(this is if Shaun will let me of course. I don't want to make him angry since he wants to do one in a chatroom that I want to join :) )

I'm thinking of creating an actual RPG too... an actual one with attributes and leveling up (in the Co-Op) writing thread and seeing if it plays out well. It would take me a while to create a world and magic and all of that stuff but if there are people interested then I would be happy to do it (what else would I do in school...) but first I want to see if people would be interested in doing it...and if I have Shaun's approval.

Are you kidding? I own RPG's! :D

But as with all RPG's, it should offer the chance to improve writers skills. DUAL REIGN forces you to work with a partner, weave storylines into other storylines, and be an aggresive writer. That Zombie Apocolypse puts you in that scary situation and blablabla. The Game Arena makes you tap into an existing character, ideal of fan-fiction, etc.

Now then, how would this one help improve our skills? ^^

I'm not very good/experienced in RPGing but I'd definitely try it out.

Rafael Domination
02-19-2008, 01:39 AM
*I'd try it out too if there was more to it than just magic. I could help create the character-classes, unlockable skills, items, etc, if you add sci-fi elements into it! :P*

Edit: ello? Georgie? :P

I would probably go for this, though I'm not a fan of written RPGs that have leveling up. If you're going to do it do it right and I'll join =]]]

sorry if I sound pretentious ((I know, I am)) but I started RPing 6 years ago and did it exclusively for 5 years. If we're going to do a large scale RP then, well you get what I mean =P.

Shaun
02-19-2008, 04:06 PM
George, of course you can do this :P. Good lord, I'm not going to stop you from doing something productive for the site :P.
Besides, my RPG is scifi and would likely follow a different set of rules :P.

Rafael Domination
02-19-2008, 05:16 PM
WHAT!!!!

Sci-fi? And no one told me?

WHAIIYYY?!?!?

*Sigh...*

Shaun
02-19-2008, 05:48 PM
Cause you haven't been in the chat room when we've had the discussions :P. You should show up at noon this Saturday :P

Rafael Domination
02-19-2008, 05:52 PM
But! But! My Java!!!!

GeorgeMichael
02-19-2008, 08:20 PM
lol, I loved that. (but, but... MY JAVA!)

Rafael Domination
02-19-2008, 08:56 PM
:P

Soo...how's this RPG going?

GeorgeMichael
02-19-2008, 09:04 PM
Well, I'm thinking of having a page here on a thread for everyone's stats and have the actual RPG go for like an hour in the chatroom maybe while people are here... I'm still not sure, I'm still thinking :)

Rafael Domination
02-19-2008, 09:15 PM
The chatroom? :(

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! :eek:

*Oh well...good luck with that*

GeorgeMichael
02-19-2008, 09:22 PM
oh that's right, you can't get on... ok, I can think of other methods :)

Rafael Domination
02-19-2008, 09:31 PM
THANK YUUUUU! :D :D :D

so much.

GeorgeMichael
02-19-2008, 10:02 PM
lol, of course :)

oh and I'll have to start planning now... it will most likely be fantasy or some form of fantasy though, highly doubtful it will be sci fi

Rafael Domination
02-19-2008, 10:06 PM
Oh well, beggars can't be choosers. :P

Zaphkiel
02-19-2008, 10:13 PM
Don't worry Raffy-Raffy, I can't use the chatroom either unless I download JAVA onto my laptop, which I don't want to do since I just got the thing.

Rafael Domination
02-19-2008, 10:14 PM
Heh...continuous stats? Interesting...very interesting...

Zaphkiel
02-19-2008, 10:27 PM
I wonder if this could be the RPG of the year. That is, as long as there are no mis-haps.

GeorgeMichael
02-19-2008, 10:46 PM
ok, things I need to do...


-World Creation
-Plot
-Races and stuff like that (Expertise)
-Attributes
-Forms of leveling up
-EXP
-

Armor and weapons will have to be purchased in towns as well as items and such stuff.
If you have any ideas already of what you want to be you can tell me here so I can tell you if that race or expertise is ok. (You will get no people who can use jets, computer technology, fancy guns. [you may use maybe some form of simple gun or shotgun that I will describe better later if someone wants to use one] and such things. I will create the first starting town soon and the story. We can start as soon as everyones ready. Once I get the town done of course :)

Rafael Domination
02-19-2008, 10:49 PM
Don't forget character classes! :D

Zaphkiel
02-19-2008, 11:04 PM
Don't worry, Raf! I'm sure George can take care of himself!

Rafael Domination
02-19-2008, 11:07 PM
But can he survive me (aka, Keigane)? :P

JK...:D

Zaphkiel
02-19-2008, 11:10 PM
*Bonks Raf on the head*

Just ignore him George, even though you are good as dead on the DUAL thread. I do however, agree with you on the non-use of jets and advance tech. *cough* *cough* Raf.

Rafael Domination
02-19-2008, 11:19 PM
Ehehe...^^

That was my source of power. I can easily crush magic using tech. Glad you guys noticed that...

But yeah...don't count me out, though. I've got a lot of tricks up my sleeve. I mentioned in my profile that I love cooking up fight scenes - that means I've got a host of crazy characters at my command. And I'm not afraid to use them.


MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAhAhAhAhAhAHAAHAHAHA! :D :D :D D :devil:

*fear me*

Zaphkiel
02-19-2008, 11:23 PM
*Hits Raf over the head and boots him*

HAH! You only crush it because you use cheesy moves like Bio-bombs which are dropped over top our heads!

GeorgeMichael
02-20-2008, 12:07 AM
And puppets that do your dirty work for you!


(sorry had to get in on the sudden Raf bashing :P)

Rafael Domination
02-20-2008, 12:18 AM
Yup! That's me :P

Give me the leeway, and I'll go insane on anyone :D :D :D

Edit: how's a bio bomb 'cheesy'? It's rather efficient, I think. And devastating. :rolleyes:

GeorgeMichael
02-20-2008, 12:32 AM
ok, I'm calling on my two friends Rafael and Zaphkiel (That rhymes! it could be a movie... or a SITCOM!!!...) to help me out here. I need several species, I have expertises (which is what I'm calling them...) and I need several things.

1. What are classes? I may know, but not by that name...
2. ... ... you know, I need help with classes mostly, what is that? It sounds interesting. . .

Zaphkiel
02-20-2008, 12:37 AM
Classes are things like, Ninja, Samurai, Black Mage, White Mage, Warrior, Summoner, Thief, etc. These are what Raf is talking about, I'm pretty sure.

Rafael Domination
02-20-2008, 12:37 AM
It's a character type. Eg: assassin, ninja, pirate, paladin, wizard, berserker, knight, summoner(I call this one), ranger, vampire, werewolf, ghost, etc. Each 'character class' is granted items, powers, features exclusive only to them. If you need species, I can help too. Just give me a few specific details.

BTW: Zaph and I modelled our names off angels. Except Azrael: he's not exactly an angel...

Edit: Arg! Slow post :D

Zaphkiel
02-20-2008, 12:49 AM
I call the Ranger! I believe he uses arrows.

Rafael Domination
02-20-2008, 12:50 AM
Hoh yeah! :D

Quietus
02-20-2008, 12:53 AM
This sounds pretty cool. Can't wait to see the end product... Or, beginning product? Whatever, I just wanna see what's come up with. I may perhaps join

GeorgeMichael
02-20-2008, 12:54 AM
Oh that's what classes are


That's what I meant by (expertise) because I had no idea what they were called :P Ok, it's classes now... then I have everything I need to start now :)





Start the creation, not the RPG... sorry for the hopes :)

Rafael Domination
02-20-2008, 12:54 AM
Join! :D

I'll need as much people to kill as I can :P

GeorgeMichael
02-20-2008, 01:03 AM
You'll all most likely be together Raf... I doubt that there will be any killings of fellow YWO members :)

Rafael Domination
02-20-2008, 01:07 AM
What? :D

Oh well, I'll just kill my minions for fun, then :P

*I must see blood!*

How will the characters 'level up'?

GeorgeMichael
02-20-2008, 01:16 AM
There will also be no blood, this will be an RPG rated G








I'm kidding :)


and leveling up. You'll just have to wait and see. :)

Quietus
02-20-2008, 01:17 AM
Awesomeness... Can't wait!:D

Rafael Domination
02-20-2008, 01:20 AM
Feh! :P

I can stand it... :D

Shaun
02-20-2008, 01:25 AM
Raf, seriously, you need to talk to Andy to figure out why it isn't working for you! The chat should work for everyone!

Rafael Domination
02-20-2008, 01:26 AM
I'll try one more time to get that Java...

Sci-fi here I come! :D

Has it started up yet?

Shaun
02-20-2008, 01:44 AM
No, it hasn't started yet because I'm doing all the same things George is doing...I almost wonder if he and I should just do it together :P.

Rafael Domination
02-20-2008, 01:46 AM
Maybe you should :D

Sci-fi vs. Magic. I originally had it to be in VERSUS, but I wouldn't mind one like that! :P

Shaun
02-20-2008, 04:58 AM
Well I was thinking of incorporating a little magical horror into my SF universe. Maybe some really wicked critters and such. I want it to be really gritty and fun. Mercenaries, bounty hunters, smugglers, etc. Sort of like Firefly meets Han Solo meets Dystopia meets Battlestar Galactica meets Call of Cthulu meets Boba Fett. That sorta thing. Aliens and weird things and fun stuff like that. Lots of guns, space ships, and fun violence :D

Edit: Maybe something George and I should work on is creating a system we can both use for our different games so people don't have to worry about different rules, since they would all be the same. People could easily jump from one game to the other.

Rafael Domination
02-20-2008, 07:06 PM
Okay....I simply must give you a thanks point if you do that! :D :crazy:

That would be sweet beyond imagining!

Shaun
02-20-2008, 08:01 PM
Which part is sweet, the SF part or the part with George?

Rafael Domination
02-20-2008, 08:46 PM
Both! :D

And the part where you can jump from one RP to another.

Shrike125
02-20-2008, 08:48 PM
well, there is an easy way to track this thing..use a database. we have been creating one in ICT, and i could make it anyway...lol..im ace with them, and i play D&D so i know how to do stuff like this..I LOVE SCI-FI RPG..GO FIREFLY, plus i ant get on the chat either

Shaun
02-21-2008, 01:21 AM
Raf, you'd have to have a different character for each game, it just means you wouldn't have to learn a new set of rules or anything. The rules would be all the same.

Actually, Andy and I have been talking about putting up a webpage for all the info. I can design that, since it would be simple HTML, so if George and I really work on this together it would be pretty awesome.

Rafael Domination
02-21-2008, 04:14 AM
Ooh...that seems quite interesting.
