Most people started with morrowind, oblivion moved with the next generation and everyone seems to love skyrim.
However, some of us find the DOS classics and their extensive worlds quite enticing and that's why I though it would be a good idea to create an open adventure with the atmosphere of these classics

-Because arena and daggerfall are early installments, they suffer from some weirdness in their lore compared to following titles. Therefor the role would be relatively lore friendly as to accommodate some room for inaccuracies
-The story would be character driven and event driven. Combat is not the focus, although there'll definitely be a lot of quarrels, and therefor the characters' skills and abilities should be chosen for narrative purposes rather than survival
-with this said, each player chooses a race and a pre-made class and acting accordingly will be able to follow the main adventure or go whenever they want in Tamriel
-I would take a more passive role as a game master controlling the npcs and events rather than participating myself

How does it sound?

I began to play Daggerfall and Arena but quit because of the lousy combat.

Shame that.

But I like to think i still have a good amount of knowledge on the lore so would i be able to join?

Of course, but we need more people

Indeed...

I'm in, I started with morrowind but I just messed around in it and oblivion. Skyrim is were I had gotten serious. So this dagger fall story will be cool.

Nice, you may want to check daggerfall abilities to get an idea of what were the differences, but as the OP says it is going to be quite forgiving

I'll have to check it out, but I'm playing the same type of character from skyrim that I nearly 100% the game. She was a boss ass bitch.

I liked the idea. I will need - obviously - to read more about the story set at the time. In addition, I declare my interest in participating.

Well, anyway, I've started my basic reading about the events of Daggerfall in the unofficial wiki(if it helps, here is the link).

as I've said, it is going to be rather lore friendly

Remember that we are going to travel around the Illiac bay and we might or might not, be conscious of the events happening, just like how in the game you have to option to follow the main story or not

In any case, you guys will start wherever you want in the Illiac bay, just try to make a backstory that puts your character in it

Alright I have a good idea of how to make my character.

Always join a Mal RP

oh hi!

good to see you here, grey

I was womdering, how are you going to deal with The Warp in the West?

Our adventure begins before that happens, when the 44 provinces still exist

Ah that would make sense

Bumping this rp in hopes of getting more people

Is 5 not enough to start?

Anyway I'm awaiting and preparing ideas for my character.

Normally yes, but since I'm going to take a passive role then we might want one more

However I thinj that Ill have the OOC done today, lets not delay it further

It seems interesting, but I have never played Arena or Daggerfall...considering that I don't even have a computer so I can get a copy of The Elder Scrolls Anthology in order to play those two...
