A realistic fantasy roleplay

[TimasheTiger]

I'd be interested.

My nation would essentially be a guild of pirates with no real involvement in the squabble of nations and their warfare. I'm simply there to make things interesting.

[Hael]

I'd be interested in this.

[Isoshi]

I've got some interest in this.

[Yog Sothoth]

I'm interested

[HazmatMedic]

Well, I'm planning on joining. Count me in.

[ViKtoricus]

Alright everyone...

As far as "stats," what exactly do you consider as stats?

I will want the players to give a good estimation of their population, number of warriors, etc, and every post will be equivalent to one-month's worth of events in the game world, which is equivalent to one week's worth of events in the REAL world...

Does that sound gamey?

[MouseKing]

Sounds fairly standard. I wouldn't consider those "stats" per se, although they are a statistic.

[SyrianHamster]

Yeah I believe that's all standard procedure. As for combat resolution, I've always been fortunate enough to play with people who accept realistic outcomes given the situation. The few stalemates I have observed were settled by the GM.

Anywho, is this allowing custom races, or are the usual suspects in place?

I was thinking of directly using the Forgotten Realms wiki for the races.

All must be humanoid, and no spider pets if you're drow. That's all I require.

These are your options (note: they are all and must all be human or humanoid!): http://forgottenrealms.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Humanoids

[ViKtoricus]

One thing that I want to remind everyone...

Although we will be picking our races from the Forgotten Realms wiki, sticking to their lore or physical descriptions is not necessary.

I myself will have bigger, stronger version of orcs.

OOC coming soon and I will PM all who showed interest.

[HazmatMedic]

Damnit! I wanted flightless Seraph's...

[Lone Wanderer]

Also interested. Expect a nation of gnomes.

Sounds fine to me, I look forward to seeing what becomes of this RP.

[HazmatMedic]

I think, though, having a set time-period-per-post limits gameplay heavily. I might have a ton to do in one month and absolutely squit the next

Aww, but spyders are kool.

Well I guess I might be going with Yuan-ti or goblins after all.

On that note, I renounce my interest in this RP.

Enjoy the game.

[Hael]

I'm no longer interested, in the case of using races from something else.

[TimasheTiger]

I'm out

[Yog Sothoth]

why are you guys dropping out?
