This world is huge, there is probably room for well over thirty players in this rp.Anyhow, I want to be on that small isolated land mass north of Aaron's satyrs.


I figured it best to ask, since not all GMs want their RPs to have those kind of numbers. A bunch of people in a nation RP can get rather unwieldy.

Drop outs usually weeds down the numbers significantly.

Also, this world/planet have a name? Or the continents?

Well if the one landmass we're all on is comparable in size to Asia, then I'm close to the size of Cambodia, and Monkey about the size of modern-day Kazakhstan.

Thanks Dinh AaronMk, I appreciate the input. Especially referencing Kazakhstan,

I'll shrink it down a bit but with all the nations so far apart, I'd venture to guess that nations actual influence over territory is far more vast. if that makes sense.

I'd suspect culturally at least in that case. And marriage I think is one of the more common ways for kingdoms like this in such a setting to have influence over another. After all, if you're the king of somewhere and your wife is the queen of another place, you do effectively have a personal union.

Ok, I shrunk the size and population to match.

With that said, while I was re-sizing the nation, I have some ideas for NPC nations around me. (assuming no one buddies right next to me) People that hate my nation in every way.

One idea was a nation of bastard elves that want to retake the region. mmmmmm

In my opinion NPC nations are kosher. But we should wait for the GM to do something and we can start IC before we start building and placing NPC nations around us.

Oh I know, It's just ideas that are going through my head. At this point no one is even accepted yet.

And you sir, are the double post king right now.

Yes, this forum needs a good fixing.

I could have backed the URL to the forum's portal and refreshed it there. But sometimes I don't know if that goes through, and some days I'd rather be sure. Or I'm just too annoyed to do that.

Hey, just thought I'd mention this is my first NRP. I've been doing regular RP for somewhere around 6 years now but this is new to me; so I might ask a stupid question or two.

That being said; is it ok to have your nation placed next to someone else's? I wrote up a NS and somebody picked a spot next to the one I had planned to use and I wanted to know if I could still place mine there or if I had to move it and rewrite accordingly? You know, out of courtesy.

Generally there isn't. After all, the closer two nations are the easier it is to interact. Though you may want to discuss some mutual history, and just make sure there's no major glaring issues there.

Pretty much this.

You can have two nations nearby. But in my opinion it's basically a sin for there to be no consistency. In my opinion, a Japanese-like nation spawning from the same region as an Arab, Mesoamerican, or European state is very off.

If you get to a white page, chances are it went through. I've never posted something, questioned whether it went through, and ended up not seeing it after first submission; hence why I never actually end up multi-posting anything even with the site errors. Really people need to just not resubmit or click refresh on the white-error submission page.

Which brings up something I'd like to mention; Waether is a dichotomy of Western European and Japanese motifs, with the former Asanko region being a Japanese-like location. This means that either by precedence of submission or for the sake of consistency the area to the Northeast of modern-Waether is the origin of our setting's "Japanese-expy's". I question all of you whether or not this is okay, if you wish for this to be changed or removed altogether. I don't know if anyone else had planned on utilizing Japanese motifs.

I have the worst timing. Tomorrow, I have to go to Spain, where I won't be able to get internet.

Dinh AaronMK, you've been both vocal and helpful. Would you be willing to take over as temporary GM until I get back?

That's going to differ between nations.
