gauging interest
Posted: Sat May 03, 2014 8:53 am
Hello.
I've been thinking about this a while (mainly by playing Borderlands 2) But... I'm thinking a treasure hunt campaign could be fun, on NWN2 moonshaes. I did allude to it some time ago, and wanted to see if there would be any player interest in such a campaign.
Each treasure found would be a campaign in itself.. and since the final goal is the actual treasure, it 'might' be a powerful one (you won't really know until you find it, or take time to learn of its secrets.)
Nine treasures would be up for grabs... unique in their own ways, and each one only usable by particular alignments. (it would take a dangerous quest to get the allginment restrictions removed, if it even can be... still debating that one.)
I'll be focusing on GMT times, likely one or two week days and one weekend. (vague plan at this point).
All classes and alignments would be welcomed.
Different factions 'could' be supported in theory and done on different days. However, I will not be authorising any CvC over it. (sorry evil/good group.)
Low level players will be given greater consideration then higher level ones. I will attempt to keep the situation realistically balanced. It's possible that the treasures are protected that high level 'auras' are pushed away... hence why only low level chars can go into certain places. The reverse might be true for other treasures. (...what? Don't look at me like that, It will make sense somehow.)
There will be many situations. Political, diplomacy, shrewdness, as well as combat. Success and failure in each scenario can have consequences ranging from minimal to fatal.
Pirates and Thayans will be involved on the fringes, as well as drow and a few others.
Death house rule for this campaign:
A person can be brought to life... at the sacrifice of one of these treasures. (IF you find one first. Note that this in itself might have other curious consequences...)
Anyway I'm still thinking vaguely on this one...
