Welcome citizens of the Guild to our adventure
The Idea
Hello and welcome to our intrest check. Please sit down, read and enjoy a complimentry digital cookie. We are back with a new offering for the Guild's good citizens.
Coming off the successful completion of SOL CITY CHAPTERS ONE AND TWO, we're looking at doing it again with a THIRD chapter. To the uninitiated, our game follows a familiar tone and concept to what you may have seen or participated in before, but with a more focused and involved approach from the GM Staff. It’s simply a game of everyday people living out their lives in a fictional/fun city setting. Drama, action and romance bring the world to life how you want it to be. Creative freedom is something we believe in heavily and feel that it was one of the main reasons for our success in the previous games which can be found HERE and HERE.
There IS an over-arching plot line to the game, however it is constructed in such a way that allows players to involve their characters as much or as little as they wish without having to read any of the previous chapter. Naturally, there will be unexpected twists and turns to spice things up and keep interest and membership flowing. However, we want this to continue to be a growing community project that continues to bring our fictional city to life. Thanks to a vested group of Guild members, we are fortunate enough to be able to look at doing this again and continuing in that goal.
If you have an idea, we are always open to suggestions on how we can best tailor our game to fit the players and make things work for everyone. For example, player made locations became a real hit in the first chapter along with our easy-to-use MAP that gave the city a sense of time, direction and immersion.
We want you to know that we’re committed to sticking with the game and if you decide to join then know that we would like a commitment from you as well. We’re not asking for a blood oath here, but if you wish to join, the main thing we ask is that you please consider a long-term approach for your perspective character rather than just a single scene that you may be envisioning that lasts a few posts and then fades. Our last games lasted 500+ posts each over the course of two years and each one completed at planned endings.
Welcome to Slice Of Life (SOL)- Done differently. We made mistakes and successes along the way, survived the Great Guild Lag and more.
Most importantly: We never gave up.
So, if you want to join or have any questions please drop us a line here. It is appreciated.
The City of Sol
SOL CITY is the largest city in the Northwestern US in our fictitious universe, taking the place of Seattle, the surrounding geography and even parts of British Columbia. Bright light and shining Sol City gained its name from being a beacon to early travelers and to this day, still draws the young and adventurous alike.
Influences are drawn far and wide with ideas from North America, Canada and Asia. Both player and GM driven plots bring the city to life for whichever route you choose to take.
Comprised of 29 different locations, neighborhoods, public buildings, pubs and dives, the City has grown from its original concept. After Chapter Two we expanded into a list of original radio stations, a newspaper and player-created brand-names. In Chapter Three we hope to continue to expand and evolve with the players that choose to join us on this fun story.
So explore, enjoy, start anew and make your mark. The city awaits…
