Here I'd like to propose a slighly more detailed and serious RP/Chain Fiction game than perhaps some people are used to.
The game will be more like a colabrtive story in that, while each person will write and continue the story from their own characters perspective (sometimes actulying going back in time a little bit to relate how their character felt about previous events after their last post) you will be free to write dialog and actions for the others players characters as well.
While this could mean that you have the other persons character say or do something they don't want, this is unfortunly unavoidable and you just have to suck it up and carry on otherwise nothing would get done, a way to minamise this though is to give a VERY detailed character profile so the other players know what they are working with, which I'll now explain in my example.
So, whats the theme, setting and how does this work in pratice?
Being the Ork Blood Axe fan that I am, this will focus on a small 5-member mob of Ork Kommandos, my own character being the leading Nob, following them as they go on various missions across the Galaxy. Before starting the game I'll need 4-people to confirm they want to play (don't worry if you wanted to play and there are not spaces left becase no doubt in time players will want to leave for one reason or another and have their characters killed off and can then be replaced) and after we have 4 confimred, each player, myself included, will write up a detailed character profile for their Ork Kommando, their traits, are they more cunning or brutal, do they have any crazy tendiences ect (of course while there is room for variation don't forget they are still Orks!) With each person having posted a character profile I'll start with a lengthy opening post, setting the background and the current mission and while my posistion as Nob gives me a certain level of control over the direction it will take I don't want to be some controlling fascist and so I'm completlly open to the idea of players introducing ideas and plot points too as I want people to see this as a chance to be creative.
A few little points though,
1. Please for the love of sanity, no exsessive 'Ork speak' becase it's just a pain in the arse to read, I'm not saying they should speak in perfect English but think more alon the lines of crude slang.
2. If you want to communicate somthing durign the game just go OOC: (Out Of Character) after your post.
3. With regard to post lenghs I don't want to impose anytihng too restrictive, you don't have to write 5-page essays, but please at least be prepared to write at least a decent pargraph.
4. As I said earler, if you want to stop playing please have your character killed off (or give one us permision to do it) or if you would like to save your character for another time becase you just don't have the time to play right now then write a post to explain that, have them run off, captured or something.
I'm happy to answer any questions if people are unsure about things and I hope the detail does not put people off since this is just about having fun.
Finally in the space below I'll continully edit it to say how many players are needed or if the game is currently full so people seeing this topic for the first time in the future can see right away if there are spaces avalible and join in.
