[QUOTE="QuaziquestGM, post: 7124302, member: 22559"] Wanting 4-6 players for an unusual game. Rats of NIMH meets DND. Posting frequency every other day or so (but more preferred) . I will be doing some international traveling in the next couple weeks so there may be interruptions. Or I may be stuck in an airport coffee shop for 8 hours writing game replies. I have a 4 month summer break, so I have time for this again. Setup: You live in cages and Daddy feeds you and pets you and teaches you tricks and plays games with you. Daddy is big and dark and wears grey robes. You have brothers and sisters in the other cages on the shelf. Sometimes Daddy takes them away. Sometimes Daddy changes them. Sometimes Daddy brings new ones. You don’t remember anything before Daddy. You know there was something before you started remembering, and you think you have changed somehow, but you don’t really understand. You just wait for your turn to play and time to eat. Character creation. (No stats yet. Description first. Make something that is mobile and able to go on an adventure. I may tweak to fit the set up. ) Create a mix-match creature.
