

AndyBloodredMage · 06-21-2004, 10:25 AM

A noble human would probally be white, noble merfolk and whatnot would be blue.

Dragonsbane · 06-21-2004, 10:54 AM

no, the richest human cities specialized in blue-mana magic....and most merchants are blue-mana, too, and nobles tend to be wealthy merchants who hobnobbed with the king way back when....

White mana humans are paladins, poor but brave, or clerics, or fanatics........

anyway, I meant "noble" as in a personality trait.....and that isn't restricted by color (thought White mana creatures claim they have it all, the bastards!)

Okay. So let me see if I got this figured out as I would Like very much to role play.

1) Characters are made for each game, so therefore there is no where to post character type sheets, am I right?

And 2) (this is the one that's confusing me) the worlds are made by the person who starts the game.

I know your stance on fan based characters, but what about worlds? Is that also a no? Say like a Naruto style world, or something out of a Final Fantasy game? You'll have to forgive me if this has been answered already, this thread was kind of hard to follow, which scares me...

(1) Yes, there are no 'Universal' or 'carried-over' characters. Most RPs begin with a sign-up, where they give you the basic overview and are then followed by a sign-up 'form'. So basically the character sheets are in the sign-up.

(2) Uhm...whats so hard to follow about making a unique world?

But don't think we don't allow [BLANK]-type worlds. Theres been a Van Helsing RP, a few FF RPs...if you can find a show or movie or game or whatever that has an interesting world AND can support ten or so people (thats an average-ish, you can also limit the number), then by all means go ahead, but if whatever you're thinking of can't happen, just create your own world and your own rules.

Like somebody is bound to say, it'll be helpful if you join a few RPs first to get the general overview of how things work before diving in with your own RP.

(And this thread is confusing because at random points people come in and ask something kinda stupid, then we all try to answer at once, then we kinda just talk about whatever)

Got 'cha. Very well, I will "search" for a "rp" to "join." And one day I'm sure I'll get over my compulsion to use "quotes" for no reason.

No, thanks for your help.

Just wanted to clarify that, as a writer, I find RPing is a great way to get over writers block, so I wanted to make sure I had a handle on the rules here.

Because I'm curious...is putting something like "must be able to write a sentance that does not contain lol, dude, I r0x0rs j00r s0x0rs and other such crap" allowed? Basically banning the illiterate the stupid from a game?

lazy man · 07-25-2004, 04:25 PM

Yup, anyone stupid who tries to roleplay IHMN hunts down and utterly destroys. You seem smart though, so you shouldn't worry until you join an RP and actually roleplay.

Jon Garrett · 07-25-2004, 04:29 PM

Well...I was and still officially am a mod at Avariel, so I can probably RP to a point where people don't eat my brains.

Next query...are there any limits to what we can RP? I didn't see an 8-Bit based RP, for example, and was curious as to whether Brian would kill us all if we did. But I dunno if any kinds of RP would be banned...I can see somethings like the Mega-Hentai RP to make La Blue Girl look tame thread might get shut down, of course. I mean is there anything more mundane we can't do.
