recruiting players for a mid-level steampunk campaign

Hm. I'd already given up this game for dead. I'm still interested but I'll wait to see if anything more comes of it before I bother to stat up a character.

I statted up my character and he's awesome.

 

[Ambrus]

He is indeed a very spiffy ogre, but I'm still going to wait for more definitive signs of life.

Maybe someone else could take up the reigns? If NPC Lord is letting it rot I'm sure he won't mind.

 

[Ambrus]

Are you volunteering?

Man, i really wanted to play this game. I made a very spiffy character, but i don't know if anyone would let me use him, Halfling Werebear (ecl 6, black bear instead of brown). Does anyone else want to volunteer to lead this game? (Not it)

I might be volunteering but that'd put you in two of my games. It really depends on my upcoming schedule, but steampunk is my favorite genre. However! I would be running the game in my own steampunk setting, Rivets Eternal, instead of the Iron Kingdoms analogue that NPC Lord was thinking about.

Now, before we start thinking serious about this, Rivets Eternal has this (and more):

• A world which is largely unexplored, with the main cultural focuses having been advancement of technology instead of exploration
• Lots of zeppelins powered by means both thaumaturgic and mechanical, with air-docks in both of the two major cities in the world
• Main player character races focusing around: Humans, Dwarves, Bugbears, Goblins, and Gnomes; Elves exist in the world, but have been enslaved since time immaterial
• A capital city of the Empire, called Trenchtown, wrought in the shape of a massive cog straddling a swill of a river, and a free city called Zeakaden, with strange legislature (gambling is incredibly prevalent to a point in which the "owner" of the city is annually decided via games of chance) and ruled by a caste of intelligent undead called Deadmen

But here's hoping NPC Lord comes back because I'd love to play in a steampunk game.

I think I wouldn't mind being in two of your games dave_o just means you're able to weave a great story (Dm suckup for better gear and long life) but I'll let others say if they want in before I claim a spot though I really want one

 

[Necro_Kinder]

Seeing as our potential DM has been MIA for a week, mayhaps someone else should take over. But I'd say give a bit more time to resurface.

That's what I'm thinking too, but I'll probably take up the reigns if he bails, though I'll make a new recruting thread and stuff.

Now to work on my other game!

Ir has been a while since I have tried for a game on this board. But Steampunk is just too much to turn down. Either DM would be fine with me. The character concepts would be either

Air Gnome Rogue - Daelen Deepbreath is more at home in the rigging than on any solid surface. He is a fiercely loyal man and will do anything for his crew up to and including acquiring any items that they may need to continue their journey and exploration.

Pixie Rogue or Artificer - Patch a mechanic assisting in the maintenance of the ship providing easy access to the more hard to reach places for repair. Though being able to turn invisible at will offers other unique advantages to the crew when they need reconnaissance done.

I would be more than happy with eithr character though I have not had a chance to play a pixie before.
