Sooo ... after losing access to the net for more'n a year, I find my account actually intact.

As I guess my warcraft game I started in not salvagable, I would be acually interested in doing Nobilis.

Anyone interested in playing?

I assume that you a Nobilis rulebook.

Hello mr Sophist.

I'm on my way of obtaining it.

What type of gameplay do You prefer ?

... Wow, so funny you mention that. I was trying to convince a friend of mine to play Nobilis on here but she was like, "Oh, no one will play Nobilis." Now she has a game to play? Perfect!

I was going to get the book, but can't find a good price. Any recommendations?

>.> Yeah, that friend would be me. Yes, I'm interested in playing! Depending on things, but, this is me expressing interest.

Count me in as interested in some Nobilis

Hello everyone, good to hear you want to play.

We're enough to play, so let's start right away. I do appreciate much input,
but here is the basic idea: the Imperator will be largely unavailable, being so
heavily wounded be the Excrucicans, but not quite dead. You people happen upon
the scence, where it manages to slay the last attacker, all of its nobles dead.
You are chosen to be the next Nobles, but are given some time (say 7 days,
7 hours and 7 minutes) to clear up your mortal life.(and maybe scout for anchors)

I want to begin play at this point with still a good grasp on the mortal(?) life
of your nobles-to-be. However, you are probably not the run-of-the-mill mortals,
since you made your way to the scence of balltle inside the realm. In my mind,
the characters are flower mages, upper crust cultists or other semi-supernatural
mortals(?). Of course if you want a straight mortal and have some explaination
how you entered the realm, i am open to it.

I give you a wide leeway in what kind of power you are, but of course once you've
chosen, we need some undertsanding about the extension and the limits of the
comcept.
Realm design is mainly up to the players. Your Imperator is a wild one, what you
have seen of it was in the giant form of an ancient huntress, almost mortaly
wounded.

I think that is all you need for a start, I'll hammer out the rest this evening
at home.

Rkandur I am not exactly ceratin what you mean by gameplay ... I intend to do a standard PbP game, 4-5 days a week, with more often in combat.

Jdvn1, I don't know cheap source of a rulebook, I otained mine for about 40 Euros in retail , but I don't regret a single cent of it.

Aww. I apologise everyone, but I'm forced to retire from playing. Have fun guys.

When will you want to start?

I'm very new to the game and the system, so I might take a little longer to make my character. Amy will probably help me a little, though. I think I'm the newbie here, though.

I will start playing as soon as there is one character done. Since the introductionary secnario is about saying goodbye to your mortal self (a sort of Prelude if you want), I can begin with those who are done with their concept.

For a beginning it will suffice to let me know your concept. Then I can prepare a more detailed description of how it all begins. This will entail a more detailed descrpition of the chancel so far, which can be changed as the players pursue their own visions.

I sense, however, that a bit more structure is needed here. So I will include a descrpition of the Regina(p.12)* as i see her and the chancel(p. 135 ff.) so far here. I will also give the campaign a title, that may help you even more. I will create an thread in the "Rouges gallery" forum, where above descriptions will be posted, and wher you can post your characters. We will discuss any changes to Imperator and Chancel here, while any changes will be edited into that other thread.

I am in no hurry although I had this idea for a Nobilis Story for quite some time and I am eager to try it out.

if you want more guidance for Character creation, don't hesitate to ask. I know that NOBILIS is a lot to take in, but I really think it's worth the while. There a some nice downloads on the Guardians of Order Homepage here at the bottom of the page which might prove useful.
