Rotku's Game Sessions
Posted: Wed Jul 15, 2009 9:23 am
Mentioned this in my DM Drought thread, but wanted to separate thread for it.
I've had so much fun DMing the past few weeks and really felt that it has gone well, so I've decided to stay on longer than I had originally planned. However, as Uni has started up again, I won't be on as much as the past three or so weeks. What I will do, instead, is set aside one time (Thursday, 11am my time - that's 14 hours from this post) which I will be on every week, and then I'll try to pop on other times when life permits. Unfortunately, I cannot really push that time much later - although could manage earlier if people wish.
I'm currently drawing up an outline for the plot. What I will be trying to do is make it lots of short mini-plots, all dealing with a central theme. That way we won't require the same people to be there each week, and people can come and go as they choose (and of course, that way if I need to leave for what ever reason, plots won't be hanging). There will, however, be a central theme, and it will have an introduction, a climax and a conclusion - just spread over many smaller stories.
The theme will be law and order. This does not mean it's restricted to Lawful characters only. In fact, it's completely the opposite. I want to play with the idea of the Law and Punishment in (a) a medieval society; and (b) a place of high magic. There may be times when the chaotic path may provide an easier road or a greater reward than the lawful one. The games will be open to absolutely everyone, provided their PCs can work as a team (and provided the PCs players aren't demanding arrogant twats who annoy me - no one in mind here, just in general).
So I'm posting this here for a number of reasons.
First : To as a general announcement. Rotku will be DMing at 11am Thursday, kiwi time, every week. That's just under 14 hours from this post.
Second : To let people know that next week I won't be DMing, and maybe the following one. I need a bit of time to get everything drawn up and plotted out.
Third : Please post below if you are interested. I know I have already asked that once before, but that's been long lost in that DM Drought thread.
Forth : Feedback! Feedback! Feedback! If you participated in my last plot line at all - even if you just made a brief appearance for one game - let me know if you have any feedback!
