(PREFACE: I have an identical thread open in the casual section, but I feel, since I want this RP to move at pace, before the Halloween-novelty wears off, I would be remiss in not offering it to the advanced section as well.)
Hello,
A couple of years ago a participated in an incredibly short, yet captivating RP set in a blighted version of the Elder Scrolls universe. It effectively used a setting accessible to a wide audience, TESV Skyrim and its starting area of Riverwood and Whiterun, and fused it with the familiar campy-Halloween trope of a perma-dark world riddled with the undead, overgrown only by wiry branched, decaying trees and smoking moss. It had a really unique atmosphere, and I was really sad when it petered out after only a few posts.
So, I'm hoping a few of you will help me revive it, at least in some form. The RP I'm proposing would take place in Skyrim, 4E 201, but before the beginning of Skyrim's main quest, and would include a small group of adventurers searching for some deus-ex-machina to help them drive off the Apocalypse. An archetypical dungeon crawler. I have had a few ideas for the setting, so I'll leave a list of them, and see what potential participants think of them. Thanks for taking the time to read :).
Potential Setting:
1)
2)
3)
I hope, even if you don't like TES, this RP can still pique your interest. TES is a very accessible universe, one anyone with a vague understanding of fantasy will understand, yet it is, too, incredibly rich. Please, if you love fantasy and you love horror, consider posting your interest.
Thanks
EDIT: Oh, and please do let me know which of the three settings you think I should go with, and which you'd really not want to play, if any. I'll pick the most popular one.
