Last-Update: 2002Nov18 Keywords: free, Magic&modern, open-ended, freeform, email, rpg Description: Hello! First, a warning -> Everyone who wants only a strategy RPG shouldn't go on, it won't help them. I like Story, so this RPG -is- a story RPG ;) Sorry to those wishing for different, this one is, as said, none. As the tag suggests, I am here to advertize a new PBEM, called Aleshia, named after the world it is set in. It is neither a uptight serious or downright extreme comedy game, it is rather like a mixture of the two. Set in a world quite resembling our own, yet with great differences - magic is there and known! Characters to be plaid range from downright serious and gloomy Mage Apprentices with a terrible past to a, well....weapon fetishist young woman (yes, there is one. Someone made one like that. Fear her. She's dangerous ^^ ). Again, the mood will feature both, the grade depending on the players. Obviously, this RPG deals rather with interaction and not combat(although it has some). It is not based on any P&P RPG, has no stats altogether(for I find stats too limiting and dice rolls uncharming) and thus is solely based on the writing skills of the active players - so please, if you tend to write "l1k3 t15" all the time, you might consider not to join :) No offence intended, but a more serious approach to writing in general is appreciated ;) But as said, its not a downright extreme serious game all the time, but it -does- have a plot. It will take a while to develop, but its there, lurking ;) Link to the World Description: http://www.lodoss-island.net/Aleshia/WorldDes.html How Magic works:(nooo no dice required or something) http://www.lodoss-island.net/Aleshia/MagicDes.html Link to the Character creation notes: http://www.lodoss-island.net/Aleshia/CharacterCreation.html JOin Page(with rules(most of which are common sense really) and profile to be handed in): http://www.lodoss-island.net/Aleshia/Join.html And finally, posting shedule: Atleast once a week. Appreciated would be two to three times. If everyone is fast, more would be allright. Posting lenght would be one, two paragraphs or more. No oneliners, its terribly boring to read postings like: "He went up the stairs" But you will know that already :) faithfully waiting for a few souls interested in the concept...
