[PBEM News] Southern Vampires? From: myoung4771@yahoo-dot-com.no-spam.invalid (furabo) Date: Sun, 23 Jul 2006 03:05:17 +0000 OK folks, here's an odd one. I've been thinking of running a game of late based (perhaps loosely) on Charlaine Harris's "Southern Vampire" series of books. I'm not sure how popular these may be among role-players, but as a former native of the South, I'm enjoying them immensely. I don't suppose you need to have read them (heck, I haven't even finished the series), but you're welcome to do some amazon.com research or similar searches if you're interested. Essentially, the game takes place in an alternate universe--Earth, but roughly two years ago the Vampires came on international television and explained that they live among us, and now--thanks to the advent of synthetic blood developed by a Japanese firm--are ready to join the world as lawful members of society. The novels take place in Bon Temps, Louisiana. I'm thinking of setting the game in Natchez, Mississippi. In addition to Vampires, there are Weres, Shapeshifters, and at least a couple of Telepaths mentioned in the series. This ad is basically a feeler. If you're interested, drop me an email at myoung4771@yahoo.com. If I get a couple of nibbles, I'll develop further.
