Interest Check: Shared creative setting

[Herobizkit]

Dibs! lol

 

[Walking Dad]

Great

Sounds great. I love the setting . Count me in, I'll figure out the system as we get started.

Is there anything off-limits technology-, race-, pantheon- or magicwise?

 

[Dr Simon]

I guess I should get things moving on this front!

Okay, so anyone else interested, say so now.

DrZombie - no limits, really, although in the best style of improv there will be some genre conventions. As I said earlier, I'm thinking of a setting along the lines of Jack Vance's Dying Earth, or Gene Wolfe's New Sun series, so kind of far future so as to have come back around again; thus extremely advanced tech and magic (which may be the same thing) can rub shoulders, but beyond that it's a case of seeing what people bring to the party.

I'm interested. I've some doubts about the system, but a good group and GM can make any system fun...so lets give it a try.

 

[Walking Dad]

Let's do this! And the system is very easy, Shayuri. Combat can drag if you don't use the combat options, but they are all listed on a free pdf sheet:

I'm still interested. I have zero knowledge of the series you referenced, but I doubt it will matter a whole lot. I can get my inspiration elsewhere.

You don't know Jack Vance? HERETIC ! BURN HIM !

No really, you should check out his books, they're worth your time.

Jack Vance - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia should get you started, and if you only read one book I'd go for Eyes of the Overworld

Actually, it turns out I have some Jack Vance in my library of books I someday intend to read, but I don't think they are the "Dying Earth" books.

I did some research yesterday and they do seem interesting.

He wrote some good SF as well. Tschai, allastor,.. For some weird reason he was hugely popular in Belgium and the Netherlands, to such extent that one of his books got translated and published in dutch before coming out on the english market
