Description:

Torchwood is an e-mail based RPG game based on the TV series "Firefly".

The game is set in and around the same time as the TV series "Firefly",
on-board an entirely new Firefly class ship, with a new crew and new
challenges ahead.

Take a look around the site and if you are interested, then please come

Torchwood is a Collaborative Fan Fiction Environment, which is a form of
Play by E-mail RPG.

Traditional PBeM RPGs have extremely quick post turnaround, allowing a
high degree of character interaction, whereas Torchwood is played more
slowly and stresses well-written, generally more lengthy and often
complete posts.

Torchwood has more in common with the old-fashioned snail-mail RPGs than
modern mailing list or BBS-based games. If you enjoy leaving 'tags' for
other players to respond to the post you just wrote, then you might not
enjoy Torchwood.

On the other hand, if you enjoy writing elaborate stories in a colourful
setting with well-developed characters, then Torchwood is the place for
you !.

The associated site is currently in the final stages of completion, but we
are now looking for crew.
