[OOC] A play by post game
Posted: Wed Nov 25, 2015 4:43 am
This is an interest check as the contents of the game and rules are being settled on. I had originally thought of running this over at Dizzy's site (osrgaming) but wanted to check here also. So let's get on with the game info:
This will be a play by post game using the rule system of Basic Fantasy RPG with some supplements and house rules. Starting Characters will be normal locals from the surrounding areas and will become level 1 adventurers (you will get to pick a class) if they survive the opening events (I'm starting this off as a grinder).
Now some of the setting info:
Autumnpeak is a small coastal town, occupying the southern banks of the Autumn River's mouth as it feeds into an inland sea. It enjoys a fair trade but its small harborage and geographic isolation prevents it from becoming a bustling city. Autumnpeak is the last bastion of civilization as travelers from the more established kingdoms would call it. It enjoys the relative safety of its position, surrounded by open countryside with nearby forests and mountains. Depending on your direction of travel, Autumnpeak is either your last stop to nowhere or first stop to somewhere.
As the Autumn festival arrives, everyone is bustling about getting ready for the coming winter. Food storage is at an all time high pace in an effort to be finished prior to the festival's start. On the last day before the beginning of the festival, everyone is given leave of their chores and paid their wages so that they may enjoy the merriment. Each of you have enough coins left over after paying for your room and board at the Broken Coin Inn for the next 5 days to play some of the games and eat, drink while being merry. At the end of the festival unless something changes your fate, you will be returning back to your simple life of a local.
